Its not a big acheivement at all, far from it. They had him already since he was 13, he doesnt want to leave whatsoever, the only thing they had to do was negotiate a basic salary figure, dot the i's and cross the t's, complete an overdue formality. How is that a big acheivement?
You know whats a big acheivement? If Balotelli's contract was up to run out and we snapped him up from Inter in the middle of their negotiation. That would be a big acheivement, prolonging the contract with someone who had 3 year long contract, and it would be a massive acheivement to even be remotely close to fucking it up, is quite a difference.
I am not someone that is gunho negative about the board, even if I give due critique, but to say renewing Giovincos contract is a big acheivement, is a c;ear testament to having quite low expectations, based on low trust in them.
