As of moments ago Lampard, A.Cole and Eto'o are available on a free after being released by Chelsea. Where is Galliani? :p

Niang on season long loan at West Ham? Option to buy for €5 million.

I wouldn't be surprised if we signed all 3 of them

People, this is a club we support, that's what the forum is about, isn't it?
Now maybe Galliani is a bit silly but he is doing his best. You have to also think of the budget in Milan, I mean we are no PSG are we?

Welcome to the forum to both you and CaliforniaMilan. Smile

CaliforniaMilan's post is spot on in my opinion, every point he/she makes. Firstly, I think it's important to clarify the "hatred" is very much anger towards the way the club is being run and how individuals (from management, coaches and players) have conducted themselves. If we hated the club, we wouldn't be here.

The management, almost completely Galliani and Silvio Berlusconi, have shown no respect to those who follow the club. Silvio likes to talk about how much money he pumps into the club yet fails to acknowledge the efforts people out there go to to spend on the club. I've said before, but some people who can't spend what Silvio spends, make a bigger sacrifice in terms of percentage of income than Silvio would ever dream of.

It's not just about money either, but rather values we claim to have yet prove to be hypocrites in reality. The whole Milan family concept is a complete farce. We show zero respect to those who took Milan to the top, just look at Maldini's situation or Seedorf. Then there's the BS PR spin these clowns try by constantly saying fans should be grateful and how we're the most titled club in the world, comments which are surely only made because they take people for fools.

As for Galliani doing his best, that's just not good enough. Many people, including myself, work various jobs and if we under perform, we will face disciplinary action and a potential sacking, because unfortunately simply trying your best isn't enough. When you're in a position he's in, you also have more responsibilities and therefore the margin for error is smaller and the cost of failure is usually much greater. Galliani, despite for years having done an inadequate job has not faced a single sanction during this time, the closest being Barbara Berlusconi calling him out on his poor decisions.

What you might refer to as being a bit silly I would call a damn right incompetent fool, as he's made decisions that anyone with even a semblance of knowledge on the sport would know are bad. The most obvious is Matri, who was brought at a cost of 11m, not only a significant amount of money, but for a player who most people agreed wasn't needed and offered little to what we already had. On top of the transfer fee, we have to pay millions on his salary. We also made a loss of around 15m this past financial year, a significant portion of which was accrued due to the Matri signing alone. We were the top earning club in Italy until this season, now we're second, yet we can't even compete financially with the likes of Verona at the moment. People are totally right to question the actions of individuals when this is the case.

The anger is justified, because the individuals currently in positions of power at the club are destroying it and losing all of the values and identity of the club in the process.

That's what I read, and €310,000 for the loan itself. We must have given up on him. Our "youth project" works just fine... Dodgy


RE: Summer Mercato - reza - 05-23-2014

Compare that to this:

Quote:Chelsea have confirmed they have agreed terms with Paris Saint-Germain for the sale of David Luiz.
Widespread reports on Friday had claimed the two clubs were in advanced talks over the Brazil international, with the BBC suggesting a fee in the region of 40 million pounds and the Daily Mail and Sky Sports putting the figure closer to 50 million pounds.

And don't forget west Ham paid ~15 million pounds to get Andy Carroll two years ago. Someone with the potential and youth of Niang should be worth more




RE: Summer Mercato - Nalx - 05-23-2014

Wow, PSG just received a 48,5 million poundsterling fine for breaching the FFP as per Football 365 and they didn't bat an eyelid. if David Luiz deal goes through, with Thiago Silva and Marquinho, this must be the most expensive defense line ever assembled in history. I bet a certain CEO is drooling at the prospect of getting some free leftover CB from this deal.

As for Niang's rumored buy-out price, while it does seem ridiculously small to me, I'm not surprised at all because hey, most of our transfers are ridiculous.


RE: Summer Mercato - Gabriel426 - 05-24-2014

Luiz and Silva are a dream partnership that is and will be the best CB partnership for the next 4-6 yrs.

PSG are just spending crazy money.

That's the attitude, mate. However, I think Nalx and some others don't stop supporting the club, they are just expressing their discontent, and World Cup comes at the right time to balance the feeling. Well, "even lovers need a holiday, far away from each other" ^^ some sad football fans also need that ^^

Thank you Aficio. I feel much more welcome this way!
