The Rumour Commode XLVII: Foamseca is out

[Curupira]

Yes - I thought he wouldve read the room and signed an extension at lower wages already.

But you pay Chuku more and he’s even more useless

I stand corrected, racism exist in sport only against black players.
Man oh man, your life is getting better every time you discover a new case of racism &/or when you make one of the oppressor take a knee.
Hip hip ...

Di Marzio:
Okafor left in Leipzig on loan with the right of redemption. Milan now has other charges in attack, and the name we have been talking about for some time is that of Rashford. The boy has given an opening to Milan but has not yet made a final decision, Milan will have to wait at least half a week to understand whether to sink or change the target in attack. Recall that Milan can only take one non-EU player, therefore British.

Rossoneri are also interested in City's Walker, but Rashford and Walker cannot arrive together, the English full back would be an alternative to Rashford "

Imagine if Rashford declines and management is like: "Alrighty then, we're signing Walker instead. Market closed." 5th RB

 

[Myalon]

If they can't get Ricci if he only costs 30 or 40M they lack ambition.

Don't let me out, there's no money, I know the song.

When you don't have money you don't take fodder defenders at 15M at right back and 20M the Chiellini from Wish who has also disappeared. Some have dared to compare this defender to Stam . Our old recruiters deserve slaps from the supporters.

@86_longo: #ACMilan are in contact with #Goglichidze's agent. He could join AC Milan in January and be loaned out to #Empoli until June. Juventus are also interested.

Which generation Pokemon is this?

So we are signing Rashford for RB or Walker for ST .

I guess they mean if Rash failed then we will get Walker & then shop for a ST elsewhere.

Pretty sure they can't get Ricci because Cairo is being a douchebag and refusing all offers until the Summer, when he can initiate a bidding war for him.

He knows that most teams won't have money set aside for the Winter months, and if he keeps him until June, then he can get more money for him.

Who the fuck cares if Milan want him. Ricci is Torino's asset.

Valued at 8m already, CB prospect.

Doesn't seem like the stupidest move ever tbh, unless you're doing that instead of fixing the first team squad this season.

Is Walker at least fast?
What is the point of ALL your full backs being slow AF?
Emerson does those crosses all the time because he's never ahead of his man.
Calabria is probably worse in terms of speed (although I think he's slightly better)
Didn't we get Cafu when he was like 34 but he was still fast. IDK man very underwhelming

Walker now is better deal than Terraciano at last winter merceto. Moncada is doing well.

Walker is lightning fast, easily faster than 95% of seriea players & very physical.
Pep used him to stop conters.
Can easily play RB & RCD & if he is still as good as he was two years ago then for sure highly useful.
But i didnt follow his games this season.

Update : did some google & it stated Walker top speed is 37km/h.
Leao is at 36km/h

 

[CDarius]

You can compare the two players all you want but at the end of the day, there’s a reason why Vini plays for Madrid and Rafa for Milan.

Very true aswell but like i said in my long post about this comparasion im not saying im right and others are wrong (beside that guy who took it personal calling my post “deluded schizophrenia”).

But at the same time i think everyone remembers Vinicius’s first 3 seasons in a stacked Real team..where he was embarassing himself and he was a meme icon with his over the moon finishing and missed dribblings attempts..he even has worst numbers than Leao’s first 2 seasons with us.
But they made a bet, they kept him, gave him confidence and he became the best in the world or one of the best ite (if we consider Fifa player and Ballon d or rankings).

I’m pretty sure Leao could get his numbers in those Madrid teams and the current Madrid team Vini’s playing. Just like him, Leao struggles against low blocks which for me is no shock..considering his best asset is like i said dribbling with the ball using the speed…against low blocks theres tight spaces and you always will get another defender as soon as you dribble the first one..

Leao looked way better everytime we played against teams that actually show up and play (even with Portugal..everytime they play against a team that shows up and are not parking the bus he displays good performances) Bernabeu this season aswell, inter in the Supercup, even Lazio away the few minutes he got ..and the list goes on.

In the end thats just my opinion and i might be wrong but some people here cant see it that Leao’s is our last problem at this time. We have 27271 RB’s (neither of them should wear an ACM shirt), our defence concedes every game, we are missing a DM, a CAM (if we stick with the 4-2-3-1) and a bomber.

That if looms large.

I haven't watched him this season either but even if he is still good, it still seems a very strange deal considering our position, other needs and the path this ownership / management team has been taking.

 

[Berlusconi]

Rashford instead of walker please.

Walker would probably be another bullshit origi/essien/mandzukic type transfer. Just NO

Just a reminder, Emerson Royal is our starting right back

 

[Caladan]

Leao is our starting left winger.

