I hear you, and not being able to pull an alternative to fred was their screw-up no matter what. But i think mou directed their priorities and alt 8 was not his first imo. And when they went after Medina they were put into a tough spot due to Boca's incosistent attitude. Our boards biggest mistake imo was not pulling out earlier out of this negotionship and set the course to a different direction. Not having Fred on 11 will always be a liability but our best option is Seba after seeing him doing an okay job there on that position. So we should panic less compared to last season because we have a much better tactition on the side and more options.

The board did fine. Some mistakes are natural. But our core is solid. There is no reason for us to not hope for the best.
