If we have really give them Cassano and 7 mil and relieved them of Pazzini, then they have already beaten Milan in this deal, no matter what happens in the rest of the season.

BTW, did Cassano play a full game ever since his return?

He is always dropped after 60 or 70 minutes. Is this his permanent condition from now on?

here and there!
I watch football for around 15 years. Milan has never been so weak! Sad, sad, coming from a non-Milan fan.

Average attack, and very very weak midfield and defense.

The Euros ended July 1st.. Well over by the 20th.

Cassano was bitching during the Euros, but made it clear he was leaving right after Ibra + Silva were sold. Again, that's more than enough time for G...

How is Cassano worth 2 mill? He played great during the Euros and well for Milan before the injury? He's 29... With the prices players are going for nowadays, i'd say he's worth 5-10 mill.

And if he is worth 2 mill, then Pazzini would be worth 500k.. and I say that in all seriousness, no trolling.

cassano's worth is not relarted to his talent.

He had a heart condition. Can;t play 90 and has burnt bridges EVERYWHERE HES PLAYED.

It pains me to see Balzaretti - he's so good. I can't believe B&G cheaped out on him.

If only Roma had a defense... they're definitely the most entertaining team in Italy by far. Fiorentina come second.

Been falling in love with Osvaldo the current season. Think he's the best Italian forward in Serie A currently.

It's just Zeman approach that always left a lot of space for the opposition. Defense is not that bad...

Fiorentina sadly drew at Chievo, hopefully by Jan they'd have a good CF in place of Luca Toni. Caught the first half only, was okay. Chievo are a renaissance under their new coach.

Yeah I meant if only they could defend as well. I really like Castan, I believe he's been having a good season so far. But the high line defense is a joke at most matches, especially Juve and Bologna. Good to see that Burdisso is dropped... he's so slow and error prone, basically just ill suited to the high line. I think even Zeman said it recently.

Totti for the 3rd! :beer: And they still have Destro on the bench too, he's another one I really like. They're a joy to watch.

I hope Fiorentina, Roma, Lazio and even Inter all finish higher than Napoli. I'm actually pretty sure they'll crumble sooner or later; hopefully Lazio can keep up the consistency, Roma can outscore their opponents, and Fiorentina purchase a good CF in Jan.

Napoli play the worst most boring and uncreative football out of all the clubs fighting for CL. Defend with 9 bastards and pass to Cavani. Boring, overrated team. They'll struggle soon.

Osvaldo. :proud: I'm telling you guys this is Balotelli's partner. Excellent CF with very good technique.

Roma are leading after being 2 down. :dance:

The issue with Cassano is sending him to Inter and including 7 million for Pazzini.

If the rumors were true that he wanted to be back in Genoa see if either Samp would have considered taking him back, or see if Genoa would considered him for Merkel or something.

It is just really annoying we felt the urge to spend 7 million on a backup striker when our midfield is so poor, for that money we could have improved the mid

2 years ago we revived Juve by sending Pirlo, this year we did that by sending Cassano to Inter, thankfully we're out of WC players otherwise who knows what would happen to rest of the Serie A.

The reason Cassano left is that Allegri didn't make him feel important, that's all. It would have been logical to make him focal point of the team after Ibra left, as he was by far our most creative player. Instead Allegri didn't guarantee him a role, and Milan gave the number 10 to Boateng.

Strama knows how to perfectly treat Cassano. He makes him feel important, plays him even when he's unfit and makes him focal point. A guy like Cassano needs love and he has that at Inter, that's why he's doing well.

Unique talents sometimes need special treatment, like Leonardo did with Ronaldinho. Some of them are so flawed that you have to treat them specially otherwise they turn to shit. Allegri didn't seem into that kind of thing especially since he quickly got rid of Dinho.

So yeah Allegri couldn't deal with him and now Inter can, that's why he's doing great.

And we don't know what happened between Cassano and Galliani. It could be that Galliani promised him a new contract or something when he was out with the heart surgery, then didn't fulfill it, or it could have been just an agent trick to force his way out as quick as possible. But it was obvious Allegri didn't think much of the guy otherwise he would have made him feel important.

What?

Cassano clearly said he had a problem with someone higher up than Allegri.. That'd be Galliani who claimed "Oh yea, we're going to return to the summit of football" and then promptly sold all of our good players.

Allegri never had any time to make this guy feel important.

I'm sure the problem was with Galliani, it was openly discussed by both rabbit face and bald-ass.

I'm happy for Cassano. He's a good player and a good guy, he did what was best for his career. He always did well for us when called upon and never spoke ill of the club in general or the fans.

I like him and respect him. :thumbsup:
