Man Madrid paying 35 million to Lyon for Benz was a crazy deal. What an amazing career, we never hit like that in attack since kaka

Agree

But just like how you like to say Maldini handpicked GP - well GP crafted Suso AM
GP had no say on the players, we agree on that, so he definitely was doing what he could with what he had (and doing so poorly).

But Maldini did have a say in selection of managers. He openly questioned Rangnick, though you can say that he felt it might affect his position. But he said this openly when it was clear we were in negotiations with Rangnick:
Having never talked to Rangnick, I don’t understand on what basis his statements are based, also because I have never been told anything by the owner.

So I would have some advice for him, before learning Italian he should review the general concepts of respect, as there are colleagues who, despite the many difficulties of the moment, are trying to finish the season in a very professional way, putting the good of Milan to their professional pride.
I didn't see these type of quotes on Giampaolo, you can say he signed on late but he was already working within the organization and knew that he was getting promoted. In fact there were reports he was on board with GP, some sources reported he was our first choice. He also backed him repeatedly even after a poor preseason and shit was starting to unravel. There were even reported rumors of him and Boban having tension over Giampaolo.

So I don't quite agree with that analogy.

I think we need two midfielders, a FB ( Florenzi will be gone) two CB or one if they promote Simic ( Kjaer and Gabbia will be gone ) and two CF ( one if they keep Giroud ) i would not keep Giroud but i'm afraid we don't have enough money to buy two

What is the profile of the two midfielders you listed? I think Terraciano can replace Florenzi if he leaves. If we get Buongiorno for a good deal then we are set at CB, I think Pellegrino might be loaned out.

About CF, it depends on how we will look like next season but one top quality option would be more than fine. I would honestly try my best to lure Napoli into selling us Osimhen, I mean, with him you become a CL contender. I would fund it by selling players for +25% over their market value. So 50m for Bennacer I would accept (unless he wants to stay ofc), Kalulu for +40m , Leao for +120m .. the only players I would try to really avoid selling are probably Theo and Mike because they are so unique and their leadership qualities.

Out for a walk.
Definitely a lot of balds in there, you're right. I can't judge too heavily, though, because I'll be joining the fraudsters here soon.

Agent Jorge Mendes has offered Jose Mourinho to Napoli president Aurelio de Laurentiis.

Sportmediaset says just hours after Mourinho's dismissal, his agent Mendes was on the phone to De Laurentiis to raise the prospect of the Special One moving to the Maradona this summer.

ADL didn't dismiss the idea, but explained he was totally focused on the January market and won't considering Napoli's coaching position until next month at the earliest.

Walter Mazzarri is tied to Napoli until June and ADL is happy to stick with the veteran coach until then.

The one stumbling block to Mourinho landing in Naples is his €7m-a-year wage demands - which De Laurentiis would be unprepared to match.

AC Milan rejected the chance to sign Enzo Fernandez for €12m only 18 months ago, it has been revealed.

Fernandez is a year into his €121m move from Benfica to Chelsea.

However, only months previous - April 2022 - Fernandez was offered to Milan for €12m, but the board deemed the price too steep, says TMW.

Instead, he remained with Benfica before eventually making a big money transfer to the Premier League.

Enzo turns 23 years of age today.
board! not Paolo.

We all know that it is more than doubtful that Enzo would have made the same progress with us as he did at Benfica.

At Benfica he was allowed to play, with us Krunic would have played first... and Pobega, and Bakayoko.

By the way, when Enzo went to Benfica, it wasn't even clear whether Maldini and Massara would stay on. The two fools were still negotiating their own contracts.

Krunic only got to play after the desired duo repeatedly failed and Pobega was used further forward mostly in the early months. Bakayoko never played.
- I dont think Enzo wouldve automatically started but I dont see him going the way of Vranckx either.

Missing on the player is much worse than trying to "fox and grapes" the situation saying he wouldnt have played or made it here.

There was a larger audience at the provincial tournament held in Brianza last week. What a bad figure, what a terrible end.

Pioli is a complicated man. He went from not playing Vranckx and Adli due to not being defensively tidy all the way to doing away with a real DM altogether
