I saw something that it comes out on the 22nd (tomorrow).

As for Diaz and that 30m rumor...I guess if CDK can be worth 35m, than Diaz at 30 is a bargain.
I wouldn't spend a dime on him btw. We need to move on from him as it been said. Get a proper right winger and a top CM. Forget this 4231 crap and build a solid 433.

Or 4-3-1-2 with Leao as LSS free role. Modern football does not have so simetrical attacking formations as before. That front 3 can have much more lose roles.

When you stay too long at a club, you get very comfortable with your core, like in Pioli’s case with Diaz/Messias and he’ll rather rely on them than give the new signings a chance, because he’s more familiar with them.
both pioli and the management seem to be satisfied with diaz, otherwise they would not think about signing him.
he was benched for cdk at the beginning of the season and has rightfully reclaimed his spot.
charles has definitely gotten enough chances, adli on the other hand just doesn't seem to be the type of player pioli wants or he doesn't execute what pioli expects from his AM idk. if adli is such a gem, why is maldini so eager to buy diaz?

for the RW position we have 2 'established' options: messias and saele. does it really make a difference which one plays?
and no, one one outside this forum considers charles as a RW:lol:
It’s about cycles in my opinion. For example Mourinho is literally a comfortably a better coach than Conte yet it made sense to get rid of Mourinho for Conte because Mourinho cycle with Chelsea ran out. Conte brought them the league the next season.
15/16 mourinho wasn’t comfortably a better coach than conte. he was already on the decline but yeah they replaced an elite coach with another elite coach. 0 risk. i'm all for it, if we are able to replace pioli with spaletti.
You’re looking at purely from a result perspective which I can understand but my biggest issues with Pioli goes beyond that, it’s our lack of system, style of play etc. Inzaghi was underperforming with Inter but it never felt like system broke like Pioli has right now.

I’m fine with willing to give Pioli another season if we can his kind of players, that suit his system but I still prefer to move on from him.
fair:thumbsup:

fully agree with the rest.

One thing about Kulusevski is if he doesn't step up, have we just got a very expensive Salad on the books...

I want Messias GONE and a RW that has decent output, like said Berardi type numbers... With a functional midfield, mobile striker, RW with goals and assists, plus Leao

If Maldini spends 30 m on Brahim, he should be fired right away

hope it doesn’t affect the team but I respect the curva for protesting, 80 euros is ridiculous

if the clubs need the fans then they have to make it possible for them to be there

I don’t want Charles to play all in the slightest, he’s finito in my eyes, as far as this season is concerned.

I rather see a 3rd midfielder in the CAM position. And yes I know Pobega isn’t ideal and I also blame the management for the lack of midfield quality but Diaz vs physical Inter side was suicidal.

But I get why Diaz played today vs relegation fodder team but against big teams, control more important imo. As for RW, personally I prefer Saele much more than Messias and Saele was in form lately. I find it a big deal, I don’t rate Messias.

What? You never heard of age fudging. Look up the nazio player pretending to be 20 years old. Some African dude.
Wouldn't surprise me if south Americans do the same.
Looking at some Italian players, they don't look their age either. That's why they go out of their prime after a short peak.

I know about age "fudging".

But thinking Tonali is in reality 27 instead of 23 is the most ridiculous take I have read here.

And considering this forum thats something.

Tonali does not look 23 whatsoever. He looks old as fuck for that age group.

I think we'll end up getting brahim for about 20. If he actually wants to stay RM don't really have a choice. They have no leverage to push for 30mil.

With that said, I'm not happy with brahim as a starting cam. At RW he looks quite good, but even so I see him maximum as a very good rotation option with another option. For 20mil, and countless years of decent contribution and sometimes clutch moments in big games, I am not opposed.

all this focus and blaming of diaz is going a bit too far.

pioli changed the system in january when he lost 0-1 to inter and did not field diaz. the result was the same as in the CL second leg.
inter, juve, napoli, spurs are all physically strong teams. we won against 3 of them with/thanks to diaz.

truth is inter are simply the better team this year. 4 games, 4 wins. different systems, with diaz, without diaz. same outcome.

15mil is a Kvara or an Enzo ffs with a competent scouting.
This team is being built to be self dependent which can never be done without a near perfect scouting network.
If ours cant find a better 15mil player than Diaz then all need to be fired.
Dias need to be sent back to Real, period.
You make it sound so simple. 15 mil and problem solved.

We have one if not the best scout in the world.

Yet here we are splashing 30 mil on cdk.

Bottom line is pioli and maldini want him to stay so its all about the price.

I think I wanted him here since 2016. Still going.

Only Italian worth buying.

Italians suck in general at football. So actually wanting berrardi means he must be good.

Squad is missing pieces that will make it hard to work regardless of the formation.
Also many individuals for basic positions that we have arent good enough.
We have no shield nor passer in midfield , we have no right flanker & our STs are average at best.

Am not doubting Moncada , am doubting whoever is making decisions.
Anyone want Diaz to stay isnt clueless & need to be fired.
