So that we'll make mistakes and learn from them.
God, another one.
Why do you think we're making a mistake? He is going to Atalanta. Genoa management didn't rate him enough to guarantee him first team spot.
Isn't that, lets for the sake of it, say there is even 0,1% chance he will fail ?
If it is a mistake or not, we will find out in couple of years, or even longer, if it is Toni case. But do we wait 6 years for him to show some fruits? I guess Recoba "fans" would have something to say here :]
P.S If someone wants his Inter's approach towards youngsters change for the better than he isn't an Interista? :howler:
(If this scenario will turn out to be true), remind me when was the last time, Inter took 3-4 players from Primavera into the first team. I'm waiting.
And am i the only one who see a bit opposition in that way:
1, Aqua wanted to come to Inter
2, He wants too play regularly
They exclude each other imo.
Every inteligent person sees that. Too bad not everybody can think outside of the box from time to time.
My guess is it went like this:
Mourinho wanted Acquafresca, he said it during the season, he talked about him. But he also wanted Milito (or other starting striker), this become evident during the spring. Inter didn't have money to buy Milito outright and Acquafresca was the best bargaining chip Inter got. Then Mourinho had to choose do he want a starting striker or a striker prospect. He chose a starting striker, so Acquafresca had to go to finance that move.
That's a very good start. If we would gather all the circumstances, I think people would change their mind on this transfer.
First, we have to acknoledge, there is a lot more risk to count on Aquafresca, that he will become stronger, than on Milito. Milito is already proven in Italy, he played for better team, he played in Spain with success. Aquafresca is a good prospect, that's it.
Second, we have to take into acount what Aqua wants. If we would know for a FACT that Aqua said he wants a starting spot at Inter, or play regularly, not as a back up, or 4th 5th choice striker, people would still like to take Aqua? And it isn't such a distant view, because we know Aqua wants to play regularly, and both he, and his agent said so. Inter couldn't agree to this from obvious reasons, and now Aqua is bitter.
Third, what if Jose and other people deciding, evaluated, and put their cards more on Destro, than on Aqua? Couldn't be like that?
And I just scratched the surface.
I believe this got nothing to do with Mourinho or someone evaluating that "nah, Acquafresca won't become a good scorer ever". This is just about money. And to me, Inter used stupidly their money in this case. Others can think whatever the fuck they want but this is my opinion.
Who would you buy instead of Milito? If we had to pay 10 mln for Milito(I don't know exact figure, but something close to that) including Aqua part of the deal, if we would keep 50%, 5 mln, out of this deal would have to be taken away. That leaves 5 mil. For the sake of it, lets make it even 10 mln. What striker that is worth 10 mil will you recomend us to buy ?
