Honestly, all of you are really ungrateful, sorry for being to direct. Beside two/three mistakes which can happen to anyone, Mexes has been great IMO. In the game against Arsenal away, where Tiago was the one making mistakes Mexes was a beast. And he has been best back up defender we have had in years. (Stam).
Look mistakes happen to anyone, even the best. But when paired with Tiago, Mexes has been great through out all season.
Neither Ogbonga nor Astori come even close to Mexes. If we sell him we better bring Ivanovic or Vidic (both of them highly unlikely) if not just keep him and bring Ogbonga as backup. Astori has never convinced. He was ours,we gave him away for a reason. Allegri coached him so there must be smth that he has never mentioned him.
As for Abate, its not true that he is getting better. He was nowhere near the level of last year. I really think he doesn not have to much space for improvement. Defensively he is ok, prone to mistakes but very solid in general. Offensively he is pure crap. Very one dimensional, everyone knows that he will go either on the right or straight forward. The moment he turns left he is no longer a danger. With that in mind every average defender in Italy nullifies him. (Maybe is better to put a more defensive Rb with Urby roaming freely forward on the left). If you analyze it every team has only on FB who pushes offensively.
