Surely u jest....

Vincenzo Morabito: FIFA Agent and Adebayor agent in Italy.

" There are very positive signs coming from the dealings of Adebayor to Milan"

"We hope the deal can be closed before the 16th of July"

I think he has peaked in Wengers system and yes he is good player don't get me wrong.But what is Milan really getting?
Our opinions are not stronger than ones of coaches,Wenger to let him go at the age of 23 is just something i would not like to deal with.

I don't think he's peaked at all. In fact I think he has enough potential... but the thing is, Milan needs a strong physical presence.

I was previously an advocate of Eto'o... if Barcelona reduce his price and off-load him I'd much rather see Milan go for him. But each player has his downfalls. Eto'o is a bit explosive when it comes to attitude... Adebayor as some say is a bit arrogant... Drogba is older and has fewer years to offer.

Who do we go for? That's the question.

I forgot:

"The sum of Adebayor's transfer the parts are talking about is way lower than the 45 M that were rumoured in the last few weeks"

That's rather promising. Hopefully we'll have him signed by the weekend for a much lower amount (maybe even lower than 30 million Euros). I think I was right, we got Arsenal in a bargaining position. They can't keep someone who doesn't want to stay, or he would be a cancer to the team.

Giancarlo I dont really have much to say to someone like you who has no morale, you talk about respect? well if 90% of MilanMania did not want me then I would know where I stood.

Coming from a guy who last month was begging god that Adebayor came no where near San Siro because he wasn't even a half decent football player you've changed your tune.

How do I have no morals (I assume that's what you mean)? Yes I talk about respect but I'm also a pragmatic person. I had a lingering distaste of Adebayor for scoring that second goal against Milan.

But I put aside this and stated one thing: I know he's a great footballer and I would be honored to see him wearing black and red.

I may have been distasteful of him because of that match, but that does NOT diminish his capacity as a player, and the fact that he is a professional.

I may have changed my tune, but it's on the recognition we need a player like that. I also had a different tune of Eto'o before, but I changed my mind.

I have a right to do that. But it does not diminish whether my morals or ANYTHING. I have a bottom line and that's the success of Milan.

I'm deeply disgusted right now. I put aside personal feelings and I only looked at the facts. We need someone who can put the ball in the back of the net.

That's right. Co-ownership deal worth £4 million for 50% of the player.

I'd like to listen to your opinions about :

from acmilan.com site -

Breaking news in english:

"SUBSCRIPTION CAMPAIGN: MORE THAN 12.000 SOLD
7/11/2008
MILAN - Milan's subscription campaign continues, as today almost 700 fans bought their subscription for the 2008-2009 season. Until 18.00 of today, the Rossoneri fans have bought a total of 12.427 season tickets (yesterday the figure was 11.739) for an income of 4.670.995,00 euros.

A year ago, in the summer of 2007,
in the same period two days before the end of the selling phase,
the tickets confirmed by the owners of the subscription

were 14.540 for a partial income of 5.192.816,00 euros."




I don't know ... there's confusion, I presume

one year ago, the tickets confirmed by the owners of the subscription were .... 25463, according to what AC Milan said !!!

" 27/06/2007 10.14.00
... omisis ...
L'attuale campagna abbonamenti era già andata molto fino al 26 giugno, ma l'ultieriore impennata di oggi l'ha fatta volare verso l'alto sia se la si confronta con la scorsa estate, sia con quella di due anni fa.
Ben 25463 Milanisti si sono abbonati ad oggi per il prossimo torneo.
Un anno fa, stesso periodo, erano 9623 e due anni fa 20213.
... omissis ... "


here's the path

What it happens?

VERY interseting topic! For real, and bears investigating and discussion...may I suggest a new thread in the discussions forum?

Thanks.

Gazzetta reports that Dinho has accepted a 6.5 million euros a season deal. Adebayor costs too much. Galliani will try to close with Barcelona.

Hassan...what do u think? With all the pressure, etc, and this backing and forthing....does it strike u that we are gonna try to get both Ade and R10?

Okay then I hope we get Pavlyuchenko... because Ronaldinho is totally out of form. Why are people here willing to settle for less?

What is the release fee for Ronaldinho?
