conte played 343 almost whole time with chelsea.

we actually have squad for this formation (ofc we need better mid) but can't say that i'm happy about that
on the other hand, conte will make it great, i suppose.

caldara romagnoli RR
conti kessie X X
suso higuain hakan

Suso needs to play really wide, not semi-wide, though. I hope they don´t attempt to try Suso in a 3 at the back formation, that won´t go well.

i agree if they dont want to let him go it is easy ,you wont leave but meeting more then 2 hours.

Same goes for the Lucci meetings at Casa Milan that went on forever. It all makes more sense now.

Keep in mind with Caldara instead of Bonucci Milan will save 10M+ in wages after tax

that salary will go to higuain

Kojak · Jul 24, 2018

If Leo can swap Leo for Caldara plus cash and sign Higuain or Cavani as plan B then it will already be a 10/10 mercato. Especially with the 100/10 ownership + management mercato we just had. Either one of Higuain or Cavani and we're golden.

I don't want them to fire Gattuso

Pretty sure we were near the top in chances created last season, if not at the top.

This is true

we create a lot, but had no one to finish them off or score in difficult situations other than cutrone saving our ass

higuain would give us so much, would be pretty confident of top 4 with him. dont care if we're paying 50m for a 30yo who has 3 years in him, UCL is too important and hes a top CF

Predicting lineups in the middle of the night of the long knives isn't a good idea.

Silva around 35m

Reina around 5m
Bacca around 15m
Kalinic around 20m
Plus whatever Elliott give to spend.

Not difficult right?

Don't know many guys here take the euphoria train and want to do another year zero. As far as I rememer (and I have watched every single Milan match last year unfortunately

), what we need to do is keep the good parts and imrove what has not been good. Looking at the second part of the season where the team started getting results, it could be seen that our most problematic parts were strikers and non-attacking minded left full back.

I know that we were missing fantazista in midfield, a 'real' left winger, alternative for Suso etc but looking at priorities I would say forementioned two positions are in desperate need of enforcement.

If you have static winger as Calhanoglu, you need an overlapping fullback to complement it, and when you create chances as we have created for example vs Juve and Roma at home, you need top striker to finish it.

Therefore, I think Higuain and Caldara (Bonucci replacement) will improve us defensively and make us more dangerous in final third. we will be forced to have a bit more creativity in midfield as we won't get any more Bonucci long balls, AND despreately we need a FB who can overlap the left flank with Calha (maybe this Laxalt guy, don't know)

ONLY THEN we should focus on fixing the following priorities...

Kaka92 · Jul 24, 2018

i watch options for LB and there is kurzawa, marcos alonso, telles, wendell, danny rose and that's it, good players who could be available.

maybe even theo hernandez from r. madrid wouldn't be bad if we will play with wing backs.
tbh never watch him but he couldn't end in madrid if he's bad, right

his bro is good as well but atletico won't sell him.

Rhat · Jul 24, 2018

We gonna play 3 at the back with no pre-season as Conte will arrive late?
Finish at 6th once again.

Lucas Digne, Emerson Palmeiri are not in their team plans as well.

The summer results on this US tour will probably suck seeing that our transfer window started so late. So no need to panic. A lot of coming and going will happen in the next few weeks.

we really don't need Suso imo

papaberlu · Jul 24, 2018

Laxalt would be a good LWB with Conti on the other flank

Milanista92 · Jul 24, 2018

telles + caldara + cavani + Vidal? ohh my fucking jeebus

Donato · Jul 24, 2018

Okay I just woke up and wow

- I was opposed to selling Bonucci to Juve but bringing in Caldara for him would be unbelievable. Caldara & Romagnoli will be our key defenders for 10+ years. Having Donnarumma, Conti, Caldara & ROMAGNOLI in our defense? That’s the national team right there for the next decade

- Higuain if he comes also, I was also opposed to this but this man will shoot us into a top 4 spot, guaranteed top 3 in the goal scoring charts and once he’s done Cutrone will take over.

- Conte? I mean I love Gattuso but Conte is one of the worlds best coaches and this time last year I had him right at the top. Gattuso should stay at the club, he would be fantastic to keep around woth Conte. As much as I love Rino, I hope this goes though too.

Get this deal done tonight for Caldara I’m sick of hearing Bonucci wants out

Look at it as a 3 year project.

Year 1: new management, manager and players: We will improve and attempt to finish top 4
Year 2: more new players, finish top 4
Year 3: advance to knockout round of CL

Build from there.

+ 5m Bertofodder
+ 5m Gomez
+ 5m Monty/Abate/Antonelli/Vergara/Simic/Mauri combined
+ 3m Gabriel

Halilovic can also fuck off for a 1m.

Polotelli · Jul 24, 2018

Gattuso did well, he surprised anyone I think. But Conte is a coach on another level. We need to stop doing favours to our legend and focus on what’s best for us. I’m happy with the decision of the board because it shows real ambition. I’m positive that Gattuso doesn’t need to worry about his future at all.

@PBPcalcio
#Milan
#Riso sta parlando e mediando con la juve per la situazione #Caldara.
Ribadisco quanto detto prima: c'è un'ok di massima dei 3 giocatori.

Riso (Caldara's agent) is mediating the Caldara deal with Juve. All 3 players (Bonucci, Caldara, Higuain have given their ok)

papaberlu · Jul 24, 2018

Conte took Juve from 7th to scudetto

he can take over the night before the first matchday for all I care

Higuain; 25-goal season with the Milanello diet (Pasta Si, Burger No!)

Benzema; Cristiano vs Karim for the Capocannoniere

Zaza; For the acrobatic goals

Dybala; Will always look better in Rossoneri

Morata; Your Rejects are our Queens

Pavoletti; But why not?
