I'm just talking about loan with option to buy, and after doing my research those are the only four that he has done that he has purchased the player and they were all done three years ago. People need to stop getting their panties all twisted
People need to get on your level.

We need a natural sub for llorente and Osvaldo can be this for the remainder of the season. It is a loan deal, if he proves to perform well as that sub, then the club can negotiate. I still don't understand it fully, I would have preferred a winger or attacking playmaker of some sort. But Conte obviously wants his 3-5-2 to remain and that is why Osvaldo is joining rather than a winger as first mentioned earlier on.

If the Vucinic and Guarin swap does happen, not sure how inter can mend the relationship between the two clubs after that disgraceful business like behaviour, but maybe Guarin can be that player in an advanced role in midfield and maybe Conte will try something different for a change?

Osvaldo + Vucinic + youth investments and lets call this a mercato.

That's an upgrade. Osvaldo will be more useful to use than a unmotivated Vucinic, Quagliarella and Giovinco.

Guarin is another good midfielder to add to our already great midfield, now we can get rid of Padoin.
How, in any way, is Osvaldo an upgrade to Vucinic?

He's not. He isn't even half as talented as Vucinic. Even an unmotivated Vucinic is better than Osvaldo.

The only way to describe this deal is kicking the can down the road.
