It's the same spew you hear every year from whomever holds the position of club president, especially when shit is hitting the fan. It's the gentle hand that's supposed to caress and calm you...I don't buy any of it.

Simple formula for that, mr Hustini is...most importantly of all : find a manager of proven class who can be given substantial funds to have the final say over all Incoming/Outgoing transfers. I was one of many who saw del neri as at least a manager capable of aiming solidly for fourth, especially after the first half of the season, in which there were definite improvements over last season. As Marotta, Agnelli and whoever else made the decision to bring in Del Neri must now do, I accept I was wrong. Rather than continue with something broken, those in charge must look at the last few years, see clearly that one of our major failings, since calcipoli, is to manage to attract to the club and employ a world class manager. Success breeds success and failure breeds failure. We are stuck in the latter cycle presently, so the most obvious way to remedy our losing mentality is bring in a manager and players accustomed to winning.

Andrea reminds me of this Indian friend I once had; he owed me money and kept calling me to let me know that he was eventually going to pay. I told him actions speak louder than words, and that seeing is believing. I never got my money. The moral of the story is, unless you back up your talk with affirmative action, then it's just talk. That, and never give money to Indians :p

After our return to Serie A we were still a better than Milan (proved by finishing above them twice).

Now, thanks to our incompetent management and horrible transfer policy we are a 7-8 position team while they will most likely win the Scudetto.
