Summer Mercato 2011
I am still holding for a signing or two by end of August but they won't be the ones that Riola has been working 8 months on.

Serie A is a mess, and unless teams start owning their stadiums, improvement of board casting technologies, better marketing, And the acceptance of foreign ownerships, it is only going downhill. TV and marketing revenue will only get better for EPL, Liga and German league. I really don't see how Serie A can get a slice of the Asian market with it's current products. I am not talking about the quality of the teams but rather the overall package. Such as scheduling of games, TV quality, star power, the game itself and rivalries. All these IT journalists should start writing rivalries among the teams or players or coaches instead of writing stuff like Milan can't afford Aqua or Monty.....
Write more on how Zamp hates Milan and that he was going to loan Pastore out with an option to buy to Inter just for the sake that Milan will never get a hand on him, or when Juve New players are doing well, it w actually Moggi behinds the whole thing, or the new Roma owner wants to challenge Berlu dominance by trying to sign Pato and Silva.... I mean most of the transfer stuff are make up anyway, why not make these stories up as a way to have more hatred among teams in order for a regular game in Nov to have more buzz.
Raiola has been working on nothing for Milan , he got his money from Ibra deal Villa deal and maybe Balotelli in a few years .
Too tight to sign Aqua and Monty that sucks.And I was hoping for Hamsik , Pastore , Ganso one of them of the impossible dream Cesc.
Now it seems Aqua and Monty both for 20 mil is a dream .
Ah screw it I have a job I'm healthy and happy enough.
I'll follow no matter what , just want Sept to cone and this speculation to end..also I'm off to Spain in Sept so double hurry up reasons ..haha

Yeah, no need to worry. It's just a game Okmilan
Yip football isn't a matter of life and death..ITS FAR MORE IMPORTANT THAN THAT..hahaha

Way to contradict myself.

Just listening to the radio there , Liverpool said that they in negotiations with Milan now to sell Aqualani they want 10 million and Milan so far have offered 6 and Liverpool have been told that is as high as they can go, not as high they will go but as high as we CAN go..they are willing to let him go for 7 and 2 million in ad on's..that's pretty pathetic really.

Looks like Galliani is willing to play it hard for every single euro.

Ah so it's been reported already.
Now 4 million is a lot of money.But he is with 10 million he really is.I think with do little to spend a million here 2 million there is the difference in us maybe being able to buy next summer.
I don't want to sound insulting but anyone who still thinks there is s chance of Cesc or Ganso or Hamsik would want to look at the figures and facts.
We won't spend over 6 for Aqualani or can't , there is no Mr X
.it's whoever is cheapest I'm afraid.

I think the Mr X tactic is so if we sign nobody for midfield , they can run the line of we were almost there but couldn't finalize it.He'll arrive next time.
I'm actually not pissed about it as I understand AC Milan don't have the ability to compete financially anymore .Barca Real ALL EPL teams and I mean all top to bottom , seem to have a money well.debt means fup all to them as the have there own stadiums with guaranteed money , even if they get relegated the stadiums are still full and the tv money is still high.

Well about this whole Mister X nonsense, the fact that after Shevchenko left our actual Mister X was Ricardo Oliveira, tells us all we need to know. Mister X is anyone they can get, or if none arrives it can be anyone they tried to get Sagrin

There is an interview with Boateng on goal.com, he has some nice words for Cassano. I remember Robinho doing the same thing couple of weeks ago. It could be a sign that the Milan locker room would like Cassano to stay, and maybe they already feel like he is also part of the Grande Milan Family.
Who wouldn't want to save some money but if I am Liverpool (or whoever) people and someone comes with such a low bid I will be laughing. Galliani has proven to be the best negotiator but somehow I doubt everybody else is so bad to go with it. Recent times Ibra and Robinho came for less than expected but if Galliani is expecting to find deals like that all the time sooner or later he will be disappointed.

If Galliani wants someone, he will just go and get it... These are all tricks, someone he feels 'if we have great, if we don't it's pretty much ok'

Everyone seems to forget we paid 10million for an 18yr old called al-sharawy... and that's for only half the contract...

Galliani has already moved for players he really wanted, now it's about the add-ons...

If the idea is to win CL, yeah he/we will be disappointed. If its 2nd star, then no, we are doing fine acquiring talent at minimal prices. And for the first time, I actually agree with Galliani that we are fine as is if I'm accurate in our (Milan's) true objective (ie forget CL). We should win Serie A even without signing anyone - that's how good we are compared to other Serie A teams. But I am certain that someone will come. Unfortunately (and this is where I get angry) all those posters on this site who had these big Cesc ideas ruined everything. We will get someone(s) and that player(s) will be compared to cesc and it will seem like a disappointment when in fact it will be a quality signing.

Come on guys, stay strong! someone will come as our LCM....
