You think Bennacer, Origi, and Adli are bigger fuck-ups than... Chuk? Emerson Royal? Okafor? Morata? Lol, what? Messias outperformed Chuk.
Fonseca is the biggest fucking moron that was... hired by who? The bygone era or the current owners?
Musah we can clearly sell for solid money? Wake me up when we actually sell him. Let's see what amazing deal Besiktas gives us for Emerson Royal. Morata is a financially positive deal? Do we get to factor in performances here when it comes to what is financially positive? You don't want to bring up Okafor? Pavlovic who can't mark an attacker to save his life?
And Walker and Felix--they didn't cost money? We paid money for Felix, and paid his salary, or am I wrong? Sottil didn't cost us money? Terra didn't cost us money? Bondo didn't cost us money? How do they not matter--we put money into players that didn't help us.
Let me use Bondo to explain my point: we paid 10m for Bondo when we needed a midfielder to help Fofana and Reijnders. Musah was terrible, RLC was injured the entire year, and so we spent 10m on Bondo, who was also injured, which hurt our sporting performances. Can you see why I don't agree with your point that these transfers don't matter?
Their choices are financially irresponsible, because they severely impact performance. We just lost 100m from missing out on the CL--because of this ownership's choices. They chose to put Moncada in charge, without a license. They did not think it was smart to hire an actual SD, that they didn't need one. They also chose not to hire a serious coach, when many were available, including Allegri who they hired now. They chose to hire Fonseca who you describe as "the biggest fucking moron." They interviewed him, nodded along with what he said, and then gave him money to run this team into the ground. This ownership hired Ibra and let him make choices like bring in Kivorski, who has no experience in Italy, at all, to head up out Futuro project and got them relegated--was that a good financial decision? Instead of keeping Abate, Ibra fired him (and his father)--was that a good financial decision?
They have moved on from players who aren't working out? What? So why is Chuk still here? Why did we let Kalulu go, to go buy Emerson Royal? We pushed out Adli for Musah? We loaned out Saelemaekers and relied on Okafor? The players who want to be here, who want to fight for this team, like Saelemaekers, like Adli, like Kalulu, those are the players that are problem? Okafor who couldn't stop eating, he wasn't a problem last year? For all the complaints about professionalism, Okafor doesn't raise a question about it?
And at the end of the day: they lost 100m in revenue by getting 8th place, because they made choices based on ego. Whether it was firing Abate, keeping Chuk, buying Emerson Royal, going after Felix and going 424, etc the decisions made by this ownership have been capricious and rooted in shifting blame, avoiding accountability, and for personal vanity.
That's the definition of financial irresponsibility.
