Did he say that himself?

Real signed Neymar!Wow,for how much?

I tried explaining to you why, did you bother reading the rest of my post?

32 milion.

Lol,I hope Santos won't expect that for Ganso too.

Now THAT midfield lineup would be very welcome!!!!!

Milan: Kaka ready to return. Schweinsteiger the other objective.

So, according to Sportmediaset, we want Kaka' on loan for a season, with Madrid paying half of his €10 million wage. We'll wait till late August until Perez is convinced and agrees to our conditions. Our other, true objective is Schweinsteiger i.e. Mr. X. who apparently has told his teammates that he'll play in Milan next season. ( )

Normally, I would believe this. Sportmediaset is a very reliable source of information. But then I see the name Carlo Pellegatti on top of the article and I digress. The guy is a disaster at calciomercato.

They signed Neymar? when?

It's not official yet.

Well, Neymar is more known and hyped than Ganso...

It's all over the net, peeps.

Yep, I agree both about mediaset and Pellegatti. However, I could believe Schweini said something like that. He's ended up in a feud with Robben and some others guys at Bayern.

I still hope for Fabregas, but Schweinsteiger would be good as well. Cesc has more finesse, more creativity.
As for Kaka returning...I hope it's not gonna happen.

Oh, I didn't know that! Good for us.

I don't think it's a big thing, but it seems that at the moment Bayern is divided into two camps. However, it would me much easier to sell Robben the play with a long term axis of Lahm-Schweini-Müller. But we'll see.

I guess X-Off forgot to tell Neymar he was heading to madrid

Hey, I wasn't even the first one to post the rumor here, why blame me?

It was in relation to this condescending comment



In all seriousness, let it be known that i'm joking. This thread runs on the people who get to their keyboards quickest to aid those who haven't heard the hot gossip. We need all of You, Blue, D'Arc and on occasion myself to post the transfer rumors to keep us going through this strenuous summer.

Amen! Thank you all for the transfer gossip. Definitely keeps me going.

I agree as well, I don't get online long enough to catch all the transfer news so even if I don't post in here I use this to gauge whats happening in the market. Keep it up fellas

From over here there are still a lot of rumours that Drogba maybe heading our way for roughly £8m, any truth?

Though in today's papers he's being paraded as part of a swap deal with Spurs to bring Modric to Stamford Bridge.

i think he meant when he's done for milan the number 33 will be retired just like the number 3 is retired for paolo and the number 6 is retired for franco.

so he's predicting he will be a great for the club by the time he hangs up the boots

Oddo at Milan’s disposal

Nocerino will stay, say Palermo

According to reports from the peninsula, Genoa have bought our talented youngster Alexander Merkel. We still own 50% of Merkel, but he will be playing for Genoa next season.

Galliani: "I wasn't surprised when I heard that Barcelona are interested in Silva. He's the best defender in the world, so it's normal that the best team in the world wants to sign him. I saw all of this coming. That's why I renewed Silva's contract to 2016."

Galliani: "There will be a single purchase & it will be in late August."

Galliani: ( On El Shaaraway): "I'm glad he's a fan of AC Milan. We'll see if there is a future move possible."

Galliani: " Kakà won't return to Milan. 100%. Not even on loan, because the problem is also his salary."

Galliani: "Roma will definitely buy out Borriello".

Galliani: "I won't travel to Brazil to see Ganso in the Libertadores-final, because he won't be playing anyway."

I bet he said that with a grin on his face.

the man loves his left overs

Cheers man! You got this after I read another news article at another site.

Marca: Inter Milan have offered 30 million euro to bring KAKA back to Italy.

PAOLO BERLUSCONI: "Ganso is the new Kaka"

Galliani: “Bayern Munich’s Schweinsteiger? No, he won’t arrive.”

Legrottaglie: "I would have remained many other years at Milan"

F*CK YOU, LOSER!

Okay, this came out even worse than the phrase I was trying to understand. What I meant was: "Yeah, I got this after I read a similar article (that was written in much more detail) at another site, before you posted the message here in this thread". So yeah, in short you were right. And yeah, I know, what a cluster fudge.

And yeah, by the way, even though he was from Juventus, I kind of liked Legrottaglie while he was here!

I knew you'd react that way.

And as soon as I saw the article in the morning, I knew you would as well

We know each other too well.

All too well, I say. I miss the old days with big skirmishes here on Milanfan, but truth be told, the forum of today is quite boring with everyone agreeing or (respectfully) disagreeing. Where is the whoo-ha, the pizzaz?! X-Off vs. Fillipo is the best we got. But hey, it gets the job done.

Somebody please call back Giancarlo. I miss him! For those of you who don't know the guy:

RIP Giancarlo, August 5th 08 - Sept. 14th 08

Milan are very close to reaching an agreement with Genoa for the co-ownership of Stephan El Shaarawy.

I wish that if theres truth to the "late august" timeline, that G dismisses that. Any new player we sign should be here for the entire pre-season. It would be very beneficial.

+1, the activity going down is quite disappointing it's a shame some members have decided to stay away because their views have been ignored etc.

Jack V Kurt is always good fun about LeBron though (check the NBA thread for our entertainment ) ok I'm a mod not meant to spur those things on.

