I know, I know. But as a captain like Romagnoli who is a more experienced player in the team and renewing with Raiola as his agent, you will be more under the microscope than most others (unless you're a big money signing and don't perform). But since Ambro, our captains haven't exactly been great either have they? Montolivo needs no words. Bonucci was a fraud mostly here.
I understand that the Captain is a bit special, but like I posted I think it is regularly getting out of hand at Milan. I don?t agree with the Raiola thing, especially because we also had periods where the club encouraged players to change to him.
Bonucci is a good example I think, if you take out some of the Juve shady-ness he?s a strong and internationally appreciated player all over his career with clear strengths and weaknesses. Yet as a recent era Milan captain you have to be a flawless player apparently. Of course with Bonucci there was also this transfer period where we were either very unlucky or Juve scammed us in a couple of deals, but even if you take that away the point stands imo.
I always liked Monto, even post injuries Montolivo wasn?t really worse than overpriced Biglia, at least not in any way that reflected Biglia?s price tag. Not even to start with the countless horror shows of midfielders we had during his years. Our best mids now are thankfully better, but that‘s a very recent change.
