Fucking Pazzini. Seriously, if we end up with Pazzini and hijacking Destro's move to Roma, and Marotta calls that a Mercato, then fuck him deep and hard. So far, he has proven adept at lowering the total wage bill, acquiring depth and youngsters, but being a top notch director is about being able to get top quality players. He promised us a WC forward last year, and we got no one (Vucinic is class, but inconsistent and too lazy at times to be considered WC). This year, with a Scudetto, CL, and extra funds in the form of winning the title and competing in the CL, he has no fucking excuses. Every once in a while, you need to spend to make that upgrade in quality; now is the time. If Marotta really thinks he can get a WC striker/forward for under 20 million, then he best go back in time, because it ain't happening. I'm not asking us to spend 40-50 million on a single player (although it'd be nice to do that every once in a while, as opposed to splashing 5m here, 10m there on very meh/average players), but 23-25 million + co-ownership of Marrone would be a steal for Jovetic. We need to be forward thinking and ambitious, and a sacrifice or compromise every so often isn't a bad thing.
