For those living in the U.S. the match today is televised on CBS Sports. 8.00 AM my time so I'm DVR, (taping it) in case I over-sleep.

You guys bash the pokemon. Pokemon in a system that suits their skills is better than anything else. Signing star players who don't fit the system never works. Signing young players who have ability to.fit into a system is wat Leipzig and those clubs do.

I'm so glad I don't use TicTok or X... Dafuq do you guys torture yourself with it for... And Leao, dude... I listen to Tay Tay and don't have a fucking handbag bro?

Regarding his interviews, I think @Master Smurf was right, no one is blameless or comes out smelling of roses. Although Leao can see himself as a Real quality player, just like I can see myself any way I want.

Mistakes have been made and all sides, it's actually a shame, more than a laughing matter... But if you don't laugh, you forget to take your shoes off, or something like that.

The issue seems to be that he still has 18.5M book value, that's why we kept asking for those 18M while Villa kept offering 15M. Registering a minusvalenza wouldn't have helped us at all signing new players – en contraire. At this point, you can just as good keep him for a little longer and hope someone else will pay the price that avoids a minusvalenza.
Nah, we gotta cut more than a few fodder loose... If the club can't absorb a few million, for the betterment of the mercato, that's weak!!!

Fuck book value, Estupinian, RLC and ChuK all need GONE!!!

Wow, so there's a 14 hour difference between us!. Didn't realize it was that much. Kind of late for you but not too late. Hope we play well and show some progress in adjusting to a new system.

We bought Estupinan for 17m euro, no? So his NBV is between 13m to 14m.

Musah is very likely to stay to stay, Amorim really appreciates his qualities and sees him as an integral part of the squad due to his versatility. He believes he can transform Musah into a promising wingback.
The players that are not part of the plan are Fofana, Ricci and Estupinan.

Amorim also rates jhshari and wants to keep him.

Serie a games are at 5 am to 6 am. Around that time for me

That’s why I am always pissed off. I do have full replays but I don’t like knowing the score before I watch a game. I prefer live.

If Milan wants to grow globally, first fix the timings/schedule to cater for Asia and Australia.

Musah before Ricci? Musah as a Wing back?

Im hoping for the best but Im getting ready for a short season. It might all be over by december.

Best news about all of this for me is the fact that there's a high likelihood we sign a replacement for Pervis. That will be an extremely important signing to get right.

If Leao goes as well, and we're left with a 100% money for new AM and LWB, I'd spend 70% on a new WB and sign a younger prospect for the AM for the remainder.

I like the defense with the addition of Gila.

In the absence of movement, and a potential "fine as we are" statement, Musah as a back up for Salad isn't a move I'll lose sleep over.

I advocated for Musah being recalled last January, simply to offer Salad some rest. We all saw how Salad's form dipped.

If we can sign a player to compete with Salad, keeping one we already have actually makes sense, even if we'd all hope for better.

As long as Musah is told to stay out of the box, not to shoot, and play things simple, he might do ok.

But let's be clear, we need cover for Salad, or someone to start ahead of him, and a starter ahead of Barte, these are absolute deal breakers for the upcoming season.

Musah IMO is capable of playing RWB.
He can do well there.

[Quarez] PSG demands €160-170M for Barcola as Liverpool refuses to meet the asking price, with no official bid submitted yet​


And people here thought we had a chance to sign Barcola. :lol:

This is the way.

Clubs really shouldn't be hyper-focused on signing players that fit a new manager's system, only for that manager to be out the door within 2 years. If those players don't have versatile skillsets you're going to be left with a lot of scraps, expensive ones at that.

Especially in the case for someone like Amorim, who uses a non-traditional 3-4-2-1 with a lot of demanding elements.

I firmly believe it's up to the manager to use what is at his disposal, but its also useless trying to shoehorn star players into positions that don't favour them. Unfortunately it seems like our management still hasn't worked out a transfer plan that doesn't hurt us in the long run. It's a perpetual cycle of: "what profile does this manager like? >>> "what's the best we can do under X amount".... with no future forethought.
