Regarding Banega, did any of you see the u-20 WC in the summer? Aguero was a demi-god there, unstoppable, but Banega was in several games better and more dominant then frigging Aguero, some of you dont realise what a huge talent he is. Yeah we can give chance to Marchiso and our talent in general, but so far I like Marchiso, but he is good, not more then sentimentalism telling us that he is more then good so far (and stop with the retarded "argumenting" of trying to compare Marchiso and Banega by saying there isnt a difference between Empoli and Boca). He looks classy but we dont know how big of a talent he is until he shows it (for sure one of the better ones in Italy), unlike Gio who is supreme one.
What I'm saying is, yes Banega costs too much, but mainly its due to inflated prices set by the likes of Real, bottomline, if we can get a big talent like him, even if not a priority position (and a gamble), we should try before regretting when the other big clubs does (only talent we signed in ages is the crappy Olivera). What would you think if we got Aguero before he got his big europe move? Plus there is no need for the automatic "Lets have our own instead", because as said they can co-exist. A team/position isnt filled by only one talent.
