Summer mercato 2012

[Arildonardo]

Well, still better than player X thing.

That was a shambles and an utter embarrassment .

Tevez was way more than just a link, there were official negotiations ongoing. That happens to less than 1% of the players we're "linked" with...

And we still didn't get him.So much for the thought of "IF A WC PLAYER COMES UP AT A DISCOUNT WE'LL GET HIM".

I don't expect much at all , I see some say here and elsewhere that Asamoah Kolarov/Alba Tevez Monty would be a great mercato , To me that would be a dream mercato.

It look's like Monty will be our star signing , and Inra Aquilani Maxi paid for , payment in Ibra's case.Muntari and extensions.It's going to be lacklustre IMO.

We don't get all players that we're negotiating for, a final agreement couldn't be reached. Too bad, because Tevez could be very useful for us.

I don't want to paint our mercato black already. I don't expect us to spend crazy money and compare use with Chelsea, Man City, Real Madrid or Barcelona, but that doesn't mean we can't sign good players who can make us better.

Pirlo luring Nesta to Juventus

If we allow him to go as we did Pirlo, Management will be the biggest Failures there is in Football.

Personally I think it was worse losing Pirlo. Unlike Pirlo, Nesta has shown signs of being over the top and we should be thinking of replacing him in the starting line up anyway. But maybe we should try and keep him for one more season.
