What to like:

We get rid of the biggest mistake of the clubs History in Lukaku

We get a very sellable asset in Vlahovic. He is only 23. We did well selling Kai as well.

We get another, different profile striker. Different to Jackson anyway who is our main man atm.

What not to like:

We are in this mess in the first place.

I am concerned what this does to Broja. I would love us to build him up so he can really show what he can do. Vlahovic might well block his future at Chelsea. 

We are buying him because it is a way to get rid of a player. We are not targeting him because he is what the club has identified as a fitting piece to the puzzle.

 

Actually regarding your last point, I have no idea if it is intentional but having worked with Harry Kane and Ricky Lambert, Vlahovic is probably nearer the mould of a striker that Pochettino is used to working with

For a spit second there I thought you’d worked with Kane and Lambert 😆

Starting to make sense now. Torres mark 2.

We need to stay clear.

Disaster written ALL over it.

Meanwhile..

If Jackson & Broja don’t work out we can go for Ivan Toney in January, this is the optimal pathway to take.

We should not in any way make this deal. Lukaku needs to accept its Saudi and that’s the end of it.

I’d take 20m for him at this point but Vlahovic is their problem

You look at Jackson and then you glance at Lukaku and Vlahovic. One of them is pure fire and hassle, two of them are either soft in the head or soft in the body...

In terms of squad and pecking order, buying Vlahovic could be a disaster. I really like the idea of Jackson and Broja battling it out. Vlahovic comes in and you sort of have an elephant in the room once more.

I just read that Vlahovic has injury issues I think it was his abductor muscle , I don't think we really need another sick note

we have enough of them already .

Why is it never a penis-issue? That wouldn't be much of a problem for the football. In fact it could help him concentrate in the football more.

passaggio..

 

Vlahovic ha una forte pubalgia, quasi cronica... La Juve lo vuole vendere per quello, sarebbe da folli far loro questo favore.

This is what I fear as well, Vlahovic won't be happy sitting on the bench for Jackson but Broja is fine to wait for his chance after being injured.

PSG are possibly not willing to invest big money for such a player that has a chronic injury.

Sounds like tough tits for Juventus - they signed a crocked donkey.

 

Ah well, best move on and tell Lukaku it's Saudi or f**k all for him, and it's his own fault.

 

Only a batsh*t crazy lunatic would do this deal.

Haha you can almost count on Chelsea then!

This feels very much driven by Juve tbh, hopefully we’re not stupid.

I hate this rumour so much

I don’t think we need him and having watched him for Juve he’s not better than Jackson!!

It doesn't really matter how good Vlahovic it used to be, to recover from that kind of enjury (in my opinion, the worst for a soccer player, especially couse Juventus made it even worst in last 18 months) so far you need a surgery and lots of rehab. If it was for free, I could think about. For that money, still better to keep Lukaku triing to force him to Inter.

Agreed, Plus it’s a sh*tty biased ‘Serbian’ fan account.

Some reports Vlahovic has turned us down and wants to stay at Juve.