But yeah, a few new posters certainly wouldn't go a miss, been good to see a couple of newbies pop up and post of late, hopefully we will get a few more. If we sign Fabregas I'm sure we will "oi, cesc is rubbish we don't care, we have bendtner, come on you goooonnnerrrs" We enjoyed the Spurs fans didn't we

Indeed


Truth to be told, he's kind of a troublemaker.


Be careful what you wish for, cause you could get it...

[P.S. seems like someone isn't following the NBA thread closely]




Timeline? What's that a JJ Abrams movie we're in?

I thought the guy was a striker, but apparently he's an attacking midfielder. Good deal, we'll need him.



Exactly.

+∞ (infinity). And no further comment.


Kurt vs. Captain, this I can't miss. Will check it out surely in a moment. I'm so not into the whole N-Sports thingies, just a casual viewer if it is on TV. NBA, NHL, Baseball, and Rugby. Heck I have never even watched a full IPL (cricket) match. I think it's the franchises that turn me off, or maybe something else, but it's one of those things you know about, but never invest time, so much so that they get away from you. Totally.

Like I said as long as it is civil, some banter is always nice. The last one I saw was Danny vs the English, but that one died a quick death after Kurt decided to edit his posts (I was a few minutes too late there). LOL.


Agreed. It will be worth it just for the fun of attracting a few Gunner fans. Yeah, the couple of Spurs one were fun. Also agree on the new blood part, good to see a whole bunch of active new members. We need more of them, as much as we need the old guard back.


Most definitely he is, I was only kidding. But he's our best bet, heck I even had high hopes from Drucurl (who like a few other members mentioned in his intro that he was a hothead). Sometimes I think this place is cursed, most of the active users here are kind and understanding. And those who aren't keep their views to themselves.

But then again, that is a good thing, I never signed up for any other Milan/football forum, other than this!


Most definitely not. When I hit the "View New Posts" button, I actively don't open the NBA and other threads. Not because I don't like the sports, I am just not into them.


Nice. Beside, Abrams is a new favorite director of mine, always put up good stuff.

The ever-eccentric Zamparini: "Pastore's value now? His value has risen to €60 million".

Thank God we're not after Pastore. I'd sh!t myself if Zamparini would be playing with us like that.

Oh, nah it's Jack Bauer not the crazy-mod!

Yeah we have a few posters who commonly post about it, NFL gets a lot of love when it's actually the season, NBA/NHL more so in the play-offs but it's been quite dominant to the NBA side of things. Keeps the discussions varied I guess, to a point!

Anyway, I did post earlier but it was casually swept by, is there any truth in the Drogba to Milan rumours, I've heard nothing much on here about it just the Cesc, Ganso, Hamsik etc.

Oh him! I just call him Bauer, one Jack (crazy as he is sometimes) is more than enough!


Cool. And very true, keeps the discussions varied. For better or for worse, I can't join because I know diddlysquat about the sports (know how they are played, rules and everything) but teams and player details, no siree! It just doesn't float my root beer. I visited the NBA thread just now, and I almost had my head spinning.

But yeah as long as it keeps the forum varied and more importantly moving, it's all good.


I'd personally put it at 0%, in all probability. Just like how the Klose rumor turned out. I don't think Milan has (or wants to have) anything to do with him at this point in time. We have a youngster or two coming up, Inzaghi is still here, and frankly, Drogba is just not the player he was a couple of years back (trust me, I have seen more than my fair share of Chelsea matches this season).

I personally think Cesc is the guy Riola is working on. Ganso is what the club is working on. And that's that.

Ok, guys, I don't want to ruin this moment, but I think you're off topic.

Oh we know. In fact, almost the whole (footballing) world is off topic right now, I surely do hate the silly season and the countless streams of rumors and stupid journalism. In fact, the only day of transfer windows I do like is the last one. Sure, it's fun to see who goes where and for how much, but still.

Oh yes, sorry we were discussing something as well as Drogba, that people looked over before.

I do apologise though, anyway my mums, neighbours, brothers, sisters, aunties, best mates, nephews, nieces, dads, wifes, cousins sisters post man is a really, really big Milan fan and he was told by his taxi driver that Cristiano is signing a deal with us imminently.

I don't have a source, oh actually it's twitter.

Actually, in a way or another there are some of us who enjoy rumours . That's why they opened [Summer Transfers 2011] topic



Awww, it's cute how people react when they feel melancholic.

EDIT:


Oh and btw , all of rumors and news I've posted (which had twitter as source), got posted by sites like MN or TMW. I think that's a good way of getting information. I follow journalists that work for footballitalia, milannews, etc. They usually post news in twitter, than they post it on the sites, so if you have a problem with that, go to sleep and wake up in September, when transfer market is closed.

Jeez buddy I was only messing around!

I didn't mean to cause offence, I like reading yours, X-off's, Blue's posts it keeps us all updated when we don't have the time or the ability to translate/scour the web for transfer news ourselves.

Anyway, I agree Acid, about Drogba I wouldn't take him at all. Just don't see what he offers us, didn't we have this whole massive rumour a couple of years back about him?

nice
