what would you do when a players is either broken or shitty but earns a super wage?
Which smaller teams would buy him and payhim the same wages we're giving?
So once a player join us and get a certain salary he can only be sold to another big team that can pay for his service.
If you're a 31years old broken player on a 6m after taxes wages which team could we sell him too?
If he was fit to play he'd be a fucking starter for us.

Im one of the few here who doesn’t genuinely hate Tici, but some things are indeed indefensible. I’ll never understand his way of thinking, while in the meantime he signed some good players like De Ligt, Chiesa or some primavera kids.
With Matuidi you just knew it was time to go- but you also knew he’d get a contract extension.
Or Pellegrini, one of the other many strange cases. I wasn’t against back then; Spina was mostly injured, Pellegrini played a promising season at Cagliari and WC U20. The need for plusvalenza was kinda obvious, but the following 2 seasons he didn’t play a single minute in our jersey and all that time we missed a decent backup for Sandro.
And far more really strange decisions besides these ones of course
So either he should get a decent director next to him like the times with Marotta or he should leave.

give him a 3 year contract on 3m-3.5m a season and let him stay next season or loan him out again, it's not like he'll get a better offer out of Lyon.
I really dislike the idea of releasing players for free, there's still a decent chance Costa can contribute on pitch or can fetch a transfer fee next summer around 10m if he has a good season. if that doesn't pan out, we can rescind next summer and the salary paid will be similar, only our books will suffer less.

That’s the thing with him, he’s so enigmatic. When he is fit and gets a run of games he’s an absolute beast (or was) and unplayable. His body is just breaking down.
If the option is to give him away for free or keep him as a bench option for a LW position we have zero depth for I’d opt to keep him. We can’t just keep releasing players because other clubs don’t want to pay for them. At least need to get a couple of first options off gremio- they can produce talent and we need to identify talent before it’s 28 years old
