Summer mercato 2009

Does anyone remember the joke i did days ago by putting a photo with Kaka showing him holding Real Madrid's shirt with his name?

It was just a black hummor......................... but as i can see its turning to reality.

English teams compile 3.1 billion in debt. What a disgrace

In my opinion having a debt is not a disgrace as long as it can be paid. What MU do to run the club for me is still better than Milan have done in these past years (having zero debt but with limited budget).

Certainly there should be certain rule to limit the amount of the debt (percentage of the debt to their asset) to avoid the bancruptcy of a club.

Berlusconi is not even pondering to sign any new player, especially in the fragile defence, despite the retirement of Paolo Maldini.

However, the Italian prime minister tried to reassure the supporters that they have nothing to worry about as Milan will be as strong as ever next season.

"I like Milan as it is," declared the Milan president to Sky Sport 24. "I think that with the great number of champions we can put on the pitch, we don't need anyone else.

"The Milan fans can sleep comfortably: we will give Leonardo a squad full of great champions, where we don't need any new players in the defensive department.



This guy doesn't even making me angry.......this is precious stuff

Berlusconi every day is turnig to a big circus, after his erotic scandals,his divorse, and now those idiot statements im starting to hate him very much.

He is not good for the club.He was, now he is not!

A squad full of PAST great champions like Ronaldinho.

We are big joke!
We sold Gorgy, we are trying to sell Kaka! And we are trying to keep R80!

Great, we are 100% a circus.

Berlusconi: Still no Kaka' sale.

Who still thinks Kaka' will stay?

I do not, but after today who does?

Something is not right.

Deep down inside i hope that this is all a mask,for real to get Cr7!

Maybe we should stop buying players and just focus on building a stadium that we own and meets world class standards...and in 5 years time we can aim to be back on top of the world...just a thought. If we stay at the San Siro we may forever be a "also ran" team given the way football is evolving in England.

Gazzetta says our replacement for Kaka' will be one of Dzeko and Toni.

Toni???????

So much Drama. People have the right to be mad here and I do understand that.....but we also need to calm down and think this through with a cool head rather then coming here and calling for Berlu's sell of the club because he will sell one top player in basically all of his time as a Milan owner. (I am not including Shevchenko because he himself asked to go for "family issues")

Slay me if you want for this.....but I am not ready to give up on a man who has given us 7 Scudettos + 3 2nd place finishes. On top of that has taken us to 8 CL finals and most recent one being just 2 years ago. He built the teams that did all this in the past 20 years, and argue it all you want but we have been the most successful team in Europe since Berlu has bought the club. It is true that we have had disappointing mercatos the past 2 years and the transfers have mainly not worked out except for Pato. But guess what....you win some and you lose some. Some years your are more successful and some you are not. Wishing Berlu dies (like someone said a few pages ago), or saying you won't support the club because of questionable summer mercatos and the sell of a player (Kaka)...is going way too far. It just shows how spoiled some people are with Milan. I would understand this kind of attitude if Milan started selling their best player every summer, but that hasn't happened. In fact that has never happened and this may be the first time it will happen. (again, I am not including Sheva because he asked for a transfer because of his own family reasons....or so he claimed)

I am not happy with what has been happening the past 2 seasons as well. I was one of the people calling for changes and the change of Carlo. I was the one that wasn't happy with Galliani as well.....but what I am reading here now is totally out of control. I am to the point where I hope Milan sells Kaka and then does a Barca where we run over opponents next year with a significantly youthinized squad and a new way of work. Then I'll see the people claiming that they won't support Milan anymore.

If you didn't read the article about the English clubs being in debt....go and read it. Then I guess you'll feel lucky that we aren't in that situation. Those teams are paying out loans to banks every year in the region of 40,50,60+ mil Euro. Berlu has been pumping money into Milan out of his own pocket for years. For years he had to come up with millions of Euros in the summer to break the club even and on top of that finance heavy transfers and bring in stars. Milan, and also all other top European clubs, rarely are in the plus. All these clubs are taking up loans and are in huge debts. Be lucky we are not one of them because glory can very easily turn into hell just like it did for Parma, Lazio, Fiorentina, Leeds....etc.
Like I said....for years the millions of Berlu have brought us to be one of the most successful clubs in the world and now I come here and read ridiculous statements because he is about to sell one player.

