Here's a question to you all: if Balo were to have a really good World Cup like in 2012, and his price were to increase because of that, would you sell him if someone came knocking offering +25m? And do you think we'll invest all the money in new players if we do decide to sell him?

If a offer of 25 plus million comes we will surely sell him but I doubt we will re-invest. Over the last few years we have struggled to invest and without Europe I doubt we will spend big money.

This.

I'd hold out for something bigger, if not keep him

Because as CMF said, I highly doubt we'll re-invest that money into anything decent. plus 25m is not that much. We either sign someone to fill the hole that Balo leaves or a bunch of average players if we do re-invest that

Or maybe we will promote Pazzini as our main striker, and get Matri back as sub. Classic Milan.

We can only dream.

Bronzetti and Raiola at HQ. Raiola will discuss about Balo and Abate, whereas Bronzetti is there for Rami. Looks like Valencia might be able to give us small a discount.

I'm still personally not 100% sold on Rami. He tends to space out a lot during games. Him and Mexes are a good duo, but I'm still not sure if Rami really is the CB we want to move forward with taking into consideration that Mexes could also be sold

As for the other 2 I seriously hope that we won't be selling Abate, that would just be utterly stupid, we need to renew his contract ASAP and assure him that he'll be a starter next season. And with regards to Balo, unless there's some great offer on the table, I'd rather keep him for now

He's not 100% reliable, but he's the best we can afford. Hopefully Mexes accepts to lower his wages and renews, so we can be set with Rami, Mexes, Zapata and Bonera. Neither of them are great, but neither of them are crap (well, maybe Bonera a little ).

Bonera tends to swing from greatness to cr@p at the drop of a hat, still a great guy to have in the locker room and for cover when needed

Add Ancelotti to the list.

Milan interested in Ancelotti

People invent all sorts of crap nowadays to ensure a few clicks.

Carlo imo is a no go.

His best years at Milan are past, and other top sides would want him

He wouldn't come here, for the same reason Mourinho wouldn't go back to Inter. They have everything to lose and very little to gain.

So, Berlusca said that Seedorf might stay...

Yes I read that.

So it does look like it's just that some aspects of Seedorf's management are under discussion and it's not like we've reached talks over his severance package yet

So today he's staying yesterday he was going... I think it's pointless to even try to follow what this fool is harping on about each day.

Run away Clarence!!

Run Clarence, run!

Something tells me Seedorf won't stay on to be the whipping boy Silvio beats with a stick when he wants to make headlines.

If this goes on, he won't have to get sacked, he'll just leave on his own.

As a rookie coach, my guess is that he will put up with some level of BS, at least for a while. My concern if he stays is the level of influence he will have during the transfer season.

Not sure how much we can believe, but I am happy to hear he may not get sacked after all. As I said before, Seedorf was not my first choice, but now that we have him and he has done reasonably well, I believe he should be given one more year.

Berlusconi claims he wants to start a new cycle and comments on Seedorf's future

I read this as a decision on Seedorf has not been made yet, they will meet after the end of the season and decide then.

Indeed.

Not sure about Negredo. 28 years old and IMHO he did not impress me at City. Hope it is just a rumor.

Done

Galliani said that we want to sign Rami permanently and we'll meet Valencia next week or something.

Ohhh, can't wait for the summer long saga that shall commence so we can reduce the 7m asking price Valencia have to 6m or even 5.5m so Galliani can pat himself on the back extra for getting an even bigger bargain

Valencia should just hit the door on his face. Either pay or GTFO! No silly mind games and other antics.

Galliani says Kaka will stay 99.99%

If I have learned Galliani-speak, that means that Kaka is on his way out.

That's the same percentage he quoted for Zlatan and Thiago

According to Tuttosport, we're going to offer €7.5 million to Valencia for Rami and Cissokho (who was in the stands for Milan-Sassuolo).

Seriously, does Galliani think there's a major sale or something? Is he even aware of the prices that are floating nowadays? Jeez...

Lady B said the club is going to invest. Let's see how much truth there's in that.

Personally, I'd rather see them solve the coaching issue first.

Ridiculous to say they're going to invest when they haven't even decided who's going to be coaching us next season.

Also, is this the Cissokho who we were going to sign years ago but failed his medical due to teeth?

I think the coaching issue will be resolved shortly, within a couple of weeks.

And yeah, it's that Cissokho.

I think it's a good idea to try and go for him, especially if we're going to try to get rid of Constant and Urby

DS, Cisscokho for the left

Abate, Bonera and DS for the right.

Nice options

how good has cisscokho been for valencia

Pretty poor from what I know. He was on loan to Liverpool this season and didn't play much. Maybe someone who follows the Premier League has more info.

I actually thought this was one of those transfers that I'm glad fell through. He's hardly featured much. And hasn't been very impressive.

I don't think he will succeed.

Robinho might play in the MLS, Mexes might stay. Galliani will meet Valencia on Friday for Rami.

Some good news at last

What if I told you that even with how little he has played, Robinho is second in our assists charts. One behind Balotelli.

That's just sad.

Am I the only one who is completely not in love with the team at all? I still support the club all the same, that won't change, but I have no real positive feelings for pretty much anyone in the team. None of the players scream "Milan" to me. Abbiati and Abate do to an extent, but they aren't like the players of the past decade.

Stand in line. I mentioned this a while back. It's going to be the biggest reason I don't get this season's jersey. There isn't one person whose name I want. Not even Kaka.

Somehow I did forget about Kaka'!

Yeah, Kaká, but watching him play in these conditions is just unbearable. It's like with Gattuso in his final season with us. The guy was completely useless and I just couldn't stand watching him play even though I've always been a huge fan of his.

I'd probably get De Sciglio or El Sharaawy. If I absolutely had to buy a ****, If dst blackmailed me saying he wouldn't talk to me otherwise.

I am with you guys to an extent - the soul isn't quite there with Milan right now, and the players, De Jong aside, are not up to the quality.

However, if you think you have it bad spare a thought for Rangers. I am taking a break from all things Ibrox due to the total civil war which has broken out. The soul there has been completely destroyed and I despise a great number of the 'fans' by comparison.

So, by contrast, I am thoroughly enjoying Milan. If a few coaching problems and signing issues are our major concerns, it's truly a blessed relief compared to problems elsewhere.
