Without commenting on the names, I'm at least satisfied that work is being done in the right areas. I was half worried we'd be getting one more striker.

I don't like the rumors one bit. This would be another restart. I'm getting tired.
Mexes, Abate, MDS are the few players that actually play good at Milan. Now we have the chance to build on that, but as usual, we decide to turn the page and sell in order to bring in questionable "targets". Don't get me wrong, Coentrao is a good player - but do we really need him? Alex is a fair defender, yet I wonder myself, wouldn't Mexes perhaps agree cutting his salary to €2.8 million per season? Because in that case, Mexes has the advantage: he's played for years in Serie A, he's been good for Milan and he has still something to offer.
Cerci and Fernando are okay, but not game changers. I'd rather we buy one player, but with true class or at least top potential then again buying all the usual rejects we can find.

From those names mentioned, I'd get Fernando and Cerci. Call me mad, but I think in defense we're quite covered. Abate, Rami, Mexes, MDS as starters, Zapata, Bonera and Emanuelson as subs. Maybe bring another average CB to replace Silvestre. Obviously Agazzi is a terrible choice for first GK. We should go after Perin or Marchetti. This is what I'd like to see for next season: Perin Abate - Rami - Mexes - MDS Fernando - Montolivo Cerci - Honda - Kaká Balotelli More than doable, and not very expensive, especially if that article about us having €45 million to spend is true.

QUOTE (X-Offender @ Feb 7 2014, 10:23 AM) According to Mediaset, we'll sign Alex (32) from PSG for free this summer (2-year contract for €2.8 million per season + option for a third year). We're also far ahead of Juve in regards to Fernando. Agazzi will be the new goalie. Our main objective will be Cerci, whom we want to get by selling Saponara to Parma. LinkThoughts? Alex might be okay for us for a bit (in a rotational sense), but similar situation to Essien if you ask me. I'm not denying that Cerci is an influential player for Torino, but I'm not sure how an actual winger would fit into Milan. Hopefully if one does arrive it adds something extra to the side, and moreover, hopefully if Cerci was to arrive he wouldn't suffer a similar fate of Gilardino (big fish small pond problem) QUOTE (X-Offender @ Feb 7 2014, 10:31 AM) Tuttosport says we're after Fabio Coentrao for the left flank. He'll cost around €10 million. We might get him on loan or pay his fee in installments. Coentrao on the left in order to definitely place De Sciglio on the right. Doria is our main objective in defense. LinkAnyone ever seen Doria in actual gameplay? QUOTE (X-Offender @ Feb 7 2014, 11:46 AM) I agree. From those names mentioned, I'd get Fernando and Cerci.

According to this article Fernando has signed a contract extension: http://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/spo...ew-deal-6686510I'm not even that familiar with him to be honest (but Im thinking I should be...) *shrugs* Btw, what 45mil?

Galliani was always the biggest culprit in the equation. He was the one who kept on insisting with Allegri after all. especially this summer when Roma wanted him, and he's the ones that shoulders the blame for our financial situation as well

Have a read. I think his emphasis on the FFP part was weak, this Spring we shall all know if FFP was serious or not. That being said, I agree, why should an owner shell in 60MM each season. If I was the owner, I wouldn't even consider buying Milan in the first place, burning 60MM every year just for a football game, I'd rather invest 60mm every year in Microsoft shares with their cloud computing and all (IMG: style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) Point being, this Spring the curtain shall fall on how legitimate FFP is and if the Berlusconi family is actually tightening its wallets or just trying to make the club FFP compliant.
