[Kojak]

You are a poster who I respect very much, Kojak.

I remember us butting heads a few times a few years ago, but I've always respected your arguments, even after I turned into a seldom-poster-mostly-lurker-type of member due to my work & life sadly.

But you and several other posters, like Sam, hitchens, allo, brk, gen and so so many more are the only reason we lurkers keep coming back. hats off to you gents

Thanks buddy...appreciate the compliment.

Apologies if I was a bit abrupt in the past but Milan is my passion and I desperately want the club to return to the great heights of the team I fell in love with in the early 90s.

Fingers crossed your work situation improves and you're able to post more often as the more the merrier.

 

[mrki]

Hmmm.

Still world class

 

[mrki]

@Batman bro you're a good poster!

 

[Wild]

Pep Guardiola is disgusting @Wild

 

[Kojak]

We fucking went and lost to Spezia 2-0

fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucking whores

Lol I think we just have to accept that the squad has been poorly constructed hence the 'B' teams that Pioli fielded in the league during our CL run against Spezia, Cremonese, Udinese etc simply weren't up to scratch.

Hopefully MMM can address this during the upcoming window with a Mirabellend style clear-out.

 

[Wild]

For what exactly??? Valencia fans were chanting that he is monkey before he even stepped out of the bus. The fact that fans are allowed to racially abuse black players every single week across Europe is crazy. And these football associations not really caring about it
___

Funny how It’s always the people who never experienced racism that has the most to say

Who hasnt faced racism ?!

 

[Wild]

Racial abuse is an absolute no. Regardless of colour of skin. Ban them for one whole game if needed. Or dock points. There needs to be serious ramifications.

No point in having a band on your arm saying 'oh I have a friend from Africa or wherever. I am not racist. I also love touching their butts'. Fuck off Lel.

Some like vini are trash human beings but he doesn't deserved to be called a monkey.

Again why Vini is trash ?

 

[Soldier_of_god]

Hmmm.

Just 7 years too late. Like we were for pastore by about 10 years. Remember pastored guys?
I want3d pastore since his Palermo days but noooo. We would rather spend 30 mil odd on fat Ronaldinho instead hehe

 

[Wild]

Lol, just a month ago Napoli fans said the same of leao

Only reason they haven't marked it on his car is that he got there by plane

He was talking about Pep,not people.
Pep didnt like Carlos claiming all Barca fans are racist.
I was more ashamed with Pep when he said that white people should say sorry for 400 years of slavery , fuck that.

 

[Soldier_of_god]

Again why Vini is trash ?

His character. Phenomenal player. He is a bit of a douche bag. But he doesn't deserve to get called such names. Absolutely not

 

[Pigeon]

Even though I don´t kid myself into believing we can compete in the market with Arsenal, it´d still hurt my pride were we to pay them 30m for their sloppy seconds.

beggars can't be choosers
many important players on our team are sloppy seconds from other (top) teams

 

[MilanBG]

thiaw tonali also improved ,also sale improved a little bit

How exactly did Thiaw improve when he wasn't at Milan last season? Tonali looked great in some game, but also had awful ones. Salad was never a bad player, but right winger is simply not his position. Too bad the bald cunt will not drop his ineffective 4-2-3-1

 

[Wild]

Meanwhile Ancelotti



Different levels

You are becoming desperate its funny.
Now

 

[Wild]

His character. Phenomenal player. He is a bit of a douche bag. But he doesn't deserve to get called such names. Absolutely not

Yeah but bringing in his bad personality i

Theoretical question - if Vinicius decides to leave Spain and he is open to a move to Italy ( highly unlikely given the amount of racism in Serie A) and Real are willing to swap him with Leao ( again highly unlikely as I think in such a scenario they will go for Mbappe)... highly unlikely scenario just like Inter winning CL.. but IF it actually happened, will you be open to swap Leao and Vinicius??

Personally I will be okay with the swap as Vinicius, to me, is the third best attacker in the world while Leao is a top 10 -12 ish player.
Only worry in that scenario for me is that Leao is now better than what Vinicius was before Ancellotti took over. May be a better coach can make Leao better than Vinicius.
However in the present versions of both players, I would gladly swap the players.

Would like to know what RnB thinks.

Vini is better & even younger than Leao.

so with 11 point deduction, if these cheating fucks win their game tonight... and win against us the next game, we're still out of a CL spot

Need to get points vs Juve no matter what

Atalanta and Roma are still right there

 

[AC_Wesley]

liedhom meanwhile searching where the valencia forum is at

 

[Wild]

Agreed. I hope he goes to EPL.

Would do great under The goat.

 

[AC Kid]

In this scenario, if Juve beat us with one goal difference, we stay ahead of them on h2h.

I just hope it’s at least 11. I’m reading different numbers

 

[AC Kid]

12 is perfect. And Roma to draw just once

If this happens, we have to just beat Verona on last day and we’ll be in CL

 

[pippofan]

What? You never heard of age fudging. Look up the nazio player pretending to be 20 years old. Some African dude.
Wouldn't surprise me if south Americans do the same.
Looking at some Italian players, they don't look their age either. That's why they go out of their prime after a short peak.

