i agree. We all are pretty hyped up about giovinco and we all are looking forward to his performances, BUT there's a difference in being a talent, and being useful to the club. It's obvious that 500k is not much for someone who's supposed to be a future bandiera. But on the other hand; if we start throwing around with our millions, there will come others knocking on our door and every next best 'skilled youngster' will ask the same. Imo, those 500k are fine, because as far as i've understood, it will be 500k the first season, then 1million the next, then 1,5m etc... It's clear that there are talks going on because every party wants to take the best out of this, it's just a normal process. Give it time. I doubt there are ANY serious problems with him or his manager concerning his contract. Everything will be fine. Our 'problem' with seba's contract is very different from aquilani's problem with roma. They seem to NOT BE ABLE to come up to his demands, because of their salary cap and financial limits...
I see no problem whatsoever. Let this guy perform, then we'll all see what he's worth. If he's really that wonderkid everyone (including me) wants him to be, well then pay for his performance. If he's just the decent 'over-average' kid, make him earn his salary!
