Astroblack Posted June 12 Share Posted June 12 I expect Como to struggle next year with the demands of European football and end up near the relegation places. Likely to be Paz's last season at the club(26-27) and Fabregas will probably do one more year(27-28) before taking a top job somewhere else. Reminds me very much of Malaga.

GeordieDazzler Posted June 12 Share Posted June 12 Como need to sign some actual Italians if they want to have a prayer of meeting the UEFA squad requirements. Played a completely overseas XI and sub nearly every week. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldtype Posted June 12 Share Posted June 12 It's all less stressful this summer because I have less reasons to fundamentally question the competence of the people making transfer decisions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might want to look at who Como is backed by. Because 35m is pocket change lol. Granted considering this story comes from Graeme Bailey I don't think it's anything to worry about tho.

Their most expensive signing ever is £20m. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their owners are worth about 50 billion. They can afford it and he's exactly the kind of player they've been targeting (19-23, with a Spanish focus). They do have an issue of complying with UEFA FFP rules however and could probably do with bringing in more domestic talent. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBrownBottle Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 If last summer should have told everyone anything, it’s that a season of European football - even in the most elite competition - isn’t enough of a motivating factor for most players. The lad isn’t picking Como over us unless we’ve low-balled his pay package. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granted considering this story comes from Graeme Bailey I don't think it's anything to worry about tho. The thing is though, now they are in Europe they have to adhere to SCR rules. I’m not sure if Serie A has financial restrictions, with the financial state the league is in it would very likely be detrimental if they do, but UEFA have it covered.

Pretty sure the rules the Premier League has in place to hold us down don't apply to Italian clubs mind. Correct me if I'm wrong and they have similar things in place but this seems like a strange comparison to make. There's a reason Como have flown up the league and it's not because it's a pretty place to live in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And of course they have now qualified for Europe and will be directly affected by UEFA rules. Edited June 13 by healthyaddiction Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

After that it'll be a right-back you'd think? Could see us try and get someone who can play both full-back positions to save having to sign two this summer.
