Because Cast is a first team player and Bessa is a Primavera player, and primavera's season is not over yet as they are close to the scudetto.
You guys really think he is going to perform just like in the primavera? Sneijder and Alvarez and others who have more experience struggled and you want Bessa to do better?
Pardon me, but what the fuck does it matter if Primavera wins the Scudetto? It does not matter.
The role of a youth team is to produce players for the senior team. Not win youth titles.
If we get knocked out from Primavera league i nfirst knockout year every single season and produce 2-3 players who become useful (at least one key) for the first team at very highest level then our youth system works.
If our Primavera wons Viareggio and Primavera league every season and produces players who'll grow to be Serie B / second half of the table Serie A player, then our youth system is not working at the level necessary.
The individuals it produces are more important than the results it produces.
And if it produces a player that is good enough to get a chance for the first team, that player should not be kept in that youth team in order so the youth team could win some titles. Espescially not when this player could have important role to play in the near future of the club and when the club needs to refresh.
The sad reality of the situation is such... if Bessa had arrived when he was 18-19 years old and had been at the level he is now, he'd have gotten at least 5 games in the first team (more if he played well). But because we haven't forked out 10 million for him, he is yet to get a change he truely deserves.
And god knows if he still ends up not getting that chance before the end of the season. What are the odds that we sign some Brazilians and Argentines for 5-10 million and he'll never get a look in with us, we end up shipping him away and he'll one day play for Juventus or Milan?
I nor probably anyone else demands him to suddenly burts into first team XI and continue to score from attacking midfielder position every other game. But he has potential, he should be very much in the heart of the future of Inter because from what he is showing in the Primavera, he is one of the best youngsters playing in youth level in Italy at the moment, maybe even the best player in the Primavera ranks.
When we speak of future of Inter, when we speak of young Inter. Why are we wasting time? This time that could be used for playing someone like Bessa goes to Cambiasso, Palombo, Maicon or Stankovic who shouldn't even be in the starting line up next season. These guys have nothing to offer, it is clear.
Why not try this unknown tasty looking dish rather than choose to fry the potatoes that have been in the fridge for 3 days. If we don't try it, we might never know how good it is and it could become uneatable or someone else would eat it. If it doesn't taste quite like it looked like, maybe a little seasoning will help.
This season is not about results any more. Or at least it really shouldn't be. Some could say that we mustn't give up and still push for the Champions League. I think there is no room for being delusional. Not after being delusional for 2 seasons in a row. We need to start preparing for next season, that means using players that play part of this team next season, that will become future of Inter. Even if they struggle, put those young kids on the pitch, let them express themselves.
I just cannot believe how narrow minded can such experienced coaches be. But then again, this is the exact problem we have with keeping Ranieri in his job, because he is still delusionally trying to save his job. This means Bessa is definitely not going to get a chance before CL is completely impossible and probably won't get it after this either. And I just hope there is someone in this club in the summer who will tell the new coach, be it Blanc or Villas-Boas or whoever else, that there is this awesome talented playmaker in the Primavera that you should look at.
Rant over.
