The Paratici buys have worked pretty well. More like those would be nice and do fit with the club. Perisic is the only signing since Conte’s been here that screams Conte but he was considered the best in the world in his position (even though it’s quite specific). It’s be different if he was demanding old or extremely pricy players, but I don’t think he is. Sustainability is key as you say. I’d have a different view if I thought that was in jeopardy with Conte.I get your point and can see that you really want to see success, but I genuinely believe that the world of football is changing, and in my opinion for the better. The days of WC's going to nations that have to build entire cities to host events was always unsustainable, but its only now that FIFA are standing up and listening. We all read read little Daniel's piece in the BBC last week, and why may of us will dismiss this as typical Levy, he's right. Every industry needs to be more sustainable, possibly 50 years too late in most cases, but it has to happen. A few small Conte investments as you say may be a key, but I'd wager they'd all be over 30 and at their peak, so what does that really do for our sustainability model?
