Roger Federer is the GOAT
I'm really hurt about Paolo, but damn scrolling through the pages here makes me laugh so much.
Can't believe how grown ups can have such meltdowns, holy shit!

There isn't even anything official yet. Where/Who is team optimistic/positive? Please let me in, I don't want to drown in the negativity here.

It’s official.

You know what to know what’s next?

Saudi are gonna sign Olivier Giroud. It’s time to weep

He got on the mic and talked shit on red bird. Multiple times. Don’t you recall? Failure

also, results in the league were shitty and we shouldn’t have earned the CL spot… failure

the market, even outside of CDK was shitty. Failure

Laughable.
Okay we will talk next summer.
But put it out there now then - if the new management do not deliver us either of these:

1) CL semi final and 2nd place
2) Scudetto and CL Quarter Final

Then they deserve the sack in your mind, yeah?

Genny, don't treat me like some negativity force goon. You know I do my research.

If Redbird wins, I'll be the happiest man alive.

But I do not agree with this approach.
The bitch is negatively force
Anyone who is supporting this decision is

Its crazy how he never criticized maldini, but suddenly he posting about all the wrong things maldini did.

You cannot take people like that serious

I won't be surprised if RedShit sell Leao and Mike now. With Maldini you at least expected some romance. It just makes too much fiscal sense to sell them if you really don't care about football/the club's sporting success

There are many many clubs that would happily overpay for both.
Wouldn't be surprised if it turns out this was Elliott plan all along. Install Gerry as a fall guy and make him sell every player worth anything.
All of them only care about getting money out of this. Gerry doesn't give a fuck about what the fans think of him. It's all just another investment to these people

It absolutely does not make sense to sell those two

Everyone else yes

but without those two this team free falls from top 4
He can get so many super talents with that money and still pocket a hefty sum. Build the team around Theo and pocket the rest 🤷🏽‍♂️

First part

you would let an employee publicly criticize you repeatedly after stumbling your way to an asterisk ridden top 4 spot?

if it wasn’t Maldini, you would boot them out quickly.

What I expected Is a strong showing for 2nd place outright and we should have reached the CL final. We were played off the pitch and that was due to how the team was constructed along with Pioli’s tactics. I was there. Someone was going down for that shit show of a match

I don’t know what to tell you if you disagree with the 1st part. if the name wasn’t maldini, it’s 100% sack 100% of the time
Depending on the who the employee is...I might.

Agreed but I think the modus operandi going forward will be a 50m mercato budget coupled with the sale of fodders like Messias, Gabbia, Rebic + Origi for 20m combined AND the occasional top player for crazy money e.g. Leao + Theo.

In other words, Moncada's got plenty to work with especially if he keeps scouting the occasional low cost gems like Enzo, Kalulu, Maignan, Muani, Thiaw etc.
I don't see a reason why we would sell a top player. We are actually running a profit of like 15-20 m which is crazy considering the lack of own stadium, the pathetic TV rights in Italy and the non-existent sales. And we are about to free up some massive wages: Dest 6 m :lol:, Origi 5 m :lol:, Bakayoko 4.6 m :lol:, Rebic 4.5 m, Ibra 2 m, Brahim 2 m, Vranckx 2 m and probably a few more in Salad/Messias or Kjaer or Florenzi. This is like 30% of our whole wage bill.
If Moncada finds the right 3 players (CF, RW and CM) and they slot in perfectly right away, we can destroy Serie A even if it's not the primary intention of the owners.

Every single thing bald nazi isn't.

Easy buy.
Don't even need to go that far.
Italian talent = automatically shit unless it's some really talented midfielder like veratti tonali barella

For attacking positions and even defence they are awful talents.

I dont know about baldzani. Some are saying he is good but I just don't see italians having a good record in producing wingers.

I wanted to go and watch us play live. With my family, we had plans to travel either last autumn or this spring. Unfortunately, my health condition didn't allow it. I had an inflammation in my eye for more than 1 year, making either my right, left or both eyes in inflammation. My vision was bad, so we cancelled the trips. I fully recovered 2 months ago, and we decided to visit a match next autumn.