I guess they're taking the "but can he play RB?" joke to the extreme.

Thanks
I meant "STILL Fast"
I know he was definitely very fast.....but at 35....

 

[Gennaro8]

Walker is still very fast, thats not an issue. If he comes he will be easily top 3 RB in Serie A. But Milan needs striker and MF before him

 

[Berlusconi]

You're assuming that Milan, Inter, Juve and Atalanta will make it to the last 8? So Italian's are going to be 50% of the teams remaining? I'll take that bet

Bro, if we have only 2 teams in the QFs it would be a huge success and I cannot remember the last time we had two in the CL QFs.

Ya it’s been like a 100 years since there was 2 Serie A teams or more in the QF in champions league. @pippofan remembers 2023 like it was yesterday

Back in 2022-23 you can only tune in to the champions league on radio. Not even black and white tv’s had the game

 

[Berlusconi]

Leao is our starting left winger.

Yes and we need a back up to let him rest once in a while

 

[Deleted member 35916]

That was in 2022/2023. Two years ago. His legs are since gone.

PSG getting Kvara for 70m. Steal of a transfer.

I don’t think Walker is an alternative to Rashford. It seems much more plausible that Walker, like Rashford, is being shopped around and offered to clubs.

As Franco Ordine said the other day, the winter mercato is all about opportunities. Teams don’t sell their strongest or most important players mid-season. And if they do, it’s only for stupid money – something we’re clearly not willing to spend, not even in the summer.

So here’s how it works: opportunities are presented to us, and we decide which ones to pursue and which to let slip. Rashford and Walker are both such opportunities. The way I see it, we’re prioritizing Rashford because we need an attacker, especially after loaning out Okafor. Honestly, I don’t believe we would’ve let Okafor leave unless we were confident we’d have his replacement lined up soon – whether that’s Rashford or someone else if Rashford declines.

I’ve been upset with this management for a while, but I don’t think their logic is as simplistic as, “If we can’t get Rashford, then Walker is Plan B.” If Rashford falls through, it’ll be someone else – maybe even a Pokémon player. Walker, on the other hand, would be an additional signing, brought in because they see it as another opportunistic move.

 

[Samaldinho]

I thought English players were going to be treated like EU players, which applied when we were getting RLC, did that rule get overturned? Or am I mistaken completely?

i do have selective memory.. i've erased all irrelevant football data that has nothing to do with milan

I remember 2003 we had Juve, Inter & Milan in the semis

In 2007 we eliminated Inter in the QFinals

2022 Inter eliminated us in the semis

There must have been other years where we've had more than 2 Italian QFinalists during the banter era? no?

you are correct but these journalists of today are just crap and need to sell news

 

[Deep Fried Pizza & Chips]

Jimenez and Bartesaghi are the up and coming Calabria. Don't fret.Our Futuro/First Team Bench players are just a year or so away from being useful.

I think that and Davide's salary requests are what is making us give up on him.

We've not seen enough of Bart actually...

Calabria on 2 million is the least of our worries.

He's an easy scapegoat for those if you're painting a certain picture.

Calabria on 2 million, as an experienced Milan boy and handy back up... Is way more acceptable over the likes of RLC, Ben, ChK and Origi for example.

Calabria renewing on a couple of million, sure, move on and start addressing way more pressing issues... Like who starts ahead of him that's a few grades above?

People like to punch down and sideways. Calabria on 2 million isn't an issue if we got a decent starting RB on double that wage with growth decree.

Plus Bart and Jiminez are already helping with the squad... Posing Calabria alongside Pobega and Daniel pretty much helped us into the problem we have with squad registration no?

Losing another club trained player isn't solved with B team players I'm pretty sure?

Calabria gets way to many inches in here lol

Just my thoughts, great post.

Walker is an opportunity, you get still WC player at no transfer fee, and he is not yet declined to the point that he cannot deliver for 2,5 seasons. For these conditions, it's a steal.

Ofc, we need a striker (or attacking player), Rashford is also Moncada-type signing, he is a top potential currently at his lowest point. IF we manage to negotiate a decent buyout option + salary in our range (5-6M with him giving up on the part of his Utd contract and Utd paying him part of what they owe him until 2028), then he's a nice gamble.

If we fail to bring Rashford, then I'm all in for getting Walker on a free (it would fix not only RB, but would provide a lot of help to whoever RCB is) and investing in a goalscoring striker (I think we're good until summer with Fofana, Bennacer, Reijnders, Musah and RLC for two midfield positions).
