Is this even a debate ?
SD now win titles not coaches ?
How many time did you have a G vs Campos debate with trophies as a deciding factor ?
Lol. General managers, SDs, etc are part of winning trophies, by the vast majority of people.

This has got to be one of your top 5 stupidest takes.

Adama traore on a free isn’t a bad bet I think. Imagine being a goal up and having Rafa and adama on wings to sit back and counter with
No thanks, Adama is just salad with more protein

There is no SD without misses in mercato,he can hit it five times in a row he will missfire in one,thats how it goes,and with our budget and wage cap its a good thing we have any decent player i our team,fortunately we have 4-5 absolutely great players who are yet to reach their prime

one of our family members was going to hire pirlo as new coach
These rumors against Maldini seems like management just scoured social media and put out stories approved by the algorithm :lol:

That means we are selling CDK and Adli at a capital loss.

Not happening.

Exactly what it was giving in his YouTube compilation.
So you want us to sign him or no?

As a starting striker? No.

As backup for Leao/Giroud and thus replacement for Rebic for € 2.5 million net per year? Yes.

With Moncada given more power, I wouldn't be surprised if Mikautadze picks up speed soon. He is the better player.

Radio rossonera says its one big sale to finance mercato. Between Theo, Mike and Rafa.

Seems like they haven't got the Memo from CdS's clarification that Scaroni meant deadwood who were on the outgoing list anyway, not starters...

Lost in all this turmoil is poor Massara who also lost his job, nobody feels bad for him? He was a loyal servant of Maldini or maybe the power behind the throne.....we'll never know. I wonder if he will still vacation to Ibiza with Paolo or they too will go their separate ways. Everybody in the business praised Massara, especially his mentor Sabatini. At some point a candidate for the Juve job, now some media mention him as possible candidate for Napoli if Giuntoli leaves. A tireless worker who hardly ever spoke publicly, but you could see his passion for Milan from his reactions on the stands.
Farewell Frederic.

Point for who said people wouldn't melt down if we were talking about someone with the very same actions, but different name. Massara was the sporting director and in fact, literally nobody seems to care.

L’Equipe: Milan join Man Utd and Inter in Thuram race and have ‘strong interest’
Thanks to Elkey, look at this report from May!

Maldini wanted Thuram. Wow. Thanks Moncada. Without you, we wouldn't have ever heard of... Thuram. Or Ndicka. Or Kamada.

I bet Moncada wanted Muani, but then Maldini said "NO!" Maldini then slapped him in the face and spit on him, and said "I trust in Origi, tell the cheaper, younger, better player... I spit on him. And you know what else, Moncada? I never want to bet on an underrated player from Ligue 1. Excuse me while I go buy Yacine Adli."

I wonder if Moncada did a video analysis of Messi, another under-the-radar free agent RW.

So glad we got Moncada to unearth these free agent gems that haven't been written by every asshole on their teams transfer wish list for every team in Europe.

Adli was paid 10 over 5 years. Meaning that current net book value i 8. Same for CDk. Puchased for 32 plus bonuses, over 5 years. NBV is not about 25/26M

Didn’t Rebic get diagnosed as having some sort of Hypochondria?

Extremely low chance that we receive a transfer fee for him. It’s a loan out with an option to buy at best.

Please don't turn this commode into a MOURNING place...

Are you hearing yourselves??!!:

- Baresi is more captain than Maldini etc etc
- Maldini won the title, oh no but is was Pioli
- who backstabbed who
- selling the best players
- why players enjoy their vacation instead of crying after a SD
-.....................and so on

Wake up....move on....

Yes I am also very disappointed of what happened to Maldini due to what he means for Milan, fans, players. his legacy......He definitely didn't deserve the treatment from this p.o.v

But the club is a business and to be prosper and achieve more, management made a decision.....a professional one. It's like in a any normal environment

Now only time will show also what is the direction Redbird want's to go with....I can only hope is for glory of our bellowed club

None of them won a Scudetto.

You act like prime Galliani didn't have bad transfers windows. Shit, what about the horrible late 90s period for Milan where we spent a shit ton and only won that Scudetto with Zac?

Would you have fired Galliani then?

Or do what Berlusconi did and keep him, so he could build that 2002-2007 team that was one of the greatest of all time?

So stop it.

Honestly Sam at this point it’s clear Maldini wasn’t fired for his performance.

It was more to do with power, friction between the management/coach and possible budget issues.

Not performance based. I really don’t think so

Adli book value would be 6 mil if they paid 10? They bought him 2 yrs ago. And Transfermarket lists the buying price as 8.5 so book value on that should be 5.1 mil

I can't stand you suddenly being in the driver's seat of the Negative Forces.

You have turned to the dark side as if Cardinale had carried out "Order 66".

My stupidest take is exchanging with you.

Am not saying SDs dont deserve credit when titles are won.
Am saying its not an indication of their efficiency.
A SD could do an amzing job & the team will be loosing & vice versa.

And Baresi is Maldinis captain. And that makes him the captain of all captains.

Just like Maldini, Baresi played for Milan his entire career. From his Primavera days in 1977 until the end of his career in 1998. He even sticked with Milan in Serie B - twice - in 1980 and 1982. He became captian in 1982, aged 22 years, but had the authority, leadership and class of a veteran already back then. Needless to talk his class on the field. Truly one of the best this sport has ever seen, both on and off the pitch. Maldini wouldn't be Maldini today if he didn't had the teacher that Baresi was to him.

For where ordinary people worship Maldini, Maldini worships Baresi. :o
I know all of this bro

But that is what people are saying, still.

They are citing reports that Maldini wanted Berardi, Arnautovic, and Pirlo as coach to prove the point that Maldini was the problem.

Not a coach who doesn't understand his own system.
