The Rumour Commode XI

[rossonero1]

Is Illaramendi hurt? He's not on the bench for Madrids match tonight. If he's not a loan move for him looks more likely.

 

[Sorriso Sempre]

Maybe, at the end of the day, for one time my forever-optimistic-naive way to look on things won't have been that naive or unrealistic

Look, if I wasn't so optimistic all the time I wouldn't support this team anymore I think, it's just my way to look on things in live overall. Glass is always half full and so on. I know things are not looking splendid right now, but when I compare the situation when Galliani and Baraba were at war and Allegri our manager with the situation today - a management who seems to pull on the same string (Silvio included - wow!) and Pippo who brings back a "hard-working-be-humble-not-divas" mentality - then I can't deny that things got better. Not good or splendid or excellent - just better. And for me that's enough to look at least partly optimistic forward. That's how I think and I stand for it .


Generally (not refering to you Razor anymore ):
We are not the only ones having problems in Serie A, it's the whole league being in a crisis. Roma for example who has often been named as an example of a team who's quite successfull with smart transfers and so called "good management" ended up in the target list of UEFA's FFP task force. It was reported in august, september and recently again.

I have to underline that I don't think everything is good or perfect at AC Milan, but on the other hand, things could be worse. Is Roma really the example we should follow, considered the last reports of constant rising financial debts? Maybe our current transfer-policy is not satisfying, but probably we have no other choice. Sure the Essien vs. Jorginho case is an example for poor management. I think G learned his lession. My last post about Torres was to explain my view at this transfer; I don't think he was a panic buy like Essien.

The other example who people likes to mention to underline our "poor management" is the Cristante-case: We wantet to keep him, we rejected several times Benficas offers and Silvio himself said he wants Cristante to be a future key-player of Milan. At the end, it was Cirstante himself expressing that he wants to leave, that he wants to take what he thinks is the easier way. He refused to fight for his spot under Pippo, he thought he would get more playing time at Benfica. I don't know why so many people are blaming our management who really tried everything to keep him instead of blaming Cristante who at the end of the day was the one who didn't want to fight for this shirt.

the offers we rejected were in the 4m range....so its only logical to reject those offers.and cristante didnt say anything about leaving milan while still a milan player.he only said that he wanted to join benfica after his transfer which also is common among players when they join a club to say that they wanted to be there...

It's also common not to say at least officially and in public that you want to leave as long as the deal isn't done. Afterwards both Pippo and Galliani said it was Cristante who asked to leave while both tried to convince him to stay… it was Cristante's choice to leave, not Milan's.

Wait here is one of numerous sources:

Rossoneri CEO Adriano Galliani spoke about the exit of Cristante: “The boy asked us to sell him because they are too many players here. I tried to convince him but he wanted to go on loan. I had proposed to him to go on loan to another Italian team but he said that he didn’t want to play against Milan so he went abroad. We reinvested the amount we received for Cristante in Bonaventura, who is still very young and has great qualities, both on the human and the technical aspects.”

 

[Master Smurf]

Alex and Rami are fine imo - If we could find a real partner for them so they dont have to play together all the time then that would be better.

Once again we handcuff ourselves with some of these choices - Bonera, Essien for so long, Menez when you see he isnt lighting it up.

The honeymoon is truly over. We are who we thought we were *Denis Green voice and I hope Pippo would just banish some of these players and keep others on a tight leash.

We are going to need to steal some great young CB from somewhere or else nothing will change at the back and Tassoti still cant sort out setpieces

Baselli - talented young Italian

But Muntari will still be the starter.

 

[Goodfella]

But Muntari will still be the starter.

Baselli is hardly starting material for Atalanta. If he doesn't start for us then it's because he's not good enough(yet).

Which quality mid got benched for no good reason b/c of Muntari? Cristante? He was in no way ready to start and will probably soon bitch about his situation in Benfica because they don't want to play him regularly either.
Poli? ..lol
Bonaventura? He is starting.
LvG? Muntari's not the reason he isn't starting.

are you fucking kidding me??? did you ever expect that would tell that he wanted to sell him and not the player wanted to go??

So do I, choosing to run with some insane theory that furthers their viewpoint instead of seeing the objective evidence and accepting that as the series of events.

I'm talking to you in normal way and without any offense, underlining my posts with some sources who at least confirm what I am saying (some conspirancy theorists could debate that statements, that's OK for me), and all I got as an answer from you is that!? Seriuosly?

You're just embarassing yourself with such posts. And you don't even realize it... that's when I start wondering about some members iq level. Anyway I think there is nothing more to add to this discussion as it seems it will lead only into childish insults. So let's make a point and end it here.

Geis confirms Milan talks

Germany Under-21 international Johannes Geis is in talks with Milan, confirmed the Mainz man’s agent.
“It’s true, we have been contacted by intermediaries coming from Italy,” representative Bjorn Bezemer told German paper Kicker.“At the moment I cannot say any more, but it is an honour for any professional football player to be of interest to a great club like Milan.”

Geis is a 21-year-old central midfielder with a contract holding him to Mainz until 2017.
He has also been linked to Borussia Dortmund and made the move from Greuther Furth in July 2013 for just €900,000.

CALCIOMERCATO MILAN MCCARTHY EVERTON / MILAN - Milan is looking for reinforcements for the winter transfer : Inzaghi could have a new player in midfield. According to reports the ' Daily Star ' , in fact , the Rossoneri have set their sights on James McCarthy, 23 year-old Everton midfielder , also followed by Manchester United. The agent of the player would have already had their first contact with Milan : on McCarthy would also be Inter.

Woah
I've seen Mediaset linking us with a January move for him. Any bundesfodder fanboys here - what's he like?


Also, G has apparently approached Everton's Ireland international McCarthy. (apparently he doesn't want to renew) Didn't Everton pay big money for this guy?

Id take Shane Long instead of any CF at Milan on current form...

Everton around €16/€17m for him last year, his contract is until 2018.He's no world beater but us good , better than Poli Muntari Essien Saponara thats for sure.What Everton would want Milan cant afford.

 

[Australiano1980]

we will get kuzmanovic . he is free next season.

kuzmanovic pizzaro lazzari. vamos.

pasqual

 

[rossonero1]

I think Illaramendi is the midfielder that will come on loan. Maybe someone else that is cheap if a midfielder leaves (Essien gone or Saponara on loan). But what's the difference, Inzaghi would still field Muntari in the starting XI every chance he gets. He was going to sub Van Ginkel on yesterday in the last minute or so of extra time, if I was MVG I would've told him to shove it and took a seat. Baffles me how Niang hasn't been given a chance either on the wing or at CF.

Illaramendi seems like possible option. You are right for Muntari part.
Niang really should be getting some minutes, kid showed he has skills to play.

 

[LemonCookies]

McCarthy would be a great buy, but also a gamble.

Why can't we buy tall defensive midfielders?

no, he would have.

Then he'd be selling car insurance for the next 30 years after he was fired from the team

A Tipperary man playing for Milan

As good as Keane's record is, hope Long starts against Scotland.

He proved against Djokovic in the US Open semi, how good he can be.

Went to the Everton forum to check if there's anything on him to Milan.. nothing haha, seems like its BS

Most people there praise him tho, say they cant believe how good he is, best player in the squad etc. The rumor said hes unsettled and refused to renew

He may be a Tipp man but he learned the art in Cork

Start them both.
