oh Valero you mean the guy who helped a lot in the first part of the season to get us to CL...Banega is also a cool player
When were Banega, Melo or Podolski top players as Milito or Lucio? here's my logic.What about Vidic, Valero, Banega, Melo and Podolski? Hence your logic.
It is alright to built a team with a small number of experienced players but it has to be a mix. Experience in a combination with a hunger to improve is the key.
Both Vidal and Nainggolan are well known for their physique. Guess what trait that normally goes down with age. Yup, physique.
We can count the number of good games Valero played for this team on one hand

Watch the net loss and you will see:What about Vidic, Valero, Banega, Melo and Podolski? Hence your logic.

Watch the net loss and you will see:
Vidic buy: free sell: free
Podolski loan 600k
Melo buy: 4m sell: free
Banega buy: free sell 10m
Valero: buy: 7m, sell: 3-5m
Compare with the "young talents"
Mario: buy: 45 sell: 25 maximum
Kdog: buy 35m sell: 25m
Gabi: buy 30m sell: zero, he is shit.
Yeah we should invest more on talents...
Chill bros. I think everyone understands that Vidal is not the ideal, he is old and may decline. But he is currently a top level player. Buying a younger player who can play at that level (say Pogba or SMS) is beyond our means right now. For a club of Inter's ambitions, we need starters who are of this level. For some who think we should buy Barella instead, he is a kid who will take at least 2 years to be able to play at that level consistently.
An analogy for this situation (I know its not perfect, no analogies are) is if we did not have Icardi, and our two options were to either buy Higuain or stick with Karamoh as our main striker. For all of Karamoh's talent, he is not ready to lead Inter's attack at the mo. It would be Inter management's responsibility that if we cannot afford to buy a Icardi (i.e. SMS) then we must buy Higuain (i.e. Vidal) for the short term and hope that young Karamoh can learn from Higuain and grow into this role.
Ideally Inter should sell Mario and Vecino, and replace them with Vidal and Barella. One top level experienced champion to teach a great young talent, who can potentially reach that level in 2 years time.
you get a Vidal and then you plan the next year a Barella and you remove a Borja
you get a Vrsaljko and then you plan the next year a Henrichs(see defenders thread)and you remove a Dumbo ?
you get a Politano and then you plan the next year a Chiesa and you remove a Candreva
this how serious teams grow...and we are hopefully doing this!
No one will do it.Why are we still beating around the bush for 2-3 mill? Get him, NOW, before someone pulls a Barca last minute.
Corriere says we can sell Vecino to Chelsea and get Vidal
edit: inter will probably talk with chelsea tomorrow
Both of them weren't in the list last time But either of the sale would help. UEFA loosen the rule for us.Selling Vecino won't help us with CL list. He's not on it, so we can't swap him with Vidal. With JM sale, we can do it.
If this all is about amortizations, then selling Vecino helps. But I doubt we will buy Vidal excluding him from the CL list. It would have to be Lautaro then who we've promised inclusion to the list too.
I also thought same thing, but someone here said that if we sell Vecino we can include him in CL instead other player, like K-dog for exm'. We sold K-dog for 25M, and if we sell Vecino for 35M, we can include him and than we'll have 10M more in CL list.Selling Vecino won't help us with CL list. He's not on it, so we can't swap him with Vidal. With JM sale, we can do it.
