A professional display. Happy with that tbh. Maignan barely had anything to do

After we scored we switched to neutral and only defended. Understandable. We have a very tight schedule ahead, no point in wasting energy.

Yep. Our CBs are just that good.

Agreed. Three trash games in a row for Messias, time to get acquainted with that bench. Alexis whom I don't like at all still brought much more needed energy and vitality. It's just his decision-making is amateurish at best.

Don't think we ever got out of 1st gear tbh.

CDK still needs to really gel with his team mates but that kid has a beautiful way about him, his passing and vision is great to watch. His first touch was a bit off strangely at times but aside from that a very good shift from him


Kalulu and Tomori are insanely good, especially for the way we play with a high line, they make it look effortless. Their speed basically nullifies the majority of strikers in this league.


Messias is a poor version of Suso. That's always been my issue with him. He's always cutting on his left foot, attempting shots instead of passing. Just not good enough. Alexis brings energy, more cover for Calabria and is never predictable, even when he's doing stupid sh!t, you never expect the decision he's going to make. With Messias everyone knows what he's going to do, and he's not particularly quick or clever about it.

If only the gods smile upon us and we make a last ditch move to bring in Ziyech

Milan have signed Malick Thiaw from Schalke. The player will arrive in Milano tomorrow - Di Marzio


Anyone seen this yet?

Looks like we were working in silence on this one. Hopefully a good mid arrives the same way. We've been linked to practically every available mid under the sun but it's clear journos know f@ck all about what we're doing.


Anyone know anything about this kid? I know he was once highly rated but not sure what the general consensus is now about him.

Thank f*ck a new signing. I have no info on him whatsoever, but I trust Maldini's judgment.

Still anxious about the midfield situation.

CB wasn't as pressing imo, but he seems like an investment for the future, and I trust the management implicitly with such signings

Malick Thiaw will join Milan from Schalke for ?10M+?2M add ons. He will fly to Milano today to complete the move.

Italian media saying 5-6m

Yeah, I know. I got that figure from this guy.

Yeah, saw that

If the budget left is really 10m, I'm inclined to believe the Italian press a bit more, I think we've left a bit for the midfield. Hopefully we can still get someone decent on the shoe string we have left. Maybe try for a paid loan and we pay the rest next summer...

Origi and Rebic out for Sassuolo. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

Terrible, terrible first half...
