No we'll have something blue. Maybe not for this winter...but def. for next summer. Something should come out of CL. And the way the team has been playing, I'm sure Galliani's been working overtime getting us new sponsors. Not to mention Becks and R80 jersey sales will continue.

We might have at least 10-15 to spend next season I think.

He's playing for Inflation FC and there will be a bunch of teams after him... double that I think.

The last line ruined your whole post. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sleep.gif)

I think that Berlusconi would seel Milan if the club don't make profit for it self, i think that we are geting 65 - 80 Mil € clean money evry year ( expect last year when we didn't qualify for CL ).
I bet we have bunch of money just B&G don't want to spent it any more coes of recesion, onlly Milan problem is Berluscon coes he is Prime Minister of Italy and he don't want to SPENT coes of Voters...

My predicitons are :

Simon Kjær
Adriano ( Sevilla )
Dzeko ( Wolfsburg )

Um. I'm probably one of the few (along with former boardmember R7) who's actually read Milan's financial statements. The club hasn't been making a profit for years. The losses are nowhere near the cugini's 130 million euros/year rate but they're significant (last year, I think it was around 60 million operating loss, don't remember offhand and the club audits are on my other computer). That's why the austerity measures -- while we sold Kaka, we didn't spend all the money on the market and talked a lot about 'balancing budgets' and stuff in the summer. I think that the club's been starting early on getting to a balanced budget before the new UEFA financial rules come in -- because, honestly, the cugini, Liverpool, MU, Madrid, etc at this point would have difficulty passing the financial stuff.

Gago for 6m? No way. I think we'd do well to get him for double that.

I didn't say his value for everyone was 6 m. His price for us will be 6m. There is no way G will pay over 10m for him. We'll probably do a loan thing if we really want him bad but can't afford him.

I don't know about this, I sure am proud to see someone so eager to wear our colours but getting him would mean a departure for one of our strikers. As of right now, I'm happy with our striking options, Borriello, Huntelaar, Inzaghi, and Pato.

Of course the most likely choice to leave would be Huntelaar. I think Dzeko's a great striker, but as much as I'd like to see him in Milan, it's not at the expense of Huntelaar cuz the guy just got here.

unless hunter goes the other way, i don't see the Dzeko thing happenning, while i don't watch to much Bundesliga anymore, i don't know what type of a Fwd he is but if we've learned anything from Hunter is that these present tactis don't suit him and as i had mentioned before he would need to be partenered with borriello with ronnie/pato on the flanks with pirlo and ambro/seedorf behind those 4, that being said i think that is a little too attacking for modern day football and wouldn't happen, is Dzeko an upgrade at CF over boriello in our tactics or does he play like klaas?

dzeko would be at this point better than pato. He can play on the flank, in the middle. He is tall, 190 cm. Good dribbling ability, strong as hell and has a wicked finish.


He is a world class striker.

Dzeko would pair with any of our forwards. He's that type of player. True he also likes to start on the left and cut in...but he gives a lot of option. He can play with KJH, Pippo, Borriello anyone... You can even have him as sole striker and give Borriello a rest.

I think Dzeko is important because it gives our 4-3-3 a lot of options.

Per che? I don't think so. You'll notice very little money has been spent this season for Leo. I think 10-15 for a summer transfer window is about par. Mid-tier teams spend that much.

Unless you're suggesting that 10-15 is a tiny amount, which I can't disagree with entirely.You'd have to use the Milan brandname, and hopefully the success we're reaping now (and that shall continue to season's end) to attract players.

I'm going to respectfully disagree with you jack. I personally think we'll have 40-50 million in the summer to spend. Whether we spend it all or not is the question.

was thinking the same thing

but myself i dont see the 4-3-3 as a long term solution, maybe not even for next season. i just find it too limited, and demands too many specific pieces for the setup.
