From 1986 to 2012... we've had it so good for that long. I dont know how long we'll have to endure now.

Not sure about the vibe of these clothes.

If Paolo wasn't such a brilliant director I'd hire him to choose clothes for our team. Best dressed man alive.

Yeah when I read "his 2020 is over", I initially thought they meant his 2020-2021 season is over. Looks like he'll be back in Jan or Feb. Not terrible.

AC Milan chief scout Geoffrey Moncada has offered some valuable insight into how the Rossoneri?s data team are beginning to attract envious glances from Europe?s elite

Since taking over, Elliott Management have been big on the use of data and analytics to try and squeeze the most out of every euro that the club spends, and that can be seen in the club?s shrude transfer business which is starting to bear fruit on the pitch.

Moncada has become a big part of that, regarded as one of the best scouts in world football and the man who built the Monaco side which competed on all fronts in 2016-17, winning Ligue 1 and reaching the Champions League semi-finals.

We wrote a feature last month about Milan?s team of data experts that number crunch both the performances of the team and potential signings, and Moncada spoke about the two areas at the club.

?Elliott asked to develop the sports area with scouting: data, statistics. So we decided to create two things: the scouting area and the ?data? area. One works with the other every day. When a scout likes a player, we take a look at the numbers and everything else,? he said (via MilanNews).

?When the ?data? area tells us that we have a strong player with numbers, I ask the scouts to go watch him. I like this mix: work with the help of statistics. For Elliott it is important to have reports with statistics, videos, not just the observations of the scouts.

?Milan didn?t have this reputation for playing with young people, so we worked on this, we talked a lot with families of the players saying that if we take the youngster, it is because we believe in him and not to play him only once in a while.

?Today, there are many clubs, agents, scouts who call me to say ?We want to come to Milan, what you do is very interesting.

?I have friends in the Red Bull group or in Dortmund and other clubs who work a lot on scouting and who tell me ?Bravo, we see the changes at Milan, you work very well?.?

Id take VS's scouting & data over geoffrey's... Campos is the man we want.

French Soccer Faces Financial Crisis After Record TV Deal Collapses

... ? And then the deal simply vanished.

Last week, arbitration talks between the Ligue de Football Professionnel (L.F.P.), the governing body for professional soccer in France, and MediaPro, a Spanish broadcaster now controlled by Chinese interests, ended with the company handing back the four years of rights under its control and less than a third of the more than 300 million euros it owes for games this season.?

Ligue 1 clubs stare into financial abyss after huge TV deal collapses

https://www.theguardian.com/footbal...re-financial-abyss-tv-deal-collapses-mediapro

Their TV deal is vastly inflated by the way. No idea how they expected it to be fine, even without corona. Mediapro were the front runners for the last Serie A deal 2 years ago offering VERY good money, but no financial guarantees which got them kicked out of the race. After that they offered even more money to Baguette league :lol: It was the definition of too good to be true for them. Now, let's buy their players on bargains

P.S. I wasted my time typing this, it is explained in the second article :lol::fp:

We need to jump on that Papu Gomez transfer if its true he wants out of Atlanta. A good experienced

player for depth that can play behind striker or on the wings. Plus he would work really well with our high

Press game.

I want a Netflix/Prime Video series on Milan. Imagine having one from last season and now. It'd be crazy to see inside the club the transformation.


Yeah.. or even this season

I wonder how Cutrone would fare in Bundes? Silva tearing it up, Piatek struggling.
