though I am die hard milan fan and will support milan till last drop of my blood but frankly speaking this season milan will be stand up comedy……GOD help us
Apparently Berlusconi is furious that Milan are making a fool of themselves in pre-season again. Well… time to open up your wallet again, isn’t it Berlu?
Money makes money, that’s how it is.
Oh dear… I really hope we can make at least 1 or 2 more signings because I can’t see a competitive starting 11 in our future if not.
Nemesis
Forza Milan till I die.
This Milan club is average at its best. Our signing, planing, name it. We will struggle in seria A yet again.
I agree that Galliani is a terrible CEO, good managers succeed despite challenges. He has run the club down. However, this is pre season and players are still in holiday mood. Let’s give them the benefit of the doubt.
