well if you be bringing in that sine wave argument, in recent years we've been in a trough rite? but our stay there has been prolonged by shit-ass decisions and signings. e.g. shit-ass decision made most recently was keeping allegri ahead of the 2013-2014 season and the shit-ass signing to accompany that was matri.
these people are operating as though its their goal to keep us down in the dumps forever.
what's that? you cant be down in the dumps forever? boi I swear our management was trying to prove you wrong for a long time now.
I feel you...perhaps getting old as fuck has broadened my perspective.
In the 2000's it was us that won the CL twice.....Barca (2), Real(2), Munich, Manure Porto and Liverpool. In that decade we also won a scudetto. Granted our team was much better back then....but so was football in general imho. It was of a higher standard and more competitive.
In this decade we already won a scudetto and this is our first non-CL year. Keep in mind that we had a non CL year in 2009 even with Dinho, Dorf, P!rlo Gattuso etc. So I think the sinusoidal distribution of results is quite applicable.....Again if Serie A is your only yardstick then yes we are quite shit and infinitely behind Juventus....but to me, especially since calciopoli, I really don't rate Serie A, and I suspect that

and

much prefer success in the CL as well.
What we haven't had since iBra left is a marquee player.....I'm hoping that either Mastour or SES becomes a bonna fide superstar because the odds on Balo being that guy are getting slimmer with time. We have 0 superstars and this is mildly alarming for a club of our stature. I say mildly because I feel that as incompetent as they seem, management recognises this. Without a star face we lose more of our attraction and it makes sense that with the departure of Kaka - who is just a shadow of his old glorious self - that the Iturbe bid would be as outlandish as it sounds. As much as we insult them

and

actually aren't idiots