Regarding Tonali......there are pics of him at various ages with Milan jerseys on and the years they were taken. Then his career at Brescia, games with Italy's under 19, 21, etc so there's no question he's the age they say he is. In general in Italy there are a ton of documents that prove someone's age: birth certificates, health cards, baptism, communion, school records, so fudging ages is very difficult and it's not something they do. Contrary to what many here believe and despite the maddening bureaucracy, Italy is not a third world country.

Today's edition of the Gazzetta dello Sport has the following headline this morning regarding the Rossoneri's summer market: "100 million for the new Milan". To the 50 million euro budget, the Devil's managers aim to add another 50 million to this figure which could come from the sale of some players, including for example Rebic and Origi. The main goal is to strengthen midfield and attack for next season.

Just for the love of god go the quality road even if it meant one quality player/season.

 

[Kojak]

So you want to replace a starting player with a player that has "potential" and might succeed, when the starting player costs almost the same (22 mil vs 15 mil ) as the the player with "potential"? And then Milan waits another 2 years for the "potential" that may or may not come through! Meanwhile the club has to go through even worse performances!

And for Bennacer , Krunic, & Adli, it's a bad thing that they come from relegated teams but for Baldanzi it's a good thing coming from the 14th place team???

Also do you you really think management would have bought Messias and Salad if their RW budget was 25-30 mil per player??

And since you talk about Hakan, Donna and Kessie leaving because of too big salary requests, then what about Suso, Cutrone, Piatek, Samu, Romagnoli, Hauge,....??? Were their salaries also too high??

And you were definitely a big fan of signing Sensi over Bennacer!!

If you've been following my posts, you'd know that I actually want to get rid of BOTH Brahim + CDK and replace them with SMS + Baldanzi during the upcoming mercato. That way, we'd have two credible (albeit very different) options for AM plus SMS can also be deployed further down the pitch @ CM. However, even if we can't afford both players, I've seen enough from Baldanzi to know that he's on a completely DIFFERENT wavelength to the rest of his Empoli teammates. Therefore, given his high footballing IQ, decision-making + technical skills, I've no doubt that he'd not only be able to hit the ground running in his debut season with Milan (unlike CDK) but also would've racked up far more goals + assists had he been playing for us THIS season. Like I said before, I'm not in the habit of overrating Italian talents but I haven't been this optimistic about one since Tonali. Also, just like Sandro, Baldanzi is a lifelong Milan fan so would play his heart out every single game which can't be overlooked.

For the record, I don't CARE whether we sign somebody from a relegated team but that doesn't mean I can't JOKE about it. After all, I was practically the only poster advocating for Tonali during his Brescia days (whereas you were probably cheerleading for Sensi) and was delighted that we signed him after they got relegated.

Re Messias + Salad, has it ever occurred to you that the reason we DON'T have 20m+ to reinforce this position properly is because MM have actually wasted 17.5m redeeming both players (+5m if you include Florenzi)? Also, they failed to cash in on Salad last summer which could've been used to sign a better winger plus Napoli bought Kvara for just 12m so you don't actually need to waste 25-30m.

As for the likes of Paqueta, Suso, Cutrone, Piatek etc...all of these players were sold at the BEGINNING of Maldini's tenure as we desperately needed funds to upgrade the team. However, it's no secret that since winning the Scudetto, we've sold NOBODY and he's undeservedly rewarded mediocre players like Messias, Florenzi, Ibra (injury prone legend), Baka, Krunic, Salad etc. which strongly implies that he's thinking with his heart instead of his head.

PS: I never rated Sensi - scroll through my posts and you'll see that I only talked about him in a negative light.

Now kindly fuck off!

 

[pippofan]

only KDB has more assists than Brahim in 2023 in top 5 leagues

I was kinda hoping he might go back to Real but if he stays I’ll be happy for him knowing how much he loves it here

just not our starting CAM next season please!!

I would keep him only if they let him play as right wing, with Kamada or someone else as AM.

 

[Wild]

Hmmm.

36 years old & missed half the season with Juve.
I love him as a player but no.

 

[Az.]

You just know with Milan lab, it’s a guarantee 100% season miss.

 

[Wild]

so with 11 point deduction, if these cheating fucks win their game tonight... and win against us the next game, we're still out of a CL spot

Would we earn the right to complain if that happened though ?!

Yeah, I want consistent performers. Most excited about Okafor actually out of all the players linked.

 

[pippofan]

He’s “burst damage” kind of player.

Unreal to expect him to maintain that type of threat throughout the game.

Leao is a sprinter not a long distance runner so he needs to chill a little before going on his bursts. If he played all out he would tire and lose his speed. He does contribute defensively at times, more than in the past, but needs to preserve his energy for the attacking phase.
