I've been following the news while away and really have no understanding about what the club's trying to do. Silvio seems to think that 86m spent in the summer (or 150m as he'd have you believe) is enough to make this team challengers for the title. It's not enough investment after the damage done over almost a decade, but moreso results are never going to be immediate. He's actually causing huge damage with his constant snipes and threats, as most are actually behind Miha right now and instead of offering confidence in the club to work towards something, he's doing nothing but creating tension. Miha's quite possibly the least of the problems right now. Silvio and Galliani are massive issues at the club.
Speaking of Galliani, he's work is nothing short of a joke. He used the money in the summer to build something incomplete and never addressed the key problems and now this winter has done nothing but shown failure. I don't even know what these guys are working towards, because on the one hand they want to build an Italian Milan, on the other want instant success and ultimately having nothing to show for all the hot air. I don't even understand how Galliani is still allowed to be a part of the club, it's beyond belief.
Funny thing is, I think with smart investments this side could actually be really good and genuine challengers for top 3, yet I have zero confidence in those making the decisions. They do part of the work, but as soon as any sort roadblock is hit, they panic and decide it's the wrong strategy. Either that, or they simply flop from the beginning and no progress is made to begin with.
We as fans are also to blame imo, as we're an extremely fickle bunch who will from calling a player a world beater to fodder in the space of a week. I think Bacca, Romagnoli and Bertolacci are good signings, even for the large sums of money spent on them, but they're going to struggle if the team is not built to completion. Just think about that statement, I'm not even saying we have a half built squad, the first team itself is only half built. I actually think that Bacca and Romagnoli have been exceptional since joining, as Romagnoli's not had a real partner in defence and Bacca's lacked support up front. Bertolacci can give much more and needs to improve, but he also needs players working towards the same goal around him to work. I've posted about the lack of chemistry in the Empoli thread about how I think his performance is hindered.
