Bullshit, Canna is my fav defender, and we still held that level, I would welcome over anyone else, but I watch Real almost weekly, and he is NOT GOOD, I see him in the NT couple of games a year, and he is NOT GOOD. Experience can only carry you so much, he has lost alot, him playing in Italy with more tactical safety will make him look better, but he is still lacking quite a bit individually. And this defence needs certified quality player that we can rely on for years to come, but after years of signing average players, we now sign a 36 year old? And you say the only reason anyone would have against this because one is biased against the board?
Far from it, if they signed quality players in the other positions, i wouldnt mind having Canna around at all, but I know how this board operate, they will try to sell us that Canna alone is the change we need, and not care for much other upgrade, just stick an aged former great 36 year older amongst a cast of average players and hope things fix themselves. This is the 3rd year under them, slow rebuilding process time is over, its time we really bring quality players to this team (and we arent penniless, they can invest if they prioritize the issue), and there is some upside to getting Cannavaro, a legendary defender, but the main thing is he is past it and is 36 year old, and this club wont bother to fix our problems much other then getting him most likely. And I dont know why its being so easily accepted.
