Anyone know anything about this Pasalic they're linking us to?

Offensive mid, could play as CM as well. Hasn't played since February due to back problems, still injured.

[Fillipo Simone]

Talented. Solid work rate, not sure about his creativity. Could be a nice add, but we'll see.

[Jack Sparrow]

He was a B2B for Monaco. I refuse to look at YouTube vids and be impressed. Anycase, I have no opinions on this purchase. He's a 3rd mid, so it's fine. I guess he's different to Mauri and Kucka, which is why he's in.

What brings you to that conclusion?

Strange you think like that, cos every report thus far indicates that we don't want to sell him.

Chelsea are pushing really hard for him, there are plenty of reports saying that they already made 30 million then 40 million + bonuses offer for him. We all know that when there is smoke there is fire and we know where this is going.

I am from those saying that we must not sell him at any cost, but (even though I dont) the managment thinks that his transfer would unlock two decent transfers and I dont see how they wont go for it considering we have no money to spend right now.


The formula for Pasalic is loan without option to buy, but Milan will have first option for the player if Chelsea decide to sell. #MN

Pasalic will arrive on a dry loan for €1mln. Tomorrow the player will be in Milan to undergo medicals. [DiMarzio]


If Pasalic turns out good, he will go straight back to Chelsea.
If Pasalic is a flop, we have wasted €1mln.
Lose-lose situation.

[Fillipo Simone]

I don't see this as a lose-lose situation. We needed a short-term fix and we got one. He's young and fresh, probably will do okay up until January when, give that he doesn't deliver Kaka-like stellar performances, we can forget about him and sing the real players.

Selling Romagnoli doesn't make sense. Bacca could have been sacrificed because we have strikers in our roster. But Milan is trying to sign two additional players, one of which is a defender. Why would we sell Romagnoli now? That would mean we're now looking for 3 players, two central defenders. And time isn't on our side as well.

No. If the deal happens, it won't be now.

Exactly.

It shouldnt, but I am afraid it will.

Not for the 42 million they're offering. Next summer, we can see, but definitely not this season. I keep repeating this, we have one of the best young teams in Europe. We have trouble finding the top quality prime players to fill in the gap so we can become a champion side.

It's easier doing the opposite - to have a top team and then fill in the gaps with exciting youth.

It reduces pressure on the youth to deliver. In this current team, we might unearth the new Kaka and label him a flop,because the environment to flourish isn't there.

Chelsea have made an official offer for Romagnoli last night (should be around 35 million + bonuses). Milan (i.e. current management) intend to refute it, but they first have to talk it over with the Chinese.

Hmh and huh... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif)

[Jack Sparrow]

Official statement has come out stating we rejected the offer. For 42 million GTFO.

[X-Offender]

Good. Chelsea can GFTO.

Makes no sense for us. We need to fix the defense, not break it further. We would have to find two (not one) decent defender (and we are struggling to find one).

[han2503]

We were never going to accept any offer for Romagnoli.

And if the Chinese are as ambitious as we were told they won't accept one in the future. We should be buying players like Romagnoli off of other clubs not selling him to the first bidder

I'm hoping that this winter the new owners really show their true intent and at least make one big signing. And show the footballing world that we're back in business and not there to be messed with which is our current status atm

Just shows how terrible we are at negotiating to sell our players. We're so desperate for any cash injection that we immediately accept the first offer. Juve are about to get 28m for an unwanted bench player while we were going to sell our best striker and overall one of our best players for 30m...
