    It's pre-season, this same stuff happens every pre-season.

    He was bad last night.

    But then he was up against Ribery and then Coman, both of whom can blow by most FBs and speed is definitely one of MDS's strengths.

    FB is an issue.

    We have no depth there at all. We need at least one more, if not two, since Spinnazola is out for so long.

    I'm guessing the plan is for Cancelo to take the RB role when Cuadrado gets back, but he was so good as a right wing last night that I don't even know if we should do that, especially since he isn't the greatest defender either

    He's not the greatest defender and we have stockpiles of wingers (Costa, Cuadrado, Berna, etc.). This is partly the reason I was against his purchase.

    Ronaldo, Dybala, Douglas Costa, Cuadrado, Bentancur and Higuain will report to Continassa on Monday for pre-season training. Aldo Dolcetti will be in charge of the sessions.

    Don't know about the Tatt but I think he did his hair after Argentina went out of the world cup

    Ronaldo and Higgy on the same pitch should be interesting.

    Higuain needs to be sold. Scoring goals against the likes of Sassuolo and Frosinone is one thing. He just doesn't show up for the biggest games.

    Is it just me, or are World Cup stars being summoned back to their clubs faster than in previous years?

    For the bigger games last season he scored against Napoli, Milan (3 times), Tottenham (3 times), Fiorentina, Inter. Not too shabby.

    He's past it, man. We should sell him now when we can still get a decent amount for him. Dybala is someone we need to hang out to at all costs.

    I'm sorry for sounding demanding, but he went missing in action during the two games versus Real Madrid. Tottenham are not exactly world beaters. For a guy of his calibre and experience, goals against Fiorentina, Inter, AC Milan, and Napoli are nothing to write home about. I used to be one to defend Pipita, but now I'm done.

    Tottenham topped their group, which included Real Madrid, they beat them to top the group. The man scored a lot of goals in his two seasons with Juve. More than many others, but it’s been clear since day one that a lot of people had issues with him.

    You said "scored a lot of goals". Is it safe to say that he has played his last game in a Bianconero shirt?

    I think it’s safe to say that he’s gone.
