As you rightly said this
is a forum so the moaners have the right to moan as much as they want. Additionally, the fact that you have decided not to moan about our recent poor decisions would have even less effect...in the unlikley event that anyone from milan's management even gets a glimpse of this site, they are quicker to be moved from the passion of the fans than their apathy

The reasons for our inactivity in this summers mercato are numerous, and have been mentioned here ad infinitum, so I wont bother even sumarizing them...we all know what they were. Forget them if u like, ignore them if u wish, but they had a big part, might I say the ultimate role in the determination of our aquisition strategy |
Wrong again Mr Fantan
Every club has obstacles in their transfer strategy...."ad infinitum" as it were...and yet Real has managed to purchase most of the bright footballing prospects. Juve seems to have healthy links with the rest. Are we in a worse position than Juve? ManU was purchased this year by a tycoon who was heavily in debt at the time. ManU have still manages to buy the esentials to their squad and are still chasing other top rated players...so what exactly is your point?

Its important, despite Berluīs billions, to balance our books (and not via the Inter method), so the club can continue to function...so when we dont buy players, or we dont get the ones we prefer...sit down, and hug it up...or come here, and make post after post, saying the same thing, time and again...or go do something about it...like my initial recommendation

Doesn't it seem to you that Berlu's books are being balanced a bit too heavily in his direction?
Point taken about Abramovic's -ve influence on the transfer market...however Wenger has been buying shrewdly (read "cheaply") for years...with phenomenal results.....what about the other clubs who supposedly overspend like Inter and Real?? To date I haven't heard Moratti or any Real official declare bankruptcy.... and if Berlu's books are so well balanced, don't you think its time to show some ca$h??

Thought so.
Replacing Sheva doesnt come just like that...We gave Crespo back to Chelsea, as they would have wanted for him to be a "make weight" in the Sheva deal...and Crespo for Sheva and some money may not have been the best option for us
|
Actually you are wrong about that one. Chelsea would have sold had we negotiated better, but at the end of it all we told Crespo no because we thought Gila was the 2nd comming of Maradonna
. As for Olivera scoring on his debut, I can't picture any milan fan not wanting their players to do well...How does that relate to their actual performances and abilities?? If you had seen Olivera play prior to this you would have known that he would struggle across here because he simply isn't given the space he's accustommed to. And since our scouts didn't take the time to properly assess him, we are reaping the rewards for our shoddy preparation

There must be another drucurl on this site...this couldnt be the same poster I read a few days ago in this very thread re Ronaldo... ...plus, who knows what il phenomeno will do when he turns out in a red and black kit...could be another Rivaldo...or it could be another Crespo...who knows? I dont, and neither do you....So welcome Ronaldo if you do come, and good luck |
Comparing Bonera to Stam makes me doubt your credibility..I am quite sure that Peter Crouch Played MANY matches better than Pele'. Could Crouchinho hold a candle to the maestro?? HELL NO!! Bonera is slow, unlike Stam. Bonera also is reluctant unlike Stam who, right or wrong was always decisive. Also Bomera totally sucks monkeyballs on the wings, while Stam was a fairly decent RB .
As for ronaldo...he IS a wildcard.....I am backing him up 100%...but the facts are that of late he IS injury prone, and SerieA defenders go to town on all attackers. his talent is not in doubt..its his survival time in Iyaly that concerns me. Many times even recently I have seen defenders aim for specific locations on his foot..to injure. So whether he is strong enough to continue remains to be seen

Yup, and these fans, are all experts right? He is how young? 21? Does he have time to improve with all the great teachers he will have, from Cafu to Maldini? Ahh...yeah...hasnt played one real game for us yet, but: waste of a HUGE investment...stupid Milan management |
Other than Pato- Internacional ($10-20M), Nilmar-Lyon (~$15M), Klasnic-Werder Bremen (~$15M), Klose (same as Klasnic) Ronaldo-Real Madrid ($10M)
no one really comes to mind atm

I cannot say that I am not bothered by our inactivity, and/or our targets...but as I have said before...I will make mention of it, but not ad infinitum like many here do...how many times can you sit (or stand) and type the same thing, without feeling a little crazy?

As long as they screw up fans are going to complain....don't wives/ gf's bother us about the same things every day? OK that's a bad example...they are crazy
..But my point is when situations don't change, expect people to complain about them all the time until they are resolved or irrelevant
