The Rumour Commode XLI: Ragnarok

[General]

you forgot to add a word here i think...."maldini some rope to with himself with"
what are you trying to say?

sorry that was a post flurry from me

Gave him rope to hang himself with

you knew what I meant

 

[Samaldinho]

There is no fucking way Gerry is so infatuated with Pioli terrorismo ball that he fired Maldini for Pioli

No way

He is bringing in Billy fucking Beane.

From Moneyball.

This is the brilliant Redbird. Who can't find a piece of land to build a fucking stadium.

Who is he? I legit never heard of him.

 

[General]

You guys are defending a guy who wants to bring in BILLY BEANE to help out. Hahahahahaha.

Holy shit. You guys shat on Maldini for lack of experience and nepotism and all sorts of shit, lol. And you all talked about the ruthless business of America's corporate strength, as if it isn’t filled with failed sons of inbred morons who inherited their wealth... and are talking about Moncada's brilliance...

And Redbird's brilliant idea is to bring in Billy fucking Beane. A baseball guy.

I can't wait for this season. I seriously can't wait.

youve got it all wrong

it’s not a binary good guy vs bad guy decision here, Sam

 

[Nalim]

This is a complete PR disaster and they've literally thrown a grenade on the team the day after season's end. The day after Ibra retires.

It shows complete indifference and a lack of respect to the players, the fans, the people involved.

Give it a fucking week, even a couple days.

This move could decide an already fractious support even more, how is that a good thing for building?

As @Samaldinho has said, the only was this ownership can now get lots of people onside is with an immediate upturn in fortune(star 2) and opening the wallet.

Any good will or patience with Gerry is now out the window...

I honestly fear the worst for this club in the short term!

There has been no official statement yet. There was a meeting and shit was leaked to the press. Were they supposed to let M&M work on transfer negotiations they’ll eventually terminate for a week before firing them?

For the record I don’t endorse the approach of RedBird but having an owner who excels at the moneyball model and a SD who prefers out of favour Liverpool and Chelsea players over moneyball transfers is a recipe for disaster.

have you researched our analytics team

 

[papaberlu]

The #Milan is in a hurry for the stadium: San Donato or Sesto by 2028/29. The two areas in the race to host the new Rossoneri home

@brk Sestoooooo

 

[Soldier_of_god]

I am with team g unit general.
Team qaas - no sorry bud.

Corporate milan going the corporate route. We are going to be run like an investment bank. Why not use LBO mode and borrow extreme amounts too like farca? Spend big on players and try to win it all in ucl? Kill it in the league consistently. Buy players of other serie a teams. Make them weaker. Make us a monoply. It will pay off in the long run. Would redbird do it?

 

[CanUNoTouch]

Who is he? I legit never heard of him.

Basically Brad Pitt plays him in a film.

 

[CDarius]

He already coached Inter and already been fired, Chelsea just hired Pochettino, Napoli and Tottenham? Sure, but are they bigger than Milan and are they more likely to win? No

No they are not but still..they are not teams like Verona/Cagliari or some other peanuts teams are being mentioned by some here

 

[tonyb]

The way redbird handle maldini sacking is inexcusable, this is ac milan not fucking waystar royco

I still don't get why they sack maldini instead of pioli first. If redbird deemed this season as a failure then pioli should be the first one to shoulder the blame. Maldini and massara didn't set up the tactic when we get raped by lazio, sass and merda

Maldini wasn't sacked for his performance.
I truly believed he was sacked for his demands, ambitions and the way he wanted to go about it going forward.

 

[King George]

Gerry is a broke ass owner and Maldini was sacked because he told the world the truth during CL match vs inter. No other reason other than ego.

 

[Kranjcar]

What makes me really upset and find very disrespectful is the communication. Even if they decided to let Maldini go they should have come with the clear statement and the position. The fact this is coming from the media means they have no clue what they are doing. Not only incompetent but also disrespectful toward players, fans and history of the club!

 

[Samaldinho]

Well I tend to be a glass-half-full guy, you show me a player linked to Milan and I will try my best to see how he fits and improves the team. I've done the same with Kamada. Neither player is my first choice

I don't think it had anything to do with one poor mercato, which I'm sure didn't help, but a fundamental disagreement over how things should be run

If the guy writing the checks wants Milan to be run like Toulouse 2.0 then he gets to make it Toulouse 2.0

And that's fine if you don't want to give them a chance, they have certianly scorned the fanbase. Completely understandable

Did you just describe yourself as a glass half full guy?

I think the fundamental difference is over who is competent and who isn't.

Pioli fucked up, but he's getting full trust. The guy who used the 424 no matter what. Mr. Certo.

Fine, keep him, but you are going to fire Maldini?

Look, they wanna run it like Toulouse, great. But you can't run Chanel like H&M, or Rolls Royce like Honda. Different brands need different approaches.

Billy Beane is coming to town though. Can't wait to find out what Leao's WAR is.

You guys

the sky can’t fall more than banter era

has no one here been battle tested over the last decade?

it’s not a binary good guy vs bad guy decision here, Sam

When you're being this incompetent, it is.

 

[DeNiro]

The adventure for the Rossoneri of Junior Messias could have ended on Sunday against Verona: according to today's edition of the Gazzetta dello Sport, in fact, among the Milan players due out this summer, there is also the Brazilian winger, author in this season of 6 goals in 36 appearances.

PLEASE BE TRUE!

Did you just ask me if I've done my research on our analytics team?

 

[Ash-ish]

Bro I am more disgusted than when inter molested us while singing cl music. I hate this sports. Americans need to start another war mfers get bored after a while

 

[King George]

They're going to replace theo with antonee robinson next aren't they?

Wtf are you talking about Billy beane ? We are going to be prime milk cow.

Default you bitches go bankrupt

that’s either remains to be seen or it’s true of maldini/pioli

How do you not see this

Banter era was a great era for masochists. Amazing mediocrity all round with everything we approached.
Enjoyed that era to an extent. For once we got to feel like a small club trying to compete with the big boys.

Only way up from now on.

 

[taura]

The official communications of the exemptions of #Maldini and #Massara will also arrive in the next few hours. An important era closes at #Milan

[Shiby]

Kevin Garnet will be hired as a motivational speaker.

Bill Simmons will be the head of PR deaprtment.

 

[Nalim]

If you're content with all this, cool...

I’m not content but coherence is key. If the people leading the operation pull in different directions the club can’t move forward.

what’s the problem

 

[Deep Fried Pizza & Chips]

Watch all the Cuck result babies gleefully relish the idea of new shiny toys, only to spit the dummy when Gerry goes radio silent and his new mouth pieces explain to us the importance of patience...

This isn't a good day people...
