Thank god he is white & people hold him responsible for his own actions rather than blaming oh racistimology.
You would note that there aren't a ton of complaints about whatever the fuck he gets up to when he's not on the field :o

So Conte wants Darwin and Musah... Two players Milanisti don't want anywhere near this club.

Yet they yearn for Conte to be our coach...

Explain
Conte is a top coach who knows what he is doing and you can trust his choices completely

#Milan on #Ricci has been working for months, now it has to choose whether to sink or not and the internal evaluations are continuing, evaluations that involve everyone, from #Tare to #Allegri . Ricci remains one of the names that is being debated internally

Xhaka is short term. Ricci is for the long term. I wouldn't mind Ricci if we also still sign guerra/jashari

If conte came here and demanded those I would turn on him too. Even though I rate him highly

But he knows how to win the league and bomb out of ucl early. So I will give him that much.
Only problem with conte is his mercato picks… he demands bums and they look great with him no regrets but wtf happens when he inevitably leaves? They are back to mediocrity and the club gets stuck with them for 2-3 more years

Well it took him to have a horrific season like this to finally get held accountable though.

Last season he was also flopping for his standards but nobody bat an eye because his level was still ok

Out for a walk.
There's no way we're bringing in Xhaka, Modric, Guerra, and Ricci all in one window. We still have Fofana, and we'd need to sell literally everyone else (which would be fine). I think Fofana can be great, so I don't want us to plan around him being pushed out when it feels like we'll finally set up a midfield that suits him. I think Allegri would appreciate him a lot. More than Ricci.

Journalist Luca Bianchin believes that Ruben Loftus-Cheek could return to having a crucial role at AC Milan under Massimiliano Allegri.

Coaches want players they can use

Conte wanted Lukaku, he delivers with Lukaku.
Conte wanted McTominay, he made him the greatest.

I don't understand how it takes so long to evaluate a player, if we've been watching him for months, either sink the blow or move on. And if it involves everyone, (I assume including Furlani and Moncada), why was Tare hired? Isn't he the ultimate decider?

I'm not as high on Ricci as I was before, has regressed a little imo, but for around 25 million would strongly consider him. Doesn't have to be a starter, can back-up at DM/regista, good physicality, tall, still young, not a high salary and good for the lists. Needs to be a little more aggressive and move forward more often, can learn a lot from Modric.

The other Italian rumored is Chiesa that can back-up both on the right and left wing, wouldn't mind him on a loan deal. We would have a foursome of Pulisic, Leao, Chiesa, and Salad, much better than Chuck and Okafor that at Napoli played 37 minutes.

Add Leoni and we would have 3 decent Italian players, two young ones and one with more experience, a good mix that wouldn't cost a lot, except for Chiesa's salary that would have to be negotiated with Liverpool. A midfield of Fofana, Modric, Xhaka, Ricci, RCL, and Guerra be pretty good.

Maybe things are changing.

Anyway, rumors are saying we want him because of Allegri. Tare is going to try, with a lower wage probably. If we can get him to agree is a different thing.
I don't buy the Italian jornou narrative of management giving the coach what he asks for unless the same thing he asks sits well with the algorithm.

The only player a coach received here only due to his request is Felix, and that as well is since it was a dry short term loan.

Allegri, with all due respect, is not a pep/Klopp/Enrique/Conte level coach, and Conte only since he'll yell at management if not receive his requests (not necessarily due to respect unlike the others)

Carlo won ONE single scudetto as a Serie A manager, in 10+ seasons. That includes coaching teams like Milan (90%) Juventus and Napoli
Conte has FIVE scudetti.
Max has.... SIX.

We're not in Europe, so no point in discussing it... But it's honestly hilarious to watch the way people talk about our coach like we hired some hack. :lol:
Talking bout "league guarantees" but dismiss clear facts.....

A crucial role? He's going to be making the tea?
Maybe gets a promotion to BBQ guy when Adli gets more actual game time?

I truly hope it's just silly papertalk and we're not trying to make something out of RLC.

If we stand by RLC, fucking hell... ChuK to be pivotal to Max's plans next?

Conte's stock is at an all-time high, thanks to Simone accepting the move to Al-Hilal, and fumbling an easy scudetto. Lowest point scudetto in 15 years, while only playing in 1 competition, because of the August elimination from Coppa. And this is not a fodder Napoli, they just won a scudetto with Spalletti 2 years ago, with mostly the same squad.

- Same GK
- Boungiorno instead of Kim
- Mctominay instead of Zielinski
- Lukaku instead of Osimhen, and having Kvara only for the first part of the season

This is the top italian coach btw:

I would take 100/100 times Allegri ahead of Conte. Not even close. I will be curious what is stock will be this time next year once he underperforms in UCL as he always does.

I don't even care if you prefer Conte to Allegri. I will absolutely HEAR the argument, and agree to some, but not all of it.

But acting as though he's a superior coach in every facet, based on what exactly!? His teams play unattractive football (as do max's mostly). They both grind out ugly wins. And they both have shown they can win (basically even footing)

One of them has shown he can perform in Europe and one hasn't.... Advantage Max again.

Conte is a great coach. Zero doubts. But the man we hired is every bit as capable.

I absolutely REFUSE to believe that after Moncada landed Theo, Kerkez and Jiminez, that Royal was anything other than a Zlatan signing.

There is NO chance Moncada wanted Royal. None. Impossible. Does not at all fit his MO.

The 25-year-old is a precise choice of Geoffrey Moncada who has been following him for years and considers him the ideal reinforcement for Fonseca and the right flank. After Alvaro Morata and Strahinja Pavlovic, Emerson could be the thid signing.

:lol:

Bro had to single out royal specifically when a Google would provide 'alternative facts'
