Well, I agree with most of what you say except I don't rate Gianneti higher than him. He can be the backups-backup but Marotta is a fool for wanting him and Toni. One has had his chances and failed at Udinese and the other's tank is empty. Trust me now matter how you look at it we rely on Del Piero carrying this time for now.
Personally to me FF is the dregs at the bottom of the barrel, so having to go somewhere else and actually pay a team to scrape the bottom of their barrel says a lot to me about our ambitions as a team - and this in particular is what I have a problem with...
The Toni transfer I can kind of understand and support, as he actually is an improvement on Amauri, so he can contribute. But Toni still really isn't the calibre of player we should be looking at
I can't rep you but when I can I will.
Its ok, ill rep you both.

cheers guys!
Some of you say stop bitching as we will get better players in the summer!. I say, I dont give a F*** who we get in the summer.. It matters RIGHT NOW. We need good player NOW!. We need CL as without it, we will be signing players like THIS Floro dude in the summer aswell!..
Exactly. I agree completely. We cant wait until the summer. Right now we are a wounded beast, we've got massive holes in our squad, partly due to bad luck and injuries, and partly due to a lack of sensible transfer activity in the summer. Instead of operating on these gaping wounds we are trying to put plasters on them.
We've go not forwards, so instead of investing in someone that can improve the squad in the future we're looking at short term fixes that will be on the bench as soon as Iaq and Amauri return - this is not the way to progress as a club.
The fullbacks have been an issue since 2006, and I dont think the management have the foresight to actually address the issue at all considering we haven't been linked with a fullback at all for the last 5 years.
If we dont repair these holes now then we wont make the CL places, there is no doubt about that. If we dont make the CL then we wont be able to invest in the summer and it'll be years of considered investment until we get back in. If we invest wisely now on players that will actually improve the level of the squad as a whole (LB, RB, CF) our absolute worst case scenario will be that we miss out this year, but then already have solid foundations for next year... I hope we pull out of this deal and do the right thing
