Fishdoll has a transfer request:

Gasperini.

[whoarethepatriot...]

The Genoa coach?

He has done an awesome job with Genoa, but it also helps that their transfer guy is good and they get quality players quite often

Gasperini.

He's a great coach, very underrated.


He is reffered to in alot of my books on coaching. When they talk about italy they mention his name and Spaletti when they talk about coaches who can produce top sides with extreme limitations and etc etc and other practicalities.

i would love him especially because we can Criscito if he becomes our new Coach (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
We don't have a gasparini type squad though as we xpect to win solely on reputation and experience as oppose to hard work and pace, skill, tactics

Yoann Gourcuff will return to Italy with Bordeaux as they face Juventus in the Champions League on Tuesday night, and coach Laurent Blanc is glad that Milan did not persevere with the 23-year-old.

"Milan only look for established players, and Yoann was not initially in their plans," Blanc is quoted as saying by milannews.it.

"Things changed after the season in France, but the player did not have guarantees and didn't want to return to Milan and not play often.

"Only experienced players are playing at Milan - fortunately the lad stayed with us," Blanc concluded.

Gourcuff played some scintillating football with les Girondins last season, and has continued his form in the nascent stages of this year's Ligue 1 campaign.

Bordeaux go to the Stadio Olimpico tomorrow evening looking for their first win on Italian soil.

Tomorrow evening seven-time European Champions AC Milan make their return to the Champions League after a one-year absence as they take on Olympique Marseille at the Stade Velodrome.

Vice-president Adriano Galliani talked about this match, as well as about Ronaldinho and Yoann Gourcuff, the young French playmaker who was recently sold to Bordeaux.

"With Marseille it's already a direct encounter to qualify for the next round," he said to SkySport24. "The Champions League was a competition we missed, we're happy to be back in it again."

Ronaldinho's performances so far this season have been disappointing, but Galliani doesn't think it means he won't play tomorrow night.

"Even if I knew if he'll play, I wouldn't say it," he continued. "Leonardo makes the choices, not me or president [Silvio] Berlusconi. Let's not always talk about Ronaldinho, he's just one of the 24 players in the squad."

On the pressure being put on coach Leonardo, 'Uncle Fester' said, "Do you know what our coach said to me? That he comes from the happiest city in the world, Rio de Janeiro, so he doesn't feel the least bit of pressure."

On Gourcuff, he said, "I don't regret selling him. We have to start from the beginning. Milan believed in the abilities of Gourcuff, we bought him for €3 million, and sold him for €15m, we believed in this player. I also talked with him before he decided to go to Bordeaux. He said he was scared of becoming a reserve at Milan. That's the real reason.

"We understood who Gourcuff was when he was still very young and played for Rennes. Then he became an international player, not while playing for us, but at Bordeaux. I think it was a good intuition on our part. I would've preferred him to return, but he took this decision because he wanted to play, it's understandable."

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) Yes you read it correctly. Yoann was not brought back because the allmighty dinho would play 90 min every game and bring milan back to its glory.

Adriano in Europe in January

The Emperor has returned to Flamengo, but it seems that even if Adriano has finally found happiness and goals he still thinks about Europe and establishing himself there. The player’s agent Gilmar Rinaldi said to Terra Esportes: "It is too early to think about a renewal with Flamengo. There is the possibility that Adriano will be back in Europe as early as December, although his contract with Flamengo expires in May. Meanwhile, his intention is to do his best until the World Cup, not to interrupt this positive sequence. Returning to the national team has made him very motivated, it is essential that he continues to play well with Flamengo to be taken into consideration by Dunga".

We should go for him really, proven striker that can bring glory back to MILAN

Where would Dzeko fit in. But otherwise I agree, he'll probably be much better than Borriello. Plus he's ex-Inter.

Only thing is I would want him to have a touch psychological evaluation first. I don't want to end up having our entire transfer funds spent on buying Valium for the bloke.

[kurtsimonw]

I have respect for Adriano. I don't know how much he earns, but I'm sure it can't be that much at Flamengo and he's gone there to find his form for a place on the place to South Africa. He obviously wants to achieve. With confidence he is a great striker, I can't say who I'd prefer out of him and Dzeko as I just know nothing about the latter.

[Jack Sparrow]

Well theoretically they're different. Adriano is a brilliant target man,while Dzeko is more of a SS. Buying Adriano and Dezko would complete our forward line and we wouldn't have age impacting us for a good 4-5 years.

But I wouldn't buy Adriano at the cost of ignoring our Midfield and Fullback woes. We need one more creative mid, to act as a junction player in the mid-3. In which case our squad would be complete AND have options instead of being reliant on a stale Pirlo-centric 4-3-1-2.

