Will Galliani bitch about Milan's result? :tuttosport:
He bitched how Italian teams in EL are the reason for the bad coefficient. He was right, of course, but he seems to forget that in meaningless matches his team always loses points. The Italian teams see the EL matches as meaningless, so what's the difference between our results last year in EL, for which he attacked us, and what Milan are doing almost regularly in round 6 of the CL group stage?

Caring about EL :tuttosport:

Shambles. Galliani should fine the players.
I know I will. It was a pathetic game all together - slower than a training match - and Milan were in control even if playing like they couldn't give less of a shite.
I would have been fine with a draw if it hadn't happened in this moronic way - but to receive 2 goals in the dying couple of minutes :sergio:

My point exactly. He is a hypocrite.

what are you two ladies bitching about now :( ... you think he is happy with a shameful result like that? It's not his fault that Milan's players couldn't stay awake and acted like idiots at the end of the game.
Sure, Milan didn't field a starting 11 but the team was good enough and did well enough to bag the game ... except for the last 2-3 min, that is :p

Doesn't matter. Milan did field an inferior squad to what they could have fielded. Exactly what Italian teams in EL do. The reason for that is that both Milan tonight and the Italian teams in EL see these matches as meaningless. It's not like Udinese's second team plays to lose those matches in EL. They too give their best.
Galliani was bitching that the Italians in EL field B teams yet his club is regularly doing the same when they don't think some match matters.

It's right to criticize Italian teams for fielding second teams, but Galliani is not the man who should say it because it makes him a hypocrite.
Unless he criticizes Allegri tonight for not playing the best available.

Is the potential Tevez transfer a loan, purchase or loan with rights to buy?

Loan makes lots of sense. Purchase makes sense too, but at least one of Cassano, Pato, Zlatan or Robinho will be sold in the summer.

Not to forget their own results in The UEFA Cup, when they played there.

as I am sure you'd have said under slightly diff circumstances, like for instance if it had been about Juve and notMilan ;), Milan's so called B-team is still very good. The team Milan fielded tonight lacked only Ibra, Boateng and Abate- even Thiago Silva played, while Nocerino left the field with for precaution as he got a slight injury. Everyone else from the starting 11 on paper, who missed this game - Abbiati, Nesta, Cassano, MvB, etc are out injured.

Again, Milan's B-team - had it been their B-team that is - would still be a pretty decent and capable team to win you a game like this ... and even with their nonchalant behavior (by some players, not all) they almost did if not for the last 2-3 min of the game. And it's not like Udinese or Lazio lead other teams 2-3 goals up but end up with a draw due to carelessness at the end - these thins happen at times, and I am sure they've happened to Juve too. No, what Udinese and Lazio and Palermo do is they go out there with the notion of not being their priority to win the game, on top of not fielding nowhere near their best teams, given their B-team is pretty crap too as the quality of back-up players at these teams isn't exactly high ... that's what Galliani may have complained about.

again, that's not what Milan did tonight - they fielded a pretty strong team, which actually did the job until the 89th min, then stupidity happened, not Galliani.
and let's not be so free with calling others "hypocrites" 'cause Juve have and will be fielding inferior teams in such meaningless games themselves ... would love to go back and see your reactions from years past ;)

if this move does happen, it will be a loan + option to buy. Milan have said they will not buy him outright.

I'm almost certain it will be Pato, and it will be a pretty smart move from Milan if it happens. Pato is injured 265 days a year, he barely plays and if milan will manage to sell him for a huge sum (which they will with all the hype around him from their part) they will be hitting the jackpot with that move.

Another guess is that Milan already found an agreement with Man city to sell Pato for them in the summer in return for getting Tevez for a dicount ( thats pretty much how Galiani does his business almost every season).

Absolutely hate it when the two Milan clubs make moves like that, the way they take advantage over some of these stupid clubs is fucking annoying.
