Ah so sports is a subset of football now.

Ok his official title is the following:
Direttore Generale dell'Area Tecnico-Sportiva
Director General of Technical and Sports Area.

That means there could well be a Direttore Sportiva reporting to him, as well as a Direttore Tecnico. One of that could be Maldini.

It was pretty well chronicled in this thread around the time of his departure. Galliani was a real father figure to him during those times. It was a proper betrayal.

But, forgiveness is equally easy, at least for me.
Oh, I didn't know that.
Yeah, after a point of time you have to move on.

Well that's pretty ungrateful of him if all that's true, though I doubt it's as bad as you make it out to be.
And obviously I didn't know all that :rolleyes:


While that bit is true, it leaves out him begging for better players and being told that the players that he had were fine.

Then as soon as he left, we went out and added Ibra, Robinho, Yepes, KPB, and then added Cassano and van Bommel in the winter.

So basically, the club did exactly what he had been begging for immediately after he was pushed out, so I can completely understand someone being bitter about that.

Donadoni: "Now I feel more comfortable, Elliott is a serious group. The return of Leonardo is a positive step, we played together in Zaccheroni's Milan.
I consider him a well prepared, intelligent person.
The fact he speaks 6 languages ​​shows that he has an extra gear”


Yonhong thought it was wise to assign Fassone and Mirabelli while he could have gone for Leo.

:lol:

I’m genuinely impressed by how fluent he is in Italian and French given that both aren’t his native or mother tongue languages

he did play and managed in both france and italy.

yeah but if you hear the italian of players like pogba or aubameyang who played here or the french of veratti who plays in france you could still see they're not at ease with the language as Leonardo is with both languages.
