Well, not yet. And De Zerbi isn't the only candidate. Italiano, Nagelsmann... maybe even Spalletti soon? Finding a couple of suitable names that aren't newly graduated ex-players doesn't seem the problem to me :lol:

Eitherway it doesn't look like Pioli will leave at the end of the season and De Zerbi (my ideal pick) doesn't look like he's willing to end his EPL stint already, so we're talking hypotheticals anyway.
Correct - everything points to us just getting better players and giving Pioli another go.

Let's see if we actually take a more ambitious approach transfer-wise then we can dream of these coaching changes.

We probably won't see many changes to the squad

- Pioli will stay on as head coach.
- Cdgay may be used as a RW or CF , if its RW then maybe Messias will be sold or Saelemakers becomes vice Leao and Rebic is sold.
- I dont think Diaz will be redeemed for over 20m and it seems like Kamada will replace him.
- Ibra seems like he will finally retire and we will probably get an Arnautovic to replace him or someone similar. I doubt we will sign a young CF.
- maybe we will sign a defensive midfielder, I think we redeem Vranckx or sign an unknown for cheap or loan w/option.
- somehow ballo toure stays. Maybe we sign a versatile full back to replace Dest. I have a feeling we will get Mazzochi from Salernitana and he's a good player.

We can use Theo to lower Brahim’s price.

it was insane . I love their burger, not a big fan of fries but that coke wtf.
I’m not obsessed with it like many here, but a Coke and a burger from there never disappoints. I haven’t been to In N Out in years. Need to hit it up when bulking season returns.

Fuck that, he has been a an awesome member of the squad and has actually delivered a lot for Milan in key moments. Not how we should treat our players.
People made wrong hashtag, it should be #diaz15milorout

Roger Federer is the GOAT


Shevchenko was so classy 😍

When are we gonna have a striker like him again and playing in Milan for a decent 4-6 years?

IbraGOD was nice but he was here too little time. 2 seasons in his prime and basically only in 2020 he was still good. After that injuries took over.

I think to score against such teams it's more useful to have some players who are good at long distance striking like how Kaka was. Kamada seems decent at long distance striking. Someone like SMS would also be useful against low block teams. Having some big players is definitely useful. I don't know if it has to be the striker that has to be big. Also you need players that are good at passing the ball around near the opponents box to open them.

Is there some data or stats to show to show the effectiveness of big strikers versus smaller strikers against defensive teams? Or is this something that some people just have a feeling about? Hasn't Dybala been scoring a big amount of goals against all sorts of teams despite being a midget?!
Funny that in reality our best striker rarely a big players (bar Ibra and Bierhoff)

It really puzzles me when I see Kahn in ‘all-time 11’ line ups. Apart from being a total douchebag, he was just plain mediocre.

Man if only we kept ibra and silva. 3 or 4 more scudetti and maybe a champions league with some luck.

Can never ever forgive B and G for their negligence and lack of accountability which caused our demise.

From my point of view, the team was completely finished. Something could/must have been built around Ibra and Silva.

Berlusconi and Galliani fucked up too much after the Champions League victory in 2007.

Kaka, for example, was sold far too cheaply. Plus many, many stupid transfers with Genoa and those nostalgia transfers like Beckham & Ronaldinho. Plus completely dysfunctional salaries.

Imagine if we had just kept Aubameyang instead of loaning a cucumber like Maxi Lopez.

The number of mistakes between 2008 and 2016 is just completely sick and you could fill a book with it.

If Berlusconi and Galliani hadn't failed so badly, we'd be fighting with Real for the number 1 spot in the world today.

I agree on many of the points, but we didn't sell Kaka too cheaply imo. He was already on the downtrend and was injured most of the time throughout his stint in Real. 67M € at the time was astronomical sum for a player

They achieve this by sacrificing us. That's what happened when you're hiring your arch-enemy's fans as your coach.

Abumyang was one mistake
Getting fucking fat fuck Ronaldinho instead of fit Ronaldinho was a major blunder. Should have Beeb eto actually.
We would have easily won a few more scudetti with etoo if we bought him as a replacement for kaka.
Not getting pastore at his peak for cheap like 20 30 mil from Palermo. Instead we bought David bitch ass beckham.
Not getting tevez. Whinging about 25 fucking million and instead we buy maxi Lopez and some crap like bacca.
The one world class player from Genoa I.e milito who would have been so useful was never acquired. Instead we bought fodders like piatek Lel in our banter era.
We bought poli, nocerino and accumulated so many fodders to make matters worse. Beyond pathetic. Horrendous mismanagement of funds.
