Absolute BS. Ignore everything he says.
Andrea Longoni is saying after Gerry attended Milan-Roma on Sunday, he flew to the Persian Gulf on Monday to talk to an Arab group that is connected with Maldini. He can't share the name of the group. This group would like to buy full control of Milan by the summer. Maybe Red Bird could stick around as minority owners or with some incentive with the new stadium being built. Take of it what you will, he's been reporting this for a few months now.

Jonathan David will be in his last year of contract and we know Moncada has a crush on him. I think he is our first choice, Zirkzee seems all media
From what i know we don't want him cause he doesn't suit our style, ( Furlani said David is not a real CF )

That might be true, but Conte does like Second Strikers like Vucinic for example or Lautaro

I feel like David plays a lot like Jovic.

I want speed in our next striker, I think it would open a lot of room for Leao and Pulisic.

It wouldn't make sense for Redbird to sell without a Stadium now.

Julien Laurens (of ESPN) who seems pretty dialed in with French players is reporting that Benzema wants to leave Saudi.

EPL teams are obviously a candidate, I wonder what Benz would look like in our setup?

Let´s hope that Giroud extends for one more year, what he offers for 4m net is just too good to loose and he could be a mentor to his successor. New ST, Giroud and Jovic wouldn't be too much imo if we use Okafor as a winger predominantly.

Benz in Giroud´s place doesn't seem too extreme a change, Giroud is not a poacher. I don't like him as a person but if we get him for 2 years on an ok wage it would be a good move.

On a sidenote I don't understand why Saudi think signing players for hundreds of millions in wages will raise their profile, most of them seem to want out already. If I was them I would had currupted UEFA officials to make the Saudi league join the CL thats the only way they will ever be competitive :lol:

To be honest this might be the first step in making that happen...

People here would expect mobility he had 10 years ago, and would then be disappointed and hate on him

You don’t understand. What Conte wants, Conte gets. The numbers don’t matter in the end, we will have our good mornings.

I’m just curious how Leao fits tactically. Only way is probably a 343, with Pulisic on the other side. Either that or he turns him to a second striker next to Lukaku.
As much as I don't like, nor want Conte, it would be fun to see how this team would perform under him:

CF - Jovic/Pulisic

Theo - Tiji - Adli/Bennacer - Ruben - Musah

GM - Thiaw - Tomori

Mike​

That backline is tailored made for him.
Theo and Musah tearing up the sides with their big engines and that midfield packed with creaty mids.

If we do end up with Conte, it's going to be adapt or die for Leao, and I feel that he is more likely to "die" than adapt.

Doesn't feel like a Conte midfield, he would probably add 1-2 defensively strong and physical players. Generally I would not be sure about like half of our midfielders under Conte. RLC, Adli and Reijnders don't scream Conte picks exactly.

Looking at what he played for example:

Juve: Pirlo, Vidal, Pogba
Italy: DDR, Giaccherini, Parolo
Chelsea: Kante, Fabregas, Drinkwater
Inter: Brozovic, Barella, Vecino/Eriksen/Vidal

His mid at Inter is maybe the closest to our players, but still our current mid would be by far the most lightweight in his career. I am pretty sure he would put in a typical Conte addition of a not nice to watch - defensive first mid.

This article is saying growth decree is not completely dead yet, Forza Italia (Lotito's Party) is trying to make modifications to resolve the issues with growth decree or change it a bit, but if it comes to fruition we will see the results only in the summer mercato not winter.

Let's goooo Lotitoo you old Dinosaur be useful for once

Why the fuck is he talking about squad matters?

He may be relying thoughts of others, or trying to play down our interest, but his thoughts and wants shouldn't hold much credence.

David isn't a "real forward", we have a tree currently playing the "real forward" role currently... Not knocking him, he's doing a great job, but...

I still think there's something to the David rumours...
