One of the things that happen to you when you play under a coach who knows what he is doing.
Thats bull shit.
I was told that bioli is the only coach in football that can develop players.

Maldini shouldn’t pay any amount for Diaz

If Madrid want him to stay here on loan for another season fine but we don’t have much money to pay for 15 million for Diaz. That’s 1/3rd our budget and would be very stupid to waste it that way
It might well be our entire budget if we don’t make UCL

Yes dude. I am a huge fan.
My username is actually from that game.
I spent ungodly number of hours playing AoE2. What do I do if I want to play it these days? I only have a mac at home

Lol he also redeemed Florenzi + Messias and renewed Ibra, Baka, Salad, Krunic etc. despite mediocre performances or not playing at all.


He got emotionally attached to Florenzi, Messias, Baka, Krunic, Salad, but not to all the other players that left?? Why, because these ones were so good looking and nice???

Do you think management would be signing all these mediocre players if the owners gave them 20-30 mil to spend for each position? Obviously there are management fuckups like Origi and some players not working out ( CDK ). But weren't you against Bennacer and Theo signings as well? According to you management didn't sign a solid player like Sensi and cheaped out to get Bennacer instead and Theo was supposed be "bench player" who was nothing special!

And how the fuck is Baldanzi with 4 A / 0 A for 15 mil better than Diaz with 6 G / 7 A for 22 mil? That makes no fucking sense! It would be one thing if Baldanzi had other things, like if he was bigger and stronger than Diaz, but he's even shorter!

SMS, on the other hand, I can see the good points of signing him for 35-40 mi as he's been one of the top mids in Serie A the last few years...

He's not fast.

He's a child's drawing of Ibrahimovic with crayons.
So you are saying ina few years when that child grows up he will be Ibrahimovic?

Lot of words for “the next Ibra” :o

Found this guy to have remarkable stats in terms of tackles and interceptions. 4 assists too. Lecce midfielder.

This guy and Joan Gonzalez. Rumored we were interested earlier this year

I had more faith in Udinese than in the Italian justice system.
Now we need to hope they lose enough points for us to be 4th.

Only hope is that Atalanta beat Inter and Milan beat Juventus
That would be the crème de la crème though

What do you think about Girouds footballing skills? Do you think he's got a great hold up play, passing, dribbling, speed, stamina. You know, important things for a striker.

Since you're gonna answer no on all off the above, do you not see how he ruins attack after attack? Service goes both ways, a team expects it's forward to be able to do certain things. Not to be a pile of shit and score a goal here and there.

As bad as Giroud is, forget about 25 goals, he would need to score at least 40 every season to make up for the pile of dogshit he is.

Inter has their greatest ever legend, the not even top 5 at RB and ode to mediocrity Javier Zanetti, to do a stupid fucking dance in the most cringe video on the planet and it isn't plastered all over here?

This is the absurdity of this place.
I’ve been accused of being too serious in my life.

PLOT TWIST- what if Inter finish outside top 4 and lose the Champions League Final?

Another plottwist: If both Inter and Roma finish outside Top 4 but both win their finals, the fourth placed team wouldn't enter CL but only the first three teams since no nation can nominate more than 5 teams for CL.

So finishing 5th before Juve's point deduction might not be enough after all... eventhough I think it's very unlikely that Inter happens do drop out of Top 4 while winning against City and Roma winning the EL too.

Openda is coming from the French League, not the Belgian League, plus his playing position is more specific than CDK. Scammacca had one decent season in his career with 16 goals followed by a complete flop season. He's a bigger risk. Even if it's just a loan, it could wreck the whole of next season for Milan.

Better to get Openda for 20-25 mil or Firmino for free. Firmino has 10 goals and 4 assists this season in EPL and 2 goals in the UCL, even while not being the 1st choice striker. Very little chances of Firmino flopping as he's been solid for many years in a row, playing at the top level.

Thijs Dalinga also looks good and Milan could sign him for cheap from Toulouse.

The striker position is too important to trust someone coming off a super flop season, even if he has chances of turning good. It would be like another Origi type signing.

Scammacca might be ok as one of 2 striker signings with the other being someone like Openda, Firmino, Dalinga,...... And Milan would need to sign 2 strikers with Zlatan and Origi both leaving.
I haven't even watched a highlight vid of Openda, if he's the choice, I hope he smashes it.

I'm not advocating Scamacca over any of the young strikers that have been mentioned before, I honestly haven't watched them. I started liking Scamacca two years ago when he was at Genoa, as I like his skill-set as I think its rare to have someone play the 9 role like that.

I think that Scamacca represents an opportunity to have an Italian player, which helps with our lists, but I also think that due to his bad time at West Ham, he can come to Milan on favorable terms. Terms with loan+option that would allow us to put more of whatever budget we have into other areas, such as CM and RW.

Obviously, it would be better to have gotten Scamacca last year instead of this one, but I don't think that there is some guarantee that Openda (or whoever) will automatically do better because of their most recent season was strong. With strikers, especially, I like to see more than one good season, and for Scamacca, I think he scored pretty well for Genoa before really pushing up a gear for Sassuolo, I think he showed progression and growth.
