ADRIANO GALLIANI has admitted that he’ll meet Manchester City for Carlitos this week, but has doubts.
There is no doubt that Milan’s primary goal is to bring Carlos Tevez to Milanello this January but the operation, as said by Galliani many times, is hard, given that City have already rejected the Milan’s bid.
Milan offered a loan with an option to buy at the end of the season, but City want to sell Tevez now. Galliani, who said today that the Argentine only wants Milan and “that’s that”, will meet with The Citizens this week.
Allegri: “One last push before the break”
Cagliari Calcio-AC Milan: The Rossoneri squad
“We have a meeting with Manchester City on Thursday, but it probably won’t be the decisive meeting with regard to closing the deal,” Adriano Galliani, the Milan chief executive and Vice President, told the Italian press on Monday. “It will be almost impossible for us to bring Tevez with us when we travel to Dubai.”
Milan are not expected to change their offer, but Uncle Fester, Galliani, has pulled off some remarkable deals before. PSG’s Leonardo also confirmed they won’t move in for Tevez unless Milan fail to sign him.
Galliani also confirmed that Catania’s Maxi Lopez is the alternative should Milan’s Tevez move collapses.
maxi lopez alternative to TEVEZ. seriously?
The real question is where the heck will Tevez play?
I’m thinking Milan might try to when need a more offensive line-up of Pato/Robinho – Ibra, supported my Tevez.
Using Boateng – MVB (maybe Flamini when healthy) – Norcenio.
I’m sure the move will go forward if it is the will of the player.
what about a top class midfielder?? as we currently dont have one. however, we have 3 great strikers..ibra, pato,and robinho…
please bring in tevez he is the real hero despite his personal problems
we need a finisher .. and he can do that very nicely.. but i do feel a good LB needs to be brought in..
Allegri said Taiwo had a good game last time. I think in a few months he will be adapted enough to really excel in the Italian league.
THere is a reason Real Madrid and various other clubs wanted his signature — he has talent. Give him time to adapt and he will prove his critics wrong.
No Gallaiani I wanna see him with the rest players in dubai and take a photo with him damn
I think leonardo is very loyal to milan, he is not a judas as people call him. Mr galliani, we need to spend more money if we want to compete with the likes of barca,real .etc. Pls stop this stingyness.4 God sake we need quality players. Forza milan
why waste our time on a player who has proven to be controversial and psychological imbalanced? Let’s go in for Ganso..This player over the years has shown interest in Milan plus he is a good creative midfielder. Let us not repeat Henannes mistake whereby we let the dude join Lazio after consistently showing allegiance to the Red n Black.
is Ganso overpriced and overrated? I beg to differ…we need a creative midfielder not a usually worried striker. Let us choose not a who just wants to play but rather a player who is dieing to wear the RED N BLACK.
I agree with Giancarlo, Ganso is overrated and overpriced. I would prefer Eriksen or Van Der Vaart!
US$ 40-50 mil for Ganso?? very overpriced. not over rated probably..
You dont pas*s on a player like Tevez for an overpriced overrated Brazilian. Ross23, we need Tevez. Ca*ssano is not available and Pato inconsistent.

He’s severely overpriced and ridiculously overrated. Not in any time of the Barcelona game did he make one decent pas*s. He was very poor. He’s not 40-50 million euros.
Clearly you didn’t see the game
Clearly I did. Santos and Ganso were absolutely embarras*sed. He misplaced several pas*ses. People are trying to sugarcoat his aw*ful performance.
I didnt say he played well, actually I think the whole team sucked. But I do not agree when you said “Not in any time of the Barcelona game did he make one decent pas*s.” He did 2 or 3 good passes that could’ve ended in goals if the strikers managed the ball better. Still agree on the overpricing and awful game.
actually what I’ve said is true. Ganso misplaced a bunch of pa*sses. And was very poor in the game. 2 or 3 good pas*sses? I don’t think so.
Watch the game again and you’ll see a couple good passes, enjoy.
Tevez? Great soccer player, bur really best than Cassano… I think that Cassano will return to San Siro, Tevez es olny a PROBLEM FOR US MONEY!!

More Attack?? Tevez ??
El Shaarawy is going to leave I think. Inzaghi is 38 years old and retiring or leaving. Seedorf is retiring. Tevez is needed. Your formation is not looking to the future. Tevez took a huge wage cut. We complain about Ibra not getting enough rest. Tevez would give him rest. And Ibra and Tevez would be ideal pairing up.
The one with the personal problem is Mancin@ Godfrey
It’s hard to change the willing,but if it is possible we better add something to complete the deal for the Milan success.. We beg you Mr Gallian.
i love you galliani :D
@ zion ganso who?????? Did you saw the barca/ santos game? Its a shame people never looks close at a player before wanting him. You just want ganso for just him being ganso…… Ganso is lame same as that overhyped arrogant punk kid neymar. Barca taught them the lesson of their life!
even lucas is better than ganSLOW..he is covers less of the field as my grandma would. Never defends, alway going for the spectacular but ends up fooling him self…TEVEZ?????? Now thats quality.
