A few new rumors about us keeping an eye on a young Greek defender from Schalke, any of our Greek members can give us some feedback about him?

Kyriakos Papadopoulos? I only knew him from Football Manager, he's one of the top young CBs

As for Pirlo, I really don't get his comments either. I can only imagine he felt hard done by or something, but his comments aren't doing him any favours, he sounds nothing short of an ass lately and is doing pretty well of losing the fans he made over the past decade.

Count me in, that butthole is one of the most despicable players for me right now in Serie A.

[am I Milan enough?]

If Berlu was really pissed off & offended by Ibra's comments (telling him he's broke), he should :
a. Immediately sell Ibra, and sign 3-4 big names straight away (or later) to let Ibra know of his power, fortune, etc.
b. Tell Ibra off (but still keep him), and do as above mentioned.
c. Still Do nothing. (as he's really broke)

Pls react wisely Berlu

Either way, Milan fans win except if Berlu spends nothing, but that's nothing new.

Watch pirlo get humiliated on a 1 on 1 open field aganst fabregas or iniesta when italia plays he wont have 6 players infront of him like in conte's 352,

Oscar was impressive in a friendly game against denmark.if we sell robinho to malaga for 15-20 mln,it's well enough to get oscar since his pricetag is not hyped like neymar or lucas,I like this kid more than ganso.

Acerbi,obgonna,strootman and oscar;I will cosider these 4 signning a solid summer market if berlu is truely broken,I think we need a 15 mln transfer fund for a market like this.if there should be anything further for next season,I'm going to pray for a healthy pato.

Sounds like a decent plan. I'm all for those 4 players. That said, I do believe we can probably shell out a bit more than a meagre 15 mln.

Can I try smth?

WE will DO NOTHING, as we can not TELL IBRA OFF,and he knows that we will NOT SELL HIM TO GET 3-4 BIG NAMES, thats is why he react like he does.

The thing that annoys me the most in this situation is the fact that neither US the fans nor the mgm (with official statement) have said ok just warn him, and put him where he belongs (the diplomatic way to handle the situation). But NO with him you have to play by his rules,you have to go from extreme to extreme,and that is smth I am not willing to do and dont want my club to do.

[ACMILAN1983]

Yeah, Silva did not say Milan doesn't have the money, but that they need to spend...at the end of mercato, when we DONT spend, it is going to be the same.... Ibra just said the truth, didnt he?

The same meaning, just different words. Double standards dude.

Look, keep spouting nonsense about double standards all you want, but I said already I don't think it's particularly bad to say the squad needs reinforcement (whether it be Ibra or Thiago). Ibra's comments are stupid as he talks of the club's finances, which no other player has done.

Anyway, I've had enough of repeating myself when you're clearly not reading what I'm posting. Keep talking about your double standards rubbish if you want.

lol I'm pretty sure I didn't ask about Papadopoulos

[Gabriel426]

Why do Milan have to play by Ibra's rules? I mean, if any club must play by their star player's rule, they will always end up the losing.

I lived in Toronto during the Vince Carter's era of the Raptors. The Raptors pretty much allow whatever Vince wants...like sending the company's private jet to take Carter to his graduation and back the day before the most important playoff game in the season. At the end, Vince left without Raptors getting any decent returns. Now, you look at Clevland and Lebron, we all knew what happened there. Same with Kobe and Lakers, or Bonds with Giants, or Cesc with Arsenal, or CR7 with ManU.......

My point is not Ibra did a horrible thing, rather it is the team itself having problems. If Milan is spending justly, not 100mil a yr, but about 40mil investment each summer(fair injection from a top 5 clubs in the world). If Milan is getting QUALITY players, Ibra, Silva or whoever won't be saying Milan needs better players....or Milan needs to spend money....

The problem is not Ibra opening his mouth, it is the lack of funding in the team. What makes matter worse is the fact that Juve, who needs to pay back their stadium, no CL football for the past 4-5 yrs, and have huge payroll(considering their income.) can manage to spend more money than Milan over the past few yrs. Galli might be a great deal/bargain maker but he is pure crap when it comes to financial management. Berlu also needs to know that he either sell the club to someone who is willing to spend or spend himself or just rebuild the team from ground up once and for all. Since now, I look at the current Milan as a team on life support(Silva and Ibra) wishing a cure(free or bargain players turning into WC players) will be found in the future instead of a team(like Juve) on its way to Glory.

Does that mean, Milan will be champion instead of Juve?

My friends, ManU fans, are complaining that ManU are being cheap with Kagawa, as Dortmond wants 16m and ManU is offering 13m. Wait till they hear Galli's offer, loan for 1st year(Dortmond paying half the salary) then 8mil with 4 installments with no interest. Thats exactly why clubs do not want Milan to go after their players while clubs love Milan to be after their target, b/c Milan just makes others offers look great.
