I posted a lineup for the coming season with Berardi on the right, but I didn't state that Berardi should be a starter if he comes here. He's 19 years old, and same with Pogba none rated him a starter after the transfer. If we're to play with wingers from next season on we need a bunch for those two positions. Tevez playing on the wing isn't ideal, so even if we had two good wingers we'd still need a few more for competition/rotation. This is where Berardi is perfect IMO. Giovinco has played 16 games so far this season. 16 games here would be perfect for Berardi. El Shaarawy had a bad first season in Milan too, yet the second season he managed to become a key player for them and a regular for Italy and Prandelli. If Berardi gets another season somewhere else, probably in a bottom table club and do extremely well there's no guarantee he'll come here a season later and become a key player. Young players need time to settle and IMO Berardi has proven this season, that he is good enough to get ~15 games here.
