I agree about Poulsen but I don't agree when it comes to Amauri because we needed him as much as we need a better defense now.
When we started the new season, we had the first two scorers and Iaquinta and Palla and Giovinco coming!!
How can you say that we needed him as we needed the defenders we never had neither then or now???
Amauri could do nothing to help our defense or our flanks. And did nothing.
He was a useful acquisition, because he will be our first option in the future.
And only because Treze was not available for a large part of the season. But we couldnt predict that, so the need for Amauri was lesser than the need for quality defender and winger starters! He was not a priority, as far as our planing was concerned. Just like Cassano isnt now.
For ex, we new that Zebina is far more injury prone than Treze and chance are that he will miss one more year, as he did the ones before.
We willingly chose to use Grygera as a starter. Because we have no other player to use for that position. In the forward line, we had three more champions and, possible two youngsters waiting.
If you cant see what were our pre-season priorities you are just a hypocrite. Because we all agreed we need a better RB last year and no one said our problem lies in the two first scorers of serie A.
So now it's 100mln?

It was ~80 so minus Sissoko and Amauri transfer it's 55mln.
and it is nearly 100mil, if you add the small mistakes like paying nearly 7.5-9.5 for Criscito's half and then throw it away just like that in a few months. The salaries we were forced to pay on Andrade, half of Almiron and Tiago, despite the fact, they flopped and we kept them only because of Secco's inability to offload them. The sums we have thrown away like that, for overpriced players and players who were not priorities, if used properly, could give for more optimal results. We had the available sums t build a competitive team. And with a couple more acquisitions this year, we could present a title contender!!
But instead, we sacrificed all that for the momentary gains we never benefited...
