I was going to post this yesterday but I left it for today, which is a shame since people are rating the mercato in the transfers thread already. (Maybe we can move those posts here so we can close that thread?)

This is a rundown of the transfers we made and the profits/money spent on transfers.

We loaned even more Primavera kids than in these charts but majority of them never even stepped onto the pitch for us. I used various sources to get my numbers, mostly Gazzetta for the wages to try to be as accurate as I can with the number

Sure, except there is a missing link there, no? Like something we don't know just like we didn't know the transfer and fee was already agreed three months ago, until all three parties decided to break the silence. Hence there very well could have been a price of 30M slapped on him, except no one wanted to pay that?

There is an Arab proverb, 'When the reason is known, there will be no more wonder'.
Balotelli has potential, City bought him from inter because of that, later sold him to us for less, we handed him off to Pool for less, and am I the only one seeing a pattern here? The trend? Mourinho of all people threw the inter prodigy out with all his potential. I wish Balotelli all the happiness and success in his life, yet I truly believe Milan will be better off without him. His potential is there, his mind is sporadically there. 20M IMO is too much for Balotelli, remember Adriano of Parma the inter? Professional conduct is a prerequisite for players in top flight leagues, and we always had our coaches cover up for his non-professionalism. Just like Adriano had a potential to score 60 goals a season, what became of him?

I'm happy with our window, we upgraded a lot on last season. As if refined the quality of play and players. Doubt we would have a strong 'team' performance in that first game with Balotelli onboard.

I still say we should have at the least held out for 5m more, especially when you consider that we're so desperate for money. It just feels like that if any club were to offer Galliani anything above a certain point .i.e actual money he'll yell SOLD!! Anything really to bring in some cash, even if it's a small amount, I truly fear what will happen next summer should SES have a break out season and PSG or some other team come knocking with anything above 25m, because we all know that's enough to more than just tickle Galliani's fancy

The rest about Balo and his conduct/professionalism I wholeheartedly agree with you. He disrupted the team too much
