The Rumour Commode L - Take the L

[milanator]

So we removed the rotten apples like Fofana , Tomori and Leao and we started playing well , maybe a coincidence or maybe not ?

Also, sell Mike the rapper too

Locker room considerations aside Tomori to Terracciano was a negative swap.

Terracciano was a gas stop. Gila replaced Tomori.

Now that we are an elite, top team, who do we even sign?

Wise thinking! Look at me now shouting to my friends "give Amorim 3 good starters and we are winning the league"!!

Ahh! I pity myself

We were "3 good starters from winning the league" for the last 2 seasons.

Nicola Zalewski or Dorgu for the LWB position would be dope.

Yesterday we played our best game in preseason. While results don't matter in friendlies, but that Chelsea game was really ugly, and what was more concerning that in our first 3 friendlies, we didn't manage to have the lead even for 1 minute.

When United created that chance early on, and than scored from the corner, I was disappointed. But credit goes to our team, because they get their shit together, and we played well. We dominated United, we held posession, we created multiple chances. And that second half performance was great.

Torriani: I like him, he is a great shot stopper. The question is, can he be more? The issue with Torriani is that he is a traditional line keeper, while in the modern game, you kind of need a sweeper keeper. And those instincst are something that is not there with Torriani
.
Terra : Worst player on the pitch. He struggled, made many costly mistakes. The penalty was his fault, the second United goal was his fault. He struggled with retaining posession. He is definitely a Lecce, Cagliari level player, who will have a market from these relegation fighting teams.

KDW: He was pretty bad as well. KDW is not a great player, but not a total fodder. He is an average CB. Someone who can be a reliable 5th choice CB, but that is it. Last year, it seemed to me that he is better on the ball, I thought Amorim's football would suit him better. But in the preseason, he didn't really convince me. He had many lost balls, misplaced passes, he panicked when pressed. He is not better on the ball than Gabbia, and Gabbia has higher IQ on the pitch.

Pavlovic: He also struggles a lot in this system. He didn't have a good preseason, I would say. The first United goal was his and Musah's fault. Pav lost the ball on several occasion, which didn't prove costly, as he corrected his mistakes, and fought for every ball. His ball-carrying skills are valuable, and a great fighter on the pitch. But passing and ball controll are part of his weaknesses. He is not the best fit for Amorim's football, I have to say, but he puts his heart out every day, and we need players like that.

Chuk: Easy MOTM for me. 1 goal, 2 assists, what more can you ask? For now, Chuk proved enough in preseason to be a valuable player in our squad, he earned his stay.

Musah: Bad mistake in United's goal, but I have to say that I simply don't understand how Maguire, an ariel threat was marked by Musah on a corner. Musah provides high energy, and dynamism on the pitch.

Jashari: He was great. He was all-over the pitch, pressed well, which resulted in our first goal. He retained the ball well, and switched the sides fast multiple time with accurate long-balls. Jashari is showing promise.

Estupinan: If this match was not a friendly, Estupinan would have been red-carded. He committed many stupid faults. We need to get rid of him.

RLC: Great game by him. I can't remember the last time he played great games 2 out of 3 matches. He was for once showing aggression, pressed well, retained the ball in difficult situations, and scored a beautiful goal.

Ramos: No coach would turn down having a player like him in the team. He is our best striker in years. He is a grinta player, high workrate, great stamina. He can set up chances, like with the assist on Chuk's goal, or with the quick 1-2 with RLC. He also scored a beautiful header.

Cisse: He was more on the average side yesterday. He retained the ball well, but most of the times, he wasn't that much involved in our attacks. In the first half, he Leao'd a shot after a quick 1-2 with Ramos. In the second half, he had a nice play with Chuk, which resulted in his goal.

Gila: Day and night with him and without him on the pitch. He is a leader, a great defender, who shows aggression. He is a reference point in the buildup, that we desperately missed in the last 2 friendlies. He is the CB most suited to Amorim's football.

Modric: Class, as usual. Jashari had a great game, but we didn't even feel his sub, due to an amazing performance by Modric.

Bart: he is not a flashy player, but he is miles better than Estupinan. I hope we manage to get a better LWB, and Bart can be his backup.

Ricci: High workrate, good stamina. That is about it. He was subbed in to the double pivot with Modric, and after Comotto came in, Ricci was playing the RAM position. I don't like Ricci, I don't rate him.

Camarda, Comotto, Diawara, Vladimirov: I didn't see enough.

Now onto the real test - away against Torino to start the season.

Will be very interesting to see how we end this market.

Seems like a lot of questions about the existing squad have been answered. Chukwueze undoubtedly passed the test and is locking up the RWB position. We still need a more defensive option as a backup, especially after we loaned out Athekame.

Gila looks to be adapting very quickly and is so much better than every other defender we have. Would be great to upgrade the CB or LCB positions also in this window. That seems like a weak point that needs to be addressed soon. I'm not sure if Sankhoun can step up this season, but who knows.

LWB is our biggest problem right now. Major upgrade needed here. I don't know how balanced it would be with Saelemaekers on the left and Chukwueze on the right.

I think we're mostly fine in midfield, whoever we sell we get someone else to replace them, but overall Rabiot-Modric-Jashari are good enough for the midfield duo. Hojberg seems like an ideal candidate to replace Fofana and Ricci, especially if Rabiot is mostly going to be used in the AM position. Comotto and Musah should flesh out that department, I don't think we're at the stage now to afford to loan Comotto. Maybe loan in January if things settle down a bit and he's not getting minutes.

