Wasn't it already rumored that Barca was given 1st option on Pato when the Ibra deal was complete?

If so, then we'll give them another first option! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) Seriously, I am against selling Pato, but if we do I hope he does not go to Barcelona. Besides, RM has been one of his favorite clubs ever, so who knows. It is too soon to tell what will happen, and when.

You did not start to watch football yesterday, did you? Surely you must have a clue of who RM are and what their usual business is. I would not be surprised at all if Mourinho was fired tomorrow let alone in the summer.

Of course, everyone knows about Madrid's notorious practices of kicking people (players and coaches) away whenever they feel like. What I was getting at that maybe this time it will be different. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) If they get rid of Mou, then I fail to see how they can get a big name to coach them, not with the job security they provide. Pellegrini I feel was doing alright and should have been given more time, another year at least, but they fired him to get Mourinho in.

One thing I am sure of is that it is very hard to predict what that stupid club will do in the end. Your theory seems a much better bet (going by their past history), but maybe the RM management will try their hands at a little stability this time around, like ZD and I are saying.

Anyway about Mourinho? I think he will stay for another year. I don't know where else he'd go there seems to be this general idea that he will go to United. Who I think (think) Fergie will retire with not this summer but the next with Giggs & co. Can't really see him going elsewhere unless he fancies the German league.

Agreed. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I know it's Real Madrid, but it would still come as a surprise if they and Mou part ways just after 12 or so months. Remember what I said about Mourinho's teams always being comparatively weaker the first year he takes charge. It is only after a few years do his teams come into full strength.

Remember inter and their adventures with Liverpool and Manchester a few years back in the CL?

I don't recall Mourinho having a very public feud with club executives at prior places -- at least not feuds that have lasted this long. He's also getting stick in Spain for his typical antics (insults to other clubs, blaming the ref, etc) when his team doesn't do well (said antics having been deemed 'not worthy of the Real Madrid coach'). Still am far from convinced he'll be at Real next year.

Only if he wins the CL they'll want him to stay but then he'll want to go.

I'd like to see him coach a mid-level club in a big league. I want to see what he could do with them.

Probably rather well, if his owner gave him total control over everything and unlimited transfer funds.

I suspect it may not be quite so easy going for Mourinho once the financial regs kick in. He's been getting blank checks most everywhere he's gone (some of his big money transfers turned out well, some did not); this past January window at Madrid is the first time a club's really said 'no' to him. Adebayor was apparently waaaaaaaaay down on his list.

Same here. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) It would be worth following that team to see what he pulls off,

No, that's what I meant, a team with limited spending power. But then how far they'd go would depend on how good their scouts would be but I'd still like to see him in a low profile team over a long period of time.

hmm....some very interesting things have come up in the news recently.......


hmm...I guess i'll give my views.


Transfers........hmmm...

Big signings will be Ganso, Mexes a FB and a ST.

We'll spend around 70m this summer.

Where will the money come from?

Pato will be sold + reduction of contract fees.



As for renewals....hmm. Can't speak about all the players will but I can confidently say Pirlo and Seedorf will not be playing for milan next season.



Milan will look completely different next year. A lot more balanced than we are now.

As for mourinho...? He loses against Lyon he's sacked. If he wins then it becomes interesting.


Anyways, Ciao for now (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Hmm... chi zadi?

If Pirlo goes, I wonder if we will land Aquilani.

Juve has an option to buy Aquilani after the loan ends and they most probably gonna use it. But I'm pretty sure that Pirlo will renew with us.

Seedorf should go to MLS or something.

I really doubt Pato will be sold, at least not next summer that is... Blue I don't know where you get your crazy news from, I doubt we'll be spending anywhere near half the amount you mentioned whether we sell Pato or not

As for the Pirlo rumours, I think the club want to renew, the wage issue is the only issue, or the injuries are more serious then we thought as someone mentioned above. But I really doubt that Pirlo wants to take a step down in his career at his age, he's still young compared to our other midfield oldies.

All I want to see is Nesta and Pirlo renewed and Pato getting an extension to cement his place at Milan and give the kid confidence since he's clearly not getting it from Allegri. The others I really don't care about at this point. We need to move on and the old midfield is still holding us back from doing so.

Aside from that a LB, another creative mid and a trequartista should be enough to take us to the next level for next season

Blue was obviously high on something (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smoke.gif) (that's what I asked him in Persian)
