There are rumors everywhere that Morata wouldn't mind coming back to Milan in order to play for Allegri. This absolutely cannot be allowed to happen, the guy can't score to save his life, too emotional, gets depressed, cries, and there's no crying in football.

As for Vlahovic, checked his record and in his worst season since leaving Fiorentina still scored 16 goals in all competitions, including 4 in CL and 1 yesterday in the CWC. Taller, faster, better shooter including free kicks, than Gimenez and still young at 25. Would only cost 20 or so but needs to cut his salary in half, either with a longer contract or some bonuses.

:lol:

Bro had to single out royal specifically when a Google would provide 'alternative facts'

You're the 2nd person to use a story from Calciomercato to "confirm" he's the one who wanted him.

Carlo won ONE single scudetto as a Serie A manager, in 10+ seasons. That includes coaching teams like Milan (90%) Juventus and Napoli
Conte has FIVE scudetti.
Max has.... SIX.

We're not in Europe, so no point in discussing it... But it's honestly hilarious to watch the way people talk about our coach like we hired some hack. :lol:
Talking bout "league guarantees" but dismiss clear facts.....
I'm not a fan of Carlo(Did too much for UEFA Madrid), but most of Max's Scudetti were in a weak league where he had the most loaded team. For further context, Ranieri's one EPL title holds more weight than Max's 5 league wins with Juventus. I don't think either way about his arrival, but come on now...

I absolutely LOVE posters who back/vehemently defend certain people in management without fault, like they're a fly on the wall in casa Milan and know to a fact who orchestrated which move

Alternatively, pointing a finger to a certain person as the sole decision maker in all of the organization (goes for gerry/furlani/Paolo haters)

Not different than backing your theo's/leao's/mike's, btw

Sure

Now give us a Geoffrey hidden recording from casa Milan, exonerating him from that decision making

You know, as public record shows otherwise

No but we have written confirmation of him vouching for Theo.
Iirc for Kerkez too, but 100% for Theo.

Until someone can show me he vouched for Royal, I will absolutely chalk him up to being a signing of the most braindead, useless moron in the entire football management kingdom - Zlatan.

In that article he says that after a stellar first season and a shit second one, RLC will be keen for a redemptive third.

Also, that he likes to talk about meditation and read books by Dalai Lama.

Vouching for Theo???

Are you telling me Theo being here is due to moncada and not this?

With Theo himself wouldnt be half of the player 'Theo' is, without maldini giving him personal guidance, as we've seen by the drastic fallout since his departure, as Theo being a sentimental player who plays based of his emotions (like Rafa).

I credit reindeer to moncada, btw.

A player from erdeviese, on the rise but still unknown, and with a great PERSONAL qualities and not necessarily football ones, has tripled his value mostly due to his drive and characteristics.

Need I remind you, moncada wasn't primarily known just for being an algorithm scout, but someone who factors the human element and goes to the youngster's home and talks to his family, to understand the player's hollistic qualities.

Therefore, I fully credit CDK to moncada as well.

I REFUSE to believe an SD like maldini just randomly saw a Belgian league player on YouTube and decided to blow 90% of the Mercato budget on him. Moncada has 'vouched' on him as well.

I understand sticking by your man, but an argument isn't relevant when one brings some news sources (sempremilan isn't a twitter poster with 3k followers, btw) and the other says "yeah nah, I didn't hear it as a sermon from Geoffrey's mouth".

Football discussion is not academia.

No one wants to answer this simple question.
If we sell Maignan for 30mil. Even 20-25mil, and account for his salary too. - Can we find a better replacement? If you say no - then what about Milinkovic Savic or Meret (free)?
Factor in how long it has been since Maignan has had a consistent season. I don't want a goalkeeper who can make a few insane saves, but then concede goals no professional GK should. The last time he was decent was the Scudetto season.

Now, with 30 mil - tell me who you want to sign to replace Theo? Perhaps he'll outperform the Theo of last season. But is there even a 1% chance this name will get to Theo's best form?
And are you completely ruling out any chance that Theo, a 27 yo, has even a 1% chance of rediscovering that form.

You think we have a better chance of finding a top LB with 30mil than we do of just getting Theo back to form? Fair enough.
Why would we need to find top LB for 30m? We just need to find better than Theo. Theo himself is not TOP for too long, in fact he is bad and he cost us points very often. Just find defensive minded lb if we gonna keep Leao and it will work much better while being cheaper.
Yes, i do think he will not rediscover his form, in fact i also think he is rotten apple in team, he drags other players with his shitty attitude.
He is some kind of "untouchable" in first 11, plays like shit and he costed us CL.
I would understand ppl like you who want to forgive him, if he was at least trying.. but the way he ruined our cl and some other serie A games is totally unacceptable. Amateur level and even rude or disrespectfull

I get the impression RLC doesn't read. Not the most intelligent fella.

As his biggest hater, yes I'd love him to go, but as a 6th choice CM - I can live with it. Though he's limited, he can offer something in certain scenarios. I'm thinking ala Fellaini.
But the fact he can attract interest from EPL and hopefully at the same price we paid - it's time to just let him go home.

You would note that there aren't a ton of complaints about whatever the fuck he gets up to when he's not on the field :o
Bro he has been mocked for two months & still is for beating a hooker despite no actual police complaint or accusation

What makes you think he’s not the most intelligent fella? He seems like an introvert who’s always licking his wounds but I never got dumb from him.

I’m indifferent to him staying or going. If Allegri can fashion something out of him then cool. If not, we have bigger issues to sort out on the team.
