Banter 2009/2010

People talked a lot about him in Brazil, but I never watched a game in his time at Atletico Mineiro. Good thing heś a EU- player.

A little off topic: Libertadores da America...
Internacional playing right now... and after the game, it's good chance to watch Jucilei playing in Corinthians game.
Also, NFL Draft!!!

There are some SERIOUS tapes regarding Facchetti and Moratti from Inter talking to Bergamo as far as I know. Tapes where they offer the referee's gifts and what not, much worse than our Meani tapes. Rumour also has it that there even are tapes involving a game against Anderlecht some years ago in the CL, which could potentially see them banned from the CL like Marseille was.

Anyways, the fact that there were 50-something recordings with Inter that were not presented in 2006 is shady, very shady. Let's just hope that they at least get their paper Scudetto revoked, plus having to pay financial compensation.

Please let this come to pass...

It is horrible to see the way Balotelli is not concentrating on the pitch. Its not safe to say Milan can help him play football of world class once he comes here. Still, Im all for buying Balotelli if that is possible. But that is NOT possible, lets be real and forget about him. Morratti is not crazy and will not sell him to Milan. ( but if Balottelli breaks his contract with Merda and comes to Milan he'd become my fav player after Maldini, hahaha! )

If Tottenham - Huntelaar is true then we are crazy if we dont go for Bale, a player that will make himname in the next 10 years of world football stage at highest levels.

About CB's, MExes is not playing at Roma, and Im 90% sure he will leave the club in the summer. That is the way Roma works lately. Only way MExes could stay in that Roma wins scudetto and he decides to stay for personal reasons. Others are Kjaer, Bonucci, RAnnocchia - all of them will be sold most likely, even D. Luiz. So once again there WILL BE players of high class that are on the market.

Also, noone in here mentioned the news that Milan will today ( I think its today ) "announce" the mercato budget for next year. Its expected we'll have 20-25mln only. IF that includes extra money from sold players then we could be maaaaybe ok if we sell good ( Hunter, Dinho, Kaladze, Oddo, Marek, Onyewu, Gattuso, etc. ). Still, with 40-45mln this team cannot be fixed.

Paolo said yesterday that there would be technical meeting held to discuss about transfer strategy for next season in a couple of days. He was also aware of the possibility of Leo's going back to Brasil because of family reason but he said that he would be "upset" if Leo leaves.

REALLY???? Damn it, and I was hoping he would come to Milan.

Here is an update on our coaching situation (no, it doesn't involve Leonardo)
http://www.footballpress.net/?action=read&idsel=58695

After reading this, I actually got to thinking, what would it be like if this guy does take over? Could you imagine Galli, a guy who has had zero experience working with the first team giving orders to the likes or Gattusso, Ronaldinho and Seedorf? Would anyone on this team actually listen to him at all or just flip him the bird? Interesting scenario.

Well he played 217 times in Serie A for Milan and has more coaching experience than Leo ,won a fewScudettos 3 European cup's so that won't be a problem i'd imagine .The problem should be is he any good??

What if he turns out to be better than Leo? Just looked him up, he looks fairly intelligent. It will be sad to loose Leo, it would have been nice if he could stay on in some management role or even as a scout. If its true that he has been offered coaching job of the Brazilian team then I don't blame him for wanting to leave.

The budget's come out and we're in 9.8 million euros debt. Galliani has said Pato, Thiago, Dinho, Huntelaar and Borriello will not be sold (I don't believe that statement for a second).

He also said we will not be like Inter and spend 810million in 5 years. I expect a much better budget than last year, but still nothing too earth shattering.

9.8 million in debt thats very little for a top level club , so we spent 15 mil last year. Im expecting about another 15 mil this summer + what we get for Hunter which will be 10 - 15 (i do think he will be sold) so we are looking at realistically 25 - 30 mil damn thats not a log and would only get you messi'a hair lol , but what can we do with that little money maybe 2 def and a mid I dunno its not much to work with....Maybe 3 Pastore/Jovetic type players not like they are now but before they came talented with potential.

The question is not whether or not is he better than Leo, but it should be why let Leo go after his first season, in which the whole world even Berlu and Galliani himself claimed that this is a rebuilding year and that Leo is the right man for the job.....just a year ago. If they do think Galli is better than Leo for the job, why didn't they ask Galli to take over last year? I mean not like he was coaching another top team at that time.

Personally, B & G just wanted cheap way out and a scapegoat or two every season. It is a complete shame that Leo is being look at the scapegoat now. And most probably, next year, they will look at DInho's and Pirlo's form as reason for failure. I hope Leo will do well in the future and there will never be another great Brazilian playing ball for Milan on the cheap anymore.

Ofcourse, who am I to complain as I don't own the club like Berlu does.
