Be prepared for Loftus-Cheek's runs - trying to look like a bulldozer, looking straight into the ground, not realizing he has teammates.
Or disappearing for the majority of the match...

I think it’s kind of crazy to be pushing Leao and Nkunku out right now when we have Cisse and RLC as our LAM and RAM at the moment.
Yeah, I'm thinking similarly.

Let's see how it plays out.

If the plan is to replace both with better, starting quality players, that bench RLC, I can get on board with that.

Currently, it's all yet to be determined...

The squad is so average in every departement bar GK (Maignan-Torriani). Even when we get those 3 new starters, players like Gabbia-De Winter will be main XI. "We are one mercato away from one mercato away from one mercato away". This is the world you've built, Gerry

We need AT LEAST 2 new starters so we can build a team that can play good football this season.

The starting 11 is far from desired but people need to stop overreacting with the banter era.

As soon as Puli, Rabiot and Moreira are starting its another story.

As for this Torino game...just win somehow and build from there with best players available and duds cleared out.

Milan are behind Inter.

About on par or a bit worse than Roma.
Napoli/Juventus are worse for sure
Como looks to have more cohesion but are going to be rattled with CL and Atalanta are in a transition period.

Doesn't look too bad. It also looks like we are definitely getting at least 1-2 quality signings. (CB+attacking player)

Before the terrorist, Pulisic was our best and most consistent player, gave max effort every match, I am hoping that guy is back.

1-2 new guys + a good season from Puli puts us above Roma as well imo.

Pulisic was most prolific starting last season and then evaporated - if he can find that form then he is fine.

We were 2nd for a large portion of last season so I believe we should be in the mix for top if people buy in and Amorim's plans are sound.

As much as I dislike Chuk, RLC is the bigger worry if he is going to be a starter. If he is a placeholder then we should be fine imho.

‘They finished third, we fifth, therefore they have a better roster’
That’s peak RnB logic
And how do you measure which team is better? Aren't the results relevant? Don't know about RnB logic but saying a team with 3 points less than another is better is illogical.

too many great players to list but if pushed all time favorite player: Maldini
Then a new Mendes player will arrivé with 60 millions plus 25 millions as bonuses.
Mendes has been directing Gerry in who to buy.
