Juric will end up in a medium-big club before long. Doesn't get the same hype as Italiano and Gasperini, but did really well with a non-existent budget at Verona and seems to have carried that on at Torino, impressively solid at the back. Also won promotion with Crotone in 2016.

People will sometimes point to his stints at Genoa but honestly, unless your name is Ballardini you're not getting anything done under Preziosi.

Glad to see Venezia are becoming competitive. Hard to imagine a scenario where Cagliari stay up.
it's weird to see Cagliari struggle a lot so far. they have quite decent squad to stay in serie A tbh. they have Pedro, Keita Balde, Pavoletti, Nandez, Strootman, Godin, Caceres, and Cragno. probably their biggest problem is coach. or Dalbert :ROFLMAO:

Toro vs Rube. Valeri the referee.

Hopefully Toro can take atleast a draw, they have been reliable lately, just like Verona last season under Juric.

Usually you get what you are willing to pay for. Jube has 30m for Locatelli, they get a Locatelli, it's paying off immediately. We has 0m budget, we overpay (salary) for a mediocrity from Milan.

Same mistake if we are cheap enough to extend Vecino next season.

Isn't it a 2 year loan with 25m option + a further 5m for certain conditions? I feel even Inter could have financially made that deal, I just feel Inter would not have been given such an opportunity. 30m for Locatelli is a steal.

Thats what I thought at first. But I think Locatelli has seen himself at Juve, already has personal agreement.

and also Inter has decide to go with Hakan.

fuck Sassuolo who gave up Locatelli too cheap for Juve.

There was no chance for another team to get Locatelli. If you check his posts on social media about the move you will realize the guy is a Juventino. Once Juventus were interested it was game over for everyone else. Similar case with Barella who rejected everyone to join Inter.
