Juve paid 20 mil euros for a 29 yo Vieira and this is hardly a miss of the transfer season. Vieira is a big name in football but he is not exactly a player for the future and has often failed to live up to the expectations as he tends to "take cover" in big games.
I have to agree with those, who think that Van Bommel was an opportunity we shouldn't have missed - a very good player but above all he was available for free. IMO, it is the latter that makes him the "miss of the summer".
