I predicted before we even got him that he would struggle. And I was against signing him outright, at least this way it didn't cost us millions

And it's not his fault, him not working out here was predictable, he's a poacher. He thrives off of chances created for him. And we simply do not create the amount of chances he'd need to be prolific.

There is a reason why every pure striker we've had since Sheva aside from Ibra has bombed with us. We're just sterile, and this has been the case for a while now. Under Allegri it was very obvious as well, same as with Leo. We just don't play in a way where a striker can really thrive. Like for example Pippo did under Carlo.

For our attacking line to be a bit more prolific we need someone up there who not only scores but creates chances for himself and the others.

Oh and an actual midfield as well

Sell him? Nah, why would we?

That's my point. He's a good player, a very good striker. The few really good chances he's had he's taken.

But he doesn't get enough.

Han has a point with how he felt pre-signing, but his comments were more based on believing Destro wasn't that great. He is, but you cannot fire a gun without ammo, no matter how good that gun is.

And what makes you think/say he is great?

13 goals in 20 in Serie A in 2012/2013, including 6 sub appearances.

He's not bad, far from it. He can handle the ball well and has good intuition. His record for Siena and Roma is 0.42 goals per game, which isn't bad considering he was mostly used as a sub at Roma.

Now Mediaset are saying that we want Immobile for €15 million.

Seriously, Immobile for Destro? What's the point? I think they're very similar, but I rate Destro more. At least from what I've seen.

I'd rather take Paloschi back then splash big money on Destro.

This is pretty much why Curva Sud have boycotted us.

I never said he was bad either.

I see him for what he is. Which is a poacher, I think he's an overall good player, but he's not going to be good here with us, simply because it's not the right team for him.

I also was very adamant about us not signing him because I think it's too much money for him, especially taking into consideration the type of player he is and the fact that he won't really shine with us unless there is some major overhaul to the squad that is


I personally rate Immobile more than Destro

But again, what's the point of switching when they're the same type of player?

Sometimes I really do feel like Galliani has absolutely no clue when it comes to football, which is ridiculous since he's been in this for decades. But really some of the decisions and transfers are just baffling

Let's just get Cavani and put a rock on it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Big-time choker.

Never manages it on the big stage. EVER.

We're again interested in Sevilla's Emery as Inzaghi's replacement.

I forgot to post that. Rumour last night was we were offering him the job today.

Anyone here watch Sevilla from time to time?

I absolutely have no idea who this guy is
