So kamada sucks then?
Hope we bail
Nah mate, it's a bunch of small minded people trying to take specific statistics from a small pool of data to spin a narrative that he sucks.
We saw plenty of people say the same thing about Thiaw based on that one game that he played for Shalke against Union Berlin where they lost 6-1.

Data can always be manipulated to spin whatever narrative that they want.

Some rumors that staff at Milan store are advising against printing shirts with Leao 17 or Theo 19. I can understand Leao, probably getting the 10, 11 or 7. But Theo? Will Maldini give him the 3?
This report makes zero sense

On second thoughts, this is probably true.



Carlo was begging for Madrid to sign Leao. I’m sure Leao felt honored that a manager like Carlo wants him and that made him very happy and honored. It gave him to motivation to keep to improving to receive praise and compliments like this.

So yeah, now that you mentioned it, I attribute Leao’s improvement to Carlo Ancelotti. Thanks for the idea Wild.

We are pretty safe. No chance they pay 175 m for a LW when they have Vini.

Yeah we are. This article was last year when Leao still didn’t extend

Yes, you can progress the ball only if you have world class players. Teams will no such players just stay in their box :lol:
I am not saying pioli is the goat coach. Do we have better options available? If so, who is it?

Leao is better than vini.
Vini feels like a system player.

Good to know. 'Smart players'. That's what we need apparently. As long as he fits in that group, he is welcome here.

I don't watch other leagues, so I am not the person the reply to this question. But it's a fact that we play ugly and slow football. You can't find many coaches that will make the team perform worse.

I think those are his two most viable options. Either be the face of the Raiola agency, or become a director at Milan.
Just give him a management position. You don't need an mba to be part of the management. Plenty of dumb investment bankers out there with mbas Lel.

I don’t mind Ibra staying and taking a management role but if I’m being honest I’d like him to be a coach. I think he has all the tools in the making to be an elite coach and I would love it if he could one day coach us.

I hope that’s a career path he takes charge in. Of course I’d prefer if he forged his paths first and build his coaching career before coaching us but as I said I want him to try to do that.

With that said, and I hope I’m wrong, he’ll replace Raiola and be an agent.

I’m as far away from being a Saelemakers fan as possible but for me its very strange that in a season where he is showing major improvements he suddenly was benched again for Messias who have never offered anything. Was clear last night too.

Buy a RW, rotate Saele & sell the bum Messias.
fuck him,that kid is shittttt as banter era shit.

just look at final when he dribbled one player and leao + oli were aloneeee in box he just had to pass ball like 3 m but he managed to pass to verona player.
he is fucking girl in girl body with someparts off boy.
i think messiass is 5 x player saleshit is.

He was playing wider yesterday so it’s not really a surprise. The kid is obviously talented and it’s mental with him. He was pressing well yesterday and had some attempts.

As a winger or a false 9 I think he has potential to do well.

Issue is that Pioli mismanaged him and he’s not mentally strong.

I hope Pioli can manage him better next season and it’s not like Pioli’s is the worst guy in terms of this either, he played a big part in making Leao explode and Tonali also did under him. I can see Charles doing well even under him even though I think a better coach would hone his skills even better.

With that said Leao and Tonali were never really playing out of position so with Charles it might a bit more difficult, Pioli doesn’t seem to realise CAM ain’t his spot yet

Yeah, because that's exactly what Carlo Ancelotti is known for. Being a system coach.

I honestly think Leao is better.

Vinicius is incredible don’t get me wrong but he has a much better supporting cast. Benzema, Rodyrgo and a solid midfield behind him.

Leao does have Theo who is miles better than whichever LB they play, either Mendy/Nacho or even Camavinga I suppose but still I can’t underestimate the influence Benzema has on Vini to make him flourish. Leao could do that with an elite CF.

I’m not even talking about about a fast CF like Osimhen but a CF like Ibra of 2020 or Harry Kane types. Those types would elevate his numbers considerably

I also think Carlo is much better than Pioli in getting the best out of his attackers. I’d imagine Ancelotti having an even better effect on Leao

I’ll miss the vibes he brought. He’s a likeable lad.

With that said, he’s a limited player and I don’t see how he can be a good fit to Madrid.

If Carlo can somehow make him explode, please just make the GOAT statue to him in front of his house once and for all.

I don’t even blame Pioli for not making him elite, diaz is just that limited

"Working" from home today. Fuck work, if anyone needs me, I'll be rewatching the Ibra farewell another 100 times until I've tortured myself often enough.
I'm so not over last night, damn not even Ibra could handle it, that shows you how much it meant and how emotional it was.
I'm so proud of being a Milanista, these emotions of winning and losing make life more meaningful.

We are a special club. Maybe it went missing for a few years, but it's not the success that makes me adore this club.
Even the toughest players shed tears when they no longer wear the red and black. If you've been here for as long as Gattuso or Zlatan or a year like Van Bommel..

For the role Real are taking him, Brahim could do well. A spark plug in the last 20min. He brings the energy needed to change the game. Considering they get him for free its a solid deal for them.

What he is not is a leader in a world class team. He does not have the quality nor the consistency for that level.

We really need an upgrade over Calabria. He is terrible in difense and on offense, did you see his shot that ended for a throw in? Terrible

The Van Bommel tears really said all you need to know about our club.
