Maldini got 3 big players to raise the level of the group ???

Not looking to argue - just saying.
He got the autonomy that he wanted. Our opening offer for CdK was 25m + bonuses and there were reports that's the evaluation RB was comfortable with.

3 big players to raise the level of the group is a big ask - in modern day economy we are looking at a 80-100m window just for those 3 players, not to mention on fairly large contracts.

What if he got those 3 players and we didn't raise the level and we had to sell them on cut-price deals like Paqueta / Piatek? Is Maldini going to cover the loss from his own pockets? Also, what if Maldini changed his tunes and preached patience and asked for even more after he got his players? Ownership can clearly see Maldini accumulating more leverage in terms of relations w/ the fans. Barring a couple of people here, most fans attribute our successes to Maldini and not the stringent budget set by Elliot and attribute to our limitations to their lack of spending. So where do they draw the line if they let that slide?

From the ownership's perspective, we already comfortably achieved our bare minimum goal so why would they move away from their modus operandi and risk serious financial consequences just bc Maldini forgot why he was hired and started siding w/ the fans?

I was checking his history and I have not find anything except he was in the Milan 18/19 season. Bullshit.

You guys think Gerry went to Milan games and was like "wow these guys really like Pioli they love saying he's on fire" and picked Pioli to run things

Eh

We'll go back to the era of no legit rumors I would imagine

Maldini was forwarding Italian media his itinerary over the past couple years

Moncada has always been a figure out of the spotlight
Well either way I just mean I expect movement next week. Moncada works all year on recommending players. Now that he has the say I would think he’ll just go out and go after them

So scandalous that those morons insulted grande Paolo. I still cannot believe it.
Meanwhile they're far more receptive to zlatan who didn't win much with milan.

I don't think Pioli is safe, yet.
Once the new sporting director/team is in place, I think they will evaluate whom they want as the man in charge of first team.
If they watched/analysed our football over past year, I really don't think they rate Pioli as the man to take this team forward.

I doubt it was Paolo pushing for CDK, more likely it was the guys Pioli is going to be left working with.
I'm sure it was Paolo that wanted Kjaer, Zlatan and overall more experience.
Moncada will push for younger players, so I'm not sure Pioli was making a dig at Paolo. Who obviously understands the need for experience and quality. Something that got him fired.
Perhaps. I also read that Furlani wanted Dybala but Maldini did not. Not sure what to believe. All I can say is that (most likely) there is more going on than us commoders realize. It looks like there was a lot of disagreement behind the scenes.

Anger the fans, anger the players, set yourself in corner. Great fucking job Gerry. And if there are no immediate results to smooth things out. There will surely be riot, we will collapse in a heartbeat, we are very fragile atm.

Uefa threatened a 5 years ban to Juve and Juve wants to settle and so they wrote that letter to Barcelona and Real Madrid

Clamorous indiscretion published by various Spanish newspapers including Chirunguito and Relevo: Juventus has decided to give up on the Super League project. "The Italian team - has sent a letter to Real Madrid and Barcelona to inform the two clubs that the Juventus club is starting the legal procedures to leave the Super League, a bureaucratic process that will take several weeks.
There goes the dream of Juve being banned by UEFA.
I just hope FIGC does not compromise on the points penalty.

They already signed an agreement about the points penalty from my understanding. No more appeals, it's done.

One thing against Maldini: he lacks diplomacy.. confrontation is the only thing he knows and thats not a good thing.
Diplomatic ways of communicating might be the thing Maldini is most famous for in Italy.

Which makes his firm statements land like a hammer.
