Summer Mercato 2011

[Nalx]

I really think that Ganso was our main target this summer, and the only one that's affordable by our financial strength. But the plan, at least for the time being, broke down because he expectedly failed to reach the level he was before the injury. That leaves us to the distant "plan B" in Schweinsteiger or Fabregas who not only are more expensive but also harder to get. That's why I think Galliani, while watching Ganso's performance in the next six months, blabs about Mr. x doesn't necessarily mean an already proven star and will eventually settle for "plan C" players in Montolivo or Aquilani.

I don't like it anymore than you but this thing happens. Just like Gasp wasn't exactly Merda's 1st or 2nd choice either.
