Because they have time on their side, and the young ones aren't too promising with too many one-season wonders. Zapata, Hamsik etc all played bad last season.

Lol? Nocerino is comparable to Poulsen, Sissoko and Zanetti? Criscito actually played worse than Molinaro as a LB before he was sent on loan as well.

He won't be. Genoa gave him the chance to perform; we don't.

The other one wasn't.

Another player that succeed while on loan. We need to keep this scheme going.

What can he teach? Molinaro defends better than him and De Ceglie and Camoranesi knows more about crossing.

What about De Ceglie, Criscito, Molinaro, Marchisio, Ariaudo and Nocerino? They played quite a lot.

He will come back if we want him. If Genoa plays tough, we can stop dealing with them which is not good for them in the long term.

I think he will be back. Even if there was such a transfer term, I believe it was there so that if Criscito plays badly this term, Genoa will have the "first option" if they believe he has the potential to succeed.

Molinaro played because he is as you said "harmless" this year. When De Ceglie played on the left, he was "harmful" and left many gaps. As a team with fans crying out for instant success and no experiments, it is clear who will play more regularly and who will play in easier matches to prove...

That "too slow" comment is only for Alonso. Alonso plays for Liverpool and Spain, both of which tend to pass the ball around and play at a slow tempo, sometimes with no effect the whole match. It does not mean the player cannot play faster.

If he is good, he will get the chance. There is the off-season training to assess both him and PDC.

The loan did him good.

Well, that's not too financially sound. If they turned out good then they will be sitting on the bench. There's Andrade as well.

Why do we need Zapata if Criscito or Ariaudo turns out good? Let them try first. If they cannot make the standard, buy Zapata by all means.

Ranieri has no other options. There is a current dearth of world-class leftbacks. Last season there were 2--Evra and Clichy. This season, Clichy deproved along with Arsenal leaving us with Evra.

I think since Genoa has paid money for the loan, we cannot recall him--again, only from my experience in FM.

Just one page back I mentioned that it was the fans who do not want them to play because they did not leave a good first impression. It's not Ranieri's fault. If you do not believe me you can try to dig up the old posts on Criscito, Palladino and Nocerino.

Very interesting. I believe it was the fans who actually wanted him to go on loan to gain experience after the disaster against Roma. At Genoa, he can at least be in the first team while he is behind Chiellini and Legrottaglie right now so loaning him out is the right choice. We are supposed to...
