Easy to laugh about Boateng now, but he looked like a complete beast for some time.

We used to laugh about Boateng back then too.

Yes, he did have impressive numbers that season. Just goes to show the state of the league back then when the best team's best midfielder was that guy... Even Nocerino was beasting with 10 goals that season (both he and Boateng owed a lot to Zlatan)

Can we apply same logic to asamoah?

But why? Boateng was a pretty good mid...if it wasn't for Injuries and his shitty attitude.

Why Asamoah?

If you say you wouldn't have taken him back then, you are lying to yourself.

Leave bias aside for a moment.

Back then for that weak Juve, maybe. All I'm saying is that Milan team was not better on paper than the top 4 EPL teams. They were probably one of the weakest Serie a champs in a long time imo

Of course they aren't.

Yeh easily the weakest Serie A champs I can remember. The league, imo, is a lot stronger now then it was back in 2010/11.

Boateng was never anything more than decent. Even Pepe can look like a beast from YouTube vids but I clearly remember watching Boateng and he was an average midfielder. He'd have gone to a good team if that weren't the case.

Why Asamoah?

Was good then and is now trash, does it mean he was trash then too?

No, Asa is a player I rated from his Udine days and had two great years here before injuries broke him.

Boateng was never that good but had two seasons where he scored more than usual.

Asamoah got ruined by injuries, Boateng didn't. If you wanna make a comparison, Pato is a better one (tough still flawed).

Reasons are all up for debate, the fact is both had 2 solid seasons and that's it, pato is a class above the 2

That players past performance shouldn't be rejudged to account for their current form

Agreed. I wasn't doing that
