“In two months I will have a new team and will be physically ready. Now I have 4-5 kg overweight but since I haven’t played in a while, that’s normal”. These are words from Antonio Cassano in todays edition of La Gazzetta dello Sport. “I still speak with Ausilio and should Pioli leave Inter I have told him to bet on Guardiola or Spalletti”, Cassano continues.
What do you think of the Italian Championship? “Juventus continues to win, they are strong and have a strong mentality. But the level is at a lower point now. At the end of the nineties there were the seven sisters (sette sorelle), the seventh one had Rui Costa, Edmundo and Batistuta as attackers”.
Three overvalued players? “Pogba, James Rodriguez and Balotelli”.
Why? “Is Pogba really worth 120 millions? To me no. Rodriguez 80? No. And how much was Iniesta worth at his age? I only want the best for Mario and in France he’s doing some good things but both him and Pogba are a bit lucky having Mino Raiola as their agent. He has given them incredible opportunities”.

James is shit and Cassano realize it. I really can’t understand those guys who likes this overhyped diva toyboy.
classic interview with the best Italian player ever
You have to include to James valuation the amount of shirts he’s name sells. But Guardiola in Serie A? Lol. Antonio is a football idealist.
James is for shirt sales but he’s not a bad player $80mil is to much tho. He is young and can improve maybe he would in a team like ours without CR9 Bale and Benzema. Saw him play yesteday and he wasn’t bad but still not that great.
Not a bad player at all. I certainly didn’t mean that. Would he be the wisest buy for us at this moment? I’m really not sure about that, but I wouldn’t be bitching if suning bought him and also remembered to upgrade our defence properly.
If Banega and Perisic leave i think James would do well, we would need another quality winger tho.
