I can see the edge of tomorrow scenario (the movie) happening again and again.

Idiot with no knowledge or money Trying to buy Milan (Li Yonghong)
Used blood seeking hedge fund to get a loan he cannot pay back(Elliot)
Failed to run the Club and loans started to pile up(Li Yonghong)
Elliot take back the club with fraction of the price.
Elliot balance the team and prepare to sell.

Repeat....

I' really surprised at this supposed feud between Maldini and Pioli.

Looking back on Maldini's comments lately, it's actually all there. Especially his comments about how we have had no answer to Inter. At the time, you could take those comments differnt ways. But in retrospect, it was direct criticism of Pioli.

You could only assume that Pioli had a knife to sharpen as well. Probably annoyed of Paolo's criticism given the summer market.

Incredible drama.

The way the muricans go through calcio with zero emotions reminds a lot of what Adolf did during the holocaust.

Hi Totti! You’re a legend? Ciao!
Ciao Daniele
Ciao Paolo
WTF :lol:
You're comparing management deals in a multi million dollar football club to being emotionless at a genocide?

Never change R&B :proud:

Paolo fucked up because of a 0 budget from Redbird.

How does removing a legend in this manner improve anything for the squad? Maybe it will long term, however in the short term it just causes confusion and makes the club and owner look like clowns.

Could've at least came to a mutual termination and released a statement or something
Wasn't long ago when positivity squad was citing we had the highest NET spending without sales last summer :proud:

Milan: -176.19
Inter: -40.58
Napoli: -127.69
Juve: -135.25

Is anyone here actually believing this is a positive move for a club, or those who are arguing against Maldini are just trying to justify Cardinale decision to make them feel better.. I honestly cannot believe that anyone is positive about this. Yes maldini did mistakes but he brought Milan back to glory. We won Scudetto and played CL semis.. this was a success even in early 2000, when we had a dominant team… you cannot ask for more.

I agree with him of course. But it's clear he was battling for a different strategy than the one we will be going with. It was never a sustainable position. That alternative he mentioned a few years ago where we simply coast in the top four, maybe winning a scudetto again, doesn't HAVE to be what we end up doing. But it's much more likely that happens now than us dominating, and being CL contenders.

It depends on what happens this summer of course. If we placate the squad, get Thuram, RLC, Kamada and a couple of exciting players that fit the playstyle then we won't miss a beat. But if we're looking to sell to buy, then it's a huge downgrade to the plan. Lots of unknowns at this point to really understand what will happen, and almost every take is just an assumption. We just have to wait and see.

I'm just really sad we lost Maldini, and especially with the way it happened.

Holy shit. Even Maldini's mother wouldn't be this mad at him getting sacked.

Maldini is milan. It's eternal. He is the epitome of greatness. True one club man. A trailblazer. Legendary player. Greatest defender that ever existed.
Gerry obviously wanted his guys to takeover. Guys whom he trusts I assume. It's a business. Sadly Maldini dint have much to work with. With the limited budget, he probably should have done a lot better but now we are just clutching at straws. Sure, we would have loved to see some reasoning behind his sacking. Could have been dealt with more dignity. Perhaps it's a personal issue. Maldini doesn't hold back and we all know that. In the corporate world, this doesn't fly.
Let's just wish him the best in his future endeavours cause that's all we can do at this stage. He is a multi millionaire and an ethereal figurehead of milan. I am sure he is fine.
In the meantime, Lets wait to hear directly from him and see how it all unfolded.

BTW jokes aside, I don't like Gerry. Not cause he sacked Paolo. He just looks like a shit cunt. I just hope he does something useful for milan.
Build the stadium or invest or atleast make us self sustainable without compromising our position as an elite club that competes for titles.

its mind blowing how people suddenly give credit to moncada for every good signing at the club and out of nowhere blame maldini for the bad ones.
like they think it's maldini's hobby to watch belgium league and he suddenly decided on its own that he wants cdk at milan
Not so mind blowing considering people have been and are still doing that for Maldini :LOL:

"Pioli will have more power in the market."

Lol. I can't fucking wait for this season.

:lol:

I’m sorry but I really really hope things work out and Pioli’s decisión fucking works and he proves all our asses wrong.

I don’t want our club to regress.

Please Pioli, prove me wrong

i wish i could see what this forum will look like end of august, end of september, december and then june.

because if we're winning, maldini will be a distant memory. if we're losing, gerry will be roasted at the stake. gah, i gotta know how this ends.

Maldini “wasted” 50 mil wich is pocket change today aaandddd off goes his head,some people acting here like he had 500 milions to spend and to build a squad and failed
In 3 years from finishing 6th place to scudetto and semifinal of CL and playing CL on regular basis
Great relationship with the star players who are young and can play anywhere for 4x money they have in Milan plusss with salary cap is a great job,having in mind what kind of a mess we were when he arrived
He has moves wich turned out to be very bad
Cdk,Origi etc
But lets hope this sacking doesnt bite us in the ass

sorry you feel this way

ill be fuck Gerry if he can’t deliver us wins

also, you’re welcome to join me at the San Siro for a CL match next season

cheers
Cheers,

It is also good to have people around with different opinion, but in this case I feel like Gerry is really undefendable. The way he kicked out Maldini is wrong on so much level it is really saddening to me

Lets meet at San Siro for CL

Fans are furious at the moment. Cardinale needs to work fast and he needs to work smart. I expect some big moves very soon

One title and a UCL semi doesn't equal back to glory

Maldini was, is and will be icon and legend of Milan but if a job doesn't fit for you...end of story.

Yes exactly. PIOLI needs to get fucking grilled too, and certain players MUST be told to look for a new club (messias, origi, rebic).

*I've realised I've been too harsh on krunic. He could be needed as a rotational/'3rd choice since we always have injured players
Agreed but fuck Krunic too…he’s long overstayed his welcome and is taking valuable playing time away from the likes of Adli. Time for him to be shown the door this summer too.
