I think the reason we're not signing anyone relevant or spending big is actually Tudor. I dont believe higher management has enough confidence in him to invest 100+ m in the players he wants to work with. He was our 3rd choice manager after all. The company probably sees this year as a leap year, top 4 being the objective and try to re-build for next year.

I also think Tudor will get sacked very soon. I can easily see us finishing 7th this season. This club is so doomed.

Nope. Scanavino and Comolli have both stated that the aim is to fight for the title this year. Not necessarily WIN it, but be competitive. Their words. Not mine.

With the squad we have, the ineffective mercato, the negative aura around this club…yep, wouldn’t shock me if we struggle to make 4th place.

Meh, right before the Atalanta and Fiorentina debacle we were still in the race despite all the injuries we had and despite Motta. That ofc was very flattered and more thanks to the failure of others but still... The team isn't as bad as people make it out to be imo but we need some pinpointed pegs for our holes. Problem is we -again- need to sell first to guard our budget.

Probably the worst summer ever in terms of rumours. One minute we're after some random 32 year olds, then paying 70m for another striker (but can't afford Random Mofo Muani). Whole thing is clueless and not worth trying to follow.
It's only the worst summer ever if you're actually expecting the management to be somewhat competent or thought Jungtoli was good.

I feel like this is pretty much status quo for the club - one of the worst ran clubs on the planet.

Hope springs eternal. I actually thought Junktoli might be good based on his work at Napoli, but he was ridiculous.

Comolli inspires zero confidence from me, so maybe he's the next Moggi.

Chelsea sold Viega for 40m+ bonuses

There's not a chance we would of even got half of that if we were selling him.
I'm pretty certain we'd freeze him out of the squad and release him for his contract for 20 mill compensation.

There is literally no club worse run than us... literally none, even man utd is better run than us and they're a joke.
