I like Torriani a lot and wouldn't mind shipping fat Mike and start him instead. That last save was fantastic, excellent athlete even if he doesn't look it.

Tomori and Chucky were awful, no way should the Nigerian play wing-back, too weak defensively and not even fast. Estupinian is a disaster waiting to happen, hope Amorim sees this and stops with the evaluation bullshit, all you have to do is see the mistakes he makes, bad passing, weak man-marking, should have took the money and run.

Don't know why Comotto didn't play, maybe is injured, but out midfield with Modric and Jashari looked much better than Musah/Fofana while RLC cannot play CAM, in fact shouldn't play for us at all. I thought Gabbia and Pavlovic played well and the goal was more of a Tomori/Chuck fuck up with Gabbia not enough time to cover for them.

Leao did well but should have shot on goal rather than try to pass in a crowded center, only a few feet away from the net it would have been an easy goal. Nkunku does have an ability to cause penalty kicks and takes them well but thought Ramos would take it. Our new striker showed good movements but didn't receive enough service.

We have a bloated roster, over 30 players, and once we get back to Italy we have to start selling and loaning out, not be too picky on our demands for one or two million, and get at leat 3 more functioning players for the start of the season.

With Mastantuono on loan to Fiorentina from Real Madrid almost done, I would focus on Soule'. Roma asks for 40 we're willing to pay 30, do it for 35 including easy to reach bonuses. Soule` is not a top player but a good one that can provide some goals and assists to the cause.

Cissé is a really interesting player. We've been saying for a long time that we should scout more in Italy before even looking at other countries , but Moncada seemed to focus almost exclusively on France. Maybe he was fooled by Cissé's name and assumed that he is French :lol:

RLC wasn´t bad imo, had a few impressive moments even. Not that he should necessarily start for us but the RAM position isn´t a bad fit for him at all.
While I wouldn´t give too much about them, even all ratings I have seen so far, gave him either a 6 or 6,5, Sempremilan even has him as MOTM.

During his brief cameo in Glasgow he certainly caught the eye more than most of the other youngsters.

Direct, didn't look out of place, athletic, confident... Here's hoping we've unearthed a decent Pokémon at long last.

If Leao is staying then I wouldn’t spend much on the attack

Even in defense there are bodies atm

Wingback should be high priority but anyone worth a damn is so expensive

Wingbacks are a MUST!!!

Salad and Barte are more than good enough for rotation, but we need players on both sides that actually level us up.

Get Villa on the phone and get that Estu deal over the line, please dear god.

Then get rid of ChuK, RLC and a few other fodders.

Surely we need to see our Director of Player Sales to start ramping up his workload????!!!

He is too negative in his play - just happy to win a free kick like he knows that is a plus for analytics. - He is probably the slowest to make a decision, even worse than Musah and is too happy to go backwards or wait for the bail out from the ref.

He is the epitome of not playing to win - Origi time for him if they cant find some dumb EPL team to loan him to.
Turning up for 1-2 matches per season like Bennacer is not good enough.

Moncada likes black players the same way the white people in movie "get out" did

Following the Tzolakis deal, half the Premier League has now announced a record transfer this summer. Alongside newly promoted sides Ipswich and Coventry, the long list also includes Chelsea, Man City, Tottenham, Aston Villa, Brighton, Brentford and Fulham – a list to which Leeds United will soon be added. The Whites have also made James Trafford (23), a goalkeeper, the most expensive signing in the club’s history.

Like 5 times better than anything we saw last season from Gimenez
It’s something I guess let’s hope he works out and doesn’t turn into a €80M Gimenez.

First time I got to see a friendly, albeit only saw the second half, but you get an idea of what Amorim is trying to do

I’m being 100% genuine when I say this, Terracianno should start over Tomori

He was very good at Cremona in the first half of the season. Fell off in the 2nd half with the rest of the team but we should keep him for sure.

Glad he had a good first showing.

But we have to sign wingbacks! Lack of quality there will punish us again and again this coming season, if we don't elevate the quality of our starters.

You can tell instantly that Ramos comes from a club that's won the Champions League twice. His pressing is intense, and his first touch is pure quality.
They always start good when they come, like Walker and many others.
Then we introduce them to Milan way and they become shit

I like Torriani a lot and wouldn't mind shipping fat Mike and start him instead. That last save was fantastic, excellent athlete even if he doesn't look it.

Tomori and Chucky were awful, no way should the Nigerian play wing-back, too weak defensively and not even fast. Estupinian is a disaster waiting to happen, hope Amorim sees this and stops with the evaluation bullshit, all you have to do is see the mistakes he makes, bad passing, weak man-marking, should have took the money and run.

Don't know why Comotto didn't play, maybe is injured, but out midfield with Modric and Jashari looked much better than Musah/Fofana while RLC cannot play CAM, in fact shouldn't play for us at all. I thought Gabbia and Pavlovic played well and the goal was more of a Tomori/Chuck fuck up with Gabbia not enough time to cover for them.

Nkunku does have an ability to cause penalty kicks and takes them well but thought Ramos would take it. Our new striker showed good movements but didn't receive enough service.

We have a bloated roster, over 30 players, and once we get back to Italy we have to start selling and loaning out, not be too picky on our demands for one or two million, and get at leat 3 more functioning players for the start of the season.

With Mastantuono on loan to Fiorentina from Real Madrid almost done, I would focus on Soule'. Roma asks for 40 we're willing to pay 30, do it for 35 including easy to reach bonuses. Soule` is not a top player but a good one that can provide some goals and assists to the cause.
Leao-Pulisic-Nkunku 2 of them has to be sold, fund and leave the space for Soulè.

Cacciamani can uprade the wing.

Now everyone share my opinion, yeah a young Italian is cheaper and less worse than any overrated abroad player, specially the Chelsea Trash.

Sempre Milan be drunk:

Loftus-Cheek (7.5 – MOTM): Wonderful performance from the Englishman, it has to be said. He should have had an assist, doing everything right to set up Musah, and he created more chances on his own. Smart passing and movement were two more things he showcased as well.

I've never seen anything other than an average player. He isn't efficient, effective, assertive, clever, creative, athletic... Anything that warrants 4+ million a year and the amount of minutes he's racked up.

Even as a back up I'd rather give a youngster more minutes.

Maybe his stats are good, but the eye test... Fuck he's an actual idiot!!!

Runs into holes rather than space, makes poor decisions when it's time to release the ball, gets manhandled way to easily, and is a ghost for large parts of games.

Why he's still here is beyond me... I can only think Milan don't want to cut their losses and take a low offer, because "accounting scudetto"?

Only a draw against Inter.

That means we are worse than last season.

On this occasion yeah... But we do get a stung with that Italian tax, and, duh, accounting scudetto?

But yeah, if ever there was a year to try some homegrown guys, this is it.

Loan Kostic and keep Camarda. Give RLC's minutes to Cisse and Comotto over the course.

Play Torriani in the cup or something...

Hell, Terracianno might be more useful than some according to some in here... But I'm not sure on that one lol.
