The Rumour Commode XLI: Ragnarok

Scenes at R&B when Diaz wins a CL before Pioli's boys
Scenes at R&B when Diaz invites his old friend Theo to "come home"
Scenes in brk's underwear when Leao hands in a transfer request

I hope Brahim becomes the greatest player in Madrid's history and his one request to Perez is to have Pioli coach the team

And they poach Pioli

What excites me most about Brahim possibly returning to Madrid will force us to sign someone exciting in his stead.

Someone like Orsolini?

 

[BillyTheKid]

They're probably giving Adli the 10, right?

Right guys?

Guys?

What's wrong with 7?

You expect Pioli to be here for eternity?

And you know who.

 

[Gennaro8]

If they give 100M for mercato, they will expect results. Thats not good for Pioli

 

[Wild]

And you know who.

A dream.
I doubt it but boy i want it.

As far as Milan is concerned, yeah luck was definitely involved obviously. Tottenham was the easiest side we could have drawn in R16 and Napoli is a good matchup. Even so, there is a clear debate Napoli are superior to us this season.

Tottenham was easy now? Easy? People have said here that Milan would be relegated in the EPL. How often did we hear "let's beat an EPL team first before we talk," hm?

The reason why Spurs was an easy tie was because... Pioli didn't stumble into the simplistic traps that Conte wanted him to. Those stupid 352/343 bullshit formations (particularly those deployed by Conte) are centered around one team taking initiative and then using the fact you don't have relegation-quality attackers to punish the other team in transition.

If Pioli played Spurs like he did against Inter, I think we would have seen a similar outcome.

I think looking at Tottenham as "easy" is revisionism. Genuinely. The solution for the 352/343 with us is having either a truly physical presence in the center, to disrupt their build-up and source of their transitions (like Krunic or Pobega [against Juve]--or even the hardwork [and respect Inter gave the threat of] CDK did in the first derby this season) or you have a CAM that is so threatening, attacking-wise that it forces their midfield out of it's shape.

Pioli used this strategy to great effect against Juve, won comfortably, and then went back to a 424 against Juve when playing them the second time. Why?

Pioli didn't learn his lesson against Spurs when he played Inter. Which is maddening.

Hand-waiving away the challenge of Napoli due to... "match ups" means that... if we played against stronger sides, that played domineering football like Napoli does... we'd be... "matched up well" against them... so was Tottenham really the easiest team for us to face? Because it seems that when teams attack us, we tend to slap the shit out of them.

Napoli isn't about "match-ups" it's about tactics. Pioli wants to use his "fastball" no matter what. Even when he knows the curveball will work better, he insists on using a fastball.

The weird thing is... he figured it out against Juve, without prompting, by playing Pobega there the first time. Without warning. So he's capable of figuring things out, without needing some accident, like using a 343 in response to a 343 being the best approach for us, which only happened because of the January crisis.... so why does he do the things that he does?

 

[Samaldinho]

He's a rock solid player brother. He would add a lot of quality to our midfield. Personally I prefer an advanced midfielder who has a killer pass, but they are hard to come by.

Now lets carry on from where we left

What's wrong with 7?

Nothing. I'm just in the bargaining stage as I watch Adli go to Salernitana.

 

[leaf]

Damn leaf what went wrong today?

I dunno. I just think that Diaz is a good kid who could have flourished if only Pioli put down the bottle and played him RW where he did so well.
Apologies for the dark ass post

 

[Omer]

People will be so disappointed by SMS if he arrives. The guy is the definition of choker.

It's fine if he chokes against big teams as long as he makes 15 G/A against the small teams. Milan's problems were against the small teams.

Lol too bad he averages 19 goal contributions a season in Serie A over the past 3 years (no pens).

 

[Omer]

Nothing. I'm just in the bargaining stage as I watch Adli go to Salernitana.

It's fine if it'a a loan. If Adli shows that he's a top player in Serie A, then either he comes back and plays much more or Milan get to sell him for 20 million plus. Only if it's a loan with a cheap option then it can end up not so good.

 

[Raghav]

we need to focus on attackers who can fucking beat players 1v1. We literally only had Leao who can do this .. atleast 2 wingers in this mould need to be bought plus a good mobile striker with pace..

you gotta admit Tfat obliterated you there. Make sweet sweet love to that L

What he do exactly that was surprising
He could as well also search all my posts about kessie, leao and all the other milan players i liked/like

And Facepalming one of my posts is so unusual of you.
Speaking of L’s don’t make me talk about all the times yungfreddy humbled you

 

[Gennaro8]

Adli to Monza would be perfect. Good, solid team. He should not go to some bad team. Also Colombo needs to change the team.

 

[Hitchens]

Rumours going around that Man Utd would be willing to pay Maguire 10m for him to leave the club this summer

 

[Qaas]

Fuck that serbian bum.. give leao the nr 10
Even giroud knows

 

[Qaas]

Brahim is a true Milanista, sad to see him go.

I really don't see him breaking through in Madrid, though I wish him all the success in the world.

Yes. He was a good boy
Going to miss this

 

[ROSSONERI7]

Beef between Pioli and Kjaer?
For sure, not as bad as the media want to paint it.

 

[BreadPitt]

I have a feeling Scamacca will be here on a loan with option to buy.

Wouldn't really mind him, he doesn't fit West Ham's game and would slot into how Pioli plays well.

 

[Gennaro8]

It will be fantastic to see this team with proper RW, CF and AMF.

Looks like Pioli is ready to choke him. That's worthy of sacking.
