Mate, you need to read my whole post
I'm not good at picking out examples, but I had a point to make, and I think to that effect, the rest of us actually got my point

i got your point and i totally agree with the idea that we are screwing up with those loan deals more than we are benefiting.

On milannews.it they usually give a weekly report on the loaned-out players and how they performed during the matches and i tend to follow up on those most of the times. Unfortunately, a lot of the players end up sitting on the bench and not playing or get subbed in for a few minutes every week and it's not like they are even playing for Serie A teams. Obviously we are not making the right choices regarding which of our youngsters should be loaned out and to which teams in order to get them the most playing time & most possibility for improvement or it is that our youngsters are actually crap that they cannot break into a pro-lega team.

However, we all saw that Merkel and Strasser have at least some potential and tbh i think loan deals to Genoa & Lecce which are 2 Serie A sides where they can find enough playing time is not a bad idea (unfortunately they both got injured badly during the season). However, what makes it a bad idea is the fact that we did not have much better players on our 1st team to start with. So if we had the likes of Fabregas and Alcantara sitting on the bench, then I would understand sending them on loan but to have Seedorf or Urby as our major midfield subs then this does not make much sense.

But to hope that Strasser becomes an Obi Mikel????
bad example
