Doesn't it make you at all sad to see the disconnect between the game and the modern sport? The same game played by barefoot children with empty plastic bottles is also played out on the world stages in huge stadiums worldwide. That's beautiful.
Here I am in Uruguay and the best friends I have here are united by a love of football. It was the same with many of my best childhood friends back home. You can go anywhere on the planet and make some friends with a ball and a bit of space. This game is a true gift to our planet.
The grip of big business is distorting that idea to such an extent that even giants of the game both in terms of sporting achievement and financial backing such as Juventus can't compete.
It's exciting to watch but look at prices of tickets, jerseys even boots and footballs themselves. It gets uglier when you consider the salary of those who actually make those $100 shoes, and what they likely wear on their feet.
As I said above I can't help but watch but seeing a beautiful sport die. Can you honestly tell me you don't care at all?

Bernadeschi can play CAM. Why does nothing you post ever make sense?!
Bernadeschi might be able to play there (I know, I'm suggesting him for every position....).
I wouldn't either. Maybe he's saving the money for a future war chest when Serie A finally starts becoming attractive again?

Probably settling payments of previous players to keep our accounts in the black while still bringing in good reinforcements.
Sounds good to me to be honest, but I wouldn't hold my breath for a huge signing if I were you.

Why is this killing the sport though? Air Jordans have been extorting the kids without money for forever but in the end anyone in America can play basketball. All you need is any form of ball and find a hoop. Same with soccer. It will always be played by the kids on the street. 300 $ or 120$ 10 years ago for top boots 10 years ago doesnt effect the kids playing in the streets in Brazil. Do you think Messi was good because he had the best cleats? Dont pay attention to the prices because in the end the money is being spent and at some point where do you want it to go to? It should go to the players and the clubs and thats where it seems to mostly be going. Ronaldo and Messi and Neymar deserve every penny they are making IMO
