Transfermarkt has Baldanzi at 1.70 and Dybala at 1.77 but anyway what worries me is that i feel that we are so close to win again the Scudetto, i don't want to lose itbecause we fucked up another mercato with youngsters who are yet to be tested at a certain level
Interesting although every other source lists him around 1.76cm. Anyway, Messi is 1.70cm so height means fuck all in football. Like I said before, he's a signing for the future but would be able to contribute immediately given that he played very well for Empoli this season PROVIDING we sign another starter e.g. Kamada/SMS.

You thank Reid Krunic

It was at this moment, Leao came to a moment of clarity and said "fuck it Im going to renew"
Yeah without Krunic we would be in Europa league. We keep agnelli in our prayers too.

Baldanzi, Kamada, Adli and CDK are too many for one spot, considering we also have Alexis and Messias on the right so is not like we can easily move one of them to RW

Kamada and Adli (if he is not loaned) as AM could work very well given the chance. CDK insists he is an AM or F9 perhaps he will prove effective and prove us all wrong. I still think he could work best at free RW/F9.

Baldanzi I don’t know well enough from what I have seen he seems to be able to make quick and decisive decisions. So I’m not certain options are always good. What will be funny is when Diaz returns to Madrid to play RW and not AM.

I can see Milan looking at various options in key roles. I’m just happy Milan have extended Leao and hope they keep the core strength of the team and build around it make Milan’s attack more dynamic and less predictable.

Forza Milan ⭐⭐❤️🖤🏆
Kamada being a Milan fan makes me so happy, and while I hope we keep Adli (and actually play him) I want to see CDK being tried either as a Gakpo-like CF or as a RW like we played Brahim, with a more CM oriented CAM (like... Kamada or Adli?) I think CDK would look much better in those spots. That is where several coaches and scouts from Belgium have said he is best suited to play.

I think Real and Milan are posturing as I think Maldini wants to pay 15m for Brahim, and Real want more than 25m for him.

I think Messias might go, while Rebic and Origi look like they're also gone, so there's actually a lot of space to fill.. but I can see where it'd be useful to have SES/Leao, Kamada/Adli, Sales/Brahim/RW with CDK and Brahim floating in several spots, because I think they want to use more subs to impact games, more rotation like we did with Ben/Ton/Kes last year in CM.

I think they want to make a more consistent push in the CL whilst not destroying Serie A chances.

He also said that he likes the city a lot and wants to live here for many years and that he considers Ibra like an older brother

Haha, calm down.

Firstly, I believe Zola was world class. Regardless of what he won. Which I said was nothing and I stand by. Given his talent he didn't win as much as he should've. The same applies to SMS, who at least has time to change that. Even now, he's won a Coppa Italia I believe. My point wasn't that achievements make you world class. It was the opposite. That I think some players fall out of that strict rule that MR is saying. World class players don't have to go and play for the best teams to be considered world class. There are players that never played for the very best teams but were good enough to and would've won more had they.

Are you telling me SMS hasn't been good enough to make the move to a big team in the past? I can't explain why it didn't happen. Perhaps he didn't push for it hard enough, the club priced the big boys out and maybe he lacked the hunger and was just happy in Rome..I just watch a player and judge their ability and what they can offer. Maybe he isn't world class. But he's one of the best players in the league and for a good price. You aren't getting any better players at that price, that's for sure. So of course we should be over the moon if we get him at 30 mil..
Zola was a very good player, not sure if I would call him world class. Sadly, all I remember of him is a red card at a critical moment in a WC game.

I think most debates over who is world class stems from differing definitions.

I define "world class" as being top 10 in your position, in the world.

I haven't figured out a great definition though when speaking about historic players, so, as usual, my insight is useless, academic, and inappropriate for the task at hand.

I totally agree but selling CDK is going to be hard if we want to avoid a minusvalenza
I want us to keep him, unless we get an offer that recuperates our money .. Kamada will be here hopefully and we’ll have the two of them for AM.. invest our money in CM, RW and CF.

CDK is talented no doubts… his problems are tactical and psychological imo .. we give him another chance, and if he fails and becomes completely worthless, then shit happens. It’s not the first time we lose money like that. Fuck it lets trust him and continue the hope

I know Baldanzi is your guy, but Dybala could always pass, even when he was young at Palermo.

That's the thing that really gives me pause on Baldanzi. The kid doesn't show the inclination towards passing. I feel like passing (in our attack) is our biggest weakness. Obviously, Adli is the answer to that, but... if Baldanzi becomes prime Dybala, sure, let's go, but... he doesn't look like a pass first kid.

Pafundi has better passing quality in him, out of the two young Italian talents.

I would love for a Milan fan to come here and become our Dybala, before he fizzled out. I just feel like he enables Pioli's worst dribble-and-pray soloist "tactics."
Honestly speaking I don't know what you're talking about...study this performance vs. Inter carefully and you'll notice that both his passing and decision making is first rate. In fact, he doesn't hesitate or overdribble ONCE and always makes the right decision. It's rare to find an Italian player with this much confidence aged 20 (especially against a big team like Inter). However, one thing I HAVE noticed is that he's on a completely different wavelength to the rest of his teammates so maybe sometimes he's forced to hold onto the ball for longer because nobody's available.

Who knows if he would contribute or not..the fact that he played for empoli means fuckall. Tonali also played for Brescia in serie a for a year and struggled most of the first season

Ditto for Kamada who could be another CDK/Origi and every other fucking signing in history.

I don't like it, Baschirotto and Orsolini mediocres at best and they are 26 already, Morata and Scamacca are not reliable enough imho, Zaniolo would play RW and CDK and Kamada would play AM and Rebic earns too much for Lazio no way Lotito takes Rebic
