While it is exciting to think we are going to get these cheap young German, Austrian or France players, those youngsters will take a ton of time adapting to Italy. If our goal is to be competitive next year, that plan is extremely risky. Let's see what Maldini and Pioli can do. If anything, Maldini didn't do too terribly last season when it comes to transfers.
That's jsut it. Italian youngsters come at a premium for a reason. Youngsters form other leagues are a risk. People like to concentrate on the success stories when looking at overseas youngsters but how many of them fail? In fact, how many experienced players fail in Serie A?
it's a hard league to adapt to.
