Well, I for one was ecstatic about his loan, especially with all the playing time he was getting. You guys were right, loans are great because something so detrimental to a players development is injury. You can't get injured when you never play. Send them all out on loan.:andyandbarcelona:
You're right, they all end up like Yago. :shifty:

We should really question not the loan and Bari "neglecting" him, but also whats wrong with Iago that not only was he deemed worthy to be in the stands for the A team, but not even play for their primavera. Unless one childishly assumes its out of malice (too easy to scapegoat), at the end, it clearly doesnt bode well in terms of how high his qualities is valued by those who he trained for (would say played, but never did).

Whatever the case, it was an idiotic loan, just like 99% of them. If we want to conclude things after this, then give him boot without the benefit of the doubt. Who really gives a crap anymore. This club never learns from its mistakes.

Osman's post thoroughly demonstrates the problem with loans. He's using the opinion of folks who have no stake in the player whatsoever to evaluate his future. The coaches at Bari know they are going to lose the player either way, whether he plays well or not, so there's a sort of moral hazard here where the player's best interest is not respected.

People think this is a great scenario for a youngster? Folks believe that we should let counterparties decide the future of young players, like they have some sort of authority in the matter, or can do it better than us?

It's fucking unbelievable the idiocy I see in this crap.

And didn't played for a half a year (in Baris Primavera) so hey lets start him in Juves First Team.
He didn't play for half a year, yet landed straight on the squadlist for the Chievo game. I don't think his non-playing at Bari is a very good reflection of what the boy can do.

And yes, we have alot of injuries, but surely there are other players who played the whole year in our Primavera who could've made it before Iago, if he weren't good enough.

You know Andy, of all the posts you have made regarding loans and youth...this is probably the most well versed and thought out simplicity that people need to read. Loved it....

It honestly makes sense when a club knows they will lose the player either way back to his homeclub. That is why so many are trying to milk us for these co-loans and we both know how those turn out.

It just doesn't make sense. If you want a job done right, you have to do it yourself. That's what folks here fail to understand.

Not even. Name one player that we have actually benefited from these loans or co-ownerships.

Iago never played.
Gio never plays with us, regardless of his time at Empoli so point being all his time spent on loan makes no sense whatsoever.
Marchsio maybe but a heavy reluctance to agree with him because he was thrown into the mix by Ranieri due to injury in our midfield area.
Ariaudo will only be used as a bargaining chip.
Lanza doesn't want to come back.
Paolucci did hardly anything while away.
Ekdal is going to be pawned off in another deal for some player.
De Ceglie's experience at Siena was useless, he does nothing for us anyways. Only plays because of injuries.
Criscito :sergio:...look how well that worked out for us.

~One player that has benefited? Anyone?
