Again what's the context, camoranesi was a decent crosser of the ball and one of my all time Juve favourites, ronaldo is and was a different type of player and again had his struggles initially at man utd as he was just a bag of party tricks and little output.
If it makes you feel better I used to say Suarez was overrated at Liverpool then he became one of best strikers of his generation.

Bro the only good answer is yes. Tici was a disaster and set the club back at least 5 to 7 years with his dumb deals
Read again.

Hindsight says his successors were a mistake, but that doesn't mean to say it was right to keep Marotta too. Signing Higuain for as much as we did with no resale value made this club suffer financially, the start of the end was already in the works before Paratici and co took over even if they didn't make the situation any better.

There is such thing as being the victim of your own success

Not once have I seen someone say we should dominate the market like Real. You just made that up.

We can certainly give him time - it's not like we have any real say in the matter. But I personally don't like some of the signings we have made, other than Thuram of course, and I don't like these Tici-esque games with accounting at the expense of some of our younger players. I would rather just keep Soule and Chiesa instead of signing Cabal, Luiz (at that price), and any of these rumored trash wingers we're looking into.

But here we are with the season approaching in another week and we have failed thus far on our main targets of the mercato (Koopmeiners and a ball playing CB). It's not a good look.
We need to keep our loss below 80 m for the last 3 years, but in the last 2 years we are already at 240 m loss. So basically we need a total of 160m profit this year to avoid UEFA sanction

The fact that Inter won 2 scudetti and made it to a CL final under Marotta says that it was wrong to let him go.
That doesn't necessarily translate to the same success if you stayed at a club for so long that you ended up being a victim of your own success.

Take Bill Belichick, he was at the NE Patriots for so long despite over looking what is the most successful period of the franchise, that he ended up being the victim of his own success, some people end up continuing their success elsewhere, but like I said that doesn't mean it was a mistake to let him go.

That in itself doesn't mean it. His successor's results obviously did. You can always make a case for another director instead of Tici to be Beppe's follow-up but Beppe was still doing just fine. And then again rises the question; who.

Both Inter and Roma had to sign similar agreements with UEFA in the past decade.

We’ll be sanctioned 100%. No way we can avoid that.