Ganso played different position that match… He looks stronger on ball, can hold it, has view, he built up his muscles… Sounds to me like a good replacement for Pirlo… Ganso has played some matches now in central and i was impressed… He can rotate, similar to Hernanes…
Caleb i understand everything u said but wait a minute u just don’t conclude on a players performance with just a match or selected few matches u’ve watched. Who thought Nocerino would be that good in the RED n BLACK jersey…he(Nocerino) even said after the SIENA match that he never thought he would come this far…well the onus resides within Galliani’s heads.
ganso is 15 million at most, but Santos will never sell him for that price. He’s not 30-40 million. Tevez is top cla*ss quality. He’s a guaranteed finisher. He scored 40 goals in two seasons and had about 20 as-sists. Please think about what you’re saying.
Ganso is 30-40 million according to Santos. Nocerino was 500,000 Euros. Big difference!
Nice 1 @celeb.ganso and neymer are just good on media not on the pitch.In the pitch,they are mere average players
@Cero – Antonini is an average player, Ganso and Neymar are great talented players, not much overrated, but surely overpriced..they are still immature, but possess great potential..Ganso 10-15mil., Neymar 15-20mil. – these are realistic prices..also Ganso isn’t a true No.10, he’s too lazy to play that role, he’s an alibi #10..what I would do is make him a new Pirlo, a deep-lying playmaker, as he has great vision, and excellent passing abilities, and also possesses solid speed (he’s not slow, and is tougher than Pirlo), he just needs to be encouraged to be more agressive, and run.. But if we… Read more »
Tevez will make our attack really strong!!!!
Ganso has skills but I’d prefer other players. (Pastore, erikksen, moutinho)
I think we should just play taiwo and give him the opportunity to improve and develop. Last saturday he probably completed more passes and crosses than antonini has in his while milan career. However I will admit antonini has been decent this season. He clearly has a lot of heart and love for milan.
im with Seedorf on this one. tevez only wants money. and milan is more about passion and dedication. i think 90% of the players on milan are true to that. the best thing to do would be to let el shaarawy play mid- to low-table teams for ibra to rest.
Many of you believe Milan does not need Tevez BUT those who think that are WRONG!
Ibra is the only consistent forward we have with 10 goals! Robinho and Cassano have 2 goals so far and Pato have just 1 goal!
Had it not been for Nocerino/Boateng/Aquilani/Seedorf we would have a problem scoring goals!
Tevez is a GARUANTEED Goal scorer who provides a lot of assists!
Tevez is a quality striker. He will replace Cassano for the rest of the season but more importantly can be used as a substitute for Ibra when Ibra needs a rest. Tevez is capable of playing the same role as Ibra whereas the other strikers are not. We should get him! Allegri likes Boateng as the attacking midfielder and so do i. He is not your typical or coventional player for this position, but he has improved so much in one and a half seasons and is fast becoming a world class player and key member of this team. Ganso… Read more »
what about hamsik?
Thought you didn’t like him?
Giancarlo I remember u being crazy for ganso….what happened?
Nope. I never was. Especially not with the price tag attached to him. I would have been in favor of his transfer for 20 million… not a cent more.
Maxi Lopez is ETERNAL MEDIOCRE and GARBAGE. why should Milan sign him? damn!
PH Ganso did well against Fc Barca,though he’s young but he’s still have a long way to go…am not saying he’s the idea man for Milan but i’ll rate him over Neymar (period)…
If anyone doesn’t believe what am saying,try and watch the ”rccap”..
Wish y’all the best…..
Forza milan…………….
I watch the game… and besides having one nice pas*s… he did very little. In fact he was totally ineffective. We can’t afford him and we can find better players then that.
hey red and black,
Why worried,listn…Milan hasn’t signed any player yet and mind u,the transfer market opens Jan1st and closes Jan31st 2012…
If i were you or others,i’ll wait until Milan sign a player b4 making any c’ment on it…who would thought of ”Nocerino”?
Can anyone update me on Ignazio Ababte’s injury?
Forza milan…….

i dont think Milan is even talking about him(PH
Ganso) anymore not even Rickky Montolivo….
But i’ll still wait and see what Milan are going to
do withing now till Jan31st….
Jovetic for great attckmidfied,..
Abate is not yet fit and wouldn’t be ready for today’s game, besides, Antonini and Zambrotta is back.
Leonardo stillove and respect Milan,weshouldnt hate him
How could you people be expecting ganso and neymar to shine when barca, the best team in the world(at the moment) dominated the game?
That’s because neither player lives up to the hype.
