Fuck UEFA
If I was Paolo I would've been mad too. 35m? Seriously? That wouldn't cover a bench striker in today's market.

Cheap bitch

"Maintenance" would be an upgrade over the last 2 mercatos

What's the downgrade? The path the club was heading down would have resulted in Arnautovic, Berardi, and Brahim if Perez wasn't looking out for the club

I'm not expecting any serious investment but the club is far from when Maldini took over, something has gone wrong
I was expecting RLC, Kamada, Thuram at least. Depending on sales I was expecting someone like Sergej too, or a top level RW. We're due an upgrade to take us into phase 2.

There are far too many to name past & present
I’m now starting to believe that Pioli sabotaged the likes of Adli and Vranckx just to prove a point to owners that Maldini was bringing in players without consulting him
Of course he did. It's happened plenty of times before Mourinho is a master at it.

Between the ginger stepchild treatment that Adli got and the fact that it took him till the Napoli away game to try Diaz (who was a winger at Citeh and Real) to actually play on the wing.

Hold on, so you BELIEVE repubblica over Sky and Longo?

And not only do you believe that, you then also believe that the 35M budget was going to spent on Diaz, Arnautovic and RLC by Maldini?

Man, pick your side here.... I don't even know what the argument is anymore

stop it,it means everything,same bullshit story every year.
last year then told budget is around 45-50
guess what we spended 51 mil
35 million + sales is a lot

We can easily sell 50m of players

That can get us 2-3 free transfers and 3-4 other top players

We don’t need a 150m+ sales mercato

but you can't say his goal is to make money, if he sells every important asset for kids.
the product will have no value.

listen, EVERY big football club sells good/top players. They buy them as well. It's cyclical. Name me ONE top club that doesn't sell big name players.... The answer is US. We're the only morons that generate no revenue from sales.

If gerry wants to make money from his investment, he needs us to be competitive, always. he needs a cycle of good/very good players coming in and out. That's how every football club (bar us) has been run for the last decade
Agree on some parts,like rm and perez know how to sell but damn they spend on top top prospects all fucking time.
this redshit wont do that ,yes he will try to replace selling players but just for minimum goal and that is 4th place.

RLC, SMS, Kamada, Thuram

That probably costs us 50m in total

Easily doable with 35m + sales

It’s not a bad budget honestly. We just need to be creative and sell high value guys like CDK

because perez wasn't like silvio and didnt leave his club for dead during the most important transition period in footballing history.
silvio is the reason we're a massive club, and also the reason we're so far behind today.
we'd be right there with madrid is silvio didnt walk away to let galliani die in the public eye

Repubblica getting SHIT ON over on twitter.

Apparently 2 weeks ago our budget (per THEM) was around 80M. Last week, down to 50M, and now post maldini, it's 35M

Stop listening to shit sources, please.

again same story every year,for God sake we spended 50 mil last summer and in january when we didnt had proper GK(almost lost CL couse off that) we spended 0 eur.
50 mil is not that bad compared to our rivals in Serie A when you also compare revenue. You want a sugar daddy to get us in more trouble with FFP? We spent 50 mil, so far only the 8 mill on Thiaw was worth it. Last year's summer market could also have been a flop with 75 mill spent.

Cheap bitch
Easy buy free transfers. So many available. Need to be smart

Marcus thuram get him now before psg comes for him
Get rabiot for free. If too much then get tielemans
Get rlc for cheap
Get sms as the main big signing.
Only issue is we can't now reinforce the striker department unless we sell further.

So the budget went from 100 to 70 to 50 to 35 lol....only with Milan.

I don't know whats worse, being a milan fan or a crack addict.

What is THE WORST is believing every single negative news on twitter.

Who do you want to sell to get 50 million?

Rebic Messias Ballo Toure Origi thats 30m there. As Pioli isnt going to use Adli or try and make CDK functional theyll have to go so that's another 30-35m. And Id sell Saelemaekers tbh.

I know people want to sell Krunic but he's useful in small run of games. Also as Pioli is staying I doubt he wants to lose him

Exactly. Just no enough smart people in management.

We do need one big money striker though. Cmon Gerry.

Real are doing a high end version of what Atalanta and Brighton are doing. Only difference being Real get to keep them when they start performing consistently.

Wait, so has Pioli or Moncada got more powers now, I'm confused after reading various reports.

And everyone is answering to Furlani and a think-tank kinda thingy?

Someone definitely for the sword as soon as tings go tits up lol...

Look Milan will move forward, and fuck I'd love to see us strengthen in the summer, win star 2 next year. Maldini is an absolute legend but legends do leave, this whole situation stinks though, and Gerry is a fucking snake.

It feels like he's pulling together snakes and yes men, to further his vision for Milan.

Maldini evidently didn't share the vision, and I'm yet to see plans for the vision... From where I'm standing though I'm not liking what I'm seeing or hearing.

This isn't over by a long shot... A culture that is alien to what was looks to be being nurtured.

I come from a fucking shit part of Scotland, I grew up where dogs ate dogs. I ate and was eaten, I'm still here, but most of all I learnt, but I have a moral compass. I can fight and pick fights, this whole situation isn't a good one.

It could literally start a civil war in our club... Get your popcorn and weapons kids!

Fuck Gerry!!!

there's no point kicking out Pioli now.
No top coach will take this job if he know our budget is 35M

Don't tell me we believe Repubblica now. These guys are one of the worst sources. I wouldn't even call them a source, but I don't know what word to use. They are literally making stuff up. Right now they know it is turbulent period and just squeeze it for likes and sales of their shit paper. How would a paper from Rome have such inside info about Milan? They had zero idea that Maldini was going to be sacked which is MAJOR news in the football world. But now, all of a sudden, they know all about Milan, including what our top executive said to no more than 2-3 people.

Stop stressing over everything you read. The meltdown should happen in mid-August if the mercato is not good. Right now, it is just pointless to even discuss.

For what it’s worth, Diaz non resta was immediately confirmed after this statement
Diaz non resta was done long before this statement, as evident by Theo's farewell message to Diaz, on his shirt after the Hellas game, so Diaz leaving was a Maldini decision.

The young players also dont have the pressure to perform immediately either. They usually come in as backups for the senior star players and are slowly bedded in.

Vinicius and Rodrygo are prime examples of this.

Whereas Milan youth strategy seems to be buy a bunch of them and throw them to the dogs expecting performances immediately.
