And you must not forget that we had no more excuses left this year!!!
We knew of Zebina and Andrade's problems and even more we knew of Camo's problems. We had no excuses any more and we should prevent to repeat the same mistakes that haunted us last season!
Andrade was no reliable enough to be considered a starter, even if he was healthy enough, which was highly unlikely, considering his problem.
He lost a whole season on the bench and his match fitness would suffer.
We should only consider him as a back up!
Amauri was not a priority, beause we already had DP the returning Treze and the "Champion" Iaquinta. Palla and Giovinco would help with the rotation, resting those players for the 3 competitions.
Acquiring Amauri and negletting the issues we had on a starters was another grave tactical mistake, lucky us Treze missed another season...
If we now buy another expensive forward, it will be turned into a strategical mistake too.
And Poulsen, what was Poulsen?
We knew Neddy was getting old, Giovinco's natural position isnt LM, Camo has become injury prone and Marchionni is good for nothing.
We had no reliable wingers and we had to find just one starter besides Sissoko.
One of returning Zanetti, the second chance Tiago and the promising Marchisio, should have been that and the other two could have been used as back ups.
WTF Poulsen added to this team?? Is he so much better than them, able to make the difference here and now?? Is he so much more reliable than them??
Is he much more promising than them??
He was another unnecessary mistake we should prevent from happening, but it did happened in the expense of upgrading our wings (LMs and fullbacks)
Alonso would provide us with far more tactical choice, because of his special skills,
he is a much more reliable and promising player and the only reason we didnt got him is because Secco has failed to get him or our board was too greedy to pay 2-4 mil more to lure him in...
The reason you have invented there is just an assumption, we might use that money for a better purpose, but we might as well waste them on Cassano.
The fact is that our board has repeatedly failed to acquire the players we needed
and our team s has not been strengthened efficiently, despite the enormous sums we have spend. The basis for a future competitive team have not been built and the squad players they acquired had minimal impact and contribution to our cause. These are undeniable hard facts. We can always find excuses and thats what you have tried to provide with your posts.
But the history has always proven, that each and every tactical our board has made so far war a failure and most of the strategical decisions (that affect our team during time) they made, have also failed to make an impact.
(the only positive contribution for our future team, are Amauri, Mannigher and Sissoko and most of them were also badly timed and paid no attention to our priorities!
dogsarecute, i dont know if you are a troll or double account of a member who is afraid to make those claims you do on his primary account.
But if you were following those forums, even before your join date indicates, you would have known that those issues i ve mentioned were extensively discussed seasons/months ago. But our blind board has failed to see them or chose to ignore them assuming the full responsibility for them!
The excuses you made for him, were already abused 2seasons ago, we cannot be fed with that crap forever...
