A good article on Football Italia: http://football-italia.net/74568/diavolo...j%C3%A0-vu
And the writer points out what we all know, that our defence and midfield have been neglected while we have great players up front. Romagnoli needs a solid partner, and we need midfielders who are dominant in terms of both skills and attitude. Until then, this mess will probably continue. Hopefully we will see some investment in January. The problem is that Galliani seems utterly confused by the situation, as if just spending 90 million would solve everything.
What nobody at Milan seems to understand is that you have to spend it right. Start with a strong defence. Then get solid midfielders. Only then should you start thinking about getting top level strikers. That's how Juve did it when they rebuilt. When they won the league in 2012, they had Mirko Vucinic, Marco Borriello, Alessandro Matri and Fabio Quagliarella up front, in addition to a 40 year old Del Piero. But they had solid players in defence and midfield, and that was enough.
But why am I blaming Galliani anyway? He is just a yes man who does what Berlusconi wants. And Berlusconi is an old, confused man who doesn't understand how to build a good team anymore. We brought in two and a half top level strikers this summer. In midfield we bought two squad players in Bertolacci and Kucka, while in defence Ely and Romagnoli were apparently all we needed. Seriously? We could have kept El Shaarawy and Pazzini and invested in the rest of the team instead. Because with proper support, both of them would have been scoring goals.
This club is so mismanaged it's not even funny anymore. It's like they're all blind or something.
