consider the following:

1. Pingu returns.
2. Posting volume explodes.
3. Milan beats Manchester United 4-2.
3.Chukwueze temporarily becomes Lamine Yamal.
4.The mercato suddenly begins to move.
5.Gerry starts talking about commitment to the project.
6. Players nobody had heard of 45 minutes ago are being described as the Belgian Marcelo.


These are not predictions anymore.


These are the signs.


The prophecy is not being fulfilled. Not yet.


The prophecy has entered the fucking group stage


View attachment 63662

but this still depends on our shared commitment to posting volume and quality.

the future hangs in the balance.

on one side there is the RnB posting velocity and tension with high quality debate and gif reactions


on the other side, dare I say it… is the dark force that knowingly or unknowingly work to thwart the prophecy’s fulfillment.

1. slurs against Milan
2. Taylor swift gifs
3. open posts about depression or being a ‘realist‘

fight the urges to fall back into the darkness

only then will we see glory in Milan and the return of patosheva and MR who will be the heralds of a new era

Lol as if we can afford like 18m euros a year. And why would he wanna play in EL instead of cl ?
He is on 10 m EUR net according to capology who are generally a trustworthy source.
Leao can basically cover most of the fee and most of the wages, so we can actually afford Bruno. The question is whether he is the right profile as he will soon have zero resale value which is not exactly what RedBird are looking for.

Also if he wants to come here a pay cut wouldn't be shocking for a player of his age.

Modric came here with a pay cut.

As far as I know we've been offered him.

I'm not sure, it feels like we're hunting the players we want, not dictated by other clubs' offering.

But we'll see I guess. I expect the next signing to land later this week, possibly thursday.
But this is a different argument.
Bruno is easily top 5 AM in the world.
I get saying we shouldnt pay +50mil for a 31 years player.
But its ridiculous to think he is technically beneath us.
As i mentioned before, R&B once refused BenZ because we thought we can do better.

I bet the club wont be spending so much wage on him. We never did.
Also better not to, bcs it can create unnecessary tension between players, bcs he would be on such a high wage and the others not

But he would be great ofcourse, also for the set pieces and penalties

Yeah Modric was 40. And he knew he wouldnt be a starter anymore in Madrid. Bruno is 31-32, he can still sign for a top team if he want

We need a CB that can pass out of the middle. Maybe that will be the big signing?

Pulisic, Leão.
Anything to do with United will garner views and make headlines.

The recent friendly was a great example of that. Sure, Amorim being our coach helped but so many articles, content creators and people talking about Milan, just because we defeated them handsomely.

Taking Bruno from them is bound to cause shock waves and make Milan the talking point of the footballing world.

I don't like Bruno though.

Maybe the next signings will come out of nowhere as well.

Not sexy, but I would be interested in bringing in Luka Sucic for AM.
A player who has some physicality, pressing, and creativity, while also still having potential to grow.

Bruno was never injured in his career. He is 31 years old, and already played 50k minutes in his career. I can get why this would be compared to Napoli getting KDB, who turned out to be super washed, and a major flop for them. However KDB was injured a lot, and his last couple of seasons in City was already on a downhill pattern.

In the meantime, Bruno just won the EPL player of the season, with a record setting 21 assists.

My concern would be that Amorim used Bruno actually in the double pivot, next to Casemiro. A Bruno-Rabiot/Jashari/Modric midfield would be too imbalanced, we would be completely overrun.

As a LAM, he would be the perfect player, cost and age aside. Lets not kid ourselves, Bruno Fernandes is still world class. I could not name 5 better players for that LAM position.

But I think this will not be happening. 57 mil pound is 66 mil euro. 10 mil net salary would be 18 mil gross. On a 4 year contract, that is 16,5 mil depreciation+18 mil gross wage = 34,5 mil euro annual cost. This is around 8% of our annual revenue, allocated to a single player. It is not happening.

Won’t Saele be the starting LWB?

We can do something very aesthetically pleasing and just play Morreira o the left, Sale on the right
It’s going to be funny when they play LWB and RWB for us and then swap sides for Belgium.

I fancy the new CB signing to be Tiago Gabriel. It'd be nice to sign someone who can actually increase in value too.

Tall, good on the ball, expiring contract too I believe.

Seems like a no brainer. Not sure we need to spend 40+ on inacio when we should get Solet or Tiago Gabriel for almost half.

Man utd fans put Bruno in their top 10 players ever btw.
And he won EPL player of the season. Probably a top 5 player in the world last season then.

Can't imagine we can afford that salary or the fee. Unless we think he's going to maintain this level for a long time or do we cross our fingers that we sell on for a large fee even in 2/3 years.

Modric took a pay cut for the love of the Club and the game.

Don't see Bruno doing the same, he ain't even a Milan fan.

He plays both flanks.
He's more Zambrotta than Theo.
He's definitely not Zambrotta.
Watch him. He isn't coming for his defensive contributions. He probably never played so defensive in his life, until he moved to France. He humbled himself in need of game time.

We need mids like Bruno honestly (ala Zielinski, Kebab). Technical, great passer, can cut low blocks...maybe for lam. But not for 60M and 10M net.

But whatever. Bring additional cb (i dont want to watch tomori, gabia ever again). Im on the moon already Bartesaghi wont be starter again.

Bruno with the same performance at Milan that he has had at United wouldn’t scratch the top 100 @ our club

Ok if he replaces Chuku it's an upgrade compared to the Nigerian, though 50 millions is so excessive, is it possible to make other deals without those made alongside Mendes ? I mean we are obliged to do every deal with him ?
