for sure.

i still can't understand this happened. especially from his perspective.

was it because of the money? i think real/barca/man city would have paid the same wages.

was it because he wanted Milan to get as much money as possible? again, i think bigger teams than PSG would have paid the price.

this is all so strange.

TS himself was OK with staying here. He had a lengthy contract and the only way he could leave was if Milan wanted him to.

So that's why he has gone to PSG instead of City or Barca. If he wanted to go to those clubs, Milan wouldn't let it unless they offered the 42 M.

But the most important part is, we wanted to offload Ibra. Ibra had no costumers, so we agreed PSG's offer for TS just because they promised us they'll do whatever they can to sign Ibra, which they are doing.

TS was kinda betrayed, because he has to play in a club that he doesn't care for that much. But he is making a lot of money, so financially TS is living a dream now.

Javier pastore as LCM?? Sacre blue! Zio stronzo should keep an eye on him, bound to fail there hard with his shitty work ethics.

Ancelotti should seriously quit football if he fails to win the league this time.

Well, that is what a good management team does, i like how only TS and Ibra are the two players on massive wages. The rest are nicely tucked in under the 5m per season mark.
You sure? Just cause they don't pass the 5m doesn't mean most of them aren't exaggerated to say the least...only Jallet's and maybe Lavezzi's and Motta's are somehow reasonable. Then again it's not surprising they have no other way to bring on players than to go ******** on salaries.

motta/maxwell/sissoko/menez are overpaid.


but not too crazy, not like flamini getting 4.5.

and ibra+ts are not?

the only player on good wages is lavezzi. it's strange that he couldn't get more, he'll probably ask for a raise next year.

you know, fuck qatar, but I'm tired of people singling out man city and PSG when they spend.

they have every right to spend and do whatever they want, are they twisting berlu's arm to accept? nope, berlu is rich as fuck.

leonardo is doing a fine job, 65 million for silva + zlatan? great deal. Look at his other signings, menez/alex/sirigu etc, very good players bought for very good prices.

although he massively overpaid for pastore, I guess 30 for lavezzi is fine in this market.

other clubs are spending 75 million pounds on carroll/downing/henderson, I don't see anyone saying anything.

IMO alex is a very good CB, very nice partner for silva.


lugano flopped hard, always knew he was overrated.

yes they do, just like berlusconi did in the 80s/90s and early 2000s.

just like abramovic has been doing since he took over chelsea, 50million pounds for torres just a year ago.

just like RM have been doing since they club started.

look at jube, they make less revenue and more losses compared to Milan, yet they're spending far more than anyone in italy, why? sugar daddy angelli.


as far as I know, you can get around it if you own companies that can give your club big sponsorship deals, which is a smart and simple way to get around it.

i dont really think its that simple....

also seems to be isolated with man city--psg doing these fishy ownership-sponsorship deals. thats why people give them shit. how much money have man city spent? seriously..how much?


was a FFP regulation thing around in the 80s/90s? also...its quite...stupid to compare berlusconi's milan spending during the 80s/90s economy with middleast football spending in 2012 economy. surely you can recognize this.

man city are in the PL, so their means of income will be much easier now with out the sheikhs help.

btw, apparently he told mancini that he can buy players from the money he gets from selling ones he doesn't want, which would also make sense on why city haven't made a single signing so far.

sooner or later, city will depend on themselves.

anyways, there's nothing fishy about city, they got etihad sponsors on their shirts and the airline also bought the naming rights of the stadium.

again, I dont see you giving liverpool with their american owners shit for spending 75 million pounds on carroll/henderson/downing.

or giving RM/chelsea/barca any shit either.

PSG is spending cause of the FFP...
Currently they have the revenue of a mid-table french club, nowhere near of the top clubs. That's their biggest concern now, not debt like Milan. They need to improve this revenue as fast as they can before the FFP breaks and limit their investments.

They're doing it by buying stars and building a team to make presence in CL.

I don't really have problems with clubs spending crazy, it's their choice, I will also laugh my ass off when clubs like liverpool make those type of signings.

personally, I'm just tired of hearing people singling out man city and psg, man city made everyone stfu anyways, already got a league title + cup in a short time amongst very strong competition.
