The previous tweet on #TheoHernandez produced a phone call with the following content "Watch out for Allegri, he will try to understand the contours of the Frenchman's situation and the possibility of being able to work on mending relations. He will do so during the meeting scheduled with the management" (source @tvdellosport ). Time to process, and @Glongari had already spoken about it in his editorial, so mine is confirmation of his news, and consider it as such. I talked about it in the video coming out soon on #Milancommunity

No, I wouldn't say that
You don't just score 46 goals in 72 matches for Netherlands NT
Hunt had a lot of injury issues, he tore his knee ligaments multiple times which would have turned off many big clubs from buying him from Schalke
He was more of a penalty box striker though

But the timing was not right when he joined us, he flopped one season and was moved
He was born like 5-7 years too late for the biggest career possible for his type probably, that NT-football was a bit behind in tactical development probably helped him there as well.

Timing was definitely bad, around 2012 or so he could have established himself much more at Milan.

Ffs Carlitos 😭 😭 😭

We should have nabbed both him and mascherano after wc 2006

Not getting Crespo was definitely a dumb move considering the season he'd just had with us.
As I understand it, we could have only gotten Crespo in exchange for Sheva
Chelsea offered 73 million + Crespo for Sheva
Abramovich was so hell-bent on getting Shevchenko that Chelsea failed to get a big-name striker that year

From Wiki

Return to Chelsea​

After Chelsea's failed attempts to land a big-name striker during the summer of 2005, Mourinho needed competition for Didier Drogba and decided to recall Crespo from Milan, convincing him that he had a future in England. Crespo made his first return appearance in a 2–1 FA Community Shield win over Arsenal.[22] He scored his first league goal of 2005 against newly promoted Wigan Athletic in the 93rd minute of Chelsea's season opener in a 1–0 win, with a left foot curler into the top corner from 25 yards.[23] The 2005–06 league title was Crespo's first league title victory in European football

He had a good season with Inter after that and then he started declining

I remember us picking up Papin after Marseille "beat" us.

I loved that we got players from teams that beat us, at the time. But realise a lot of those moves, the players failed with us.

Rinsing Ajax after they beat us was a big dick move but we kinda ended up with jizz on our face. None of those moves really worked for us.

Was it Davids, Bogarde and Kluivert?
First came Reiziger & Davids in 1996, then Bogarde & Kluivert in 1997. All bosmans (that rule came in effect just then), all gone within a year.

I need to be clear, the timing was bad for us only.
As for the rest, he would have been one of the best strikers of the generation and would have accomplished far more if not for the numerous injuries.
He wouldn't have stayed at Schalke for too long, guaranteed Bayern would have swooped in for him at some point at the minimum.

When I commented on him being a penalty box striker I didn't mean to say that he was outdated. He was just a more classic striker like a Radamel Falcao-type.

Sportitalia confirm that there will be a meeting between Cardinale, Furlani, Tare and Allegri and they say that Allegri will try to work on behalf of Theo, he will try to convince the ownership to forgive Theo

Suma said Morata wants to come back with Allegri, Xhaka is a hot name, he does not want to talk about Vlahovic we have to wait and see what happens with him, we want 30 for Musah not 25, Inter budget is over, if they want to buy now they have to sell first
Luckily no available airplane tickets .

If Allegri says Mike and Theo are salvageable... well then let's give it a try.
But only if they sign a contract extension before the end of Summer.
