I think there a certain rule in most of the counties in Europe that "state officials" should hand their job immediately if there's ongoing official investigation against them. Perhaps that rule is applied at FIGC too.

Anyway, I'm a supporter of Italian NT and I don't believe this will be a huge blow. Criscito was a starter, but Balzaretti can do an equally good job than him, if not better.
Honestly, I think they are all involved, or the police won't search their personal items.
I swear Italian football never gets a break when it comes to bad press..
Siamo a posto cosi.
The only rubbish here is attacking a person for speaking out his mind. Haters gonna hate...
The biggest crime of Conte is his hideous wig.

What I am trying to say is that instead of focusing/blaming/cursing Ibra for what he did, the root of the problem lies within Milan. As I believe Milan is in one of the worse state we all pretty much had ever seen. I pointed out the other day, Maldini came out prior to the Golden years or during the Golden years of Carlo and said Milan should sign Lucio, and if he is in charge he will sign him.....then Galli came out and literally told Maldini to mind his own business and let him minds his own. You do not see Galli or anyone doing that now, whether to Ibra or Silva. Secondly, I also stated Milan players rarely complained about lack of quality on the team over the past 15 yrs till 2011, and if you take away the Golden 5 yrs, Milan only won 1 league title, never got pass the 1st knockout stage of CL, actually had to fight for the last CL spot and did missed CL a couple of times.

Maybe the internet helps deliver news quicker but we rarely see that from Milan players and we are witnessing them now. TO me, it shows something is really wrong in Milan.

As for Inter, well, Morratti never once came out and say they are a top 5 clubs in the world, or the best team in Europe....On top of that, Morratti hinted at rebuilding when they sold Eto. I think Inter is doing what Milan is doing, ie: seeing out the contracts of its veterans, and rebuild from the ground up once that is done.

No it's cool Gabriel, I actually didn't disagree with your original point, just had thoughts on how the issues should be treated (i.e. 2 separate matters). I agree though, there is an underlying problem here with Milan and this needs to be sorted.

I presume this is in response to me lol. Quite honestly you keep talking nonsense about double standards when I've repeatedly said how that isn't the case. If you're referring to hate against Ibra for speaking his mind, then all I can say is there are times when certain discussions are appropriate and others when they aren't. In Ibra's case it's the latter.

I thought it was hair transplant. Either way, you know it's a boring mercato when we're talking about somebody's hair Grinundwech

It most certainly is. Icon_lol2

Anyway, it seems that Juventus (Agnelli) and Conte will have a press conference at 18:30 local time. I suppose it is today? Then it is another hour to go.

Criscito has been removed from NT by the way. Maybe it is time for Conte and his hideous hair transplant Icon_lol2 to be removed from calcio once and for good.

lol I'm pretty sure I didn't ask about Papadopoulos

"Kyriakos Papadopoulos (born 23 February 1992) is a Greek footballer. He plays for Schalke 04 as a central defender and defensive midfielder." Young (20 years old), Greek, Schalke, and defender?

The only Greek in Schalke lineup so far. Are you sure you didn't ask about him? Sagrin

MILAN! MILAN! SOLO CON TE!

Hehe....dude, that was me who asked but you responded to his quote of my post ...anyway, i would trust football manager's evaluation of players more than the scouts who approved Taiwo & Mesbah
