The Rumour Commode XLI: Ragnarok

Its not without a reason to fire him. Last mercato (with money or not) was a failure, i've said it already.
But, to judge someone like that, you need to do your job well first.
This american trash did nothing good for the club so far

 

[Rossonero10]

The thing that concerns me is, Maldini goes public 4 weeks ago, saying this:

“Although we are playing in a Champions League semi-final, we are not yet at the level of the best clubs. We have to make investments now, to reach that level and not risk taking steps backwards,”

Then 4 weeks later he is staring down the barrel…

This is going to be a long off-season

 

[Ash]

Lmao Arnautovic + RLC really? WTF were M&M thinking?! Even Kamada is a foolish signing especially when there’s a real possibility of landing SMS.

Real possibility of landing SMS...on what budget exactly?

I vividly remember being shit on by a large majority by saying he was unfit for such a big roll before he even got it.

I love paolo. I wanted and still want him here. But he was never suitable for the role he was given. That comes only after yrs of experience.

He paid the price, unfortunately

how many years did it take him to win a scudetto

 

[AndreiX]

Inb4 the search for an sd keep going for the entire summer and they finally announce one September 7th. Oh well we wanted to invest 200m but we just didn't have an SD, maybe next summer

 

[papaberlu]

Yeah it was always gonna be either him or Pioli.

In my case I wanted it to be Pioli, I think he’s the one that failed bigger. Firing both would have been catastrophic.

If Pioli fails again next season he’ll be sacked too

Don’t get those who want the project to suddenly fail btw, get a fucking grip brothers. We are all shocked and many of us are upset, but we should still want Milan to do well and still hope that whatever comes out of this, our club can somehow be better from it. I have low expectations but hoping the project fail because our legend got sacked is not it

In an ideal world Pioli is fired, Moncada takes Massara's role, and Maldini decreases responsibility

Oh well hope for the best

Absolute hate how Maldini was treated

 

[Deleted member 24225]

Ibra and Paolo leaving within a day, it hurts.

But people who say they'll not watch Milan anymore are clearly overreacting. For me Paolo is Milan and I don't want him get kicked out like that, but I can and will not stop supporting Milan with all my heart.

To everyone who wants to have their meltdown and insult other people, you can have your fun, won't make your life any better. I'll wait and see what happens next before I judge these changes at Milan.

 

[voom]

Who is Zanetti? Is that the 6th or 7th best RB of all time? I keep forgetting about him.

Anyway.

Yes, I'm not saying that Maldini had to stay no matter what. I'm saying that if you make a decision this big you have to win, right away. You lose patience from fans when you fire the SD who built this team.

They will first try to replace ,Kessie and Hakan. 100% sure about this.

 

[justhope]

Yeah, they do. It’s sad but it’s true. Italy has more emotional attachment to their clubs than any other country I’ve seen and the fans feel entitled to more of a say but that’s not the way in most of the world and certainly not in American businesses.

so, you say you are ok if cardinale starts selling a star player every summer and just keeps the club afloat until he finds another buyer to make a profit?
omg..

 

[CapitanoMaldini]

Elliott got the club for peanuts, they needed the stability and fans behind them. They were able to right the ship, financially, in management and on the field. They also found lightning in a bottle for a season and we won a completely unexpected Scudetto.

The Scudetto was great but it added expectations and our management also completely fumbled the first mercato after the Scudetto. Last year most expectations had us in 3-6 spot, we won it all. That was not a Scudetto winner on paper guys…..

 

[Samaldinho]

Im with @Samaldinho 100% that pioli can't stay if moncadismo is the plan.

Then again, I think they're waiting on a sporting director who will then change the coach.

I'm not even sure if going with a Moncada approach even works in Serie A, because unlike Ligue 1 or the Bundesliga, there is a real fight over those top four places.

Dortmund and Leipzig can coast in Germany because of how big the disparity between them and the rest of the league is. Ligue 1 is absolute turmoil after PSG.

But I also think that firing Maldini brings so much heat on you. You're betting on yourself. And if you win, people will forget about this, including myself. But it's such a huge swing, it is crazy to me.

