Super Berlusconi + Galliani Thread

[Ian]

Heard that we got "money" from Adidas...I hope we are gonna use that money for reinforcement. But, we don't know how we are gonna spend that money. We'll see....

 

[joyrider]

The Rossoneri will be able to welcome supporters to the San Siro for the match with Udinese after the FIGC opted to delay the verdict over the initial sanction

I'm sure Galliani begged for this

Even if there's money our reputation with a lot of players is shit, it seems we can only get those who were in love with older and greater Milan teams or those that have problems with their/other clubs. M'biwa chose Newcastle Utd, Ljajic chose Roma, Dede chose Cruzeiro, Nuri Sahin/Sakho chose Liverpool, Asamoah/Ogbonna/Tevez chose Juve.

Our Managements cheapness compared to other competitive teams is pathetic and damaging. Even if players are only choosing us to springboard to bigger teams such as Barca/Bayern/Real, they see other clubs as better. Even now Honda and this Adil Rami guy are saying they have other options. I remember M'biwa/Dede/Tevez being a sure thing in the media that turned out false. Allegri isn't a stud either but we wouldn't even be dealing with him or would have let him go by now if we weren't so damned cheap.

Obviously

we can barely get any matchday revenue as it is

People dont exactly wanna waste money to see a pile of shit

It's not our reputation, its just there's no money. Players move to where their team is offered more money and where they're offered more money (and that's where you're right in your post), but its not reputation. Bleh, teams with zero reputation like Monaco but with money got Falcao.

career-wise for a player, serie A is not a great move.

Atleast not if your other option is EPL.

depends which position do you play...because if u are a defender or defensive minded player serie a is by far the best school to learn and apply ur skill!now if u are a striker then la liga or some other league with zero defensive skill should be first option
but if u are refering to wages marketing value etc then its another issue

 

[ForzaHardy]

If Gallani is sacked, then Berlusconi will replace him with his other daughter or something. Hopefully Inzaghi comes with his friend Paraciti.

With Inter selling a large stake hopefully Silvio might think about doing the same!

Milan in vendita? Berlusconi cerca soci arabi
Lontano dalla squadra per guai politici e processuali, il Cavaliere pensa a un partner per dare forza al club

MILANO - Missione negli Emirati Arabi. Anche il Milan, dopo i tanti rumors degli ultimi tempi, ha deciso di scendere concretamente in campo per verificare la possibilità di cedere (almeno) una quota della società. E così, dopo aver consegnato, nei mesi scorsi, a una società di revisione, l’incarico di valutare l’asset del club, Silvio Berlusconi , sempre più assente nei confronti della squadra ma sempre attento alle vicende societarie e alle difficoltà economiche, ha mosso un altro passo concreto: mandare uno dei suoi commercialisti ad Abu Dhabi, per cercare di verificare concretamente la possibilità di nuovi soci.

LE STRATEGIE E’ un rapporto sempre molto stretto quello tra il Milan, Berlusconi e gli Emirati. Non solo per la sponsorizzazione più importante, quella Emirates, che garantisce al club rossonero quasi 15 milioni di euro all’anno in cambio del nome sulle maglie. E’ noto come più volte, in passato gli arabi siano stati dati assai vicini all’ingresso in Mediaset e come, altrettante volte, anche per il Milan si sia parlato di possibili interessamenti. Dallo sceicco Al Thani al cugino Al Maktour , voci e smentite si sono susseguite anche in tempi più o meno recenti. E non è detto che pure adesso, di fronte a queste nuove rivelazioni, non arrivi l’ennesimo “non è vero nulla”. Ma stavolta, i passi ci sono stati e appaiono sempre più decisi.

bingo.

short career. Get money.

Dont commit to every player out there, very basic and vanilla principle have only 3 - 4 players to be the core and use youngsters and sell them once its not affordable.
Dont ever commit a big time money into a player who wont get another big contract in his career. Injury prone players should be ready to dumped. Screw it galliani need to hire some Gm from american sports, we are not rich and luxurious like we used, use them young and dump them.

