FIF's dramatic last day of the mercato thread: winter 2022

[varmin]

Bonaventura is 32 but is still one of the best midfielders (almost fucked up Milan's match though) of Fiorentina. Won't mind him as stop gap for 2 seasons, if his wage is ok + free agent.

 

[nadzington]

its easy when you have a trojan horse named Paratici at Tottenham. That retard didnt just pay once 40M for Kulusevski, but twice...

I dont think he is a trojan horse, he is just a bad sporting director. Many sporting directors and coaches turns to old players. Look at us we have Correa and Caicedo.

Both are still pretty young Bentancur 24 and Kulusevski 21, their prices are not outrageous

 

[_OC_]

Speaking of trojan horses, I’m 97% sure Nadzington isn’t an Inter fan.

Somethings doesnt seems right, there's gotta be some kind of "deal" behind it, maybe to help juve balance their book or something,
based on their very own supporter , both benta and kulu were struggling, and kulu profile seems doesnt match conte preference, strange deal,
It's only a theory, dont know what really happened behind closed door

 

[.h.]

to be honest i dont think there's anything cynical in it, paratici is just getting fucking desperate and only knows what he knows. This late in the transfer window, he has very few options, and if you're in Juve's position, why not make them overpay?

Their ages are irrelevant when their performances are so poor. Bentancur has been very poor in the last 2 years and Kulusevski has been a flop at Juve. Spending 60m on those two is laughable.

English loves overpaying every single thing.

 

[brehme1989]

Paratici this and that. Isn't Levy tight as fuck? Does Paratici not cater to some demanding manager's needs?

 

[nadzington]

I agree that they overpaid, but 19 m plus 6 in addons is not that much. I have many friends that are tottenham fans and their very happy and wondering why the got him so cheap haha.

We paid practically the same for Gagliardini and even more for Vecino.

Kulusevski is loan 18 months that can become obligatory later on.

Now im swedish so i am biased, but i really think that Kulusevski has a future. He just needs a coach that believes in him. If anyone Conte can make him a superstar.

After hijacking Bremer's potential replacement at Torino (Gatti), Juve are now trying to hijack Scamacca's potential replacement at Sassuolo (Lucca).

All this to up Scamacca's transfer fee, fuck's sake. Would only serve them right to nab Dybala on a free.

Or fuck it, Scamacca is actually just a smokescreen for Jonathan David ala Kulusevski-Eriksen, Ausilio masterclass

 

[Conan the Barbarian]

Rumours from Turkey Fener are trying to sign Gagliardini on loan.

100% fake news

The main source is Turkish outlet Fanatik, which is not even a newspaper. It's a toilet paper. Also Fener aren't looking for a CM. They have plenty of them atm.

LOOL. They are soo trying to show who's the boss, unfortunately you ruin all your good relations between clubs going that way. Beppe in the end is a gentleman and respected all around. Arrivabene smokes a pack of Red Marlboro a day and thinks he's the main star in Gomorra. Step aside grandpa, you can't even make Beppe sweating. He made all those scudetti post 2011.

Rube are mad we are using the SAME negotiations with agents and players like they did with Locatelli and Vlahovic and they are especially mad that SD's from those clubs ( Sassuolo & Torino ) have already said " forget about it "

Serie A is lit atm. It seems the war is starting to heat up properly between us and Rube.

Quick sign Messi!!!!!!!

Marrotta arrived at the mercato hotel, last minute signing?

Yeap, Frattesi.
I am assuming we can offload someone on loan, but we're gonna make an attempt either way.

Complications in terminating the cheerleder's contract perhaps.

 

[thatdude]

Casadei looks promising but yeah. I agree. It doesn't look good with primavera.

Franco Carboni looks interesting as well. He’s physically got the tools.

Zhang has ordered a last minute Bastoni sale to pay for wages in the second half of the season
