from what i see happening to milan as the years pass by is that we are becoming more like inter was a few years ago and inter are becoming what we used to be a few years ago....inter had good players but had no depth to the team, they had there starters and no subs, went no where in europe and did ok in the league...where as milan dominated in europe and in the league because of their depth....they had players covered for every position plus subs. they had players in there prime, they had youth they had veterans and they had worthy subs on the bench that could start if rotation was needed.
Now you see inter has invested money wisely and taken chances spending money buying players filling in gaps, adding reinforcements where as milan want to keep the same team for season after season.
so mabe many big players didnt want to come to milan after the scandel, but last year we won the champions league ane people were asking milan to sign them, and still nothing....if you have a good team but know there are some flaws why not build an even stronger team for next season, ESPECIASLLY when you have the scouts the knowledge and the resoucers ($$$$$$$$) to do so!!!
to top it off, because of the managements mindset, players are getting too comfortable with their positions in the team and are underperforming. Why? cuz they dont wanna create competition in the team....whats so bad about creating a little friendly competition in the team? so it makes players take advantage of there playing time, make them show their worth on the pitch when they play so they get more playing time and have in there head if they are underperforming they will be subed off!
But mainly i think our management should stop being so selfish and keeping all the clubs money to themselves and start investing it into the organization and start giving players ultamatiums....either retire or go somewhere else for wasteing space in the team and taking up salary cap.
summer we'll get transfers man i feel your pain. Were undoubtedly gonna spend 100 mil this summer i can almost garuntee it.
