Those things are hard to predict and even though I believe Bennacer is a good buy, I see valid criticism of buying from a team relegated. It’s neither here nor there, evens the highest rated youngsters have failed and some players come out of nowhere Eg. Piatek. It’s one of those things whereby you just want as little risk as possible. Nothing is a sure thing.
So people being upset that posters are not happy with the purchases is odd to me at least. Their concerns are as valid as yours. Who knows it could go the other way. If you feel they are going to succeed, good for you. I think Bennacer is going to be amazing as well, Krunic I’m on the fence about, but is there anything wrong with some cynicism as neither are proven at the level that we playing at? There is no proof of them succeeding, who knows maybe they can’t cope with the pressure, or not mentally there yet, it’s a wait and see game at the end of the day.
The reason why people are worried about Bennacer or Krunic is because they haven't watched them
and they haven't been hyped. Or they forgot about how Empoli's midfield outplayed most teams (including ours) when we played them. They've been an impressive unit.
When Napoli buys Giovanni Di Lorenzo from Empoli as the replacement for Hysaj, one of the best RBs in Serie A, and one of the top players in his position in Europe, that isn't a stupid move from Napoli. If we bought Lorenzo, and let's say he was a LB, can you imagine the meltdown?
Milan has bought proven players before. To act like Bonucci and Biglia weren't proven Serie A performers--Higuain too--to me is hilarious. They all failed miserably at Milan. They were as proven players as you could buy and they failed. You can say you didn't rate Bonucci at the time, but to act like he didn't come with expectations to perform, to me, is laughable. Bonucci was considered one of the best CBs in the world, Biglia was seen as one of the best central midfielders in Serie A, and Higuain was considered to be a world-class striker. They all failed.
People focus more on what they know, who they know, and who is hyped.
If names are all that matter, then Milan has bought a lot of great names in the last few years. They've mostly failed at Milan. Hakan was supposed to be the best FK taker in the world, he's sucked at it. Ricardo Rodriguez was supposed to be the best LB in the Bundesliga. He's underwhelmed (I won't say failed, that's too far, for me). Conti got injured (so I won't shit on him), Silva sucked, Kalinic sucked, and really only Kessie has done relatively well from all our transfers recently.
My issue is not that people are upset with our transfers. It's that they're upset about players they don't know about. Everyone was pissed about Bakayoko and look at how that turned out. But people aren't talking about players that are known to us. They're talking about players they don't know about, that's my issue with their "concerns."
Like, I honestly wonder what people like in SMS. What does he do that anyone likes? What role does he even play? But he's hyped as fuck.
Remember when Lindelof was the next great defender we missed out on? He was
so hyped. Look at what he's become.
If people want to continue to pretend that Bonucci, Biglia, and Higuain weren't supposed to be sure things, okay, fine, but looking at how badly they've failed, I'm at the point where I don't really have expectations anymore, particularly for players that I haven't watched.
Did you not see who you quoted on that BS?
