I hope the club releases a limited edition #6 jersey from one of the vintage 80s designs to honor Franco. That would be pretty amazing to carry on his legacy worldwide

To me this sounds more like exploiting his death to boost sales. I wouldn't want that. Or if it happens anyway, at least give 100% of the profits to a football school or something that actually honors his legacy and builds toward the future. Something Baresi himself would have liked.

Growing up I never paid attention to defenders but for some reason Billy was my favourite at the back.
To think we had Maldini, Baresi, Costacurta and Tassoti... Then Maldini, Nesta, Stam and Cafu...

Some of us were spoiled rotten!!!

And some of the midfields and front lines, fucking hell, how far we've fallen...

Great memories though ❤️🖤❤️🖤

2 games that stand out for me was the Barca final in 94, away to Foggia in 92, coming back from 2-1 down at half time, to win 2-8... These were so pivotal to my falling in love with this club and the players. Such heart and soul. I think that's why I've pretty much hated the Americanisation of Milan, and all dat ruthlessness and those fucking 7 strips per season.

I'm maybe old, but I hark for an older version of the game... So many classic games, battles, varied results but always a sense of pride, love and fun from this club.

This soulless iteration of Milan isn't Milan, and it hurts as well as sucks.

So I'll remember the good times for as long as I can, and hope to see a nice collar and second star on a jersey soon!!!???

Forza Milan ❤️🖤❤️🖤

Classy men like Berlusconi, Baresi and Maldini are the reason why ppl respect and love this club. Noble ppl, European football aristocrats really… no club does it like Milan… i hope milan goes back to those times

I bet you're still HOT 😍😍😍
Sorry, I'm gonna need Dida to translate that for me. :D

50 will be old AF to me. I'm planning my euthanasia strategy and I'm not even
45. Dead serious. Nothing is going to be working by the time I hit 60 😅

Also

Sorry about your loss of your dad. If you still read the Bible there's Acts 24:15 hope you will see him again one day :heart:
And...in case I haven't told you 500 times before....so glad to have an old friend back
Aw, thanks. 💕 Plus I can't believe it's already been well over a year since my big comeback. Another perk of getting old: time just flying like nobody's business.

What if Milan went back to Kappa, as per a post on Sempre Milan's socials...

Fuck yes!!!, apart from the white lines down the sides of the stripes, solid red and black stripes people, always solid stripes; but the collar and those sleeves???!!! TAKE MY MONEY!!!

PPL tend to forget but besides Baresi&Maldini Billy Costacurta was also elite/world class in 90s, easly would be star in modern Milan/best italian defender nowdays (competition is so weak tbh). And then we got Nesta in the 2000s. Maldini-Nesta-Stam-Cafu is in my opinion the strongest 4-back in club football history. We had so much talent in evry position under Ancelotti that it is almost unbeliveble. When u look at modern squad...we fell so low...
Winning a single CL title and a single Scudetto with this squad is criminal! Punishable by banishment to Siberia.

Watching some comps of Baresi. I was just shaking my head in awe! How could you watch this elegance, ruggedness, intelligence, calmness and leadership, then say Maldini is the best Milan defender?

No way. Nooo f*king way!!!
Dude, respectfully, let's not go there just now... Fucking hell!

Baresi was a legend, in the running for best defender EVER!!!

Let's remember without reason or need to drive any sort of narrative or agenda.

Leave all that shit, for now at least ❤️🖤❤️🖤

Let’s just say both were the greatest and best ever?
And leave it at that.

Let’s also not forget costacurta and nesta

Telling you we need to sort our backline first

Get one more cb and a quality rwb/lwb

Then worry about midfield

We need to go back to our roots.

Yea usually I wouldn’t give a fuck. But baresi passing away has mellowed me.

All our greats make us emotional.

August 1st and I have the feeling we are gonna half ass the mercato yet again. After a good start with Ramos and Gila, we have become non existent for a month, worse, we are going from promising youngsters like Karetsas or Alajbegovic where if they pan out we benefit massively to our foolish strategy of loan to develop for others targeting Mastantuono (who is a fucking toxic personality within the team btw) and Nwaneri...

And don't get me started on whose turn it is to get the trash out (Musah, Chuck, Fofana, Leao, Odogu, Terraciano, Bondo, Stupid, RLC, Gimenez...)

No one at the helm yet again.

Yeah don't forget Fluvio Colovati who was the starter of Italy in 1982 WC, in addition to Costacurta and Francesco Coco who was a great talent but his life style prevent him from leaving his mark in the history book, @pippofan do you remind him ? He became the LB starter forcing Maldini to stay as a CB.
Wasn't Coco sent to Inter in exchange for Seedorf? Collovati also moved to Inter and now is some kind of analyst on TV. Costacurta was much better than him and at some point we had Filippo Galli as a reserve that was better than most starters of other teams. I'm reminded of him because he writes editorials on MilanNews at times.

Currently our strongest team on paper.

Remove Modric and replace him with ? He’ll go comotto.

Go back to our roots. Get one more great cb

Like Gila. We need one more.

Strong defense and midfield wins titles even if strikers are shitty.
I want a solid Italian CB.

Our most prolific Italiaan CB after Baresi/Maldini/Nesta is Romagnoli and the fraud Bonucci.

Sad.

They should shorten the mercato by a month, only july. Everyone is waiting till the last week/days of the Mercato to get deals done.
That would also mean everyone starts the season with a ‘complete squad’, no more transfers when the season has already started.

They should open the window once a week.

I cant resist.
The idea of Milan hunting an AM is very intriguing. And i dont mind taking him back.

His best postion would be left AM, like Pulisic, Nkunku and Cisse. Somehow I see Gerry going for it, in his mind would totally make sense...
