Summer mercato 2015 (75 Viewers)

[Klin]

Why are we trying to blame our management for the hypothetical purchase of Diamanti?

No one is blaming anyone. The problem is that certain people would still praise and trust the management if we'd sign him instead of the likes of Draxler, Gotze, Eriksen, etc.

Diamanti is just an example, hell if the board signed molinaro back there will be those who will defend that move still. Basically what we're trying to establish is that there are members who will defend, and sugar coat every move the board makes because they believe they can do no wrong

Yes, but they didn't buy Diamanti. They bought Dybala.

I'd argue that it's not what we need. Just like I think it was unfortunate to lose Vidal, Tevez and Pirlo in the same Summer. But I think it's only fair to give some credit to the people who have built a team that won 4 scudetti in a row and reached the CL final last year.

No what is wrong is to believe that any move the management makes is for the better of the team when it is quite clearly not. The management have as much of a track record of failure signings and moves as they have successful ones

The successful ones far outweigh the failures, Andy. You know that.

If what you said was true, then the likelihood of Juve winning 4 consecutive scudetti and winning a double last year would simply not be possible.

The problem is that a lot of people act like that parent who comes home after their kids worked so hard to clean the house for them, and they only notice the one item that didn't get put away.

Everyone in here bar dolts like Cronios gave credit to Beppe. Everyone. But as you said, you can't sign a player like Diamanti after the recent success we've had and not expect fans to have some question marks. Again, it's fucking Diamanti.

even so the pro marotta supporters are quick to ridicule those who are even remotely concerned and dismiss the needs of this team so long marotta doesn't address it

Signing Diamanti would create outrage, I doubt it will happen. But I think people underestimate the effort it took to sign Dybala. We paid a lot of money for the guy and he's a massive talent. It's not as if no effort was made to reinforce the squad.

And I didn't see anyone who was not excited about that signing. I believe he's gonna be great in a few years. As things stand though, this team needs more than him to be as competitive as last season. That's why such signing don't make sense.

it won't happen because he has already moved to Watford but as I said he was just an example of something that could have materialised, even so with time and options running out we can't just assume we will have a good season ahead based on the last 4 seasons

Eriksen is a Roma supporter btw. Old article:

Yes, I'm a Roma fan

"Yes, I'm a Roma fan. I don't remember from when, but I do remember from FIFA 2001 that I always chose Roma. After Ajax has played, I always check how Roma has done"

I been following the forum for a long time especially the transfer section but this is me first post here.

I have mixed feelings about Marotta. On one hand he has secured some amazing deals like Pogba, Pirlo, Vidal, Tevez, Lichtsteiner etc., but on the other hand it pisses me off that the guy is unable to make us those high profile signing and we always end up with plan D/ market opportunities/ mediocre Italians.
When we sold Vidal and the rumours regarding Draxler and Sandro started to emerge I was really happy. I always been a big fan of both players and I actually thought that it would improve our team a great deal. At the same time I had these bad felling that we where going to miss out as we always do on our primary targets. When rumours regarding Soriano, Ramirez, Vasquez, Shakira or what the f%&K that guys name is, etc you just knew were this was going.
I am all for financial stability and managing our budget, I just have a real problem with the way Marotta allocates our funds. Zaza 18 mio. Soriano possibly 15 mio, Shakira 9 mio.. Instead of getting Draxler for 30 mio. and Sandro for 20 mio. I just don’t get it. We have enough debt in the squad just get the coach the AM that his been begging for to make his team click.

He survived Calciopoli, our four scudetti and our recent CL final without posting once. That's impressive.

DOLPHHHHH WE WERE WAITING FOR YOU

@Jem83 another candidate for the lurker of the year.

I'm just throwing it out here; Eriksen will cost at least €35m. Unrealistic target IMO.

Watching marotta trying to sign an AM and LB

 

[DanTheMan5]

Lamela is not a bad player at all, he is just a bad fit for the team there is a difference

Still not Eriksen quality

Better to be right more often than wrong every season like you have been

Thank you all for the warm welcome. Those comments made me feel all warm inside. Now I have 2 posts in 9 years.

Eriksen is soft as s¤%t. No way he is Juve materiel.
