Summer mercato 2012

[ZvonimirBoban]

Robben will be benched. Or Ribery. As simple as that. Or Shaqiri. Why not? He is young, do you think every team will rush any youngsters into the first team, no matter how world class they are? Look at Pato.

Actually, it's like cooking ...

- Robben hasn't been that good this season so far, he has often been injured (not only this season though), and there were a lot of persistent rumours about him leaving during the last summer mercato ...
- You add the fact that Bayern already bought a potential replacement ...

You mix all that and it gives what I said: "Robben will maybe be more easy to sign this summer than all the other players mentionned", which doesn't mean "Robben will leave during the next mercato" ... Unless I misunderstood myself !!

No Geo. I can safely say, you missed my point, so I'm willing to re-explain my points more clearly. This is what I'm responding for:

I don't see Bayern getting a player for their bench.

What I disagree is that you assume Shaqiri will automatically get first-team spot and Robben is the one he replaced. I said that maybe they'll play with Shaqiri-Robben, Shaqiri-Ribery, and maybe even Robben-Ribery, they have quality wingers.
