Messias rw you know

I want to waterboard this terrorist
I don't want to see Messias/Salads names in the squad list next season when we have this guy waiting in the wings. After all, Messias was a fridge delivery driver plying his trade in Serie B (with just one season in the top flight under his belt) before we signed him whereas Salad was a jack of all trades playing in the same league as CDK which says everything :LOL: There's absolutely no way in hell that Chaka could do any worse if Pioli has the BALLS to field him.

May be an unpopular opinion, but I believe we should be washing. (Bidet)

I personally use tp, tried the whole wet wipes thing, but it’s just not the same.

Think it’s time we start asking the real questions here on RnB :lol:

Makes you think, doesn't it.

You don't get it do you?
He needs to stay in the Primavera for another season so that we can claim him as homegrown.
Then we can use him all we want AND he won't take up another foreigner space on our UCL list.

You know what the sad thing is? It'll be pretty embarrassing if MIlan can't score over 2 legs against a backline that consists of Darmian, Acerbi and Bastoni. Most clubs would be licking their chops if that was the defense you had to go against in a CL semifinal.

You sure? I've never heard that one before...also, his contract expires in 2024 so we might not even get the chance to use him unless he renews.

Lol true especially when you consider that both Darmian + Slowcerbi are Milan REJECTS! :LOL:

It's gonna be a tough battle tonight...



PS: 3:21 onwards seems like a well coordinated team move we could use to freeze the opposition in their tracks and score...

How does a player qualify as homegrown?

A "Home-Grown Player" means a player who, irrespective of nationality or age, has been registered with any club affiliated to Their countries' Football Association for a period, continuous or not, of three entire seasons, or 36 months, before his 21st birthday (or the end of the season during which he turns 21).


What's a 'locally trained player'?

There are two categories:

1. Club-trained players players who were on a club's books for three years between the ages of 15 and 21.

2. Association-trained players players who were on another club's books in the same association for three years between the ages of 15 and 21. No club can have more than four association-trained players among their eight 'local' nominees on List A.

Pioli is all about breaking records whether good or bad. Here's hoping this is a good one he breaks :D

Chaka has been playing for Parma since 19/20 so should qualify for homegrown status at the end of this season.

We want him as club trained, because theres 2 types of "homegrown" 4 have to be Club trained, 4 Italy-trained (not necessarily from our club).

If he makes the Club-Trained list, then we can get rid of the likes of Gabbia and bring in some upgrades elsewhere.

The player just has to play 3 years for the same club before 21 to become home grown. It doesn't matter if it's the youth team or the senior team. It can be a combination of both.

At the same time, Chaka isn't yet ready for Milan senior team. He hasn't exactly been killing it with the Primavera.

I have no hope. But we’ll see
An early goal or penalty can change the game

We want him as club trained.
Currently we have Pobega, Calabria, Gabbia there.
We're wasting an unused UCL player slot (each club gets 4).

Fuck corporate America. Not gonna be able to watch possibly our biggest game of the season. Saw Leao on the team sheet so I have some hope but not expecting us to go through. I just hope we at least put in a good effort this time around with the world watching.

Anyway, Forza Milan! Hoping for the best. ❤️🖤

I'm not disagreeing that Milan needs another club trained player. I just said that next year if Chaka plays in Milan Primavera or in Milan senior team then after the end of the season he becomes club trained as he will have done 3 yrs at Milan. All 3 years don't have to be in Primavera!

Though because he's not that ready yet, it's probably better he stays in Primavera for next year and maybe gets a few call ups to senior team if does really well. Also Diego Sia has been quite good on the left wing and he is 1 year younger than Traore.
