I'd welcome it with both arms. Niang is a terrible player IMO. He's completely useless: a striker with terrible accuracy, no feeling for the goal and a completely wrong attitude. Maybe he's a combative winger, defensive winger, call him what you like, but I'm all against such players.

Milan are in talks to sell Antonio Nocerino and Nigel de Jong to MLS clubs, as LA Galaxy, Orlando City and New York City FC line up. - http://www.football-italia.net/79159/de-jo...nd-nocerino-mlsThis would make me a very happy man to be honest. As for Niang, I would keep him, I am a big fan of him even though he needs to keep working on his shooting to be more clinical, but his pace and attitude are great. Would be a mistake to sell him, I'd much rather send Balo back to Liverpool by cancelling the loan.

I don't see a point in keeping a striker who hasn't got the most important components a striker needs.
As for NdJ, I don't get this. Why is he now sidelined? When did we cross him off? I still think he's our best defensive player, over Poli, Nocerino, Kucka and Bertolacci.

Yep, I find it pretty strange how 2 players who were essentially our best and most reliable performers last season (Lopez and De Jong) could suddenly just drop off like flies with no explanation and suddenly we hear rumours about how both could be sold for basically peanuts a few months later.

De Jong has officially terminated his contract and will most likely more to LA Galaxy
Really strange, just a year ago we chould have sold him for decent money to Man U and now we terminate his contract. Only at Milan...

As usual, it's a combination. I've been critical regarding Allegri, but I also never underestimated the big factor presented by Galliani and our overall strategy.
Thing is, he had his share of blame. I cannot tell if he learned or not, because Juventus keeps giving a high-quality team. Yes, he managed to excel. But the disastrous start of this season is indicative as well to me.

QUOTE (Forza Milan! @ Feb 2 2016, 12:02 PM) Probably the wrong place to post this, but Allegri seems to be doing very well at Juve ( link). In light of our recent record, I have to wonder if Allegri learned from his past mistakes or if his performance at Milan was impacted by other factors (management, players, whatever). Hard to excuse his second year at Milan, though (still had a semi-decent team and should have won that scudetto). I personally don't see anything all that special with what he's currently doing at Juve tbh, and you said it yourself, he should have won the title his second season with us but let a far more inferior Juve side take it right out from under his nose, he still had the best team in the league that season, he just proved that he was by and far not the best tactician during that season. I don't need to go into his following season and a half with us and the disaster that time turned out to be, the man simply had no answer to losing the player who made the entire team tick. And as Filippo said, his start to this season is also very indicative that his biggest shortcomings are still very present now, they're just very well masked by the fact that he has a squad that can basically steamroll the rest of the league without too much effort

Granted we have no counter factual of a universally recognized great coach taking over after Allegri left but all of our struggles since then suggest to me that our dearth of quality players is more to blame than coaching.
