Summer mercato 2012

[ACM2023]

I am actually looking forward to the beginning of new season, just so that we could throw all the summer madness behind. Of course, if we don't reinvest properly, once the new season starts, I am afraid that I would be hoping that the season be over as quickly as possible.

They are staying and they count as 2 new signings

so total this mercato we made 3 great signings, didnt we? not bad..

Just be clear, you are counting Silva twice, right?

I may sound like a broken record, but even from a pure financial perspective, selling Silva and Ibrahimovic while keeping Robinho and Mexes (and Pato too, in a way) is in no way the best solution that we could have.

I am sure that if Galliani has the ball to sell Ibrahimovic or lower his salary, and get rid of other second-tier earners (those with net 4Mil per year), and leave Silva alone and untouched, all would have been solved smoothly. I could not imagine that Silva or his agent would even demand a raise a few months after his recent renewal. Boateng probably would keep his mouth shut too.

And they had to sell Silva.

Poor Acerbi came to play with the world's best defender, and who knows, he may become Milan's best defender in the new season along with Bonera. I wonder what is going through his mind now.
