Pato

[fLame]

Nothing heartless. This is all business.

Pato swore his future. But If Milan dont offer the best contract in the future wouldnt he leave to another big team who pays more?

We all have attachments to certain players ( mine is Robinho) but I'd sell have the team if you told me that our chances of scudettos and CL's would increase.

We want Milan to win. Great players will always come and leave but MILAN is what remains.

If it was "just business" then players like Maldini wouldn't exist. Nor would players that accept pay cuts to play for a certain team or to help their team in a tough financial situation.

And if it was "all about winning" - Maldini should have left Milan at the end of our best cycles to a different team that was more likely to win.

Ok, you have your opinion and it's your right.
But don't be surprised when I laugh in people's faces next time they mention Sheva, or if they mention "broken hears because Thiago is moving to Barca" or if they mention "crying because Nesta is retiring".

It's just business.

And to prove that I am not the only one with such opinion - look at Bayern's policies. They helped Ribery through his depression and problems because he is their player and they are loyal. They support Robben no matter how many times per season he gets injured... (and at the end of the day both these players repay the trust) Bayern actually has a great record supporting their players, but oh well...

This sort of attitude makes me sick. Yesterday a player is your hero. Tomorrow - "olololo he sucks, sell him to the highest bidder". This is not Milan worthy attitude, if you don't see how, the there's nothing I can do to explain.

No player is bigger than the team.

This is an excuse, not a reason. And you are clearly using it when it's most convenient. How about we sell our stars under this motto? Will you stand by it?

And what is Milan? Before everything else - it's a set of values and principles to stand behind. Wasn't "family atmosphere" one of them?
Is it Pato's fault that milan lab doesn't know what they are doing? Anyway, I think I said enough in the previous post.
