i was just quoting YOU... so how do you come blaming me for the comparision of sheva with kneze ? you did it in the first place...
first off, comparing players with different positions is always difficult but just watching from the economic standpoint there is a realistic chance that knezevic is a better signing than sheva
the only thing to happen for this is, shevchenko not gaining his former form and not playing ... so milan will have spend a bunch of money on a player they wont be able to sell, because everybody knows that if he does not regain in milan then he probably nowhere will.
milan will have spent xxx € (don't know what his wages were in chelsea but i guess it is more than knezevics wages+fee) on him, while we might play knezevic in 2 not very important games (perhaps the coppa italia) and will have spend few money for a 2 decent games (what is ok).
O, arguments at last!! Love them
I m not calling you insane for comparing them, we bought one forward and Milan brought 3, so i had to make some comparisons that they are not meant to be compared on the field, but they are meant to be compared as footballistic values.
But i am calling you insane for comparing Sheva value, to Knezevic.
I couldnt find a sane argument to justify that.
Glad you brought, even if it isnt objective, it proves sanity at least, so all hope is not lost, we may be able to reason in the end.
Again speculation, we cant judge by speculation, every player has a certain value
and this is what we can judge atm
Sheva might become the best scorer and Knezevic might become the new Andrade.
Or quite the opposite, Knezevic might become the knew Chiellini and Knezevic the new Ronaldo. But what are the odds? we cant tell!
We will judge their performances after this season ends, right know we are discussing for their current value and potential.
How can we reach a step closer to the most probable scenario?
Judging by the history we all know, judging by theirs transfer market value, as you have said the transfer managers, the ones responsible for this certain job, know better than us and they are the only ones responsible to make a decent evaluation of a player.
So a players value says a lot of things.
We can also judge by the teams and level of competition a players was used to play.
Certainly when someone faces competition from Messi, probably the most on form player on the world, is a bit harder than someone who faces competition from an injured Miccoli, isnt it?
So having a bad year could be tricky if you dont take a close look to the conditions.
We can go down the details, but i sense that the reason of the experts is enough to convince you.
Think of it, if Knezevic had the potential to become as good and as useful as Senderos can become, why would their prices differ so much??
Do you trust or you no trusting your experts?
Thats not my point, thats not how i judge things, but how you do, i expect an objective answer here, but i will not tolerate a turn of your judgments methods only to escape from here!
The economical issue sounds logic, but you forgot smth, Milan has much much more money to spare and we have to be much much smarter to cope,
they can afford to spend more and gamble with more and better player and salaries, we cant, that doesnt change the fact that we compete in the same championship though, that doesnt change the fact that we have to best them, so we can win a title, because its with them that we compete!!
We must either admit that we are not after the same goals/titles, or that we did worse than they did to strengthen our team...
Stop eluding...
