Matteo Moretto just RT'd his Theo to Al-Hilal tweet from a few days ago, in which he said Inzaghi was trying hard to lure him...

I assume he's gonna drop an update soon. And likely positive.

People finally seeing Mike and Theo for who they really are.

Love to see it.

Lmao you lot really have it out. Mike and Theo stay oh these bums are staying. Mike and Theo leaving equals ungrateful bastards. Tiji leaving bless he is making sacrifice, kudos for ambition in his career. Pick a lane.

It was shockingly decisive. Totally unlike what we’ve been used to.
I honestly didnt expect it.
Not after i heard that Napoli, Juve & Inter are after him.
Not as swiftly & for sure nit for that salary.
I would say this is Tare & he has full power.

My lane is very clear. Theo and Mike are both unprofessional, and completely undeserving of the wages they're asking.

The only thing I'll give them credit for, if they leave, is not leaving on a free.

I'd agree, the chances aren't great

Considering the shit position they are in, I don't think its the worst gamble, he obviously had a very successful time as a player there and should command respect as a result, and more importantly, his results as the coach of their primavera was excellent.

I can't speak to the talent level that he was working with, but I do think that success is worth something

And like us last summer, I would have rather gambled by promoting Abate than hiring a known dud like Fonesca. Good chance it wouldn't have worked, but I prefer the unknown that has showed promise coaching the youth team over known mediocrities, which is basically the situation they're in now
How come it's not the worst gamble? There are literally "safer" options out there in Palladino etc

Yes, still unproven coaches but was more established than Chivu

Don't get me wrong, I'm happy they got him, hopefully they start slipping into banter era again

Bro I logged into this stupid fucking forum at work just to upvote this. I’m also pooping, like the one guy a couple pages ago.

In other news, I think GK SMS is better than Svillar, but both are fine. No to Carnasexy or however you spell that transvestite looking ass guy at Atlanta.
Too easy of a choice especially if we’re raising funds from selling so many guys

Also talking about how Allegri came here and came quickly despite other major clubs interest. There’s obviously something here that interested Max. We’re selling a lot and Tare+Max gonna have their picks to start a new base

Strange to see inzaghi not asking for the best lb in the galaxy, Di Marco Nuno Mendes
He knows he can't afford him.
So he's going for second best in the galaxy, Theo Hernandez. :taphead:

Sure, but "not the worst gamble" in no way means "there aren't better options out there"

Would Palladino have been a better option? Absolutely imo, and he's not the only one.

But I say its not the worst because there is a logic to the hire that makes the risk more reasonable- he was really good at their Primavera manager, so he has experience with their young players, and management knows what its like dealing with him and what they're getting behind the scenes.

Contrast that with Viera, who was also rumored to be in the running- what's he done in his career managing? Got ok results in MLS (team improved after he left) middling results in the EPL and Ligue 1, and did a nice job turning around Genoa last season. Nothing in that screams safe bet. I'd argue its riskier in a lot of ways because they haven't seen him behind the scenes and we have no idea what he can do with a better roster than he's had. Could work, could be a bum.

I probably have a legit claim that WNT has been won. Lock the thread.

Not just Mike

Tomori, Origi, Theo, Chuk etc. all of them same bullshit

Morata was the rare actual professional who realized the club didn't want him and moved on without dragging his feet. bless him


His plaguing injuries probably have something to do with professionalism

also publicly nuking your club's transfer leverage is pretty unprofessional too
Tare and Allegri want to keep Mike, so if the new sheriffs in town, who are purging everyone, why do they want to keep Mike if he's this insubordinate drain?

The injuries are only on Mike, not the systematic issue that existed under Pioli, that was never rectified.

Putting Mike in the same category as Origi and Chuk is a reach, but I find the absence of our inexperienced and chronically unprofessional management as a non-factor to your ire puzzling.

They couldn't even fire Fonseca properly, while Ibra bragged about being the boss to everyone looking like a clown--a management with no organizational structure that required the CEO to bring lawyers to a meeting with the owner. This is the den of professionalism that is being wronged?

Morata is the one who just talked about how he saw things at Milan he's never seen before, that Morata?

The dysfunction in this team apparently could have been avoided by playing Terraciano at LB and Sportiello at keeper, that's the difference between 8th and 4th, apparently.

So much professionalism, when you get relegated, with the highest budget, you keep your job.

Abate, meanwhile? Fired because of Ibra's personal vendetta against him, plus he fired Ignazio's dad, a long-time youth keeper coach.

Serie D is an amateurs league, so it makes sense to put an amateur in charge of Futuro too, no?

Patheticness of the shitty club called AC Milan explained


R9: Came in to rotate in the league, allowed us to rest players to keep us fresh for UCL finals in Athens. Shame they didn't have the mid-season rule back then, he would've won that UCL with us.

D'inho: Won a Scudetto with us.

Becks: Shame about his Achilles tendon, would have won a Scudetto with us if he had done a 3rd loan stint (or moved here permanently like he wanted to before the injury).

Modric:

I have fond memories of Beckham and Ronaldinho tho, and Van Bommel, Zlatan and Kjaer where instrumental for our Scudetto wins.
Beckham was a great player to watch, I think his actual play has been underrated.

Ronaldinho was so fun to watch, R9 was still good, and I think he was crucial to us winning the CL in 2007 by playing in Serie A and keeping us afloat there. Without injuries (at least the ones with us) he could have continued being truly elite.

I loved when he raised his hands to his ears after scoring against Inter.

Don't worry Sam, we were told ruling with a ruthless iron fist is just what this club needs

Have no clue why Cambiaso is talked about so much. He is as much average, as average gets. Sure, get him. But I fail to see how this guy is worth more than Kalulu for example....yet some of the figures mentioned for him are as much as 40m. How the fuk??? I'd argue Kalulu should he valued higher actually, and Juventus got him for 20 (at most)
My friend who’s a die hard Juve fan says that Cambiaso is world class, but that he won’t come to Milan because teams dreams want him

Vlaho is Matri 2.0. We sign Vlaho from Rube and Rube will use put that money on top of their budget to sign Osimhen. Not only will we help them gather enough money to pay, we'll also help them clear their wage bill. Screw that shit!
I won't get the Vlahovic jersey. That's what cursed Matri with us :cry:

True! The one I really sometimes forget even played for us is Vieri :lol:

Couldn't even tell you if he was good or bad.
