So there are reports that there will be bids for balotelli from arsenal and Tottenham.
Arsenal is suposed to bid 45M and Tott will bid lamela + cash....
Due to our lack of wingers (or money...) and having a proven Pazzo on the bench, would you pull the trigger?

Don't know, Pazzo is a good striker, but he's not someone who I'd count on to lead the line

45m is a lot, if I'm 100% sure that we'll re-invest that then yeah, I'd probably sell up.

Don't know how true this is anyway, Balo is a great potential, but he's yet to prove that consistently, add to that he's a huge head case that many clubs would be hard pressed to trust

I would almost go as far as saying, positionally, Pazzo offers a bigger box presence then Balo does, as he's always in and around the 6 yard area and rarely isolates himself on the wing.

It does seem as though Seedorf might be able to work with Balo, from the early signs, but we've said this of Mancini and Prandelli without much in terms of results.

This is a big year for Balo, a new player's coach, the prospect of missing out on the CL, World Cup year, new child, same tabloid following...

It's impossible to know whether he'd want to stay or not. I personally feel as though he wouldn't mind staying on for a year as I think he is happiest in Italy, but what goes through the boy's head is a mystery to all...

But why ....

What if you need to fill the void of no CL money, that void being losses?

What if the player himself started throwing a fit about leaving the club, because PSG or Madrid offered him 8M a season, net?

What if the player decides Milan is nice, but in order to win he needs to move to Juventus?

... But because

The news apparently came out on Bloomberg, though Fininvest denied.

I believe this is the best course of action, especially considering the situation with regards to FFP. However, I am a bit skeptical as to the incoming investor(s) and what their strategy is towards Milan.

“As evidenced by the recent purchases of Inter and AS Roma, Serie A and certain of its clubs are great brands,” said Chuck Baker, a partner with DLA Piper’s Global Sports Media and Entertainment practice, whose clients include AS Roma and Pallotta’s Raptor Capital Management LP. “If we can bring U.S. and other global sports marketing and merchandising strategies, newer facilities and an improved fan experience, the investments have tremendous upside potential.”


Hope for the best!

According to Sky we've signed Alex (31) from PSG and we're really interested in Adebayor (30).

Didn't want him ever since the 1st time we were being linked with him (back in his days at Arsenal) and I'm not interested with him now!

NO thanks!!!

Well put. I was the same when we were first linked with him. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sleep.gif) Another midranger.

Well, Alex isn't what we need but he's a good addition anyway.

i'd take adebayor, i thought he was excellent playing as a lone striker against, maldini,nesta,kaladze,oddo back in the 2008 game against aresenal + he's found his form again

what are our options anyway? balotelli will probably be sold.
Without funds, shouldn't we have scouts all over South America looking for talent rather than signing players past their prime on fat contracts

I'm not a fan of his, but he's basically single handedly keeping Spurs in the CL race this season.

No man, enough with +30 players! The only reason we're signing him is because his contract expires. Another free agent for Galliani's pleasures. We should go after promising youngsters instead, like Veltman or Dória, whilst they're still on the cheap. We have an aspiring coach, time to build a project around him. You can't do that with Alex, Essien and Adebayor.

That was six years ago! He's been a joke ever since he left Arsenal, and he's 30 years old FFS!

If we wanna go after someone cheap, I'd sign Immobile. Otherwise I'd spend some money and get Dzeko. He'd be the best solution. But first we have to sell Balotelli and make up the cash.

You know what I want. I'm actually all for 30+ players now. Just let them be fucking winners. Not these bunch of pansies we've got. Some people who've won something and have got balls.

Otherwise we can buy all the talented youth we want, but if all they have to look up to is Mario "I play more on twitter than the field" Balotelli then they're just wasting themselves away.

Isn't Essien that kind of player? Kaká too? Yet they suck nowadays. Besides, everyone knows Adebayor is a f*cking mercenary.

I've heard from a Madrid friend of mine that it's rumored we're interested in Diego Lopez and are looking to offer around 10mil for him. Apparently we've already contacted the player as well.

Thoughts?!
