Yeah I wouldn't trust Bee with the club either. What if the banks suddenly decide that they don't want to spend more money on the club? Then we're really fucked.

I mean Berlusconi is a billionaire and in this economic climate he's struggling to run the club. How can we expect a guy whose worth 9 odd million, whose supported by bank loans to run this club ?

I don't think how much an individual is worth is that important today, it's where sources of revenue come from and specifically who you can involve to finance investments (i.e. Man Utd have had a massive boost in sponsorship with Adidas that's allowing them to spend huge sums in the market). In this respect, I think Bee's value isn't primarily my concern, taking out loans with banks is a concern.

Also, all things considered FFP needs to be factored in, as you could be owned by anyone and yet have your hands tied in terms of how much can be invested.

Berlusconi has a new Instagram. finally I think he has realized the value of social media for Propaganda purposes. Some of the hashtags are interesting. Nowadays for him it is all about Italian and Youth. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/newsbysector/mediatechnologyandtelecoms/11623074/Take-a-look-at-what-Silvio-Berlusconi-is-posting-on-his-new-Instagram-account.html

Talk is cheap. This guy however is amazing as he is almost always able to get what he wants through simply cheap talk.

Players are cheap too. At least the ones we'll end up with, anyway.

I am repeating myself, of course, but why not? :p

We are not likely to be in good shape with Berlusconi, the most we are likely to get is one good mercato. If by chance a great alternative shows up, great, party time. But otherwise hope for the best and Berlusconi is not the best, so ...

Good mercato, by what standards? Yeah, I know he kinda promised it, but the guy maybe just keeping up with his usual Empty promises to Milan fans / Year ratio...


RE: Venting, sell the club, etc. thread - reza - 05-22-2015

I agree with you. I am just saying that any - any at all - positivity with Berlusconi is almost surely one mercato. If he had any real willingness he wouldn't have let the team fall this far, but it is not out of the question that he will spend 30-40 as a one time thing.

In other forums I have been reading a lot of people supporting Galliani and how he should stay. Not just trolling, but these people genuinely argue that Galliani hasn't done well coz he didn't have money. I am curious to hear the thoughts of guys here, coz from all the forums i frequent, i consider you guys to be the smartest set of Milanisti and I just love the discussions here.

IMO Galliani's actions (or the lack of them) are the cause for our decline since 2007. Starting from long, lucrative contracts to aging players to the 'Parametro Zero' era. I also think that Berlusconi (whose to blame as well) has been spending for years to cover up losses brought about by Galliani's incompetence and that's why the transfer kitty is so small. to sum it up, I think Galliani needs to leave as this one man dictatorship style operation doesn't work in modern football.

What do you guys think?
