Replacing Gagliardini with Frattesi was too good to be true, Frattesi is a player that could easily start for us, we are not Real that can have so much quality on the bench. Honestly i don't agree, our midfield is not worse, it's getting better with him, but he also needs to adapt first of course. Barella for example needed almost a season, while Sensi was already amazing. (then he got injured and never was the same player again)

About SMS: There was a discussion here. If i have to be honest, i also feel hes overrated. He is a good player, no question. But i feel like he isn't that good like he was in past. The fact that only Juve wants him says already a lot. If he was THAT class some other top club would join the race.
Our midfield is getting better? We'll see that when Hakan injures himself and being out for 2,3 months. We have great options in that situation lol God help us

We do have Asllani. Offcourse it’s a real difference with Brozo quality wise, but if you want to develop young players, this is the way to go. They can’t when they are the 3th choise for 2/3 years.

A how is that a better midfield?Asllani was complete crap last season, what guarantees us that he'll become top midfielder next season?? If our goal is again finish top 4 than ok. But forget about winning scudetto or reaching latter stage in CL.

Frattesi should have come instead fkn Gags. We are losing Brozo and getting him. Only upgrade there is that we finally got rid of Gags. I was hoping we can get Frattesi and keep Hakan, Mikhi, Barella and Brozo. But this club is in such a shitty state with chinese rats so that scenario was impossible. Such a bummer.

You don’t have guarantees with young players. That’s the exact reason why a lot Italian coaches prefer to use players older players. And they are right a lot of times when immediate succes is wanted. But our scouts did see somerhing in Asllani. Brozo wasn’t the player when he came in from Zagreb he is now either.

And we don’t need to rely on Asllani now now neither. He will be a backup for Hakan. Is there a risk in there? Yes! But if you can’t trust or develop him now you can better write him off, because he will never fulfill his potential with us in that case.

We are building a squad here, with very little money. Sometimes you have to ‘downgrade’ a position for a while (although there can be a upscale in the foreseeable future) to upgrade another position. That’s the way it is.

yea.... when we got Barella it didn't feel like our whole budget + have to sell half our players to get him haha

right now anything feels like we need to sell half of starting line up + blood for 3 months to sign a free agent

Bremer all over again.

I called it early but people insisted the two cases are different.

Zhang didn't learn a thing from Bremer case.

Timing is everything in mercato. You make the deal first and then you have an entire summer to make necessary sales. If you wait to find money first then market dynamics can change pretty fast, others could catch up and in the end you will either lose the player or end up overpaying.

These clubs having meetings with Sassuolo over Frattesi shouldn't come as news to anyone. It was reported fee days ago already they will meet Juve and Milan aswell (at least Juve).

Calma you teenagers. :lol:

It is so painful as obviously we don't have a single penny to seal Bisseck or Bellanova let alone Frattesi. But we can't go into the season as is because gaps all over the place.

So we are begging all over Europe to cash us on some fans favorites like Onana Gosens or Brozovic. Whoever gets the asking price first must say goodbye and after his replacement, the peanuts leftovers are somehow helping to pay the loan fee. That's how, ironically, one of the two the Champions League finallists is operating. Even Torino can outbid us... that's not even a joke.

Unfortunately good players don't wait for us too long. Look Jube sealing SMS or Milan - Frattesi in front of us again. Bremer or Tonali bis.

35m for Frattesi, 40m for Scamacca but when it was time to make a deal with Juve Locatelli, who had an insane hype after a great Euro with Italy, got sold for 25m plus bonuses.

I badly want that team to get relegated.
Yeah, but with the bonuses the total cost is around 38mln. Jube were able to pull off a free loan though. I think it was possible for Inter too, if the entire world don't know that Zhang is dead broken. So, I cannot blame the people that want to see some money in advance.

Anyway, I'm a bit confused about the fee? 35 mln + Mulattieri or something like 10 mln loan, then we sell them Mulattieri for 10 mln,.and after an year or two, we shall pay another 25?

Like I already wrote a few page earlier, I would be happy if we just get Pereyra for free and bring Fabbian back.

Barella, Brozovic, Hakan, Mikhi, Pereyra, Asllani, Fabbian would be better than we had last season.

Brozo can easily play another 4-5 years at top level.

If you haven't noticed we are selling Brozo to Saudis.

To be honest, a player like Frattesi or SMS may be a bit of a luxury for us. The midfield is already the most solid department of the team; we don't have to make a change other than replacing Gagliardini (lol) with someone a bit more physical than our other mids.

We are desperate for quality at the front and back however. Where are the forward and defender rumors? Ideally, we should be concentrating our resources to make moves in those areas.

I can kind of get it in the sense that Frattesi and SMS are two great market opportunities and when I look around at the options for the attack I am completely underwhelmed, but still.
