Jay, even you are starting to believe that we'll make a signing while actually spending money. 
This must be a sign!

I was hoping for Mattia Perin but i can not say Diego lopez is a bad GK, he is actually a very good goalkeeper.
Diego Lopez Abate - Alex - Rami - De Sciglio Montolivo - De Jong - Cristante Menez - Balotelli - El Shaarawy thats our probable starting 11, wich aint too bad. We should get into Europa League with that team (4th - 6th place) But each season we have so many injuries, it will be key to keep these 11 players fit. Montolivo is already out for the start of the season. El Shaarawy and De Sciglio are very injury prone, so lets hope they stay fit this season.

Diego Lopez is certainly better than Casillas at this moment in time, given they bought Keylor Navas I'm guessing they had to get rid of Diego Lopez for a couple of reasons..
1)Diego Lopez wont sit on the bench and play second GK to Keylor 2)Casillas is a Madrid legend, would've been a bit disrespectful to just offload him like that + he's used to being a back up as of recently, since Diego Lopez outperformed him for most of the year last season. That's just my view on things.. as far as I know Diego Lopez is still a very solid GK. We should get rid of Abbiati+Agazzi and bring in Perin next year or in January if possible. I agree with Beppe, that starting 11 is good for Europa League, and I'd say we could fight for top three (but really fight), if we add a strong RW like Cerci and a good midfielder we'll be set. If we do, our team will sort of remind me of Rubentus when they robbed that scudetto from us. They had nothing else to play for and while they didnt have many superstars or big named players, they did have a good setup, motivation, a good and inspired coach and most importantly strength in numbers(depth), which we will definitely have next year.

The team looks better on paper than it does in reality, I am afraid. We have a few major issues with our team still to really be competitive.
First, our CBs are both big, slow footed physical type, and neither can cover space well. When we go against those small and quick players who can maneuver in small space, Rami and Alex will struggle badly. Outside maybe Zapata (always a ticking time bomb), our bench is also filled with players of that type like Mexes. Teams will have a very easy time taking advantage of us. Secondly, the midfield is still a mess. Since we are only playing with three midfielders, we really need those three guys to be able to go box to box effectively. The unity of the three midfielders is critical on both offense and defense. De Jong has almost no skill going forward; Cristante is about as unproven as it gets; Montolivo is decent, but not someone who can lead a midfield, same goes for Poli. With this set up, we are going to run into the same problem of having a hard time moving the ball forward on offense and lose out key assignments on defense. Lastly, the strikers are not good fit with one another tactical wise. Balotelli is more of a free roaming type of striker, in the mold of Ibra or CR7 than a pure CF. He likes to change positions from side to side to create problems for the weak defenders. But with our 3 striker set up, he will be asked to play a lot more CF, because ELS and whoever they bring in for right wing cannot effectively play CF at all. I have a feeling we are going to see a lot of ELS and Balo running into each other's positions on offense with nobody in the middle to score the cross.
