always said it and what do we lack right now???? depth in the wide positions... bad sale and not for that much money either

Probably saying what everyone already knows about our failure so far this term.... The problem is that we bought 11 players.. all have a lot of potential and talent, but all we really needed were a few top choice signings...
We needed 1 top class striker, 1 wide player (2 after selling niang last minute), 1 top class midfielder, 1 side back, and 1 top class CB.... that's 5 players... 5... instead we go out and buy 11... individually I can't say they weren't all good players and good signings but we needed a few greats not a bunch of potentials. Kessie, Conti, and Silva were solid signings as far as the potential goes. But Biglia was overpriced and not worth it, Kalinic is a classy player but we all know Belotti is the one Milan needed to get... Borini has been a good workhorse and depth player but a signing that would have never been needed if we hadn't made consistently shit sales (i.e. - SES)... calhanoglu is a talented player but he cannot be called upon to carry the team the way kaka could.. calhanoglu would have been great in a team that is already solid and he could slot in, but in this team he will be hit or miss because the squad is not consistent enough for him to learn to synchronize with player movements well enough.
All is not doom and gloom though because we truly have some quality players here and we can make this squad work, but it is going to take time, especially after 11 signings... I just hope that we either land Conte or Ancelotti or we hold on to Montella until season's end.. I see no point in replacing Montella with another like-for-like coach just to switch things up... either get a top class coach or keep him.
The number 1 reason why we are in this position is because we didn’t sign a LW. It is the reason why montella changed the formation, a formation he prepared for the whole summer + last season.
F&M fucked up big time

shouldve kept Ocampos
I'm not so worried about the need to have a WC forward. I look at Immobile and Dzeko as examples of forwards who were pretty much written off and not wanted as transfer targets by anyone on this forum because they flopped a season or two ago. Our problem is midfield and wingers. I would guess Silva, Kalinic, Cutrone, etc. would do just fine and scoring many goals if we brought quality players in those departments. We may have brought in Biglia, Kessie, Calhanoglu, but that's not enough in the midfield that needed a massive overhaul even with our reserves. And we didn't even touch the issue with our wingers this summer. A majority of our transfer budget between January and the summer should go toward quality midfielders and wingers. Add Conte or an experienced manager and we should be fine going forward to the base that was already created this summer. We also still need to get rid of more deadwood like Abate, Antonelli, Montolivo, Mauri, Paletta, Gomez, Zapata.
Although if the opportunity arises next summer, I would try for Belotti or Aubameyang again. I think both of them are destined to leave their respected clubs next summer.

donna
conti-musa-roma-ricrod
kessia-loca-hakan
suso-silva-bona
fixed our team from last season.. we should be ok like this..
then they add bonucci to play with 3 defenders and unfixed everything turning into worst.
when montella goes, dont know if i want fassone and mirabelli going along with him.
I'm still very happy with the work F&M have done so far but those manager links of Mazzari, Sousa and Gattuso would be awful.
No hint of a contradiction
Shouldve spent all the money on Fellaini
not even depth, we don't have a single good lw
pre injuries bonaventura could have fulfilled the role, but ever since his constant injury problems it feels like his athleticism has dropped by 50%
Take Delofeu back in January and problem is solved
