Gervs was a good player at Lille and really good the first few weeks of his time at Arsenal. I think he began to do to much (not sure if he was asked to do too much) If he sits on the wing then maybe he can be a good player.
I'm far more worried about what type of player Strootman is going to be and the implications for DDR.
Castan will be sold I'm guessing. If Marcos is sold we'll buy another CD. LIKE TO BUY Erikkson and sell Pjanic if that's what it takes. Mostly I'd just like DDR to announce he's staying.
i'm surprised you guys aren't that excited about strootman, although i can understand the suppressed reaction.
this kid was linked with all the big clubs, but for some reason ended up at roma. there might be a chink in his armor, but i think he will be a great player next to de rossi (hopefully).
Ahh.. I miss the pre-season doom and gloom around here.
Hope you fella's are doing fine around here. I know I haven't frequented at all over the last year or so.. but its been a busy period of time for me. I just actually moved out of Ottawa and into Toronto about 2 months ago, so just been settling in, and slowly getting back to a normal routine.
So on that note.. who's making the trek to watch the Roma friendly on the 8th? I'm sure it'll be lame compared to the real games - but its close to 2 years this fall - that I'll have not attended a game.. so I'm sure it'll be fun.
it's actually on the 7th and ive got 2 tickets with my friend on the south end of the pitch, Row 16... which may/may not be bad at BMO Field, dunno. crossing fingers for TFC to swoop on Forlan now
Great article on how foreign ownership is killing the game: 'Calciomercato, Poverty and Nobility'
"The Udinese model is in contrast to the mercenary system of PSG and City, as evidenced by the results achieved by club patron Pozzo in the last ten years."
"A football club works like a normal company. You have to always look at the income statement, which must be perfectly balanced and active." - Giampaolo Pozzo, Udinese president

Calciomercato, miseria e nobiltà / Massimiliano Riverso 16/07/2013
Tra un imprenditore serio e uno spregiudicato, è il primo a non andare lontano. Se questa è la logica, il sistema calcio è destinato a morire...
Edinson Cavani day a Parigi. L’ex fuoriclasse del Napoli verrà presentato alla stampa nel tardo pomeriggio. El Matador ha firmato ieri un contratto faraonico da 10 milioni di euro (esclusi diritti di immagine) che lo legherà al Paris Saint Germain per i prossimi 5 anni. Non solo Cavani per il Psg. Il club dello sceicco Nasser Al-Khelaifi continua a fare la spesa in Italia e si è praticamente assicurato Marquinhos, giovanissimo talento classe ’94 della Roma. L’ex Corinthians verrà pagato ben 35 milioni di euro, cifra che il ds Sabatini utilizzerà per finanziare la campagna estiva giallorossa con l’arrivo di Maicon e quelli ormai certi di De Sanctis e Strootman.
Dall’Inghilterra si susseguono senza interruzioni rumors che parlano di un accordo in via di definizione tra il City e la Fiorentina per Stevan Jovetic. L’attaccante montenegrino, oscurato dal nuovo idolo viola Mario Gomez, sarebbe vicinissimo al trasferimento in Premiershit per una cifra vicina ai 30 milioni di euro. Manuel Pellegrini avrebbe ricevuto un feedback positivo dall’emiro Khaldoon Al Mubarak, pronto a sborsare 40 milioni di sterline per Jo-Jo e l’attaccante del Siviglia Negredo.
Ma il calciomercato non è fatto solo di turbanti, petroldollari e colpi sensazionali. Alle razzie arabe che stanno sfalsando i valori del calcio internazionale si contrappongono trattative oculate e operazioni messe a segno da navigati dirigenti con budget limitati.
Il modello Udinese fa da contraltare al sistema mercenario di Psg e City, come testimoniano i risultati raggiunti dal patron Pozzo negli ultimi dieci anni. Mentre i top club europei basano la loro filosofia sullo sperpero di soldi in giocatori già formati e affermati, con risultati spesso tutt’altro che soddisfacenti, il presidente Pozzo e i suoi simili sono costretti a selezionare calciatori alle prime armi da qualsiasi angolo del pianeta, investendo laddove gli osservatori ritengano ci siano le basi per un futuro radioso.
Nessun team, infatti, forma un giocatore (Alexis Sanchez, Benatia e Zapata su tutti) per poi cederlo nelle vesti di campione allo sceicco di turno con conseguente plusvalenza faraonica. Il modello Udinese si fonda soprattutto su società satellite (Granada e Watford) che svolgono questo tipo di lavoro, dove le nuove leve maturano esperienza e competenza per poi costruire squadre competitive, restare in serie A e disporre anche di quelle risorse minime per poter esprimere del buon calcio alla Guidolin. Se non si opera in questo modo, in Italia e anche nel resto del mondo, si è destinati a scomparire. Basti ricordare le tante società gloriose di un tempo che navigavano costantemente in serie A e vincevano, mentre oggi non si sa neanche più se esistono.
Il doping finanziario imperat sovrano, mancano le regole e non esistono controlli. Molte società finiscono rapidamente in bancarotta e ciononostante continuano a disputare la Premier e la Liga. In Italia adesso ci sono regole ferree, le società che non le rispettano vengono penalizzate pesantemente in classifica. Il paradosso è che tra un imprenditore serio e uno che non guarda al bilancio è quello serio a non andare lontano. Se questa è la logica da seguire il sistema calcio è destinato a morire. Nei prossimi anni sarà necessario più equilibrio, meno disuguaglianza nei ricavi tra grandi e piccole squadre. Così, si renderà anche il calcio più bello.
Una società di calcio funziona come una normale azienda. Bisogna semplicemente dare sempre uno sguardo al conto economico, che deve essere perfettamente bilanciato e in attivo”. Giampaolo Pozzo, presidente Udinese
Pjanic is my kind of player. He's smooth, fluid and technical. Yet, for me he's less than the sum of his parts when on the pitch.
He didn't get all the starts in France and hasn't under three different managers at Roma. I'm not going to be angry if he's sold especially if it means getting Verratti or Erikson as i believe they'll stay longer.
I did like what he said about the using criticism as motivation for this season. This team needs some anger. To use an American term most were born on third base and act like they hit a triple.
Third base? An army base, like? They're all sons of war? Hit a triple? As in a triplet? Hitting a triplet on an army base? Eh thats some kinky weird shit you're into there, DCG.
Yeh, they need some anger. And balls. But more so discipline. RG said he's a tough disciplinarian, which I like. Ossie doesn't stand a chance.
And apparently, we've been linked to Diego Costa instead of Gervinho. I think it,s a smokescreen from Sabs. Still this article really makes me intrigues on the player: http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1646 ... ted-player
Uh oh, Ed starting to sound like another anti-American on the boards
I think it's all a smokescreen. Saba may be taking his meds and supressing his urges so far but no chance he picks up all the Marcos money and doesn't go trolling the streets of Rio or Catamarca for young vulnerable brown youth.
