I have a feeling Bernardeschi will end up overpaid and overrated in the end. Haven't seen much of him but I was never impressed so I don't know what gets his price so high, but I guess that's just being a talented Italian player. There's rarely any CB whos value is under 15mln and it just gets higher when you move up to midfield and attack. Comparing him and Sanchez would be just silly and signing Bernardeschi instead of him would be kinda retarded cause they are not even close talented-wise. Sanchez would bring instant quality and pump big numbers while Bernardeschi would just be decent with occasional show-up.

I think us being linked with him is for clubs like Inter & Co to waste their money to think they've beaten us because we "want" him. Like the Gabigol & Iturbe scenario. Cack players. They wannk Their money away while we sit back and laugh.

Not saying Berna is "cack" but certainly not worth €40m.

We really need a top quality RB.
Licht is utterly useless with those retard-level crosses. Not to mention he's not even what he used to be anymore.
Alves is great as a short time solution (a la Evra). But we need someone who's pretty good defensively, and more importantly, who has some end product going forward.

You didn't see Alves last night then. HE WAS so bad! SO BAD!

I don't think he was bad per se. Especially in the 1st half, when he had some great one-twos with Dybs. At least one of which led to a great chance.
He's definitely miles ahead of that cripple Licht, though.

Honestly the RB market is as empty as Napoli's trophy gallery. I wouldnt mind De Scigilio, he is hardly worse than Alves

Wanting Douglas Costa over Bernardeschi makes 0 sense. Different levels of talent and performances. In fact, Bayern would likely try to improve on Costa with Bernardeschi if they decide to let him leave. Carlo is a big fan.

Marotta: "Douglas Costa? We are monitoring all the players during the Champions league."

I agreed with you whole heartedly with you on the former until this season, he has been taking huge strides and is not just flash in the pan talent anymore imo. Has has significant impact on most games he takes part of. In many roles too. More importantly more attacking one, last season he played strictly wide winger or wingback, this season he has been unleashed as SS /AMC or inside forward and he grown with the responsibility to attack more centrally.


He will still be overpriced, they all are, but he has shown enough signs he is a talent that may soon become a top player, not just a promise anymore, so getting him and developing him to use for over a decade would be fine deal probably. Question is if it will be worth the hassle and headache of "another rival", self important one.

Since this season he is not a talent anymore, he has been doing everything on the field for Fiore. The difference when he plays and when he doesn't is huge. Its like you say, since Sousa moved him out of wingback he exploded. Playing from that left wing he has been able to impact the game much more going forward.

He will too expensive for us because Fiore will be bitches about selling to us. But for the team that gets him they will have a bargain. The man does everything, never shies away from responsibility in a game, and can play every position upfront.

If Mandzukic wants to go in the summer we'll need a striker to back The Fat One. I think we could look at Simeone, has been looking sharp and promising. Would fit our style.

 

[IlCapitano]

I would be over the moon with Alexis, Tolisso, De Sciglio and Bentancur.

Sell Lemina, Mario if he wants to leave after Alexis comes.

Then next year bring back Lirola, Caldara and Spinazzola.

Spinazzola is a winback in a 3-5-2 would he fit as LB as Alex Sandro back up?

There's always Mandzukic

Well Hernanes left so we need a new Brazilian friend for AS... so Douglas Costa.

Sanchez - Dybala - Costa behind Higuain is a WC attack.

I think we will be lucky if its either or one of Costa and Sanchez. Cant see both happening at all.

Yeah you're right.. well so just Alexis and tolisso.. I'm not greedy

Alexis and Tolisso yes. One is an established superstar, and the other a top talent on the way to becoming something truly special. Bentacur will be loaned out, and I'd rather go for Conti from Atalanta, and bring back Lirola next season as you said. No to De Sciglio.