I'll leave it at that.......and I just want to say that I am not happy if Kaka goes as well. But I will look at the future positively and wait for next season just I have been waiting for all seasons for the past 17 years of supporting Milan.



In other news.......D'Agostino may be signing with Juve soon. I will be dissapointed if Milan is not interested in him cuz in my opinion he has been one of the best CMs in Italy this past season. He can be a great boost in the midfield and will not cost a lot of money either (shouldn't be more then 15 mil Euro).

First of all, that interview with Berlu, he never says "even without Kaka" that's just goal putting a random title in their story.

Second. If it was economical, Milan would have sold to Man City.

I go back and forth as to whether I think Kaka will leave. I remember Kaka saying how leaving Milan is a terrible decision (clearly referring to Sheva) and I remember that the last thing Kaka has ever said was that he won't leave.

I have to say, Gorky being gone has nothing to do with Milan management being terrible, it is done to Gorky being scared. Obviously the Milan management knew that Carlo was going to go, and I'm sure they told that to Gorky. If Kaka was to leave, Carlo too, then really the only reason Gorky didn't come back to Milan was because he was scared and knew he couldn't make it at the top level.

If Ronaldinho can be relaunched, then Kaka leaving is not so bad. But again, I don't think that Kaka will leave, it just seems that Kaka knows that there will be a circus, and knows that Berlu and Galli want a circus, he just wants to be removed from it.

Then the question is: Why is Kaka's father in Madrid?

I think the whole game is to make sure that contacts are preserved. If football was run by fans then players would only leave clubs when they became terrible. There is a code of conduct, and Galli understands this.

I think hearing about how the demands are insane, those are to offer Florentino the right to fail in his promise to bring Kaka, while Milan can show that they rejected great temptation despite economic hardships. It is a win-win situation.

Ask yourself this question, if a man tithes his income to his Church, do you really think he is capable of being that greedy?

However, the biggest indication to me that Kaka will stay, is that if he was leaving, he would have pulled a Sheva, and sat amongst the fans before leaving. He would have done something to show to the fans he loves them, after the Man City saga, he was beating his heart to show how much he loves Milan, so frankly, I really just see this as a circus that makes Milan the club it is.

Now many of you will say "I don't want a circus!" Well me either! However, I do know one thing, Galli is doing what merchants in my country do all the time when they are trying to sell you something. They say "Oh sir, please, we have no money, I'm selling you because I have to, just enough so I can feed my family" and then after he sells you the item, he jumps into his Mercedes and speeds away.

Milan is a club that likes to downplay its resources. Last season alone we spent 39.5 million Euros on Zambrotta, Ronaldinho, and Boriello alone. Not to mention the undisclosed sums we payed for others.

If Berlu goes out and says "I REALLY NEED DEFENDERS" then when Milan goes to buy a defender, then that club we want to buy from will charge us more, because they know we are in a place of desperation. It just makes logical sense if you take a step back from all the "reports" and realize what Milan always does.

For instance, when we were after Ronaldinho last season. Who were we linked with? Adebayor. He was on the verge of coming, we wanted Adebayor, he was the only player we cared for. Then, Adebayor is dropped and we snatch Ronaldinho for 21 million, and I'm sure the amount we got from marketing easily covered that fee. What striker do we actually get? Boriello.

So let's all take a deep breath and stop going through this panic. If Kaka says "I just want to say to the millions of Rossoneri fans that I have made my choice. I want to stay," and then goes on to say "I want to keep winning with Milan. I’m staying at Milan. And as of today, this case is over."

Sheva never said anything like that before he left. He talked openly about how he had to leave for his children. Sheva might've said he wanted to be captain years before he left, but he never said he wanted to stay before leaving.

So let's bring some focus into things and realize that while our management might seem, on the surface, crazy and without any understanding of the ways things go. The reality is that they are very much in control of the situation and are trying to go forward as best as they can.

Good posts Samaldinho and Nefremo, I to am tired of the disrespect shown towards Berlusconi.

Latest news though is that Zidane claims that Kaka has signed, perhaps it's true, but we all know Zidane is a dirty old Juventino.
