The Rumour Commode XXXVI - Mission Accomplished Edition

[Kmoney]

Agree on some points but not on the GK swap being “okay”. It was much more than just okay, we wouldn’t have been in this position without MM16. It was one of the best transfers Milan has made in the last 10-15 years, especially when you consider the cost aspect

 

[Pingu]

Who in their right mind thinks Donna <> MM was "okay"? It was the steal of the millenium for goalkeepers.

 

[MilanMB]

Ale ale Milan ale!!!!

Kalulu is on all this MVP pictures.

FUCKING KALULU THE GREAT!!! He's so awesome. Fuck getting 30m Botman for the bench. Spend it on a striker instead ffs instead of getting Origi.

Kalulu at RB and first Tomori sub. I think that's where he'll land. He's been a monster, but he can still do all the great things he does out on the right and he'd replace our second weakest link after RW.

Not even kidding, I think he’s the best young defensive talent in the world right now. The next Thiago Silva

The time of the match is not known yet.

This is absolutely pathetic and unprofessional. A week from the game and it's still not official? Wtf?

The least they could do is lay out all the possibilities before Inter-Cagliari, and once one of them is set, that's it. Why delay?

He gave us more problems than any striker in last 5 games or so. I was on edge of seat any time ball was around him. I dont follow him that much or his injury history but if we wont spend big this summer on Nunez or so i d not mind him and Origi in rotation at all. Probably wont be expensive. Really mobile, strong, physical....i think for our style he d fit well. I think he has 2 good years leftin him.

He'd be such a weapon. A real handful for any defence. At times they had to double up on him. The space he could create for Leao and others gets me excited. I feel like Rebic offers much of what Origi will, so Duvan instead of Origi would be better business.

 

[brk]

so Duvan instead of Origi would be better business.

No it won't. Origi is free, younger and probably a better fit.

 

[patosheva]

duvan wont go for 30 mil or less,yes he is 32 but he will cost at least 25-30 mil.

 

[patosheva]

No it won't. Origi is free, younger and probably a better fit.

10000 % agree.

So? Can be added.

 

[patosheva]

there will be 20k Milan fans at Mapei.

Forza MIlan

Ale ale Milan ale!!!!

The way the gk faceplants after rafa gol is just tasty

 

[tonyb]

No it won't. Origi is free, younger and probably a better fit.

Because of his age and the amount he'd cost you're right. But I like the idea of bringing something new to our attack. This season, we haven't really had the luxury of being able to give the ball to the striker and they just make a goal themselves. I can only think of the Giroud goal against Inter. A chance out of nothing. Duvan with his physique can unlock the type of games we've struggled with. Relegation sides who just sit back.
Maybe we'll get that type of striker once Giroud leaves.

Nooooo! Just no!

Why would one change position of one of the best players? It's like bringing in a new LW and moving Leao to RW or something like that.

Botman will and should ride the bench as long as Tomori Kalulu are playing like this. Would be absolute vergogna to move Kalulu to RB.

 

[MilanMB]

Do people really not understand and appreciate the level we've seen from Kalulu at CB?

Why? He will still be just as aggressive, will have space to run like he wants, he crosses better than Calabria. What’s wrong with shifting him to RB and using him at CB when needed? Our RB is already a pseudo-RCB anyway.

I do! He’s been phenomenal! I’d also like him and Tomori and Botman and Theo to play together. We’d fix all our defensive issues.

Couse his prime position is rb,and he has all tools to be top rb and we will bring new cb that we need couse our rb now is shit....

Because you're moving quality. Big no-no in my book. Move Tomori to RB then, I'm sure he'd do well there.

Both moves are equally stupid.

Brk,me too .
That defence have everythig,speed stamina vers.

The problem is…Pioli is going on feel pressured to play Botman at CB. In which case Kalulu will almost by default be RB

 

[MilanMB]

What? He's been playing like a God at CB and his prime position is RB where no one have seen the same level of performances?

His prime position is CB until proven otherwise.

 

[milanator]

Even if we decide to play with one tall CB like Botman from the start Kalulu has a fair chance to play over Tomori imo, (and vice versa, not saying Tomori is worse, just a pretty even match). That being said, playing with two fast and agile CBs has done us really good, recovery speed is a key factor in this era of football, only compensated by god level positioning skills.

However form-wise cards will be re-shuffled over the summer as well, players on meh-form like Calabria might start the season in uber-form and someone like Kalulu (especially given his age) might start with meh-form.

 

[MilanMB]

And that would be bullshit. Merit should decide where one plays.

 

[Eastheaven]

I like the fact that Theo looked unscathed when celebrating that goal, at minute 75, ran across the whole pitch at full speed. Truely world class.

We agree to disagree,

Kalulu as rb will be top and it is better for him to play multipositions.

Amen, also him being a RB is only based on youth football, that players change position between youth and pro football is super common. His game at RB has more holes than at CB.

No you must agree with me.
