He's got a point tbh, Juve were quick to snap up old and young alike where a good deal was to be had, just felt pouring some salt over his quite ridiculously saccharin view on things. The truth probably lies somewhere in the middle. Does feel like we're getting more into Mou's wheelhouse with signings like Zlat, Mkhitaryan, Matic, Sanchez, probably Pogba & Lukaku too, as both were already well established when we signed them, and potentially Ozil, over the likes of Bailley and Lindelof. Lots of players at their peak to ensure short term success..
