Good, buyback options with fixed price are better anyway.

The only real reason I could come up with for such a decision is probably tax evasion. The way Inter and Milan in particular did it, were they overestimated crappy and pointless player exchanges.

Don't really see any difference between swapping half the rights to a player and all the rights to a player in terms of the potential for fraudulent over-valuing.

True. Its a crazy decision on all fronts, pretty shocking to read all the reports confirming most clubs agreed on this nonsense.

 

[Ragazza]

I agree with all of you, co-ownership is a unique thing in Italian football that I actually wish existed in other leagues as well.

I wonder why he hates them so much. The guy had the best his career spell playing for them and now every time he gets an opportunity to make fun of them, he does that. And most interesting thing he's cheering for the Old Lady, classy guy :thumbs:

Cos Moratti tapped his phone when he was a player.

 

[Lion]

Yeah, I know.

Still not seeing any compelling reason(s) to get rid of co-ownerships.

If they do it, they need to come up with a proper reserve league. not this under 21 only B.S

Inter Milan (89%) has the greatest proportion of expatriate footballers of 372 clubs measured in 31 top divisions of Uefa's member associations.

it's all in the name really.

Yeah, was thinking that myself.

One way or another, if changes are going to be made that are likely to result in fewer young players being sent out to gain experience, a system has to be brought in where they can gain useful experience of playing against adults.

Hard to criticise a team for being cautious about throwing a kid into their team when he's not had to chance to play against experienced, established players, except in training.

what happened to that talk about inventing B teams.. having a team in serie b where all our young players could play would be more useful than coownerships..

 

[Red]

Haven't heard any mention of it for a while.

It's not an idea I'm too keen on.

 

[zizinho]

its a good idea i think... how many players does juventus have in serie b??? imagine most of them in the same team and loaning the really talented ones to serie a teams for 1-2 seasons or selling them with buy-back options before bringing them back or selling them... that would be a very useful system and we wouldnt have to pay 11M for half of our own player anymore...

why not? If juve B would be in serie B, they'll gain experience against serie B teams (like most of them do now) BUT they'll play with eachother... Imagine a midfielder and a striker getting along very good in juve B in the serie B.. after a year they could make the serie A juve's bench and play together again...

win win if you ask me

 

[Red]

Oh, I thnk it's be good for Juve to have a 'B' team in Serie B.

I just think doing that belittles the league.

 

[petersmit]

one team won't matter that much.... and if there is a Inter B and a Milan B it would be even more awesome.... seeing Inter B get crushed by Juve B would be awesome

 

[JBF]

Pozzo has already forseen it, that's what Watford is for

 

[Ocelot]

B-teams are great for bigger clubs and god-awful for the smaller teams. I want a competitive Serie A and not some La Liga bullshit, so I'm against the implementation of those.

Totally agree. It would severely rustle my jimmies to see a serie B table with Juve B, Inter B, Roma B etc, in the place of the Baris, Spezias and Novaras of this world. It's cheap and tacky.
