Ok, so we are rumored for Hamsik and Vargas? Two players we were rumored to get years back and now that their value has skyrocketed because someone else took a gamble on them and won, we are going to spend massive amounts of money to get them years later? Fuck that.
I like to try and remain optimistic but naturally when you watch your child learn to try and walk you are optimistic that this child will finally learn to stand on its own two feet. But after years of watching this child continue to stumble and fall over you come to the sad realization that this child is retarded. That is our club.
We could have signed Vargas before going to Viola but passed it up for Grosso/Moli, etc. We could have signed Hamsik for a couple hundred thousand and will be forced to pay at least 20m for him if we decide to go that route.
Kolarov for 200,000 to lazio and be sold for 25m?? haha. I tell you this, for the way with (as Kyle says) fuck up our youth and take them for granted we deserve this, absolutely. The teams that take risks like Viola, Lazio, etc deserve to reap the benefits while we look in amazement here at Juventuz on why the fuck we didn't take a risk on those same players. Now we are all left drooling about what "could have been".
We could have signed Diego from Santos, Kolarov before he went to Lazio, Sissoko from Valencia...etc. I could go on and on. What I am trying to say is IMO before we sign another fucking player for megamillions we need to revolutionize our scouting. Being one of the biggest and most prestigious clubs in the world we can't afford to cripple ourselves by over spending every season we fuck up. We obviously take our youth for granted and refuse to incorporate them in our senior team so why can't we just re-do our entire scouting network and find the next Hamsiks, Vargas's, Balotelli's, etc. Why do we have to continue either spending MILLIONS AND MILLIONS on already proven talent when it was another team that discovered them and paid peanuts?
My first move would be to bring someone to replace our useless scouts. Those piss poor bastards need to go.
As for what players to buy next season? The ones we need from Serie A to take us to the next level will go to Inter. Kolarov/Hamsik....we could use them both but do not stand a chance.
I'm just so sick and tired of watching Inter streamroll us and watching other teams use their youth and take risks on players that haven't made a name for themselves yet.