Felt like Kaka 15 million to go to Il Giornale, Libero fears the collapse.


Webzine: La "campagna acquisti" di Berlusconi crea problemi al quotidiano. Webzine: The "recruitment drive" Berlusconi creates problems with the newspaper.
Fa scalpore la notizia - registrata stamattina dall'Unità - dell'ingaggio offerto a Vittorio Feltri per passare da Libero a Il Giornale: ben 15 milioni di euro, distinti in 12 milione di "premio" per la rottura del contratto con il quotidiano degli Angelucci e 3 all'anno di stipendio. Do stir the news - this morning signed by the Unit - the engagement offered to Victor Felts to switch to The Free Newspaper: about 15 million euros, divided into 12 million "prize" for breaking the contract with the everyday activity of Angelucci and 3 year salary. Una quotazione al di fuori di ogni regola per la stampa italiana e internazionale. A quotation outside of any rule for the Italian and international press. L'ultima rilevazione in materia risale all'ultimo governo Prodi, quando furono pubblicati gli stipdnedi dei direttori dei maggiori quotidian. The latest survey on this subject was last Prodi government, when they were published the stipdnedi of directors of major newspapers. Paolo Mieli, all'epoca al vertice del Corriere, prendeva 1,5 milioni ei euro l'anno e Ezio Mauro, direttore di Repubblica, guadagnava 500.000 euro. Paolo Mieli, the time at the top of the Courier, and took 1.5 million per year and Ezio Mauro, editor of the Republic, earned 500,000 euros. Nel 2007, poi, secondo Beppe Lopez, autore del libro, La casta dei giornali, lo stesso Feltri guadagnava "appena" 15.000 euro al mese, il doppio del direttore dell'Unità, ma una vera miseria rispetto all'ingaggio offertogli oggi dai Berlusconi (Il Giornale è di proprietà di Paolo Berlusconi, anche se tutti pensano che le scelte continui a farle il vecchio editore e cioè il presidente del Consiglio). In 2007, then, according to Beppe Lopez, author of the book, the caste of the newspapers, the same Felt earned "only" 15,000 euros per month, double the Director of the Unit, but a real misery over the assignment offered today by Berlusconi (The newspaper is owned by Paolo Berlusconi, even if everyone thinks that the choices continue to do the old editor and that is the president of the Council).
Gli Angelucci avrebbero risposto "invadendo" il campo avverso, con un offerta da 5 milioni di euro per Maurizio Belpietro, l'attuale direttore di Panorama, il settimanale di punta della Mondadori (sempre di Berlusconi). Angelucci would have answered the "invading" the enemy camp, with a bid of 5 million for Mauritius Belpietro, the current director of Panorama, a weekly tip of the Mondadori (always Berlusconi).


A Libero temono le (solite) conseguenze del "dopo Feltri" A Free fear the (usual) effect of the "after Felt"
Vittorio Feltri, si sa, è un grande direttore, perché è cinico e spregiudicato come nessun altro in Italia. Victor Felts, you know, is a great director, because it is cynical and ruthless than any other in Italy. E sa accarezzare la vena demagogica e qualunquista dei lettori che scelgono i suoi giornali. And you know stroking vein demagogic and readers who choose any of his newspapers. Linguaggio popolare, slogan semplici ("tutti ladri", "cittadini derubati" e così via continuando). Vernacular, simple slogan ( "all thieves," "citizens robbed" and so on continue). Ma che succede quando passa a un'altra avventura editoriale? But what happens when you switch to another adventure editorial? Non ci vuole molto per saperlo, per lui parlano i fatti. It does not take much to know, the facts speak for him.
I quotidiani ei settimanali da lui diretti, appena finisce il "doping" delle direzione di Feltri, fanno la fine dei soufflè tirati fuori dal forno: si afflosciano implacabilmente. Weekly newspapers and he directed, just finished the "doping" of the direction of Felt, make the end of the soufflé pulled out of the oven: sags relentlessly.

I suoi ex giornali rischiano di chiudere His former newspapers could close
A volte - come è successo qualche anno fa con un settimanale "storico" come l'Europeo - finiscono addirittura per chiudere. Sometimes - as has happened a few years ago with a weekly "historic" as the European - will actually close. Anche a Libero, allora, sulla base di queste esperienze precedenti, tremano, perché il boom di copie del quotidiano, rischia di sgonfiarsi non appena l'ex direttore avrà varvato la porta. Also be free, then, on the basis of these previous experiences, tremble, because the boom of copies of the daily risk of collapse as soon as the former director will varv the door.
Anche perché Feltri torna a dirigere Il Giornale (che dovette lasciare oberato di debiti, per tutti i risarcimenti ottenuti dalle querele per diffamazione vinte da Di Pietro) che ha un pubblico "confinante" con quello di Libero e quindi è facile che la nuova direzione - che conosce come poche altre gli umori dei lettori di destra - possa sottrarre copie al suo ex quotidiano. Felt also because returns to lead the newspaper (which had to leave burdened with debt, for all the compensation obtained by the libel suit won by Di Pietro) that has a public "neighbor" with the Free and so easy that the new direction -- who knows the mood like few other players on the right - to steal copies of his former newspaper.