 

[Buske]

Stop fucking twisting this into a good move. Even after a failed mercato, he deserved to get another chance. He won scudetto, improved this team drastically however you look at it

 

[La Chupacabra]

What a trash way to crash back to banter era in 1 hour. Kroenke, Glazers, Todd all pricks but Gerry is the biggest idiot out there. Maldini is Milan right now, it is not only "mercato" merits or demerits, he is the spirit of this team, the backbone and foundation around whom you need to upgrade. Without him you get Fiorentina or Atalanta level of shit, cant believe this is happening... Mike the first to go, Leao and Theo wont be far behind.

 

[General]

The family aspect is a huge part of why people are drawn to this club, though.

They have to win next year now. If you're going to fire the most trusted person at the club, you have to succeed, immediately.

Family at the expense of performance??

there is a hierarchy of good in these situations and Gerry just laid the prioritization out. Perform

we would all be satisfied (and Maldini would have a job) if we win the league

 

[Master Smurf]

milan is also built on glory

its not just emotional send offs and family


we want to win

We want to but it doesnt seem like he does.

Did he remove Maldini for the CDK gamble? If you didnt like the players purchased does he truly believe we couldve closed many better players for cheaper ?
Does he believe Pioli is good enough to constantly build systems to incorporate any player found on a bargain and make us win?

I'm sure it wasnt Maldini holding up the conclusion of deals but if it was then lets see the new order. Every move Gerry has made has been incorrect in my book and people kept out hope that there was a grand design but it doesnt looks like it. This was the summer he was going to start making moves .... well you cant get any bigger than that one

Here we go

 

[papaberlu]

Longo on ig says that Kamada is also esteemed by Moncada, sources close to the player hope he doesn't jump due to the great work done to date by all parties. Loftus Cheek to see, missed meeting today. Possible insertion of a figure to manage team relationships

Furlani wanted Dybala in the summer and contacted the agents, Maldini's words on cdk - Dybala were seen a little badly for this too. Redbird looks a lot at the result and has made this decision, Moncada had already been told about everything for a while

Ibraaaaa

Mostly, an owner (esp the millionaire one) do not manage their own business

 

[General]

That’s not your call (obviously)

and if the change provides an improvement, Gerry will prove himself

 

[Kuroha]

This summer is your dream scenario bro. You wanted Moncada? You got him.

Let's see Moncada the SD. Can't wait to see all the new Enzos, Muanis, Botmans, can't wait to see who we get.

Can't wait to see Pioli unleashed.

Do you mean, fired?

 

[CapitanoMaldini]

so, you say you are ok if cardinale starts selling a star player every summer and just keeps the club afloat until he finds another buyer to make a profit?
omg..

Where did I say that? Cardinale bought the club, he has a right to exercise his vision. Trust me, if he sells our star players and we tank, revenues will tank. He paid full price for the team, not an Elliott situation. He needs to succeed for his investment to be worth anything.

He is objectively the most invested person in this club, this is business, it’s not personal.

 

[Rossonero10]

Why is everyone suddenly acting like the media know shit about any of our targets?

“RLC, Kamada, Arnautovic are all Maldini”. None of you really know what the plan is/was

 

[patosheva]

Moncada sd
Tare ds hahahahahahahahahahahahaba

 

[papaberlu]

Media has been on the ball about Milan for 2 years now

They've known everything

Same shit over and over again
HE DONT INVESTTTTTTT
HE DONT INVESTTGTTT

we won last year
they sacked paolo maldini because he didn't win back to back scudetto? that is ******ed

 

[Samaldinho]

Family at the expense of performance??

there is a hierarchy of good in these situations and Gerry just laid the prioritization out. Perform

we would all be satisfied (and Maldini would have a job) if we win the league

Then that means we should expect nothing but excellence and winning this upcoming season, no?

 

[General]

Guys… pioli proved himself last year… if he has another year like this, he will be sacked mid year

 

[Bagheera]

Im with @Samaldinho 100% that pioli can't stay if moncadismo is the plan.

Then again, I think they're waiting on a sporting director who will then change the coach.

Waiting? I though they had a plan which would surely include having their SD and his choice of coach ready to take over tomorrow?

So many pages... Wtf happened?
