FOCUS Why Juventus have already put Pogba's departure behind them
Instead, the talented Frenchman decided to accept the Red Devil’s deal, potentially leaving a void in Juventus’ midfield, especially with Claudio Marchisio injured and Sami Khedira recovering from a knock.
Seven matchdays in, it looks like fans of the Old Lady don’t miss Pogboom at all, and not just because he’s flattered to deceive in a red shirt.
With Miralem Pjanic and Sami Khedira totalling four goals and assists between them, today’s edition of Tuttosport that the Bianconeri haven’t just replaced the Frenchman, but found two players who fit into Coach Allegri’s schemes anyway, two men who aren’t so tempted to go for the big play.
Both players are more motivated, too: Pjanic hasn’t got a starting berth guaranteed, while Sami Khedira is more of a leader. While Pogba was exceptional last season, he had his bad games in 2014-2015.
