What sort of integration were you expecting?
Pobega is just a new Daniel Maldini, here to fill the homegrown spot and be the backup for the backups, with slight hopes that he might turn into a utility player like Krunic.
That's going to take more than just a preseason and a few appearances to find out.

As for Adli, he's not a double pivot midfielder, his CAM game at Bordeaux didn't seem fast paced enough for our approach. Heck, the club was even willing to wait one year for his arrival. Let's just say he wasn't picked because he filled immediate needs of the coach.
I'm not optimistic, but still, a preseason and a few rounds is barely anything when you're dealing with a young, tactical misfit in a new league and country.
If they are misfits and don't fit any role by either making the first team better / replacing players that left / or have good rotational purpose then someone fucked up.

I'll let the fanboys fight over if it was Maldini or pioli.

And if this is the case then the original poster was right. Rotating is silly when you don't have a squad you can rotate.

Especially 4 games into the season with our first mid week game.

seems weird theres not more hype around him

whenever i see/hear about him he does crazy shit like this. his left foot is out of this world



you look at him and think that this could be the best cf our academy has potentially produced in years ceiling wise (not saying hell necessarily reach that)

Adli is yet to start a game.
Pobega started because Krunic is injured and Tonali just returned from one.

I think it's too early to give up on them, but also way too early to expect them to be fully integrated by now. Maldini? Adli, a seemingly undervalued Ligue 1 talent, looks like a Moncada signing, approved by Massara.
I view Paolo as more of a player manager / advisor on defenders / seducer than a nerdy technical director who keeps tracks of players in obscure leagues.

His shooting was always really good. It was the rest of his game ( ball control, vision, dribbling,,,etc ) that was really bad. Overall Nasti seems a better player. If Colombo can score 10+ goals then maybe Milan can sell him for 15-20 mil next summer!

We actually won one game 1-0 because of him
exactly. He turned up in UCL. I hope we don't lose a UCL match because he underperformed but so far, history is, he won us a game with other guys of course. So its ok to have him in UCL till he can win games for us. Serie A is different matter. I hope CDK/Dest are tried out by pioli on the wing so that right wing becomes better then what it is.

Yes. RW can be Saele for balance or we move to 4-3-2-1 with Leao & CDK behind Giroud
You normally say ridiculous stuff, and this is no different. Last game has made it abundantly clear there is no hope for Saele at Milan. I bet he would do well at a small club tho

I think Serie A will push for better TV deals now. We gonna be flush with cashhhhhhhh

Are we expecting any one else today? Maldini to pull one last suprise out the bag?

Why Genny.....Onyewu scarred you?
Matches? They said only postgame programme or some shit
They will show match replays and if its like their (and similar netowrks) content they will run them multiple times. Not sure if they will have classic matches too but this will be at minimum the start of thier content vault for Milan

Hope that happens and he can be a starter at Milan!

Regarding Colombo - Lecce have an option on him. I imagine they will activate it.
I hope our buy back isn't much higher. Anything over 4 mil more than they pay us, would mean we may ignore buying him back. Which is long term bad business. We should buy him back.

I use Maldini as a catch all term for mmm.

I don't think it's too much for players to at least know their positions 3 months after joining.

Either way.. if you don't have a team to rotate then don't. Just sub people in as required. If you do have / want a team to be rotational then make sure u know their positions.

Pobega is a 23 year old who has made his national team debut and been in serie A for who knows how long not to mention he has trained with our squad in previous seasons.

This is just very meh.

I saw spuds were negotiating with Chelsea for Ziyech. Auba is going to Chelsea so they need to get Ziyech off their books. Maldini should give it one last go.
