No way. She is so stubborn.

I doubt ambro,gatusso and MVB being great players throughout their careers.when we first get ambro and gatusso,they were just average players,even not fringe guys for NT.
we have a compact backine and defensive midfield as any powerhouse in europe,to challenge CL,we need to save our budget for great attacking players,like ACM or wingers.
You think we have to invest in an area where we have Ibra, Pato, Robinho, Cassano, Inzaghi and Palsochi? We don't need wingers, that's a heavy investment, as we don't have natural wingers, we need to buy at least 2 players for the position. We only need a AMC and a MC.
Yes, we need some game-changer caliber attacking players, guys like prime-time kaka,robben,c-ronaldo,bale......who can make something happen by his own.

The problem is they are all wingers except Kaka. Our DNA is 4-3-1-2. We already have enough starts in forward position. Robinho, Pato, ibra, Cassano.
We just need 2 players, LCM and CAM...

Every time we do deals with Genoa, I get worried. I'm worried that something is up. The boateng deal seems basically a buying of Genoa's EU spot which I doubt the FIGC would approve. If we do it again, they might come after us.

But Milan players are so much more handsome...
and we are full of champions.

The Vidal deal seems unlikely at this point, and although I haven't seen much of him I wouldn't mind a Chilean player at the moment, as they've got some real gems. I really like the work ethic and tactical discipline of the modern Chilean players.
There are rumours of Ganso again (naturally), but I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't come this summer. I think he will come, but in January. This deal works well for both Milan and Santos, as Milan can let him continue to grow in Brazil a little longer and hopefully Santos will reduce the price a little if they're given a chance to hold onto him until after the World Club cup.
RE: Summer Mercato 2011 - Hasan Rossonero - 06-23-2011
I rarely speculate about ostensibly far-fetched deals. However, I do think that we're in the running to sign Fabregas.
The pregnant silence around our real target and the growing speculation in admittedly peripheral media outlets have raised my expectations. I think our interest is real, and our offer will be substantial. I know some here think that those of us waiting for the "Fabregas e' del Milan" headline in late July or August are deluded, but I have hope. The funds we are gathering from players' sales, and the funds we may gather from the departure of Cassano could be used to launch a 35 million euros+ bid.
Thiago Silva was in the news again today, professing his love for our shirt. I hope this doesn't turn into a Kaka saga, but I think it already has. Unfortunately, players who pledge fealty are never to be believed these days. Neither are, of course, officials. Galliani will keep TS as long as Berlu wants.
Paolo Berlusconi, the brother of Silvio, also recently said that if a colossal offer came in for TS it would make sense to sell him to buy many Thiago Silvas. Of course, it's absurd to think anyone but the best could do instead of T. Silva. Paolo hasn't learned that he comes from the Berlusconi family, but only one member of that family is the most successful. Further, what he says doesn't have much weight, but it shows an awareness of the fiscal, and not solely the sentimental. Sadly, I think TS will be in La Liga by 2013.
The transfer market is strange now. In particular, Barcelona and Real Madrid have made it impossible to compete. FFP will change the landscape to the detriment of Serie A sides (for reasons you already know). FFP rules also come at a time when Serie A needs to compete in Europe. The league already lost its 3rd spot, and it needs to reclaim it.
A big signing is needed now before we bear the full brunt of FFP.

4th spot is lost.
A big signing this year will still impacted by the FFP. Signing Cesc for 4 yrs @ 32 million would mean 8 million per year just for the transfer fee. I'm not sure the logic of "we better start signing players now before FFP" is valid. That's why I'm one of the serious doubters of Cesc coming to Milan.
We'll see what happens...

I meant 3rd spot in the UEFA coefficient rankings (which of course means Italy loses the right to have 4 clubs in the CL).
It's true--it will be impacted, but the time to absorb the losses will be greater. I am not saying for Silvio to fund the entire operation through his pocket, but if he is to contribute it is better to do it now than a year from now. Wenger said the same about the transfer market a few days ago.
Also, after reading extensively on the FFP topic, it seems UEFA will show some flexibility if your losses are showing a trend of decreasing. This again raises the idea of how strictly the rules will be enforced.