SES for 35 million should have taken that shit same for pato

Bring in good veterans who are professional and productive like MvB , stam, cafu and so on. No kaka, sheva etc etc

of course we should have 20% budget allocated for inter rejects and bobofide bad boys like balo, cassano, ibra and so on

Easier said than done, boom we spend 22 + million on dinho on a down year Kaka in year 1 of development instead of ljajic or honda, I love B7G I have no problem with this, because it is what it is, big picture I will be eternally loyal towards them but if we are going to get a new Director or a partner for galliani, he should be cutthroat

he should be in dubai instead to sell ACM....pfff wrong priorities

 

[Casualista]

Milan being self-sustainable financially has nothing to do with how much Berlu pays his ex-wife.

Bayern is self-sustainable, Arsenal is self-sustainable. No reason why we shouldn't aim for the same. The way we execute it is a different discussion altogether.

Self sustainable clubs dont sell their best players every 3 years.

I think self-sustainability of milan is the wrong question to ask. The better question is is berlusconi and by extension fininvest sustainable or not. Because it has become apparent that milan doesnt work within itself but berlusconi uses it to mitigate his other loses. Case and point would be the failure of hamsik deal due to his tax fraud conviction (according to raiola who was conducting the deal).

Of course he is free to do it like any businessman should.

Anyway, I think it is finally game over for him. About time as well. He deserves to rot in a jail for the rest of his life and milan would do well now to disassociate itself from him, arabs or no arabs.

 

[joyrider]

apparently galliani was getting two belgians yesterday

Jose Riga: a coach (he reached 1/8 finales of EL with Standard)

Michel Bruyninckx: researcher, brain something, youth coordinator


both will work for our youth academy to develop innovative training methods D)

AC Milan News ‏@Milanello

Galliani: "I think that Kakà, Birsa and Silvestre will be ready for the Udinese match. De Sciglio might be back for the Barcelona match."

Galliani: "All the players will spend the night here at Milanello tomorrow. On Friday, it will only be the players selected for Udinese."

Galliani: "We have decided to have this training retreat because we think that it will be useful for all of us. It's not a punishment."

Galliani: "Milanello is a beautiful place, where we can stay together, concentrate and prepare to climb up the Serie A table."

AC Milan president Silvio Berlusconi is launching plans to find new investment for the club.

Il Giorno says an accountant for Berlusconi has been in the Middle East sounding out potential investors about taking a minority stake in the club.

Those close to Berlusconi have also employed a bank to make an assessment of the value of the club, which according to Forbes, is the sixth richest in the game.

totally agree in sell part or totally the club.. but only to a serious group.. sell to anybody could be kinda risk.

is the future.. cant avoid this.. we better get used to this idea.

 

[joyrider]

idd, a lot of people are shouting that berlu is a shit and he should sell the club.......but how can we be sure that the next president will invest more money and fanatism into this club


berlu family has been supporting us for more than 50yrs

I guess there is only one way to find out no?

Reminds me of Stephen Elop's burning platform analogy :

[joyrider]

true

if he's prepared for a cash injection and pulls the strings again, like in the 80's & 90's before he became PM

then he should definetly stay

 

[Casualista]

I think we (as well as Serie A) are in and around the inflection point. Something has to and will give sooner rather than later. Roma and Inter have taken the dive from the "burning platform" in the form of presidency change. Fiorentina and Napoli have taken a dive from the platform through investments. We have to choose one or the other right now.

I am pro-presidency change. I don't think Milan is a berlusconi priority. Hasn't been for a long time and neither do I see his children competent enough.

It is best we try another owner.

great example this with the platform.but we must decide which one is the problem?president or CEO?or both?so would u prefer a new owner with G in charge?or berlu staying with a new more competitive CEO?or a totaly new investor/owner and a new management team?

All the while being a juve agent in disguise

But he speaks sense there.

Totally new management. From berlusconi to the coach. I dont see any reason for g to stay if b is going. What we really need is a cryuff like figure as a sporting and youth director tbh. He can be a douche but he knows how to build a club ground up.
