Summer mercato 2012

That's fair, it's your opinion. If we look at Bonera over the past 3 or so years, tbh he's been overall atrocious, making costly mistakes time and again (Udinese 4-4 last year is still a nightmare I struggle to forget) and prior to recently, I shared your opinion. That said, I'm really only interested at what they do at the moment, and both have generally remained fit and training regularly since the winter break. Since that period, if I'm honest both have had their positive moments (e.g. Barca first leg), but neither has been great. Thing is, while Bonera is at least tactically somewhat disciplined, Mexes just doesn't seem to position himself well during matches and this is really costly. Looking at this period, I'm not sure Mexes is actually better than Bonera as I previously believed.

Actually, in Roma, Mexes was "good" for one single reason :
- Chivu was in a good form when he was his partner in the centre of the defence
- Juan was quite outstanding before being injured again and again, and Juan was the real defender of that team, not Mexes

When you watch Mexes in Milan, he has looked good with Thiago Silva or with Nesta, because these guys are better than him, give him advices/orders (about his position) ... They are leaders.

Once you put Mexes with a normal player, he suddenly looks a lot worse than what people could expect from him ...

Never did and never will convince me he's a good player for Milan ...
