All I have to say is that Cuadrado scores goals when we need them. Fact. Plus he's one of the fastest players in the game.
It does fit our personnel better. Alex Sandro would shine in a 3-5-2 where he could take more chances going forward. Same for Danilo and it would make better use of Cuadrado.
Hmmmm....Sarri picked Dougie over Pogs? https://www.calciomercato.com/en/ne...e-s-negotiations-with-man-utd-for-pogba-22434
BS, Costa said he wasn't even remotely interested in going to ManUre. And I highly doubt the club would care what Sarri wanted if they really wanted to sign Pogba, they tried to get rid of Dybala regardless. Juve couldn't afford Pogba anyway
Such bs. The transfers have all been driven by management with Sarri having little to no say. Remember how Sarri said he could build this side around Dybala? How has that worked out with the club openly trying to move him.
Romeo Agresti is claiming that Mandzukic is in talks of a transfer to another club. Not sure which countries still have a transfer window open. China?

I saw that on the MLS website. Rumor: LAFC eyeing Juventus' Mario Mandzukic? Not that I care about either LA club but I'm hoping he doesn't come as I'm really sick of seeing Over 34 year old' suoerstars in the league.
Nowhere in that article does it say that Sarri ever scrapped a potential move for Pogba because he wanted to hold onto Costa. That Sarri would want to hold onto Costa is believable. That any sensible manager would not be willing to upgrade our major weakness in midfield by bringing on Pogba by sacrificing Costa when we already have numerous other options in attack is not believable. You'll note that not once is anyone actually quoted corroborated anything to the effect that Sarri blocked the Pogba move because he wouldn't let Costa go.
He would look good on the Quakes though. he is the kind of player that could play that style even at his age.
W Well, that is cutting a pretty fine distinction. IF, as the article says, (A) Costa had to be used in the deal to get Pogba because that is what ManU wanted; (B) IF the Club had already decided prior to hiring Sarri that it wanted to move Costa on; and (C) IF Sarri told the club he wanted to keep Costa, thus causing the deal for Pogba to blow up, that is pretty much Sarri blowing up the deal, n'est-ce pas?
Almeyda has everyone playing man to man marking and counterattacking constantly pressuring the opposing goal. Its a good style and similar to when he played for Lazio and Parma but its but some better sides know how to defend it. I'm sure Mandzukic would do well. I'm just so sick of seeing 34 year old's in the league.
I get the point...the issue that I have is there is no direct quote from anyone associated with the club. I just have a hard time believing that Costa would be the stumbling block to the move.
OMG please tell me you got that off Goal.com. It's nauseating watching him and Khedira continue to start for this side.
