Rumours mercato

Quaresma costs 45 m, so no
Fofana may come
Jimmy Hendricks is not coming
Miranchuk is just a random name thrown by GDM who is dogshit
Kalulu will probably not start

#WhatsApp And of #40mil the quotation that the #Eintracht from to #Rebic , far from #25mil than 6 months ago. Ideal framework to replicate the operation with #Silva in the opposite direction, so as to generate import capital gains. But to date the Germans are not inclined to "buy" #AS9 in advance.

 

[DeNiro]

This is season is dead, another waste...looking forward to a fresh start with rangnick, I'm sure he will improve things alot

As far as I'm concerned, KEEPING theo, bennacer and Roma is most important right now. Then we build from there

Like reading about Southampton not Ac Milan

Ralf Rangnick is ready to 'anticipate' his arrival in Milan for the month of July.

The idea, which previously did not convince any of the parties in order to avoid further internal management problems, has been taking shape.

The chances of anticipating Ralf's arrival are increasing #Rangnick (not on the bench) "already" in July

For the German technician there are no problems starting as soon as possible, #Milan still evaluates and brakes a bit to avoid other internal management problems [@SimoneCristao ]

 

[rossonero1]

Lots?
I'm checking MN regularly, who aggregate all news about Milan (self-proclaimed "insiders" not included). Unless I missed something, only Republica reported about it. But they did it before. And time showed that they were wrong. It seems there is someone who's feeding them false information or they completely lost their integrity

Not saying there's anything legitimate to the claims but the rumors are saying August for a possible sale after the stadium ok.

In the last week of June the Arnault rumors pooped up again, then a day or so later shares were supposedly moved around by Elliott that involve Milan, then Braida came out a day or two after that saying he'd like to return to Milan.

Again it could all be BS as usual.

 

[rossonero1]

The only transfer I really want to see go through is Szoboszlai so Di Marzio gets humiliated again.

From Benzema making him look like a fool a few years ago to saying Correa was close from Atletico for 50m to saying Donnarumma was going to PSG for Areola. The man really has screwed up when it comes to Milan news.

Pioli press conference:

“It’s part of our DNA, the only data are the opportunities created and the shots made, or the ones of the opponents and for some time the numbers have been favourable, so we have the right mentality. Let’s try to control the game. In Ferrara we had many chances but had to score more. Now, the more difficult games are coming and therefore we must be more cynical and determined.”

“He’s [Kjaer] a player who, together with Romagnoli, forms a pair of smart players. They communicate well and have contributed to good results. But I always believe that the hard work in front of the defenders is important too.”

“Maybe because we are talking about easy games, but the truth is that in Italy, there are no simple games. In the end, the points count, you have to play your best and make decisions with the whole squad. Now a mini tournament of nine games will start, each game will be worth a lot. Lazio are so complete, and the two comebacks demonstrated it. Even without [Ciro] Immobile and [Felipe] Caicedo, Lazio will not change the way we set up. We need to be aware and composed. We must play with absolute precision.”

“The plan is to do well tomorrow night; we can’t think about the other games. We have few days to recover and then we’ll think about the other matches. We need points because the table is tight both above and below us.”

“His condition [Zlatan] will improve with the minutes he plays. He played 30 minutes against SPAL, yesterday he trained well. I hope to give him some more minutes against Lazio. It takes time to build a team, we are different from the first leg because we have changed tactics, positions and players. But Lazio are a complete team, they are having an incredible season.”

Milan's probable line-up vs Lazio according to Sky:

Gigio; Conti, Kjaer, Romagnoli, Theo; Kessie, Bennacer; Paqueta, Jack, Hakan; Leao;

 

[Kaka92]

Actually it's reported that Ibra will start, alongside with Hakan, Saladmakers and Rebić.


Paqueta and Leao best players last game... benched in next one. Pioli.

I get it for Leao, I understand that Ibra and Rebić are ahead of him but how the hell you can bench Paqueta after last game?

Paqueta is literally in the probable line-up posted above you, so how can you get so mad while you read anotjer probable line up?

