All what Marotta did, was placing a handicap to Conte's chances.
History has already proved it, its just that some ppl are too stupid to comprehend it.
Hint, look at our sales since Marotta came and honestly tell us that he is a good transfer manager.
Remember our primary targets and what we ended up buying?
The players we bought were mediocre and overpriced by all international and objectives standards.
For the money we have spent and the club we arem we ought to have done better.
If the mediocre players overperform, or WC class players underperform, its not on the transfer directors shoulders, as he doesnt train or use them, he just buy them.
So, the more incompetent Marotta is, the more extra credit we ought to give to Conte for achieving great things with inferior material.
Imagine what he would have done with a competent manager by his side...
PS: One of the main reasons, i believe, that we are unable to buy a player like Dzeko, Rossi, Cassano, Tevez etc
is Marotta, they are just way beyond his league...
