    Meh, its BB81, over a decade and he allways just complains against whatever the club does or doesnt do, just stating the obvious to observe that. Plus it didnt take Nostradamus to not care to lose a Gagliardini who didnt show anything above mediocre/decent talent level.



    Anyways we only to say one name to you make you shut up about calling out others.




    Mattia Paro.

    the article is primarily about tonali, but some valid points here. it looks like inda with conte and marotta are the most preferred destination for upcoming italian players, and as discussed on tuz plenty of times, we can forget italojuve for a while. and since our squad is old as shit and we don't have many easily marketable and expendable players, we're struggling to raise funds for our purchases.
    We flew past ItalJuve level with the signings of Higuain, Ronaldo and De Ligt, but it's true about the squad, and even more issues now because of Covid-19.

    What kills a dynasty is lack of forward planning, and it's easily done in Serie A by letting a squad get older and older. Inter did it, Milan did it, leaning on the old champions until they woke up one day and it was over. We've always struck that balance better of recycling experienced players if you think of the Moggi era and then Marotta/Paratici. I just hope Paratici's lack of experience doesn't bite him on the ass.

    It's worth remembering that we have signed a mixture of more experienced players and younger players in recent times.

    2016-17 - oldest: Dani Alves (33), youngest: Pjaca (23), average age: 27.5
    2017-18 - oldest: Matuidi (30), youngest: Bentancur (19), average age: 25.6
    2018-19 - oldest: Ronaldo (33), youngest: Cancelo/Can (24), average age: 27.1
    2019-20 - oldest: Buffon (41), youngest: De Ligt (19), average age: 26.8

    But also if you look at our squad of players 27 or under, this is it:

    De Ligt
    Rugani
    Demiral
    De Sciglio
    Rabiot
    Bentancur
    Bernardeschi
    Dybala

    It's time for Rejuvenation. Honestly, I won't be super pissed if we miss out on Tonali, especially if he's going to cost 50 million.

    @Osman that wasn't a meltdown per se, and yet here we are a couple of years later paying almost double for Kulu who's had all of 12 games for Parma. My issue with missing out on Gagliardini at the time was who we were getting, and if we look at our midfield, I haven't been wrong - it's still a steaming pile of shit.

    Never doubted Paro, clearly mistreated :D

    Anyways Gagliardini is not the first and certainly not the last, Pellegri was another. The only one I can honestly say we missed out on was veratti.

    would have been a bigger expensive pile of shit had we bought gagliardini :D

    We are never going to get Tonali.
    Just look at our past five years of recruitment.

    Players that we track for ages will always end up not joining us.
    Witsel, Icardi, and now Tonali.

    The only player that we tracked for ages and ended up with us is matuidi. And he came after he realize he no longer has the engine to run in french farmers league anymore.

    Paratici is hamstrung by his inability to offload players on high wages and is under growing pressure from fans, who don’t see a coherent plan of team-building that’s visible at Inter.
    Glad it's not just us crazies here that feel this way

    That article is BS tbh. That cocksucker is fawning over Inter and being a sycophantic little bitch, while providing absolutely 0 factual evidence to back his bogus claims.

    Now, I don't trust Tootise, but as things stand we are still undisputed top dogs in Italy. Europe, that's a different matter entirely.

    Ahaha so true. Given the standard of Italian young ‘talents’ these days, having them in your first team just mean that you are a mediocre club.

    Look at every single other top leagues in the world. EPL SpAnish German. There is an unspoken truth that the team with the most Italian will end up fighting for relegation.

    Italy as a footballing nation has failed miserably in producing world class talents that aren’t as fragile as an manbun undercut wearing boy band member.

    I am actually happy to see us being flexible and agile enough to spot international talents instead of being held back by Italian footballing failures.

    The only thing that I’m pissed about is that Paratici has failed to get rid of dead weights in this club.
