Summer mercato 2012

[ElMago99]

Regarding Abate: I don't think people want him gone, especially seeing that it'll be very difficult to get a quality replacement. There are a lot more problems that have to be addressed. However, I DO believe that he's a painfully average player. Like someone said earlier, he's a sprinter who plays RB for us. All he can do is run really quickly. His crossing is poor and at best yield corner kicks. He's thrown away multiple derbies for us with his amateur defending. He's not the first on my list of players to go..but we can definitely do better than Abate at RB.

Actually I do want him gone. And it's very easy to replace. We can sell Abate to any English team for 7-10M Euros. Gregory Van der Weil is available for 5-7M. Get him before the Euros at a discount.
Abate has NEVER scored, he can't cross, and he cost us not 1, but 2 Derby's. Oh, and Bonera did a better job against Barcelona.

We don't have to choose a RB over midfield, it's a straight swap, and perhaps we'll make money on the deal. As for the rest of the squad, don't expect too much more. Maybe Robinho will go and Tevez will come, but that's it.
