And how was that supposed to cheer me up?
Its not meant to cheer you up, its trying to explain why we shouldnt bitch about the mercato. complain about barcelona's dept and still able to spend large on transfers or manshit who got a sjeik as owner so they now totally inflate the market instead.
i'll be with you on that one
This star signing shit is pissing me off.
We obviously tried to sign Aguero (who knows what will happen with that). We were linked with Nani, etc. I guess none of those stars wanted us, or we were outmuscled in the transfer market.
Why are you putting this star signing shit on Rossi?
The big problem here is that Marotta was told to be backed with cash for 2 stars, he made the crucial mistake of telling in the press about 2 WC players.
then, we got like half of what he was promised, and the big spenders outbid us on most of our targets. cant blame marotta for not having the funds for signing and paying aguero.
Look what Joe said, and just forget the "star signing" crap. look at the level of talent our starting 11 has, and then look at how much the linked players can provide an upgrade.
licht brings juve mentality and a fantastic upgrade for rightback. he also was the best rightback on the market we could realistically get.
Ziegler is a nice upgrade for what we got on the left, is decent and wont brainfart like grosso, and he was free.
Pirlo offers expirience and alot of possible creativity for our midfield, and is just better then aqua, who was not bad, but has 0 leadership while pirlo has. they also last as long in a game.
Vidal could come, a player so impressive munchen is pushing for him, luckely leverkusen will only sell abroad. his mentality and skill will make him top 3 CM in serie A. probably next signing after Rossi, and he'll be very nice
Rossi, the best creative forward we can get, and a massive upgrade overall in the attack. offcourse quag was nice, but his stats at villareal dont lie, and he was one of the main reasons why they got 4th.
oh we are doing just fine