I don't know what to say. I am devastated that I couldn't watch the Maldini team live. It was honestly my best period as a Milan fan. Last years scudetto even felt better than the 2007 UCL, because as a child, I didn't value it as much as I would value it now. Even when I sounded negative, deep inside I was still hopeful, as I was sure that we are in the right direction.

Fuck you Gerry Cardinale. Burn in hell. You crashed my dream. You crashed millions of lifelong, diehard Milanista souls.

How can you fire Maldini in a couple of minutes?? After all that he has done to our club. For fucks sake, he was recognized internationally as one of the best SDs currently. He was competent at his job.

MM,
Kalulu, Thiaw, Tomori, Theo, Kjaer
Bennacer, Tonali,
Leao, Ibra, Giroud

They were all masterpiece signings!!

Krunic, Diaz, Salad, Messias.

Their contribution while not on the level as the players before, but for the money spent, they are good cost to quality ratio signings. Diaz payed for his whole 3 year tenure with the Spurs goal. Same can be sad for Messias and that Atletico goal.

It is not like if Maldini had 150mil budget, he would go into a season with Salad and Messias as RW. These players are a consequence of having a peanut budget.

Purely on a business perspective, his work is a great 8/10. But the added value of this being achieved by our greatest player of all time, a person who was there for the squad, who was respected and beloved by everybody easily elevates it to a 9/10.

Fuck you Gerry Cardinale.
I honestly rate Maldini's work a solid 8/10. Yes, he made some mistakes. Everyone knows the story of Baka, Dest, Meite, FBT, Origi,
Don’t worry it will be alright, end of day health is most important so look at the bigger picture , glad you are better.

You are all aware that by 31 august:
- mostly from the commode will give a 6/10 grade to summer mercato
- have a fresh list of player for the winter mercato
- player(s) which agreed personal terms with Milan but end up in Mid table EPL due to a "few" million euros offer difference
- maybe 0.2% of rumored/discussed new players will be signed
- 5% chance of guessing which player(s) MM had in plan to sign
- 100% transfer coming from the nowhere, I mean for the 1st team (not primavera or other junior segment)
- transfer budget nowhere the sum mentioned these days
- lots of Maldini doing drugs on Ibiza instead of signing new players
- complains about current players contract extension
- "Gerry is poor" mentioned by > 100.000 times
- complains about "this XY player adds nothing to the team"
- hoping Benna will get better sooner than expected
- lots of comments with transfers ( good or bad) which are totally not related to Milan
- One of our problematic field sides remains in "fine as we are"

All will end with re-naming the commode and hope to finished 2nd in the UCL group
this one confirmed sooner than expected :lol:

Exactly smart sales. That's all.

Free transfers is fine. Just pick the correct players that fit the system.

Okay you Gerry stans still blabbering about we will all forget about this incident if we start winning next season. Yes you are right. 100%. But what are the evidences of us playing better next season, let alone win titles. Players are confused, staffs are confused, same shit coach etc..? All I can see is a mini crisis inside the club and a incompetent owner without any football knowledge in charge. How you guys convince me this is a good decision for Milan?

He can get so many super talents with that money and still pocket a hefty sum. Build the team around Theo and pocket the rest 🤷🏽‍♂️
I could almost see Theo going for more money than Leao this summer.
Most clubs capable of paying huge figures are pretty settled at LW

They have to be good enough for top 4 at a minimum

Mike I can see going maybe but Leao no shot, they just paid his fine and renewed him for 5 years

Guys and girls. All good the commode is alive and kicking it.

But do not forget to do your job/study.

More things important in life than calcio.

Just log off and catch up during the evening or something. Have a tea moment.
Well said.

Speaking on Bobo TV , Antonio Cassano spoke thus of Paolo Maldini 's probable farewell to Milan : "Maldini has done an extraordinary job at Milan, while this Cardinal reminds me of Pallotta from Rome, he only takes pictures and drama while Maldini should be kissed where "He walks. As always, these Americans arrive without understanding anything about football. I hope for Paolo that he can send them to shit and start over elsewhere, if he's not happy it's right that he goes away and that they stick with it."
