Galliani: "Berlusconi wasn't at San Siro last night, but he was supposed to have been there."

Galliani: "Muntari is a good player, and he has always been that."
Galliani: "I always used to say to a friend: 'Your rejects will become my queens...' But obviously I wasn't referring to football players."
Galliani: "We're no. 1 in Italy when it comes to marketing. We have a commercial revenue that is comparable with the big European clubs."
Galliani: "We're doing wellin Italy. We've sold out all the current sponsor positions and increased the commercial revenue by €15 million."
Galliani: "Milan is a great advantage for our sponsors, who have been very loyal to us."
Galliani: "What Milan is a missing is a stadium that they own completely."
Galliani: "We will try to give hospitality to all the sponsors that are with us. We have innovative ideas with regard to next year."
Galliani: "If we add all the points from last season and this season, then we’re no. 1 in Italy." --> "We made it to the quarterfinals of the CL and the semifinals of the CI and we won the Italian Super Cup."
Galliani: "In football you can win and lose, but what really counts is to always be competitive and remain at the highest level."
Galliani: "Whilst waiting for a future stadium that can increase our revenues, we need to improve the commercial sector."
Galliani: "If we want to reach the big clubs and be competitive in Europe, we have to increase our financial turnover."
Galliani: "It’s not a coincidence that when Milan were beating the English and Spanish club, Milan had higher revenues than Real Madrid."
Galliani: "But then different things happened, like broadcasting rights which are being distributed in a different way in Spain."--> "The Melandri law has ruined us."
Galliani: "Last night we were happy to see one of our Primavera players, De Sciglio, play at San Siro."
Galliani: "We saw De Sciglio play, but also others like Abate and Antonini are products of our youth department."
Galliani: "We are united and calm. There's still a long way to go with regard to the Scudetto."
Galliani: "Milan among the 8 best teams in Europe? Every time we play a CL match, I look at the rankings to see where we are."
Galliani: "There are teams ahead of us in the CL rankings which will be difficult to surpass. Currently we're 7th."
Galliani: "If Chelsea doesn't make it to the CL, then we will be in pot 1 next year in the CL."
Galliani: "A cataclysm would have to occur, but we are in the top 8 in the CL rankings."
Galliani: "How can I predict if Inter will make it to the CL? I want to know who predicted a CL final between Bayern and Chelsea."
Galliani: "Similarities between the Milan-Lazio Scudetto-race in 1999 and Milan-Juve now? No, it's different situation in my opinion."
Galliani: "Now we have lost many points at home, but we've gained many points away from home."
Galliani: "Football hasn't got any explanations, it's a sport that has a cyclical nature."
Galliani: "You have to accept victories and defeats. There will be a moment, where you either stop winning or start winning."
Galliani: "What Milan is missing is a stadium that they own completely."
Galliani, jokingly: "I keep the photo of Muntari's disallowed goal on my phone, so I don't forget it." -->"That way I can walk around, look at my phone and see a goal."
Galliani: "I've never understood the difference between playing first or last. In the end you have to win and that's it."
