The Rumour Commode XLVI: Jetski for Prick edition

And some were very vocal that the American big business model was what this old football club needed!!!

It is for the financial savvy and revenue growth. Stadium construction to get past all the red tape, they were needed for sure.

Not so much for the sporting side.

These dumb Muricans don't correlate Europe's footballing fans spending with their clubs performances.

They expect it to be like the Murican football market, where nobody gets relegated for poor results and fans will go pay up regardless because poor teams get help by placing high up in a collective draft for talents every single year. Tanking your team in the US for a couple of years actually helps to acquire high level talent to rebuild your team into something decent with (and even that is hit or miss).

These fuckers need to understand that tanking your team here in Europe means a fall from grace and into obscurity. Clubs with storied history like Il Grande Torino are a shadow of their former selves because they couldn't keep up investing and developing their team and their fanbase got stolen by the richer, more investment inclined club in Ladri.

Seriously how the fuck has Zlatan not brought this to Gerrys attention? That should be what he's being paid for, not to go play with the Hot Ones cast.

If this is true then Ibra need to fuck off asap.
Never liked his personality.

Yes bro but lions

Aspects of it are absolutely what we need

It was indeed an American fund that revived us

No need to throw out the baby with the bath water

You need to shut up or stump up £1.6 billion or something bro x



And hoping Ibra knows anything is cute...

 

[MilanMB]

And it’s crazy how you guys didn’t see Fonseca benching Leao and theo in match day 3 as a huge red flag.

Imagine losing the Locker room this early in the season. A weak hoe

The fact that he played them right away wad the red flag for me. He should have kept them on the bench imo.

Congrats if we get sarri, you've been asking for him for many years.

Totally, balance and some sympathy were needed... Not this ham fisted attempt at redesigning the game.

I fully understand modernization in business, but am more aware that certain businesses are about people. People make people in lots of industries.

Milan is a sleeping giant, with history and passion. Simply deleting anything or anyone associated with the club was and is idiotic.

And one more lesson for a club with limited resources like ours: If we know we are on the right track, just stay on that track at all costs. Kessie wants 7 or 8 million? Just give it to him. Newcastle paid 80 million for Tonali? I’m not saying it was a bad deal. It was a fantastic deal because now we already know all about his problems, but that’s in hindsight. At that point, just refuse the 80 million and keep Tonali at all costs. What I mean is, if we know the path we’re on is the right one for us, just stay on it at all costs. Don’t sack Maldini, don’t sell our core players, and don’t stir things up if we don’t know what to do, how to replace them. It’s much better to do that than make all the fuss and then spending hundreds of millions somewhere on a bunch of mediocre players, like Chuk, for example, to fix things up only to end up being a mess like we are at the moment.

 

[MilanMB]

I really can’t do this Maldini song and dance anymore. Nothing against you.

In an ideal world of my making, he is here with more experience and is allowed to fail a bit, reins in a bit of his gossip column writing in the media, and works in a proper structure. Maldini was neither the cause nor the solution to all our problems. If we saw him that way, then that’s a telltale sign of how screwed we’re on the whole.

It’s unfair on him as well. He’s no Marotta, who can shield a club from the collapsing scenery around it.

After Elliott it has been a shitshow, and there is enough blame to go around. Right now, things seem exceptionally bad because Ibra is out of his depth and we don’t have a proper SD. To fix these issues require our ownership to fix the structure in place. Putting Maldini in this structure would make him look really bad as well.

Our problems are intractable. I wish ardently it was as easy as appointing Maldini to fix them.

I can do Maldini song and dance all day

But you're correct without knowing it. This isn't about Maldini the person. It's what he represents.

IMO Milan's biggest issue is that we don't know what we are any longer. We don't stand for anything. Have have lost the connection to our roots, and the Milan culture we all knew and feel in love with is not there anymore. I wouldn't have become a fan of the club if it was the club choosing day of my life today. There's no mystique, no elegance, no class no nothing. Honestly do you even feel that we're a seven time CL winner? I know don't.

