the winter crisis arrived two month to early this year ...
That could be true, hopefully. But we have created a tradition with our post x-mas winter crisis. And there are several reasons we suffer from her each and every year, since the Capello's era.
The reasons are both psychological and physical (satiaty, lack of focus, accumulated fatique based on our summer training preparation,
release or increase of pressure on domestic league and Europe etc)
There are many parameters that affect us and create this phenomenon
and i have reasons to believe that our first crisis have had some other causes.
I m still expecting to see the winter crisis, when these conditions return (all or a combo of them),
which is probably expected a bit later this year (probably when we will get eliminated from the CL and reach at the top of the league in serie A)
We might as well skip them, if the parameters scatter away from each other and face them one at a time.

Maybe because Amauri is 10x the player??
Not quite 10x , he is better, for now. But the Hunter hasnt reached his age yet, hopefully, we wont regret this decision...
Seriously, doc, if you could turn back time, would you rather pay 20m for Huntelaar or 15m+Nocerino for Amauri?
If your choice is Huntelaar then nevermind, but if your choice is Amauri then i really don't understand why did you have to write the quoted sentence.
99.9% of the members here prefered KJH to Amauri (proudly saying that i was among the 0.1%

). Many of them will now choose Amauri.
This tells a lot about something that should have been clear to everyone, and that is: people who are getting payed to do the job (scouts, managers, directors) know much more about football and conducting football business than Alen and Cronios.
I m still puzzled on this one, the way we realized this transaction with Amauri was rather good after all,
since we kept Giovinco, Marchiso, 50% of Lanza and DC
I thought that our nooby (inexperienced and stupid) managers wouldnt pull that off, this way.
Paying 5 mil more, to get a better finisher, a younger player, who will last more years,
who will not create a crisis and a headache in our team, because he can wait a couple of seasons on the bench (See what happens when Treze returns, or next year) and for the fact that we are not going to risk Giovinco and the rest. I would have preferred the KJH
He seemed to be the wisest strategical choice at that time and for these reasons.
On the other hand, at this very moment though, we know that somehow, (with divine intervention), we didnt trade Giovinco and Treze was injured again and lost the first half of the season, while Iaquinta has been off form at the same time.
For these certain 3 months, the best tactical decision, IS Amauri.
He is older, more exp in serie A and he can step up at Treze's shoes right away! (not as a clinical finisher though)
But for my final decision, i need to see more of it.
If we keep Treze, then we might have our selves some problems,
since DP, Treze would be close to retirement and they wont accept the bench at these last years and Amauri will soon reach at the peak of his carrier and we wont be able to sub him either.
If we sell Treze and buy Cassano or Rossi, then we will eventually face some CF finisher deficit. Since Iaquinta, Amauri, Cassano are creative enough, but none of them can finish chances like a hardcore finisher,
as Treze does and the future exp KJH may or may not do...
Time will tell, if that was the wisest choice or not, but i wont forget the fact that "the hunter", was cheaper than "the beast".
As for my personal choice, i ll repeat my stance, i would buy none of them
and i would rather focus our very limited resources on the places we really suffer.
We are not supposed to manage our problems like Real.
We cant buy a new forward to solve our defensive problems!
I will never accept such a stupid logic, no matter what! Even if i was a Real fan and knew that my team is state funded...
Amauri cancel the effects of Iaquinta's acquisition, we spent valuable resources to get him then, when we could have bought Amauri at the first place and use more of our talents (Palla and Giovinco) rather than wasting them on the bench...
I would def not proceed the same way, spending 40-50mil to buy those two, when we already had 2 world class forwards and a very exposed defense and a faulty midfield...
We dont have to be more experts than our managers to see how stupid they are and how incompetent they are, comparing them to the other top quality managers.
They dont compete with us, my friend, they compete with the best. We may observe and judge if their performances are on par with our older managers and with the competition. And they are not!!
This is no longer an assumption, but a fact!!!
PS1; Alen: Its not nice to use somebody's words taken out of the context
PS2; Behave ur selves my brothers and adjust ur aggressiveness...
