    Analysis of Summer Transfer requirements

    Who cares what Lippi wants. Lippi has declared that he wont coach a FC again and he has cut any kind of ties he had with us by "releasing'' Ferrara. Lippi hopes to coach the NT until he permanently retires. I believe that he will advice Ferrara, the rest is a fool's hope!! Now, as for Ferrar...

    You said the same thing last season, after Mellberg and Poulsen were announced... Apart from the best transfer this board has ever made (Diego) Thats exactly why i believe that this season is a failure. Instead of fixing our defense, we have signed a finished free, defender and we have spent...

    Since the Dagostino deal is bound to happen, i hope that we will no focus on our defensive issues, at last!!! If we dont, our mercato was a failure...

    :agree: Just like we did not for the past 2-3 years... We will never learn, Zebi wont be available and practically, Grygera will be our starter for a third consecutive year... We want to build a competitive team, with starters like Grygera?? We are stilling ignoring the defensive issue. Our...

    Dont forget, the root of our problems, is still our defense. Forget more the subber CMs and forvets and concentrate on our defense!!

    Analysis of Summer Transfer requirements

    I dont really rate Poulsen as a DM, he is def not able to compete with a Sissoko like DM for that spot. Esp in the EPL, where physicality is a very important issue. In Spain, even a balerina class Tiago player can be a "washing machine". Poulsen is quite useful mostly because of his passing...

    Analysis of Summer Transfer requirements

    They faced some injuries, but at least they have some decent starters (Fabregas, Rosicky) and some promising players on the bench. (Denilson, Diaby) If they deliver their promise, they are certainly more valuable than Poulsen!! I dont see them as collectors of mediocrity, like we are... On the...

    Why we dont need him more than Arsenal needs a player like Poulsen?

    Analysis of Summer Transfer requirements

    I am asking that because i believed that we are stacked up with DM/CM/DMs and no matter how anyone can see Tiago and his possible use, i believe that we have at least two players available for that role. For ex, if you see him as a DM, we have Sissoko and CZ as CM, we have Marchisio and...

    What Tiago was supposed to do, that Marchisio, Diego or Poulsen cant do?

    Analysis of Summer Transfer requirements

    We are going to keep Poulsen, he is determined to stay and he will. Our priorities are to offload the dead wood and get as better starters as we can. Poulsen is an average sub, he had an average year, i dont think that there are any chances to sell him. Remember how much we struggled to sell...

    LB = Criscito, DC, Moli, no luck there... RB= must buy!! No 1 priority IMO and sell Zebi to EPL team CB = :cry: we got Canna and we are overcrowded now... CM = Why would we need another CM??? We can never have enough CMs i guess, every freakin year we are buying new CMs. Enough with it!! DMs...

    Analysis of Summer Transfer requirements

    Some EPL teams, they always find some money to spare and they have shown interest to him in the past... Me too, thats why i said that bringing him was a strategical mistake... Yeah, thats what i am expecting to see too, esp if we are getting rod of useless players, like Knezevic, Andrade and...

    Analysis of Summer Transfer requirements

    I expect us to spend about 10-15 mil more and i think thats enough to buy a good RB! Now if we sell Zebina and raise some funds for that, thats even better. Grygera, Mellberg and Salih can be used as depth. So if we bring a quality RB, Zebi is an extra luxury we wont need. The key to extra...

    Analysis of Summer Transfer requirements

    Two starter defenders are a must. If Criscito wont come we need to bring two more and this doesnt count Canna too. If we bring back Criscito and consider that we paid nothing for him and Canna, then i expect a generous investment for a quality wing-back!! No more cheap/free defenders, we need to...

    Analysis of Summer Transfer requirements

    Personally, i would be pleased with that, as long as i dont see us throwing money away, like we have done for the last e years... Not having money to buy is one thing, having them and waste is totally another thing...and that was the main issue so far and where our transfer policy has FAILED.
