36 goals in 35 Serie A games. That’s all that needs to be said really in response to claims that the money paid for Gonzalo Higuain is excessive. Perhaps it still is, but the fact is that Juve have become an economic powerhouse who can afford to spend that kind of money now.

Keep in mind that some of the other best forwards in the world like Robert Lewandowski, Luis Suarez and Sergio Aguero would absolutely not be available and Higuain was the most attainable and best center forward in the market.

Paulo Dybala

Paulo Dybala is one of the most exciting talents in world football today, and Barcelona have already had an approach rejected early in the transfer market. Dybala has the skill, finesse, and flair to be a future Balon D’or winner and already has 32 goals in his last 68 Serie A appearances along with a bucketload of assists.

Juve had to fight off a whole host of clubs to sign him, and pay Palermo a very generous fee, but considering the money clubs are paying out for young talent it could well turn out to be a bargain.

Here is Juve’s Best 11 for the new season then :
