Roger Federer is the GOAT
give me one good reason as to why Leao didn't get 1st place outside racismo

Maybe Leao would have won if you didn’t keep voting for Tonali in 2nd or 3rd spot in matches where was he below average because of your agenda against Giroud/Diaz/Bennacer etc :o

;p

We survived after Istanbul, we survived after Maldini's last home game in 2009, we'll survive again

Mods please unban @Curupira, at least wait until the Conference final between Fiorentina/West Ham ends. I’m not gonna let him get away with this.

@joyrider @AC_Wesley @AndreiX do something.

I'm waiting to see what players we're linked to now. If it's true that Gerry was angry about Maldini going after Arnautovic and Berardi, fair enough. But who are we getting instead? Let's see some action.

I don't like San Donato because the stadium would be too close to the highway and i don't see people say " yeah let's go to the highway and lets enjoy the stadium Cinema / Resturants " and i don't see San Donato very attractive to tourists, i think they are going there becuase is the quickest way to have our own stadium but i'm not sure is the best option

🗣️ Giorgio Furlani to #Gazzetta: "Stefano Pioli is gaining importance, both at Milanello, where there won't be figures like Maldini and Massara present on a daily basis, and in the transfer market. He will provide indications on his needs, like any coach, and will have more weight in the choice of profiles, the type of players to target in the market."

Niceee. trust the guy that consistently got dominated by Inter and couldn't qualify for CL without a Juve penalty.

They're setting Pioli up to be the scapegoat if it doesn't workout. Does anyone have any idea if Pioli has any previous history of finding good players?

They can’t have it both ways. They showed they trusted Pioli by giving him an extension and a raise so they need to make sure they’re getting him the players he wants or at least replace the players that left with players of the same level.

They were never going to give him the treatment Klopp and Pep get and nobody is asking for that. Pep and Klopp get 100 million euro players. Pioli, by winning the Scudetto, showed that he deserves to be consulted at least. Bare minimum is to replace the players that he relied on the most who left on a free transfer. Kessie and Hakan were never replaced. Two players he relied on a lot. Instead MM threw the money we “saved” by not extending their contracts on a player that doesn’t fit Pioli’s tactics. Even you admit CDK doesn’t fit Pioli’s tactics. Is he a CF, an AM, a RW? We still don’t know.

Pioli had a winning system. Why should he change his tactics to accommodate players MM got him. It should be the other way around. You get players that can play in our current set up. Don’t fix what’s not broken.
I guess people want to forget about the fact that Pioli and Maldini both mentioned that they were in constant contact about the transfer market, and Pioli saying himself he doesn't need a Kessie replacement because we will be playing different.

Now the rhetoric is "maldini signed players for fun, and didnt ask Pioli"

Memories of goldfish in here.

They've always signed players for Pioli's tactics. Maybe it doesn't seem that way sometimes because those said tactics only apply to about 10 games per season

All these statements about Pioli have me worried they're setting him up as the fall guy in case shit goes badly. I doubt they'll be consulting him more than Maldini has been doing. That's the whole point of a long term strategic approach, you don't change course based on the whims of the current coach. The whole narrative of 'Pioli is now in the inner circle and will be part of the process' seems odd. Nobody is really asking for this, are they? It's not something that can placate fans for how they treated Maldini.

"First of all, I want to thank Paolo and Ricky and express the gratitude of all Milan collaborators for their significant contribution to the Club over the years. Paolo was among the greatest players ever and as manager, together with Ricky, he played an important role in achieving our 19th championship. We are sorry to see them go. In our club we constantly analyze the most suitable strategies and models to ensure that Milan can continue to progress on and off the pitch, to compete with the leading teams in Europe. The first fundamental element, I always repeat it is, and will remain, football. Precisely with this objective in mind, we have decided on an organizational reorganization which leads to the creation of a working group for the technical/sporting part. Our priority now is to consolidate and reinforce the progress made over the last few years, across all parts of the club. Our ambition hasn't changed, on the contrary it has strengthened: to be competitive at the top of European football. We are on the right track, but there is still a lot of work to do. I hope that our wonderful fans can keep their support for the club intact and constant, and I personally hope to be able to interact with our fans soon, so that they can understand our strategy, to continue together to see Milan grow".

Not sure what you're really getting at here, if Paolo signed players without the consultation of Pioli last year and Furlani deems that a mistake, it makes sense to have a more integrated approach.

I don't think they're "setting Pioli up" for anything other than to do as well as humanly possible. With the swiftness they axed our number one legend yesterday, I can't for a moment fathom why they'd stick with Pioli if they don't think he's good enough given the right tools.

If Pioli fails to deliver he will be replaced, but I don't think there's any plan in place meant to sabotage him.