We're starting to become something new, something that I don't recognize and feel distanced to. Normally in life I love fast change, to try new stuff and so on. But regarding football it's best to be conservative and stand by your values. We've become some plastic mess that throws shit on the wall to see if it sticks. That's not Milan to me.

This is were Maldini comes into the picture for me. I agree that he made mistakes (which SD doesn't?), but more than anyone in this world he is the guardian of the Milan values. We need our values back not some tik tok rapper and bunch of other unworthy twats embarrassing this fine institution every week.

Fucking IBRAHIMOVIC is our senior advisor. Does he represents Milan values to anyone? That's how far we've fallen.

 

[ZBoban]

The scudetto year I remember thinking we had the best midfield in Italy by a far margin. I swear we now have the worse one. Just elite squad building right there.

The day Gerry took over the club Maldini was on the clock? Why because Gerry never hired him in the first place. Yes he gave him a contract but his first move taking over the club he isnt bombing out the club idol. Its a waiting game of impress me or fuck up first. If Maldini had a body of work beyond one scudetto he might of survived longer.

Maldini was already on a crash course with the rest of the management. If we wouldn't have fired him that would have escalated anyway.
Maldini got into too strong a position for that to keep simmering.
And he didn't only clash with questionable people like Scaroni but also with high quality professionals like Gazidis

 

[Wild]

Sarr
All
Tuch
Ter/Tud

 

[milanator]

Tuchel would be horrible, instant crisis with all his Chelsea victims.

Tudor on 9 months is a different animal compared to Tudor on 3 years. Imo as a caretaker he would make sense if he is ok with playing his pressing system with 4atb.

However at this point it is not really necessary to go for a caretaker.

 

[Maxer44]

I approve.

There's always new ways to be bad,might as well try them out.

 

[sheva]

Can somebody publicly call Ibra a clown on TV? Show some balls

boban did a couple of days ago

 

[Wild]

Plz god give me Sarr & delay his heart attack waitting to happen.

I think RLC is the only one who likes Tuchel as he played him a lot. Tammy hates him and by proxy Tomori hates him too. Pulisic probably hand in a transfer request not this fucker for a 3rd time.

So its gonna be Tuch

Nah mate. I'm not saying they don't have their uses. Building up revenues so that next summer we can spend 30M per player instead of 20M has it's merits.

Ultimately someone needs to educate them on how European clubs are run. Paolo, Ricky and Zvonomir did that for Elliot, and Elliot was at least receptive to that.

Someone grab JLo to talk Gerry's ear off. She at least has a modicum of knowledge about European football supporting Real Madrid.

 

[CanUNoTouch]

So its gonna be Tuch

Tuchels track record of taking over in season the 2 times he's done it is 1 CL and 1 League Title.

Tuchel has also fell out with upper management at every club he's been at.

Tuchel probably better suited to those Europa League level clubs. Where he gets to have more control than he would at the elite clubs which are too political for him. He's kinda like Emery in that regard.

 

[Ryo]

So its gonna be Tuch

I thought RLC played his best football under Sarri?

 

[CanUNoTouch]

I thought RLC played his best football under Sarri?

He did. Tuchel played RLC in loads of different positions. 46 games 1 goals.

Sarri played him in CM majority of the time. 40 games 10 goals

 

[Wild]

Our plan should be to wait for @brk to embrace a coach & instantly hire another.

 

[BrianAC]

Man, this loser still has braindamage when Ibra knocked him out. Nobody who loves this club should listen to this piece of shit

I agree reinstating Maldini won't solve everything. However, just pointing out the fact that these problems did not exist when he and Masarra were at the helm.

 

[The Cat]

Sarri or allegri are logical. Either one of them id be happy with. Leaning more towards sarri

 

[Dena]

Who is tudor????

It's not Tudor, it's a Tumor.

 

[Wild]

All to be honest isnt a bad choice becuase his defensive tactic suit our pacy players.

 

[Wild]

Who wouldnt want that passion for our relaxed team?
