Path was written where?

We have still absolutely no proof he would have made it to the Inter first team.

You are just trying to argue something to make yet another dig at Marotta for monetizing Casadei. Too transparent.
Lol what proof? We're talking about a football player. It's a sport not hard science!

Prove City will beat Inter tomorrow and Haaland will score 3 against us.

I'm saying we can't say how he could fare against men, specially not last summer. Asllani showed in 6 months at Empoli he can do it. And showed this season he can do it. Asllani is not a world beater by any means, I'm not saying that. But he can play.

Casadei was sold to generate plusvalenza.

edit. Buying and selling aren't net neutral in balance sheet perspective. Casadei was full 15m profit for this fiscal year while Asllani is just a fraction of his transfer fee for this fiscal year.
Well, of course, no one says it's the same thing. There's a process and you need to build up muscle mass as well without deteriorating your physique and traits that allow you to expose your talent.

But arguing that Casadei's sale was a good idea is just not a winnable argument.
I'm just using Asllani for the price tag, not the financial consequences per se.

You cannot cry "play more youth" and send away your best prospects to sign players that most probably will barely ever amount to being a rotation player for Fiorentina.

Since you guys completely dont care about context whatsoever, I'm going to be useless anyway and say Asllani was brought in to cover the regista position at the time when we were constantly one Brozovic's absence away from crisis and didn't know Hakan could be it. The cover would need to be ready right off the bat for that specific role, no retraining no development and all that shit, and without costing too much money too.

Useless context, I know.

And Casadei's path was written, Asllani had to work hard to get minutes and still does. So he's closer to the Gagliardini type than the Casadei/Zaniolo type.
Actually Casadei is much closer to Gagliardini than Asllani is. He is the same type of tall, physical midfielder who excels in attacking the penalty area.

The argument isn't even about Casadei vs Asllani for a roster spot, so I guess thanks?

Okay understand.

Yes, selling the kids is a strategy which has been used at Inter for a long time. Academy is the plusvalenza factory for the club. It's just the way it is. Unless we hire a coach who's willing to use younger players AND is not tasked to win trophies out of the gate, this factory idea might change.

This is why I love this forum. We are playing a CL final tomorrow and we are discussing the transfer of Casadei.
This who the fuck cares? Fact is we re playing in a freaking CL final tomorrow how much can selling cassadei have hurt us?

Also i ve said it a million times before we have this discussion with almost every supposed futur star from our youth academy and the fact s that 95% of them never make it to be good enough to start for inter.

Also it s a fucken U20 tournament go check the best players of that tournament in the past editions and see how many of em made it.
Not like being a beast in a U20 tournament means anything... While pogba and haaland shined there so did the likes of orsolini solanke, traore...
My pint being u 20 tournament s are not the greatest indicators of how good a player is.
Most of the ones who shined there and made it later were already recognized as huge talents....

One fucking cares when he sees the club is struggling financially year after year and pretend to be forced to sell the players to cover the losses only to spend much more for rubbish players who have no resale value whatsoever. It has nothing to do with if we're playing the CL final tomorrow or in one hour!

Yes it fucken does..... we sold casadei for 15mio.... like you said we re in a financial crisis so these 15 mio wich most likely were all profit very much matter and we dont know who else would have needed to be sacrificed keep in mind that gags probably would not have fetched that money...
Like even if it would have ment we dont get Miki we d probably not be here now(CL final)...

BUt sure lets assume these 15 mio we got were not necessary and it had no influence in us being able to afford the likes of lukaku and Miki who both were kind of essential in getting us to where we are.

Come crying again about casadei when the fucker has actually done something or is sold for a amount significantly above 15mio.

We sold him so that we could loan Lukaku
stop making stuff up.
Lukaku's loan was completed on June 30th.
Casadei was sold on August 19th.
Acerbi joined on September 1st.

[Di Marzio] "Dortmund asks for 15m for Akanji, exactly the money received from the sale of Casadei. Zhang will decide whether to invest it or keep it to ease the finances. If he says no, Acerbi then becomes a real opportunity"

If he doesn't dig on Marotta, it's on Lukaku
If it's not Lukaku, it's Conte
If it's ot Conte, it's Marotta...

The endless circle, where Brehme's anxiety and grudge are pouring in.

Dude, everyone knows Casadei and Lukaku deals are related. Just because the timing doesn't do it for you, it doesn't mean it's made up stuff.

Also, before Casadei's deal was even complete if we trust your dates:

“Inter’s asking price, as already anticipated, is €15 million plus add-ons, but there’s another detail to take into consideration,” Pedulla reports.

“The sum would be deducted from the option to make the loan of Romelu Lukaku permanent within the agreement between the clubs that obviously cover the dry loan fee (€8 million plus another €4 million that would triggered in the event that the Nerazzurri win the Scudetto).”

He continues that “Therefore, Lukaku’s time at Inter is destined to last over time, and the amount relating to the right of redemption would be deducted based how much the clubs agree for Casadei.”

I wouldn't be surprised if we ask for him back in a deal for Onana.

All he has done is score goals at every level...as a midfielder. Lots of young players score, but then there are killers and he just knows where to be. Its an overlooked Pisses me off still.

Was a nonfactor in U-20 final today against Uruguay, but Italy's entire squad was. The commentator did mention he was "a promising Chelsea owned player", currently "on loan to Reading".

He scored 1 open play goal, 3 headers from corners and 2 penalties.
The only thing I take from that is that he is better at headers than Lukaku :D
