[am I Milan enough?]

We have been trying to strengthen our youth for the past 2 seasons (to be able contribute to first team) , but after what we had witnessed glimpse of hope that Merkel could be the one making way from youth to first team, Mgt just sold him to Genoa!
Now what the hell they wanna do?? Its not like we have many many excellent youngsters lining up ready for first team every now and then? nor we have budget to get another midfielder?? (to complete current one)

Im just so mad.

We have to accept the fact that Merkel isn't that good. I'm worried that we are desperately looking for a successful youth product that every youngster from our own ranks is suddenly being regarded as a wonderkid. Like when everyone here compares Paloschi with Balotelli... Merkel is not Thiago Alcantara, Nuri Sahin, Aaron Ramsey or Guti; heck he's not even Marchisio.

Well, noone is comparing Merkel with those names you mentioned above, we have to accept he is NO wonderkid, but based on few games he's got the chance to play, he showed he is not any worse than Flamini or any midfielders we have, he showed he's got some talent that if we gave him more games to play, he could somehow develop into one fine player.
And considering our tight budget (as always), imo he could be very useful in time to come.
