Can't wait to see how Tare will handle the market.

I have a feeling some returnees will feature next season, and that some household names will leave. Tomori, maybe also Theo.

For my part I hope we retain all of Mike, Theo, Reijnders, Pulisic and Leao. Hopefully they all want to join what Allegri has in mind.
Build, not rebuild after rebuild... Keep your beat players and add to them!!!

The defensive tactic will probably help Leao as that gives him space and counters. Imo worst for Leao is a approach like Fonseca's. Allegri teams regularly have under 50% possession

Pioli having any beef with Leao is speculation, I think it is much more likely that he meant Bennacer or Theo. Overall they profited greatly from each other.
I remember some of our best performances under Pioli were the smash and grab, more counter attacking turn outs.

Pragmatic and exploitative... I'm down for quick counter attacks with Theo and Leao playing like they used to.

All I hope is we get 90% of the main squad locked in before pre season starts .. the most important thing is a good pre season with all your players ..

We were really hindered by that last year with new coach new ideas and most starters not at pre season..

The returning guys it feels just couldn’t adapt all year especially with 2 matches a week and not much time to fit into a proper plan

Time will not be an issue this time around. So if they fail to implement a working functioning system with the players. There really are no excuses, heads must roll.

Hopefully they just doing this to drive price up..

It would be really stupid to not accept big offers..

His “potential “ is huge but it’s quite obvious now that there’s a very very tiny percentage chance of “getting there”

We really can’t waste more seasons to be his learning school while sacrificing results..

Funny thing is if we hit that 2% chance of him becoming a monster - he will snap want to go to a better placed team like barca or epl teams

@86_longo: Regardless of what happens, Tijjani Reijnders has built a strong bond with the Milan world over the past two years. The Dutch international has warmly said goodbye to everyone teammates, medical staff, Milanello personnel, and his local friends in Milan.

This farewell is a sign not to be underestimated: the former AZ Alkmaar midfielder has given his OK to the transfer to Pep Guardiola’s team. Now, it’s up to Manchester City to move from informal talks to formal action, with an official offer to be presented to Milan.

The English giants' plan remains to try to finalize the deal before June 10, the start date of the FIFA Club World Cup.

I don't really remember but.... Why did we get rid of him again?
Was it just thst his contract ran out and Berlusconi didn't want to renew?
Our three seasons with him were 1st, 2nd and then 3rd place finishes.
In terms of tenure during Berlusconi, those results weren't bad at all.
Barbara Berlusconi fired him live on the air mid interview.

So Allegri it is .....okay,i just want my team to get back to winning ways. Who cares about semi-flashy tactics that are unproductive. 3 points is all that matters.Also,if igli can replicate what he did with Lazio then we will be good. Its also a plus that he's a milanista(though they all are after joining the team one way or the other) and hoping this clueless management won't check him by letting him do his job to the fullest.Forza Milan!!!.

@Ashish ....its been awhile Sir
Corto muso.

What were the Allegri fans called back in the day?

Was it just Coalition force largely covered a lot of people or were there specific names?

If Max could have Robinho performing Lm3@0 will be a piece of cake
Also, there are loads of players who do the exact same thing again and again to differing levels of success.

Surely, the end of the logic above is that the player has to win the title every year unless he is unadaptable.

This idiotic situation, somehow cost us Thuram for example.

Idk, I have the feeling that Ibrahimovic's personality got in the way of some of our recent business. I don't like to have Ibrahimovic into our management.

Agree. I always imagine Zlatan being a dick during negotiations.

"Hello Mbappe, what is your favourite animal?"

"I like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle, so I guess I like turtle."

"Wrong, the correct answer is lion. Lions don't compare to turtles. Goodbye!"
