Yep. I used to be the fiercest Robinho supporter in here, always defending him when everyone else was criticizing him. But now the guy has fallen so low, I just can't fathom his presence anymore. The sooner we sell him and Boateng and sign a quality trequartista/winger, the better.

He's a CM naturally but he plays mostly AM. Good player technically, strong with both feet. Good passing and shooting ability.

If your expecting kaka, he's not it but maybe with time he can be pretty good. Not the best talent out of brazil but quite good. I"d say Ganso is better but at least this guy isn't injured 24/7

News:


-Various sources have come out saying that Felipe Anderson to Milan is close to being done and that Robinho is included in the deal. Milan and Santos could wrap the deal up in December and a January move could take place.

-Sneijder is heading for a january exit. Inter have told him he won't play until he accepts a pay cut which is an infringement on his contract. If it goes to court, he will have the right to walk away on a free transfer. Contacts have been made from Russia but he has declined them.


-Galliani has contacted Parma about a possible move for Jon Biabiany. No prices reported yet. We are in the market for wingers.


Berlusconi:

"We intend to build a new milan over the next 3 years. Buying players? Yes we will buy 1 or 2 champions for the next season. This new milan will be young so that the cycle can last a long time.


Guardiola? We will try to sign Pep, but it's difficult.
There are some English clubs after Guardiola, especially City who have directors that we know very well.


A swap deal including Pato and Balotelli? I don't like making exchanges.







-The owner of PSG has contacted berlusconi about a possible buy out of the club. Sheik Al Thani has offered a reported 500m euros for the out right purchase of Milan. Negotiations are set to begin soon as milan is currently in a favourable financial position for investors.

-Chinese investors have also contacted Berlusconi about the purchase of possible shares and sponsorships. Berlusconi has told the media that he will listen to all potential investors as he looks to pump cash into the club.

Sell! Sell! Sell! Sell!

Sell equity..sell equity...sell equity. Financial investment is the order of the day. 35% for 300 million!!

I don't like the idea of Milan owned by the Chinese.

Me either.

you mean partly owned?

and what are your(to whoever feels that way can answer) concerns? (I understand if there are any)

Eh, it will open up the next big frontier China for us. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy.gif) We can be rolling in cash, as a lot of Chinese people already love Milan (thanks in no small part to the classy players we've had over the years like Maldini and Shevchenko). Of course, they come with their own way of doing things, but I wouldn't say no.

Particularly if that is the last resort, and they don't have much say in highest-level decision making. 40% max.

Galliani said he will not be selling Robinho. Berlusca said we are not selling Pato and we are sticking to Allegri.

I believe 0% of what Galliani said and 75% of what Berlu said. Meaning Robinho will be sold, Pato is staying and Allegri will be kept until the end of the season and then he's out.

At this point it would be very shocking if robinho lasted past the January window

Galliani is the biggest liar of this universe.

News:


-Sneijder could leave inter in january and move to milan. Apparantly his wife does not want to leave milan and Inter want to get rid of him as soon as possible. However, berlusconi is not open to the idea as his wages are too high.


-Van Basten recommended a young upcoming dutch player to berlu who we could potentially try to buy in january.


Our approach will be younger players in the next couple markets.


-Galliani: "There will soon be a big surprise about the new Milan shirts. They will always remain red, black & white but I won’t say more." Rumors say our next sponsor will be Pertamina (State Oil and Natural Gas Mining Company') is an Indonesian state-owned oil and natural gas corporation based in Jakarta.



-Berlusconi:
“We will try to keep our books in order, as with this economic crisis in Europe we really cannot afford outlandish expenditures. The idea is to reconstruct a young team within a time-period of no less than three years that can lead to a new era of success. Don’t forget the team of champions was built with one big signing per year.”

I don't know; I'm all against it. I don't agree with China's overall policy, so it's a no for me on any occasion.


Hmh? New sponsor already? And new shirts? Why that surprise, what they're gonna make them more "Asian" so they can sell more or what?

I just hope it's not some kind of atrocity.
