Regarding the second bolded part - they have been asking. The problem is simply that other leagues make more money than serie A. The politics in Italy, behavior of certain fans, and poor FIGC leadership have all contributed to Serie A's diminishing brand. And now it has culminated with Italy losing a CL spot.

So many posters here thought that this summer, we would revolutionize the squad - some even thinking we would spend 100 million (!). Truth is, Italian teams are stretched thin and we don't have the earning power to keep up with the other leagues. It is absolutely no coincidence that Germany has trumped us for 3rd coefficient after all the money the country spent on stadiums after 2006 WC.

IMO - Serie A will be in a depression for at least another 3-5 years. I think we all need to manage our expectations a little better. Right now our only focus should be on getting our second stella. Milan really have the best team in Serie A and we can win the next two scudetti. (Eventually Juve will probably edge us out.) Forget CL for a couple of years. Perhaps FFP will level the playing field a bit more in the years ahead where italy and esp Milan can come back.

All this said, I still expect us to nab a quality LCM before the summer is over - so keep your heads up!

FFP will make things WAY WAY worse for us. We don't own our own stadium, therefore less revenue, therefore we can spend less. It will be a disaster for us. This was our last chance to spend €€€€€ and we didn't. Seedorf/Rino/MvB/Boateng is our Diamond midfield... CL will look ugly ugly ugly like last year....

Even Serie A won't be easy .... Inter always toughs it out, Napoli are balanced, and Roma and Juventus have certainly improved. Berlusconi has really dropped the ball here...After winning the Scudetto just getting 2 guys for Free was not enough.

Oh, and by the way, not only did we not re-new midfield, we lost Merkel & Strasser HAHA... what kind of a stupid joke was that?

I'm sure he knows what he's doing and he knows how to manage the club, i'm also quite sure they have no desire to drive milan into a dark age. Maybe Berlu plans to have 2billion$ of his will put to milans transfer spending money imagine that, lol 3-4 generations of great players.. Jokes aside, I wouldn't be worried. I also wouldn't listen to any media, the real news that can actually be confirmed is Raiola has been working on a big player for us for quite some time.. You guys also must take hints from what our management says. Allegri said he'll be a top player, but not like 50 million euros, Milan plays the media like a puppet when it comes to transfer season, for all we know that could mean the player costed 49 million.. Let's be real, if all our players want to win CL they're not blind to see that barca and real are a step ahead of us.
