Thank you!
Could you or someone else put a table with the cost from last season. We could see how much we reduced our bill!
It's there, just open the google sheet link and there is bottom tab for the last 3 season.
Here's the summary for the last 3 season.

I don't think we can really blame marotta/ausilio for failure to offload our deadwood. Its already hard before covid, now it become mostly impossible. Even good players in top clubs like real or barca dont have bid. Players like isco, coutinho are good players with top experience but no club have bid for them. Of course their salaries alo have factor. Thats the same with our deadwood who has big salary relative to their ability.

Releasing hakimi was simply due to the circumstances. There was a deadline and the offer available was only for hakimi. Had offer to lukaku came first, we would have sold lukaku to meet the deadline and did not sell hakimi. Then again, had that happe , the price would not have been 115 mio. It would have been much lower. We only got that high because chelsea knew we do not want/need to sell lukaku. Hence they need to bid high.

Yeah and Hakimi move was done in July. Looking it now, it looked like a hasty decision. Actually I said it already in June it is a hasty decision. We should have put all our transferable assets on sale and the club who bids the most will get the player. Lukaku would have been gone but we would have had Hakimi now. Oh well oh well. Zhang has different ideas.

Don't have one.
I don’t believe for a second we wouldn’t have sold Hakimi if we had sold Lukaku first.
I really don't believe that, psg would just increase their offer, and he would have been sold anyway, even if lukaku was first. You have to remember zhang dictates who is gonna get sold, at least this mercato, and as we can all see everyone is up for grabs if a huge offer comes.

If i was Lautaro i would ask 8m or request for a transfer elsewhere. Same for Barella. It's not they're fault that the club is poorly managed,

We would not get 115 M from Lukaku if we put him on display. We are lucky Chelsea are desperate to sign a striker and we are unlucky we must register a plusvalenza in July so it sort of balances out.

I don't understand what management is thinking, our midfield is absolutely fucking awful outside the starters. We would be fighting to survive relegation if we had to field our bench midfielders, and we didn't even try to get Locatelli and he went pretty cheap to Rubentus.

How is Zaccagni still at Hellas Verona? I thought Napoli pretty much signed him.

I would really like us to try to sign him. Specially if we are going for the 3511 formation. From what I've read Verona value him at 15m so maybe we could reduce that by adding Salcedo or Radu.

Why are we still considering doing business with Cagliari?

Marotta basically hinted it's mercato chiuso. Above everything else, i feel sorry for Nandez. He did everything he could to join Inter but in the end it wasn't enough.

It seems we close the Mercato. How much do you rate it?

I give a solid 6/10. I would give 9, had we not sold Hakimi. Terrible transfer (irreplaceable), terrible price (for his potential), and terrible time (TOO SOON. He is 22yo, still has FIVE years before reaching his peak price). That transfer alone drags the whole rating down.
