Fabregas went for a lot more then 30m (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) And Galliani just came out and said that Fabregas was way too expensive for us to sign. So that debunks your theory that we're financially strong enough to battle it out with Barca on any day of the week (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

The truth is that we were never really in it to begin with imo. The whole Mr. X thing was a good play from Galliani to keep things rolling while he does what he needs to do without too much pressure and to keep the attention away from the Fininvest deabacle, by leading people to believe that we don't have problems and are an OK away from a mult-million deal to sign Cesc Freakin' Fabregas ahead of Barca (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

I don't think we'll stream roll through anything, truth be told. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Serie A will be stronger this season, the top 5 being very competitive. Sure we can say we are still the best, and fingers crossed it shows, but inter, Juve, Roma, and Napoli are there for the blood. Quote me on this.

To somewhat seal the league we'll need all three of Kaka, Monty and Aqua. Or some similar solution.

Damn you!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

That's why I posted those line-ups. We'd be able to do well in Serie A, BUT only if we had those players. That has been the entire point of this argument, where have you been? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

I think Kaka would be more a bonus though. We have players who can fill in the AM position without too many troubles. It's the central midfield area that is worrying and needs the most attention imo.

However if we had those 2/3 players, you can quote me on this, we'll win the league

You're welcome. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/innocent.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)


Sorry, don't read monster half-mile long posts. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)


Can't disagree with this even if I tried. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/king.gif) That's our biggest problem I believe, maybe even bigger than all our other team issues combined. It's that missing piece that will keep the engine running, we're well covered in other areas from defense to defensive midfielders, and whatnot.


Oh don't you worry little Han. You can be sure I will. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/devil.gif) I just believe the 2nd year is the hardest in any sports. It's hard enough to get at the top, but to stay there is a whole different ball game. The other teams figure you out.

we tried for him, raiola was spotted with the arsenal board on several occassions and your right we don't have money but berlu does and that could have been his transfer.


cesc deal was 29m cash +10m incentives. Not 39m straight up, same with sanchez who was 27m +10m incentives.

Hah, I currently follow every single one of those. Great minds think alike.

We never had the money to back up any of those meetings. And have you been living under a rock blue? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) Silvio has got more financial trouble then Greece atm (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

You still have to cough up those 10m one way or the other, whether that is today or tomorrow it will still add up to a hefty sum that we simply couldn't match

Doesn't berlu have 8 billion or something?

NEWS:



-Media in france have said that were looking to bid 25m for schweinsteiger.


-Genoa want both Cassano and Gilardino


-Fabregas has come out and said that there were other offers on the table but he chose Barca because of the challenge.


-Ibrahimovic: "I will remain here until they'll kick me out"


-Juve have completed the signing of Carlos Eduardo from Rubin Kazan for 18m.


-We had basically signed Xavi,” Vice-President Galliani told Sky Sport Italia.

“However, the operation was not completed for family reasons – his mother got in the middle of it.”

9 actually (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

http://www.forbes.com/lists/2010/10/billio...amily_EEPT.html

But the ruling will be a huge financial hit for him, throwing money around for Milan is not something that he'll be doing at present


Sometimes I wonder why Galliani even bothers to open his mouth (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

I just hope we sign someone soon. I want a solid signing and there isn't much time left. The media is also pretty much out of ideas on who we can sign.

Its pretty much just montolivo and aquailani stories.

9, declared, actually. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) I wouldn't be surprised if he has a whole lot of extra dough stashed somewhere. It's practically impossible to have a few billions these days and not grow it. Practically impossible. Metal, technology shares, logistics, and whatnot. Rich people very often hide (or not declare) some of their money to avoid heavy taxes.

OK.... So the French media know what an Italian team is doing about a player in Germany... God what a fantastic job.

Milan will sign Montolivo in the final days and everyone will have a sigh of relief and thus Galliani and co will fool everyone into hailing our mercato as a one brilliant feat by master geniuses when in reality it was mediocre and disappointing.

Milan will sign 3 champions my @ss. So now they just straight up lie.
