I would’ve sold him and just inserted a buy back clause incase he turns into something decent. More than likely he won’t be your future 9.
Atalanta have outgrown buy-back clauses methinks. Only provincial clubs like Sassuolo/Udinese/Genoa would agree to something like that.

One guy is saying Boss was Maldini.
Maldini gave us Bennacer, Magic Mike, Leao, Tonali, Kalulu, Tomori, Tonali, Theo, Thiaw in this kind definition.
It's natural that all picks wont work overtime or already.
I don’t care what one guy says, I believe cdk’s agent has more credibility of that said someone.

Going back to why I quoted you. What makes you so sure moncada will not make the same mistake in acquiring a talent like cdk?
Hope.
Maldini was doing great until he didnt.
Am pro Moncada until he prove me wrong.

You need to be pro Milan. Don’t go above and beyond to win an opinion about someone. The new management are doing a great job so far but it’ll be exactly like chinaboyz if they don’t address a couple of issues.

Would i be pro Moncada if i wasnt pro Milan ?
But am always half full glass.
Also why wouldnt i be more enthusiastic when the current board is moving as i expect them to move ?

Lets use Pulisic as an example. He cost 20m. His wage is 4.45m (not sure what the exact amount is) On the books, he will cost the club 8.45m for the next 5 years. That's 4m every year for his transfer fee amortization and 4.45 for his contract.
just curious I hate merceto and accounting in football because we are Berlu orphans.

But I have a general question.

We buy a player but some insist on paying entire cash up front so that cash is gone so in cash flow statement we have to put that correct?

Then we depreciate the asset in an amortized way for rest of the contract?

Or it’s mandatory to pay the money in installments or record it as amortized form even though cash was gone this quarter?

I just understand cash flow statements for companies I invest. I learned accounting few years ago myself so if there is any thing I am missing please go whole hog and educate me.

Any of my fellow fans from/in Sarajevo? The wife and I passing through Sarajevo in a month on our way to Herceg Novi (Montenegro). We're staying at Hotel Sana as we were told it's within walking distance to many things. I'm looking for a recommendation on where to get the best Ćevapi. I've had them a million times and my mom makes some amazing ones but we're looking to try them in Sajarevo. Also, any other recommendations are welcome.
When I'm in Sarajevo I always eat at Hodžić, they are perfect, the best I've ever eaten

Maldini and Leonardo fired his ass for Giampaolo:lol:


Cruel world.

Gattuso didn’t even take the severance.

He is a limited coach and looks unhealthy these days. But I love him so dearly.

Am comparing him with Tona.
Hojlund had one great season.
Tona had one bad, one great & one average season.
Hojlund is three years younger than Tona.
STs are much more expensive than B2Bs.

With both getting sold during the same,period, both are overpriced but am gonna say that Tona's price is more absurd than Hojland.
But Tonali is the more recognised player playing for the more recognised team. He is seen as high a tier a prospect (if not higher) than Rasmus. And once again, Hojlund's season wasn't that impressive.

Strikers cost more yes but the strikers that go in that range do far more than what he did.
Your estimation of the two seems slanted heavily towards the Atalanta player.

But how much do you think their true value ?

I do think there will be at least one important signing post Musah. I just hope we go nowhere near Lukaku.
I don't know, Lukaku would want to be the undisputed starter and not split time with Giroud, plus there will be no room for Okafor unless with sell Giroud. Lukaku got pissed off at Inter because Inzaghi started Dzeko ahead of him in the CL final that's why he wanted Juventus and if they sell Vlahovic that's probably where he'll end up.

Just checking if RnB is still alive, haven't read any posts in about a month :lol::lol:

I'm still on vacation, been in Finnish Lapland for a week, have moved on to Norway some days ago, precisely to Varanger, beautiful views to the Barents Sea.

@Hitchens have you been to Varanger? I'm here for the first time, mainly hiking and cycling, I love the beautiful views to the Sea. Cycling along the coastal road is really nice, those views 😍
Still have some time left here, then I'll go to Kirkenes for a couple days and will fly back home from there.

Also, I obviously watched all our friendlies even though I have to complain about the kick off times. I'm on vacation and have to set the alarm for the middle of the night to watch the games :head:
But yeah can't miss any Milan games.

Obviously seeing Giroud score a goal is totally worth waking up for.:proud:
Too bad we lost the games, maybe we'll win the next one. But It's only friendlies, so doesn't matter that much.

If they pay 20 mil for a player, they get an an asset ( the player worth 20 mil ) and pay cash of 20 mil. In the beginning total assets stay the same as cash assets decrease but non-cash assets increase.

If the money is paid in installments instead of one go, it will just increase the accounts payable part of the accounts. The asset ( the player ) is amortized over the length of the contract. The payment terms ( one go or installments ) is chosen by the two clubs involved in the deal.

I have not! But me and my wife crossed Finnmarksvidda(a bit to the west) with skis and sled and slept in a tent North Pole style a couple of years ago. I am very familiar with the map tho :p That part of Norway is quite unique. My place of work is closer to the mountains a bit further South.

is musah a "disaster signing" because of his whoscored rating? :lol:

it's clear as day the ENTIRE mgmt prioritized him. they've watching countless tape of him, likely scouted him several times in person. I think they have a better feel on who and what he is than any of us who watched him on youtube and checked what a bunch of dweebs on sofifa say about him.

if he's the player we saw at the WC, he'll be just fine
After CDK i have some doubts, his everything was much better, much more hyped, much more scouted, better youtube, better ratings.I was so happy whe we got him (just like Paqueta) but who could have know that the dude is a mental midget with all that talent.
