I cant see that happening.
My point was that we're probably gonna go through a phase of motivation problems, probably a change of manager and most likely not winning that scudetto for 1-2 seasons at one point. Not because we haven't prepared for it (like zizinho explained), but because no matter how well you prepare for it it's kinda inevitable everytime you rip off the roots and plant new seeds.
IMO the spine is why a team like Juve succeeds, and a team like Inter is losing. They've spend hundreds of millions on great players, but they turn to shet without a Buffon and Chiellini to keep the group focused. That's why Milan fell and United fell aswell. You can buy the worlds best players and managers like United, but you cant really buy a ''team''.
Way to cherry pick that particular sentence and not include the one that followed just so you could post a funny gif

we have too much money compared to the rest to drop like Milan did. We may not win every year but i'm optimistic to say that we'll always fight for top3-top4 position.
Let's see what Inter will do. And someday or someway Napoli can't keep replacing goal machine scorer strikers one after another.

exactly what i thought. I mean it's basic to keep your legs crossed when doing that.

After saving everything Napoli cold throw at him, he lets that go in
Yes, well I didn't mean that. Good we're on the same page. ''There's bound to be a Milan-esque downfall. Not as bad, but some kind of most likely.'' meant that after losing our core we'll most likely drop a scudetto or two, have a manager change probably and have a bit of trouble adjusting to some new players. That's it. Happens with every great team at least every 5-10 years.
But like it has been said earlier, I believe the downtime will be short due to the excellent management, scouting of new players and visions for the future the board has with all these new marketing campaigns and bold transfer choices.

The biggest problem in the future is finding a italian core (4-5players) strong as the ones we had till now.
Next year we'll lose Buffon and Barzagli. Chiellini is going to be 33yrs old soon let's say he has 2 more season on him? considering all the problems he had in the past 2years.
Marchisio as well has 3 at best 4years but not as core member anymore.
as cbs we got Rugani and Bonucci which are reliable. We'll need to find a Goal Keeper as i don't think Neto it's long term solution.
Sadly so far i don't see much of italian talent in the midfield Verratti aside.
I like Baselli and Benassi. Galliardini looking decent at Inter but that's it.
While in atk positions Berardi,Bernardeschi and Belotti are getting better and Better. But in those positions we're filled with talents-big players.
Anyway we need a new Buffon and I don't see one atm. Donnarumma looks like Scuffet 2years ago before Udinese had its revenge on him for refusing a 15m transfer to Atletico Madrid.
If you ask about post Buffon I'd pick Oblak or De Gea but then again they're not italians.

well and why woudn't we keep on winning then?
Since first Conte we changed 3 teams. Think about it. We often changed our attack team almost every 2 years.
We sold Vidal-Pogba and Pirlo and replaced with Pjanic and Khedira.
In the years our biggest upgrade was on the flank with Alex Sandro. Before we had the average Evra and the bad De Ceglie
