Unless we sell a player first nothing will happen until the end of the mercato.

Forget about 3-4 new players.

Kamara seems like a good signing at that price but I’m pretty happy if we can just get Bakayoko for cheap. He has couple years experience of serie a and did pretty well in a double pivot under gattuso when we played 4-4-2 .

Sad about Hauge leaving - he could really become a top top player . Hope Leao can fix his mindset and realise his potential or it would reaaaaally suck

The more time that passes I think they are waiting to see if Ziyech or Vlasic(or both) become available and I’d bet the backup options are Illicic and James. I think at least one of our top targets will become available under our terms.

But let’s say worst case scenario happens. Pioli can make it work with those guys. James needs to prove he is fit, and if he came we’d have to come up with a way to field him creatively in big matches because he doesn’t run like Hakan. But Krunic will get his minutes, Diaz who people have been down on will get his minutes and should look better(he was very good to close the season, he is learning the team/league), James can offer something different. James scores more than Hakan and he’s probably more useful in those games against small teams that play a low block. After coming in second last season, that issue is only going to get worse and Pioli will have to find a solution. Giroud will help but I think James would too.

Same with illicic. It would be great to find a complete and younger winger but we don’t necessarily need that. We need options. Saele will play and get minutes no matter what. What we need is an option to compliment what he brings, someone who can come off the bench and help in those pesky park the bus teams. That would be immensely valuable, along with him being able to cover multiple attacking positions. Just a little over a year ago he was tearing up the CL knockouts.

to be fair,
Milan did attract top players & talents

But.
Attracting & Acquiring are two different objects

"We even lost some"
Milan indeed LOST one great GK.
But "some" means plural, are you implying that Hakan is a top talent? YOU SIDED WITH VS?

Bro covid has hurt a lot of other teams, we are not the only team broke. Who outside EPL and PSG has done anything? Why is this so hard for everyone to understand?

You think Madrid is happy they sold Varane and lost Ramos and only brought in Alaba? Juve haggling for Locatelli from Sassuolo? Inter won the league and will only be weaker. Barca can?t afford jack shit.

How you guys forget we?re in a global pandemic every day I will not get it

I just meant we lost some players instead of getting new better ones. And wtf do you mean "sided" with VS lmao, I've been defending Hakan for years, cause I liked his playstyle.

We only lost one and btw you are no different than pigeon, trying to insert hakan in every discussion. You need to move on friend, do not be that sour boyfriend.

Hakan is by no mean or shape a top player, only in your mind. Try to be more rational, it?s eating you inside.

Anyway, Maldini clearly said Milan will be able to buy top players after 2-3 years in the CL.

Financialy we lost with $ leaving and Fat pizza pimp beating Maldini but for Kebeb who gives a shit. Sellout orick.

wow, you guys are in a cult :lol: I just replied to the guy that it was not a top / non top discussion, just said we lost 2 players we'd like to keep . It's YOU who is the *sore* boyfriend, I'm not talking about Hakan and you all keep mentioning him in every post. The fact that I KNOW that I did not mean to write that those 2 were top players, and you jumped on it, proves my point. If we lost Dollar and Kjaer or Dollar and Rebic, I'd write the same, but you're all salty so you see what you see. At least I don't pretend that those players werent important for the team. I even get weird everytime I write Diaz is a shitty choice for 10, because butthurt hakan haters might see it as a spiteful post. What next? I'll write someone's ears are ugly and you'll remember hakan? get over him ffs.

Milan need the Super League to get back to the top. :cry:

Totally. Milan 19/20 season registered 190m losses and that is with half a season of convid. I think losses for 20/21 will be around that figure as well.

If Milan goes by the sustainable route we will have to be in the UCL consistently + option to buy for the next 5 years to be anywhere near break even.

If not we can only pray for a oil tycoon to buy Milan anytime soon or for Milan to do a leeds united to expediate our return to UCL dominance.

I doubt he can be gotten for that price though. That?s a no lose proposition

Last year of contract + refused numerous renewals. 15 m is more than fair and OM will accept a figure around it. They just have no choice. He would be a massive transfer for us and will give us tactical flexibility.

Yeah thats true , so far.
But we cant judge that until the mercato is over.
It seems that players wanna join us but we arent ready to pay the price.

Not replacing Hakan will hurt us more than Donna.
I would honestly go on with Tata if it meant an AM will join.

Without an AM we could also play with Ibra or Leao next to OG in a 4-4-2/4-4-1-1. I‘m convinced we‘ll get one but even if not we would have possibilities.

I will remain sane for one more week.

Honeymoon is over and my patience is running out.
