At the end, great Sir Alex Fergusson made mistakes when it comes to judging players, let alone poor me, so no hard feelings there.
Avaiting for arrival of exorcist into our boardroom.

Any currency, 55 its such a bad joke. We have nobody in the midlle of the field. All of them are shit.

Didn't expect Tare to suddenly make us good sellers, no surprise just continued disappointment.

So...trying to sell Reijnders, Theo, Mike + 1 of Tomori/Thiaw. I saw a rumor today that Leverkusen wants Thiaw....but they value him at 20 while we want close to 30. In other news, Chelsea paying 25 for Mike and we want 30 (but other sources say Chelsea only wants to pay 10 or so due to the expiring contract. We all know Theo's situation....Saudis want him, but he's doesn't want them. He wants to stay in Europe but nobody in Europ wants him and/or pay for him.
We are a supermarket. Not sure who will stay at this point. Looks like everyone is for sale. The problem is that we are being held hostage by our own players. If we are going to be a selling club (not and IF btw, we ARE), then at least be a fuking RUTHLESS selling club. Stop trying to negotiate extensions and hold all these meetings with agents trying to reach deals, etc. NO!!!!!! When a contract has 2 years to expire...you give an ultimatum: 1) sign a deal before July 15...and these are the terms. No bullshit. THIS right here is the highest we can give. No games. 2) If you don't sign the extension, you need to find yourself a new club by August 31st....because we will sign someone else on your spot and you'll no longer be considered. DONE 3) if they stay, freeze them out of the squad (legally....meaning have them train and what not, but they don't play) That's what ruthless is. You do that once or twice, and you'll see that we will not longer have Kessie/Hakan/Dollar/Theo situations. Fuking weasels man. Agents and players. All of them. Wanna be a selling club? That's what it takes. You can't be "a family atmosphere" and also be a selling club. Same shit with Reijnders. Oh, you wanna go to City? Fuk you...price is 100m. Either bring it, or show up to pre-season ready to go.

I might just be dreaming lol, but how about these scenarios: (1) Swap Magic Mike with Donnarumma (2) Use Theo money (Atlético Madrid for 30-35) To buy Ricci (3) Sign Modric as a free agent (Apparently close to happening) (4) Use the money from Tiji’s to Man City to get Tonali in Red & Black (5) Ship Tomori + 20-25 million to Tottenham for Udogie (6) Dodo from Fiorentina for 20-25 million or try to use counterparts (Musah, RLC, Chuck etc…) (7) Get rid of the deadweight on the team like RLC, Chuck, Musah, Royal, Pobega, Okafor etc and promote our youngsters like Zeroli, Bartesaghi, Camarda, Troare, Liberali. Donnarumma Dodo Gabbia Pavlovic Udogie Modric/Ricci Fofana Tonali Pulisic. Leao Giménez What do you guys think?

Looks ok to me, why not?
The sad (sad is the correct word?) thing is that from your list 7 is the least likely, in my opinion.

Why don't consider keeping both Mike and Theo, who will try their best to improve their worth?
Not very good, but not the worst either.

They don't want to sign. Right or wrong, they have their reasons and they're looking after themselves. Perfectly fine. Which is why we need to look after ourselves.

With that said, not trying to pick apart what you posted, but I really don't think it's realistic. 1) Can't swap Mike for Dollar. Or more specifically, PSG can get Mike, but we can't get Dollar. After this season, he's likely to be the highest paid GK in world football, whether that's in PSG or elsewhere, i dont know.....but i know it's not gonna be here. 4) Can't afford Tonali right now. That ship has sailed. Newcastle won't sell for anything less than what they spent....which is close to what TIji is about to go for. This management will not spend that on any player, let alone one that we sold a couple years ago. 5) Tomori + cash for Udogie is perhaps realistic on paper....but can't see it happening. 1st, I don't know that Spurs want Tomori, but even if they did, Udogie seems to be very expensive. His own agent said so just a few weeks ago (something within the lines of "there is not a single club in Italy that can afford him" after this season). Now, I know agents talk shit and what not...but it's very hard for Milan to sign a well performing EPL player currently. Everyone we've brought in from the EPL has been struggling and trying to re-invent themselves (Tomori, Walker, RLC, Pulisic). It sucks, but the reality is what it is for us in 2025. 7) Lastly, as Reza said, this is probably the least likely thing to happen, sadly
