Even more then the would-be/could-be analysis? Yeah, I get you

R7, no offense, but you're one of the worst Berlusconi @ss-lickers I've ever encountered. I understand that we, as Milan fans, should be grateful to the guy for what he's done for us in the past 25 years, but how you can stick up for such a sleazy mafioso is beyond me. I couldn't agree more with han that you're acting more like his PR person than a true Milan fan.

Berlusconi bought success with Milan. It made him look good. He doesn't need Milan anymore. He doesn't care about Milan anymore.

OMG OMG we're linked to Fabiano!!! (planet milan)

I think Fab would be great in an attacking trio with Ron and Pato...Plus if Leo decides to push him out wide he wouldn't do as badly as Huntelaar. hope we get Cisshoko first though

What's funny?

The fact Milan's state is driving all of us to insanity!:P

Oh, plenty of things. First off the news that we're linked with Fabiano (who's an average player on his best days), or the fact that Dru is presenting the story as it's still 2008 with Ronaldinho as a player, and Leonardo as the coach. But probably the funniest bit is the date he added to the end of the post to make it seem legit.

And the most ironic part of it all is that the poor guy made a mistake and had to edit it again - spoiled the fun!

Oh, that too.

Naah, I just don't buy any of these rumors. I'll wait an see, I can't get much worse then it already is, so I'm an optimist.

Lol I got the date format wrong...when I edited it the other edit message totally f**ked it up

Yup, happens, man. It was so good (and real) the first time around I save an image. Totally got me, I had to double-check the date to be sure. Thanks for a good laugh, nevertheless, bro. Sadly, not everyone will get the joke after the edit you made, but like they say:

Zapata will wear shirt #17.

At least we have a team with normal numbers.

And btw, all Zapata talk here

Hmh, according to Mediaset we've been linked with Bovo of Genoa. Would be a pointless signing.

Also, seems like Tottenham overtook the lead in the signing war for Niang.

Except for Robinho, Yepes, Antonini, El Shaarawy and Cassano.

That's because great players couldn't get good numbers because legends had them (e.g R99 (Inzahi9) and R80 (Dorf10))

Nowadays the heir to #9 might be anyone from Pinilla to Matri

Pato is number 9 already/now

So who is going to disgrace the #7 then?

maybe we just leave it blanc

If we buy Rossi, he'll get it, if not, I feel El Shaarawy will take it (if possible). That's a way to sell more jerseys.

You didn't know?

7 should go to Rossi or stay vacant.

I think Robinho should get it. It's his fave number, after all. Much better than horrible 70.

7 - vacant
8 - Nocerino
9 - Pato
10 - Boateng
11 - vacant

28 - Emanuelson
70 - Robinho
92 - El Shaarawy

don't like the 70 and the 92, and isn't 11 Robinho's favourite number? Hopefuly he gets it now, and then El Shaarawy can get 7 (or vice versa) so that I also don't have the see that slightly annoying 92 on his back --- oh, and I didn't mention Cassano since I expect him to leave, and I may mixed up 7 with 11 (unsure which one is Robinho's favourite)

Why do you highlight Emanuelson?

To be quite honest, I don't think Robinho has a favorite number. He wore at City and Madrid #10

Ouch.

Great. Would have loved it more if it had been zero tbh!

It's the only way that they fans can show their discontent

(Maybe number 11 were taken at those clubs.) Robinho were lots of different numbers, yes. His childhood hero Romário wore number 11, and that's the number he thus wears for Brazil as well. I don't know, I'm not sure either.

I mentioned all our attacking players, unsure why you single out Emanuelson now. --- Anywho, I hope Robinho and El Shaarawy get rid of their ridiculous numbers, and take 7 and 11 instead, don't care which by who

Eh, I knew typing my earlier post you'd be the most pleased with this, Han. Nevertheless, this is proof that neither the general public nor the fans of the club are as stupid as Galliani takes them to be. And frankly, only two weeks left before the show begins, let's see what the guys pulls out and whether he can lure in a 'champion'.

Wow.

I hope Berlu and Galli like that number.

Oh they do. 19,283 is practically their favorite number, or so I've heard!

unsure about using Galli as short for Galliani, I think we all know why

and yes, it's all about lowering the wage bill (a lot) nowadays, because Galliani didn't manage it properly before; we now pay the bill for that, and that is going to hurt (a lot)

I've read that Robinho's favorite number is 7. He's been wearing it at Brazil for the past couple of years, and it's also the reason why he chose 70 with us, since 7 was occupied by Pato then. No idea why he's still sticking with 70 now that 7 is free.

ye, he wears 7 too/now for Bazil, forgot to add that, I guess since that's more recently, and also because he chose 70 (which has to do with wanting 7), it must be 7 and not 11 - and it makes indeed no sense keeping 70 when 7 is up for grabs - Robinho 7, Nocerino 8, Pato 9, Boateng 10, El Shaarawy 11 - our best goalscorers in a row - assuming Cassano leaves, and ignoring a potential signing

season ticket holders? or attendance?

Very bad indeed



Season tickets .. and out of those 19K only 72 asked to be reimbursed

oh ok the number is normal in my opinion.


We just don't offer the brand of football that people would dish out 1000s of euros every season to come watch every home game. Our business model is based on winning and financial stability, not entertainment value.

lol, why the smiley?

It confuses me when Emanuelson ends up in the same category, but I guess things are that way.

Well, Emanuelson has been a leftback, a midfielder and a leftwinger over the years, and since leftwingers usually wear 11, I mentioned him as well, and by saying I don't like El Shaarawy's and Robinho's numbers it was implied I'm okay with Emanuelson having 28. And since I also listed Nocerino (though mostly to have everything from 7 to 11 mentioned) and Boateng, why not Emanuelson as well...

Emanuelson can be put in different categories.

It was 31k last year.

I think it could get back to pretty close to that if we make a couple decent signings over the next two weeks.

I don't know why. I just wasn't in the mood to type his name fully.

Because of the coaches/players we had named Galli? Or?

I thought Galli was a slang for something unpleasant

come on

Filippo Galli

played like 200 games for Milan, and is now assistent coach at our beloved club

I know him!! but it didn't even cross my mind. Galli and Berlu can only mean one thing.
