    Don't you think 7.5M Euros is steep for Pepe? You don't think that could be used elsewhere, or that we could buy a better player for that amount? I know we could. Hell, we could have already but we weren't interested in those options.
    I agree, we are getting ripped off at 7,5. But if the price was to get reduced or we send a primevera player at them I think it will be ok. He is already in the squad and wouldn't take time to gel. Instead of getting a whole set of new players we could stick with those we have now and add some extra. But the mistake we made was to get him for 7,5 mln in first place.

    Martinez doesn't worth his 12M pricetag that we paid. Actually he never worthed that sum.

    Saying that is like saying Melo worth 25M just coz we paid that for him.
    Um, what people are willing to pay is what something is worth.

    That's a pretty common rule. If you don't think something is worth its price tag, you don't pay it.

    Melo was worth 25M when you bought him, since, his value has dropped.

    Martinez still isn't worth 12m.
    In Marotta's mind he is.

    You contradicted yourself there. If you agree with Burke, then Martinez was worth what Marotta paid for him.
    You didn't understand the original point I made. It's just funny how in that scenario we'd basically blow 14.5M on freakin' Simone Pepe, or 12M for a pawn to buy Simone Pepe.

    It's awful.

    So, how will you monetize the money we paid for Martinez? Trading him with Pepe that has a pricetag of 7.5M wouldn't be a bad move since probably we can't get more than 5M for Martinez alone.

    ... now you say Pepe doesn't worth his pricetag. Yeah, I agree, but still he could be useful for some situations. On the other side, Martinez is always useless.

    Useful for some situations? Hell, bring back Scirea's dead body, that could be used for "some situations."
