What a stupid comment by Agnelli, what the hell kind of signals does he think he's sending to guys like Vidal if he's saying that we're now a stepping stone to something better? This guy can't be for real.

And Germany, really? Who the fuck wants to play in the Bundesliga if it ain't Bayern?

Agnelli is absolutely right. If you don't understand what he's talking about, I suggest that you study italian affairs more closely. To cut a long story short: it's a shit country, both politically and financially, which has a great effect on Serie-A.

:agree:

Still doesn't give him an excuse for the decrepit minuscule stadium he's provided for the club.

Just thinking of the place makes me feel claustrophobic

The board has been thinking and attempting an own stadium for quite a while, yet never materialised. blanc and gigli failed in their effords. It was when agnelli came, that a financial plan was made with elkann, the loan, suddenly the permission, and then the construction

Rus, you really underestimate agnelli, he surprises me more and more. He's an very good in getting things moving.

Just watch how our turnover is increasing. not cl or gate receipts, but sponsering and merchandising and profiling. he's doing an excellent job.

I still think he should allow more to be spend on a single player, but i trust he is taking us the right direction

Great interview, and I agree with everything he says in regards to the current state of Italian football.

Changes need to be made. Even though we are clearly on a steady path and are building up again season after season, the mess that Italian Football is in (on and off the field) will keep holding us back. Structural reforms are needed - that stadium law needs to be passed, clubs need to look to modernise their operations and the marketing of the league outside of Italy needs to a complete overhaul, and I just hope these important factors start to happen as soon as possible.

Thank fuck we have such modern, smart and business-savvy people running our club.

Great fucking article.

AA is absolutely spot on. Serie A is nothing but a stepping stone to other leagues at the moment, which is why Cavani, Jovetic and the likes will move on to other leagues in the summer.

We (and to some extent Udinese) are the only clubs moving forward.

As long as the other 18 teams don't do anything with their stadiums, Italy will continue to have a 4th rate league, simple as that.