Same with Alpha Cisse on the left. Sell Leao, the team looks completely different with him and without him. The press just doesn't work when he's strolling around. Nkunku and Leao out would allow us to upgrade the squad in a big way, hopefully investing in the backline. Pulisic, Saelemaekers and Cisse are enough for that left sided AM position.

On the other side i'm actually hopeful that Rabiot will make that position his own, and we just need to find a young player with potential to rotate with him and RLC.

Up front we can't rely on Camarda as the only backup. He also needs regular minutes in a possession dominant team, so maybe a loan to Serie B is best for him. We need a good cheap backup to Ramos. Weird that we're loaning out Santi, honestly. I feel like letting him stay without pressure as the bench option might be best for everyone at this stage.

I'm slowly regaining some optimism for the season, but it depends a lot on what we do in the next two weeks or so. The squad need a LOT of work to make it one that Amorim can depend on. Way too many players right now need to be shipped out. Two weeks to find a home for Tomori, Nkunku, Leao, Estupinian, Terracciano, Fofana, Odogu and Gimenez. Then replace them with a CB, LWB, backup RWB, backup CM, backup AM and a backup CF. Huge amount of work to be done with very little time. I hope they know what they're doing.

 

[punisher]

No, he is the perfect Nkunku replacement.

Now let's see what happens with Leao.

 

[Wild]

If this is a real quote, then that's Mourinho level of motivation.

He did say it
"I don't know, but Leao is one of our players. I've already said we're happy to have him; he's a truly valuable player. So we'll see, but he'll have to fight. I think Cisse, with the way he's played, will make things difficult. Saelemaekers has changed positions; it'll be tough. We also have Pulisic, who's coming back. So we have a lot of players who will be fighting for a spot."

[Soldier_of_god]

I know. 5 is ideal. LCB LWB MID AM STRIKER

Let's hope for the best. I think we will purchase 3 and loan 2 more.

Hojbjerg is a cheap and very decent option for the midfield.

Regarding the other positions, I don't have a fucking idea.
Any good stiker we can loan?
Any top AM to replace Leao and Nkunku? If not, I would rather keep Leao.
Any good LWB to replace Estupinan and bench Bartesaghi?
Any good LCB to replace the tree Pavlovic?

Osario
Nwaneri
LWB Tavares they are saying for now
Rwb not sure? No one I have seen linked
One more CB

Backup striker hasn’t been mentioned

I find it rather disrspectful for posters on a Milan fansite to refer to the team I love as Beelan (or any variant). It is what I expect to hear from Inter fans and the like. Some of you may think it is funny, but I believe it is disgraceful. I have no problem with anyone insulting Gerry, our management, our coach, and even the players (well, most of them), but please refrain from insulting my team.

For sake of argument, imagine this was a juve fansite and I repeatedly posted referring to the team as Ladri. How quickly do you believe I would be banned (and for good reasons)? I find it extremely wierd that I appear to be the only one who has a serious problem with this.

 

[ForzaMilan2]

I think Jashari is more of Rabiot's back-up. He's better on the left and probably a bit too one-footed to play RCM effectively.

For me, the starting duo has to be either Jashari-Modric or Rabiot-Modric. Or, if Amorim actually moves Rabiot to RAM – a position he played very well at Marseille – then Jashari becomes the undisputed starter at LCM. But in that case, we'll definitely need a proper back-up for him.

Modric cannot play every single game. We need a viable alternative.

Bruv, you will see more respect for Maldini on an inter forum than here.

One dude literally posted a selfie he took with Maldini in Milano and said "sorry if this is inappropriate here".

And people replied - "nothing to apologize for, Maldini is a legend of Italian football and a legendary rival".

Quiet a contrast to what you see here.

[Alo88]

Modric cannot play every single game. We need a viable alternative.

As Amorim said, create space for young players. He seems to trust Musah a lot – I don't, but what the fuck do I know. And then there's Comotto, who looks like he could become a great player too, but only if you actually leave enough space in that midfield for him to get significant minutes, make mistakes, learn and grow.

People here, pundits, experts and keyboard warriors on Twitter – everyone hammered Milan for the way we fumbled Liberali and eventually lost him to Como. "How could we lose such a bright talent?" "How is it possible that 20 years ago every talented Italian kid would have dreamed of playing for Milan, while now they run off to Como or Dortmund?" I've heard and read it all. But the moment it actually requires taking that leap of faith, deliberately leaving space in the squad and resisting the urge to mercato your way out of every fucking problem, suddenly everyone gets nervous. Because they want Scudetti, they want them now and they don't want to risk relying on a young talent who might actually fail to meet expectations. Well, so fucking what? That's the risk you have to take if you genuinely want to develop young players instead of just talking about it.

Sorry, I disagree. I do not like the personal attacks, but as long as they are not directed at me I will let that pass (that is where admins should step in a bit more frequently, IMHO). I truly respect the opinion of others even when I disagree with it, and I actually agree with many of his posts. I may smile when anyone claims to be infallible, but this is a fansite so it all should be taken in good spirit.

Where I draw the line is a direct insult to the team we are fans of. That, to me, is unacceptable on a Milan fansite.
