Summer Mercato

ok people, this is getting annoying.

I think it's time to stop repeating the same stuff over and over again in this thread. Believe it or not, lots of people reads the thread regulary, and some of them (including me, obviously) are growing tired of it, because some of you are having a need to say the same things dozens of times. let me give you some examples (please note that i have nothing against this people, i consider them my MM friends), these are only the ones i can think of in a minute:

dru - quaresma this, quaresma that
payne - moutinho is the new rui costa (he didn't say that for a few days though )
mrki - naletilic told galliani about modric blah blah
giancarlo - eto'o is the greatest man alive, i hate ronaldinho
warro - you're bunch of pessimists

and so on and so on...

we got it, you do not have to repeatit, we are not "deaf" (or, would "blind" be more appropriate?)

thanx

More Ronaldingo stories:

Seedorf: "Ronaldinho is no good for us because we have many other players for the same position," he said. "I think the team have other needs, but I am not responsible for the signings."

Ronaldinho: "Now I am thinking about working and returning to my level of play as soon as possible, it does not matter where," Ronaldinho said after the game.

"It was a beautiful story, everything that we conquered. The supporters will never forget it, just like I never will. Everywhere I go in Barcelona I am treated very heartily."
------------------------------------------------
I hope he doesn't go Olympics. If he goes there and plays well then his price will go up further. In fact, I hope that if we are certain of securing him, we should do it in two weeks time and put him on a diet and a fitness plan. In Venezuela he showed why he is still the world's best player but he is frighteningly unfit.

lol he looked so fat in that video but so good too. I know we can get him back to his best. I think that friendly will have increased his price

I think we will get Dinho, Ade I still believe is a smokescreen for now. If I were in charge, I would get another attacking LB or RB (Zhirkov) cuz we have Zambro. A classy and pacey experienced defender (Cannavaro) would do fine, but we also have a great defender in Bonera (as a CB, NOT RB)..just as long as Kaladze doesnt start anymore. An attacking midfielder a la Van der Vaart (along with Dinho, not instead). A strong CF with skill and finish, prefereably Brazilian to form a new trio with Pato and Kaka.

And how could I forget, a GK would be good too. Dida's prolly the best paid bench warmer in the world!

That was just a friendly. I'm not exactly convinced.

I've leaned towards Adebayor myself more recently... Eto'o is a great striker who we need. I never said I hate Ronaldinho. He's just not what we really need.

anyone heard on cigarini? has he signed anywhere yet... whats price talk on him

Gazzetta thinks Napoli are hot on his trail.

LOL, That was great Stitch! I'll tell you the reason why we are repeating ourselves over and over again. It's because we havent really signed anyone yet!! I know Zambro and Flamini are top players, but really I was expecting more than that, much more than that. I am still waiting for the new GK, the new promising CB, R10, and maybe a good 4th striker. It's starting to get frustrating now, checking the football news daily and hearing about teams like Tottenham signing this player and that player, and then hearing Galliani come out with the usual "Barca is an expensive boutique" or "We cant compete financially with anyone, serie a is doomed" crap...

I was obviously exaggerating, that's not the point of my post

once more, i do not want to offend anyone

Those words are purely part of the negotiation process. You still can't justify most of what you write. We've signed quite a few players already, and its getting frustrating because you have zero patience to wait until the transfer season actually opens.

The transfer season doesn't actually open until July 5th. Major transfers typically don't happen until that time. If by August we haven't signed any major striker, CB and a GK then you can complain to me.

Who is Tottenham signing exactly?

We got 5 new players in Milan's squad next season... so I think Milan is on the right track.

Who have other teams signed? Juve has signed Amauri, Mellberg (lol), and some 18 year old Swedish kid. Not exactly super active either. Inter signed Lampard (not yet official I don't think) and that's it.

Besides Hamsik and Domizzi I really don't like any of their players... but I guess I'm biased since that's a rivalry

1) It is QUALITY my friend, not QUANTITY. Out of all our signings so far, the 2 quality ones are Zambro and Flamini.

2) Don't tell me about patience. All Milan fans have been more than patient over the last 2 transfer seasons. The year before, we lose Sheva and get Oliveira all the while being told that Ronaldo was too expensive. Then last year Galliani blabs on about Mister X and we land up with nothing. This year, Barca have wrapped up some signings, Juve have wrapped up signings and are now stepping up a gear, Inter have picked up Quaresma and possibly Lampard---now that's QUALITY, while we keep blabbering on about R10, then Adebayor, then Etoo, then Berbatov---and nothing actually happens. If it werent for the last 2 mercatos, believe me, I wont be complaining.

3) Tottenham has signed Modric---who as Mrki will tell you is an absolute class player, the sort of player who should be signing for top tier teams like us, not a top 10 premier league team.
