Give me names and alternatives. Goretzka and Dahoud are both very promising. I'd add Kessie and Bayoko to the list as well. Who else do you have in mind?
I'll give you two. We sold Vidal for 40 mln and the rumored price for Naingollan is around 50 mln figure. You will tell me those are exceptions. But those are exceptions for us, fans. Who would say we would sell Vidal for 40mln and yet we did. While Vidal has had double figures for us for 3 seasons straight and played in CL final with us. Now compare Tolisso to him. 50 mln is still 50 mln. You don't throw it around like it's nothing.

Doubt you've even been watching both play.
Kondogbia has become an excellent player at DM for them since the last 5-6 games while Mario has been consistently good.
If you are not informed about something, there's no need to exaggerate just to make a point.
I didn't watch all of Inter games you mentioned. I watched last half an hour of Inter game against Chievo and they were poor. I think Jao Mario was even subbed off when they had to chase the score. To read that Kondogbia has been excellent is really interesting, I will check his notes later. You say Jao Mario has been good. Khedira has also been good for us, Rincon so far has also played good when given the chance and guess what, we paid 8 mln combined for them. We Paid 30 mln for PJANIC, one of the best players of Seria A since couple years.
Again, you don't throw 50 million on a player like Tolisso just like that. I'm not saying he's not going to develop into a player worth such amount but it's a huge risk. On one hand people praise Marotta for not getting fucked by other clubs while buying and on the other want him to spend 50 mln on unproven players because it may come good.