Some months ago I used to think Giancarlo was being unfair 2 Pato coz I was only looking at the team’s performance but after watching his game critically, I can’t agree with u m0re. This guy is VERY inc0nsistent. Tevez will be a huge boost
@giancarlo, i mean they should not be judged by that match. Both of them are promising players, with time and playing with experienced players, their true colour will be shown.
I’ve said it bef0re. Neymar is g0od, but n0t as pe0ple say it. He should be given time 2 grow. He’s as over rated as Bale
We need tevez. Our midfield too needs to be strengthen in order to advance to the next stage of the cl.
It just seems Juve is not serious about anything. They may be in “first” now… but they want to sign Borriello… who will be their next big striker. I wonder if they’ll get ripped off. They’ll probably get him for like 15 million or something lol.
Juve is just mediocre. Ryt n0w Krasic is b0und to leave them. They ‘believe’ in Marchissio
Pato is not inconsistent, he’s missplaced in formation… He shouldn’t play as SS, he needs to play CF… Just remember last season with Napoli, Inter and with Barca this season… Ibra was not around and he was our main man!
if a quality player is willing and dieing to play for u and also would boost up that department he would be featuring, what u do is u also show interest and try to buy him…sice KAKA left we have not had any correct creative midfielder…we watched Hannanes just pass through our fingers to LAZIO like solar eclipse. Tevez is a serious and quality player but has proven to be controversial and psychologically imbalanced.Our left back too is lacking seriously…where is Didac Villa?
can moutinho of porto play in the place of mvb as a defensive midfielder????
Nick I couldn’t agree with anybody more… Giancarlo has a point abt Pato, and the team is not selling him. Tevez is going to be a great addition to the team and our attack would be Pato and Tevez while Ibra drops in behind them, He handles the role of trequista very well… I also think tevez would be able to handle the trequista role effectively too….. What we need now is Riccardo Montolivo in as MVB and Ambro’s replacement.
Montolivo is not good enough for DMC position,and he will be join to juve,because president od fiorentina said,that will be sell juve instead milan.Galliani is said to him that will take monty from him for free ha ha ha ha
His style is completely different than MvB or Ambro. If he does come his best posisition is trequartista or somewhere on the left/right midfield. He might be able to play as a regista but as a DM I dont think he would suit that role.
yeah bro he can
@dApiT u are right bro then our attack wil be solid and effective i bet with 100goal per season
I don’t mind Tevez coming….he is absolutely world class, his scoring record speaks plainly – when a player of his calibre is available, you dont pass on it! Allegri is good at rotation, it will be little matter how many great strikers we have.
However, if we are building such depth up front, why on earth don’t we reinforce the midfield more? We could use Eriksen and Montolivo too, but he may go to Juventus – Fiorentina owner didn’t seem thrilled with our offers. Don’t forget a Merkel return is likely via an El Sharaawy swap probably.
Guys,milan must bring italian players,next year we will “notitalian” team.Starting line up:
————-Abbiati(I)————
Abate(I) Mexes Silva Taiwo
Aquilani(I) Ambrosini(I) Nocerino(I)
————Boateng—————-
——Ibra—————-Robinho–
Only 5 players will be italian.Any ambrosini will not be first choise,i hope will be sandro,who is brazilian.So only 4 players in first team,this is worry.
does anyone in this blog remember y Tevez got in this situation in ManC……..just bcaz Mancini put him on the Bench……so how did u guys thinking tht he will come to Milan for being Vice-Ibra…..if Allgri put him on the bench and plays Robi or Pato…..he will again make problems here……
i really hate this transfer…….
well i was against MVB transfer too…but he made me change my thghts….but Tevez will not…..
§(Y)§♥$~
Who says he would be a vice-Ibra? I’m sure if he does play like when he played at MU or his early day at MC he’ll definitely gain a starting spot and it will stimulate Pato to must perform better.
Tevez needed . He does drop out of games like pato n binho , scores more n assists more dan both . Monty has lost form . He hasnt played in a while . I tink fio want to spoil him . Btw monty sucks at cam . Dm wud b ideal for him .
Sohel , understand ur concerns . But he is willin 2 take a wage cut for us . Dat is not how a merc works . Ibra ,binho n cassano all had their ? Marks but dey worked out fine .
Guys palombo will join to fiorentina to replace montolivo,so montolivo will go to milan or juve.This mean that will be join to juve:(
We really need him! Why would he join Jube? We play the the Champions League!!!
Y shud leo wait ? Is he not a director too ? Its just futball . If it were d other way round will u call fester a judas ? Leo shud go for tevez if he wants to not waitin till milan fails . Tevez may end up in france after all .
Tevez can partner with ibra , spearhead the attack or play deeper . So those ppl talkin bout kpb not gud enuf . TEVEZ can play there . Ibra nids a break wateva shall we do ? TEVEZ can play there . Cassano is out n ibra needs a partner dat can score n impact the game . TEVEZ can play there . Enuf said .
