I'm very comfortable in saying most of this mental growth is down to Zlatan.

It's a business, players don't get attached to a coach. Same thing that happens when a player wants to leave or the club decides to sell them. Emotions get put aside.

Honestly, if we can offload Laxalt for 7Me, RR for 3Me, Calabria for 10/12Me and Conti for more or less the same amount, we could have 30/35Me in transfer fees and save 16.6Me in gross wages. More than enough to have one very good right back, one decent replacement left back, and still have some extra spare change.

With Kalulu and Saele, we would just need one decent RB and one good prospect LB for Theo.

The recurrent rumours mention Dumfries and Emerson but to be honest I can't haven't seen them play to offer a preference. Dumfries does seem more versatile and can also play center back.

What player would be more judicious in this Milan team? Any other RB you would prefer with a price tag under 25Me?

Calabria will never be worth 12M. Saele will never become RB, unless you want to see many defensive errors and red cards.

I disagree. I believe that Calabria could be sold for 12Me with bonuses included.
Borini was not a RB but he was useful as a stop gap.
Saele could do the same. Don't forget we are talking about him as a 3rd position RB after a new RB and Kalulu.
I also believe that Pioli has already positioned him once as a substitute RB during his first game against Hellas Verona

An upgrade to the right side is needed. just the rb position cost us so many points this season. I remember a run of games where either Calabria or Conti caused a penalty or got red carded. the Calabria ?handball? also cost us the cup.
Right side is also our least productive side, iirc only 2 goals came from the right side this whole season. One from Suso and the other from Casti.
I want to see who ragnick brings in bc the right side has been neglected though different management eras.

Saele never played as RB in his former clubs. Even if he plays, it's stupid.

Le10Sport is a terrible source. I wouldn't put a lot of hope on their reports regarding Fofana. The figures are too good to be true

I guess you are missing my point of him being a 3rd RB. Not a starter, not a replacement, but a 3rd RB.

In regards to his professional career, he has played 29 games including 10 games for Milan. Out of those ten, he has come on as RB (against Hellas and Juventus) for short amount of time.

Pioli has chosen him twice to fill that position so I guess I will follow his opinion.

Except he kinda did? His main position was always RM/RW for sure, but he has played RB before. Not that I mean to say he's particularly good at it or that we should consider him for that position, but factually you cannot deny he has played there.

I've never gotten this type of thinking... tons of coaches step up at different points of their career.

It's not like because your situation at one club or even a couple clubs ended a certain way means that they all will.

Look at Gasperini- he has had a totally different level of success at Atalanta than he had in previous stops.

Precisely, Allegri and Sarri also didn't achieve much with small clubs before Milan and Napoli.

But I think the decision is already made and with due respect Milan management will announce the new manager only after the season ended.

Has anyone been following how Alessandro Plizzari has been doing at Livorno?
Is it worth it to bring him back at Milan and have the two Donna's and him as our 3 GK's thus enabling him to learn from Donna as well as get rid of Reina's 3Me net contract?

Won't be surprised if Milan & Reina terminate contract, but not sure if Plizzari will want to stay.