One is GdS and the other is Sky, let's see.

I guess we have to keep in mind that we have a bunch of tough games coming up in quick succession. Fitness and keeping players fresh is very important.

Having said that, I agree with you and I guess I'm just looking for excuses trying to make sense of it. But it doesn'tmake sense because Rebic looked gassed and terrible last game. So he's probably in more need of rest than Paqueta. Also, Hakan keeps playing 90 mins in every game, and with each passing game he looks more fatigued, worse and worse and very sloppy. I mean, how many shots did he scuff vs SPAL?! Even for his (low) standards of shot conversion, that was reallly bad.So why those 2 ahead of Paqueta, i don't know...so let's hope that the probable line up with Paqueta turns out to be the correct one.

 

[VultureSheva]

PSV set Dumfries' price at 25 million, while Milan is not ready to pay this much. The rossonero club has not yet submitted any offer and is actively following other profiles. #MilanNews

 

[VultureSheva]

Rebic + Ibra together against a top club, Jack Bonaventura in the bench. I find it difficult to happen. But still I won't be surprised if Ibra & Saelemaekers start.

 

[Kaka92]

Tbh both Gazzeta and Sky are mostly wrong about starting lineup, thwy always miss one or two players.

I know that it's big game but Rebić really needs rest. And Paqueta deserve starting spot.


But the thing is... I don't even know for what we're playing so I don't know why I even care about it who will play or not.
Ok, it will be nice to get EL spot but it's not disaster if we miss it either.

 

[beegees]

Barca were making shit transfer decisions priority to Abidal anyway. The only 2 bad transfers he did was the Malcolm and Griezmann.

Barca identity crisis, aging team, declining of their la masia, and failed transfers, are just another example what happened when you hired incompetent people (such as Eric Abidal) in club management.

And Braida
As far as I know, Abidal is just a puppet.

#neverforget Rui Costa makes Atl. Madrid pays 126M for youtube sensation, Joao Felix.

Benfica becaome a global figurehead in player development since Rui Costa is in charge.

Someone please explain how this is a bad performance - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4sCfio7dDBI

A few good forward passes
Stole the ball a few times
Great reading of the game for Hakan's disallowed goal
Did decently in defense
Almost scored/assisted (1:20)
Almost assisted Ibra (1:35)
Almost assisted Leao (2:07)
In all the 3 occasions above (the almost ones) he did what he had to. It was not his fault none of these went in
Forced the 2nd goal

This is in ~70 minutes. I am not saying he was outstanding, but saying he had a bad game shows little football understanding. Yes, he delivered 3-4 disgusting crosses, but this is normal. I think he did very well for somebody who never played more than 20 minutes for Milan

All of that was happening before Abidal got the job. Barca have been poorly run ever since Laporta left.

Rui Costa, Monchi & Zorc all finished playing and went straight into being SD's. Begiristain went from being a commentator to an SD. So this narrative that you have to have experience to do the role is nonsense. Even Campos who didnt even work for 6 years, then became a scout for a year before he got the Monaco job.

 

[ShevaNo7]

I thought he had decent game overall.
I don?t get it in context of praise for Paqueta who could?ve had another 90 mins of nice touches and still not make a decisive action. Plus he could?ve dealt with the cross for Spal?s first goal

 

[Kaka92]

Lol fiorentina will hire De Rossi as their coach.


When I thought that Milan had terrible management over the years, here is Fiorentina who is even worse.

Thank you. People were so negative towards him. Classic Milan fans, always a scapegoat.

Maybe he's not supposed to be our most decisive player?

You have to understand also that we were playing full possession game, and I saw Saele losing the possession unnecessary when others were trying to avoid mistakes. He was the weak part of the team.

 

[VultureSheva]

According to Pellegatti, Milan, to reinforce the RB, likes 2 profiles: Simakan (in pole) and Dumfries. The first costs 15 million, the second 25-28. First one must go out from Conti and Kalabria.

 

[Kaka92]

Isn't he CB?