A Libero bufera in redazione A storm in the office Available

Anche per questo gli editori di Libero l'hanno presa male. Even for this the publishers have taken to free the evil. Il presidente della società editrice del quotidiano, Arnaldo Rossi - come raccontava ieri Repubblica - l'ha praticamente messo alla porta, dandogli un quarto d'ora di tempo per sgomberare la stanza e restituire cellulare e carta di credito del giornale. The president of the company which publishes the newspaper, Arnaldo Rossi - as recounted yesterday the Republic - has virtually shown the door, giving him a quarter of an hour to vacate the room and return phone and credit card paper. Stessa sorte toccherà a Alessandro Sallusti, braccio destro di Feltri e al direttore generale Gianni Di Giore, che lo seguiranno al Giornale. Same fate will be up to Alessandro Sallustio, Felt's right arm and the Director-General Gianni of days that will follow him to the newspaper.
La direzione di Libero è stata affidata, intanto, all'ex direttore della Padania, Gianluigi Paragone. The direction of Liberia was entrusted, meanwhile, former director of Padania, Gianluigi comparison. Ma la famiglia Angelucci, che controlla Libero - colta di sorpesa dall'iniziativa di Berlusconi - parla di "direzione a tempo", in attesa di una soluzione più gradita. But the Angelucci family, which controls Free - caught by surprise by the initiative of Berlusconi - speaks of "time management" while waiting for a solution more acceptable.

I "servizi" di Feltri, graditi da Berlusconi The "services" Felt, welcome from Berlusconi

Già una volta, Vittorio Feltri era stato la "sciabola preferita" di Silvio Berlusconi, quando prese il posto di Indro Montanelli proprio alla direzione del Giornale. Once before, Vittorio Felt was the "favorite sword" of Silvio Berlusconi, when he took the post of Indro Montanelli own direction of the newspaper. Berlusconi, allora editore del quotidiano (passato oggi nelle mani del fratello Paolo) spiegò chiaramente a Montanelli che, al momento della sua discesa in campo in politica, non era più il momento del "fioretto", ma della "sciabola". Berlusconi, then editor of the newspaper (now passed into the hands of his brother Paul) explained clearly to Montanelli, at the time of his descent into the field in politics, was no longer the moment of "foil" but the "sword". Montanelli non volle piegarsi e fu indotto alle dimissioni. Montanelli would not bend and was induced to resign.
I recenti attacchi di Libero alla signora Berlusconi (alcuni decisamente volgari per tutti, ma non per il presidente del Consiglio) gli hanno meritato una nuova "promozione" del cmapo. Recent attacks Free Mrs. Berlusconi (some quite vulgar for everyone, but not for the prime minister), have earned a new "promotion" of the cmap. Che chi conosce Feltri assicura che al nuovo editore è costata cara. Felt that ensures that those who know the new publisher has cost dearly. Ma con la vendita di Kakà, qualche "spicciolo" per la campagna acquisti del Giornale sarà pure rimasto. But with the sale of Kaka, some "small change" for the recruitment drive of the Journal will also be stayed.

Milan kick off against Marseille - There's a three-year plan ready to help the club

Anyone knows what is that three-year plan about?

This post has been edited by Zed.D: Sep 15 2009, 11:37 AM

[Jack Sparrow]

Well similar to how Perez said Madrid would have to spend in one season, what they'd normally spend in 3...Milan are doing the reverse. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) We'll spend over three seasons what other 'big spender' clubs spend in 1.

The downside is that we'll have a wait for some time before having a complete team. The plus side is since we're picking and choosing our transfer battles...even having some time to lay the groundwork we'd have a much higher chance to win them.

Of course this is what I'm guessing.

It could just turn out to be some major new avenues of financial investment to bring the club back to it's feet again.

I don't see anything in their online edition, zeddie. Must be the print edition.

But that'd not be a "plan" (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) it'd be simply what the club is doing at the moment! moving at 1/3 of the pace we normally should be doing. you know, buying just Silva and ignoring what we need in at least 2 other positions, etc etc. I think and hope it's some kind of investment.
