They do have a very good squad maybe on par with us but saying that our squad is mediocre to their is nothing but stupidity. The only thing which their squad is ahead would be in attack midfield is on par with ours and we have a superior defence.
And I am not saying that we are going to be scudetto contenders next season even if Aubemeyang any other top striker comes. Juventus is one of the best teams in Europe and
and have been dominating serie a for quiet a long time and it's going to be very difficult to dethrone them. But If any top striker comes we can definitely finish top 3.
He was bought before the Euro, His value came from what he had showed previously. Come on, if Perisic is getting interest at 50mill we're really going to question a proven dangerous creative midfielder's value at 45mill. The fact that he went to Inter doesn't mean they where the only team interested... There where quite a few EPL teams playing around trying to push down the price to 40 and Inter swooped in and paid the 45 Sporting where happy with... Just so you know... his release clause was 60mill...
Again... being realistic... individual midfielders they probably win by a hair... individual attackers they win... central defence we win... wing backs we destroy them... They have better depth then we do... Their issue is the fact that they are a mess management wise... as I said previously they'll be very dangerous under Spaletti.
I never said that our squad was mediocre... We've got a great squad, but a lot of new players...

After 12 months of working together with some of the younger players having progressed a little more, then I would say we could probably fight for a scudetto next season...
again... The aim is CL... And I think that's definitely achievable... Just saying we need to be realistic... we'll likely lose significantly less points post xmas vs pre xmas
