cuz inter would seriously choke if he leaves.
But it was he's choice to leave in the first place. Moratti tried to sell him and offered the guy to different clubs but no one was willing to spend big on him.

He's desperate for a move to spain (specially to barca) but they don't want him.

As talented as he is, but am pretty happy that he's out of our club.....

Serie A has wasted £2bn over the last 10 years through individually bargained television deals, according to a study carried out by La Gazzetta dello Sport.

Unlike the Premier League, every team competing in Serie A has sold its own television rights, leading to great imbalances.

Consequently, the big clubs like Milan, Juventus, Inter and Roma have been able to get substantially more than the other teams that make up Serie A.

In total, Serie A's individually bargained television rights have sold for £800m a year since 1998.

Things will change from 2010 when Serie A will adopt the Premier League model and sell its television rights collectively. Consequently each team will receive the same amount of money, levelling the playing field in Serie A.

According to La Gazzetta, under the new arrangement Serie A will sell its television rights for an annual fee of £1bn, meaning by pursuing the individually bargained model for a decade Italy's top flight has wasted £200m a year.

The big clubs have to some extent become dependent on these individually bargained deals and will have to change their financial structure from 2010.

Milan have already cut their annual wage bill by £50m through the sale of Kaka, Andriy Shevchenko and the retirement of Paolo Maldini.

The onus is now on Italian clubs to increase their merchandising and match day revenue streams.

This means building new stadiums, which Juventus and Fiorentina have already taken steps towards.

Correct on this (anyone).

Isn't that a bad news for Juve. Meaning we'll recieve less T.V revenues with that new system and Juve are allready depending pretty heavilly on those T.V revenues in the past.

This could be good for the whole league but its not a great news to the top clubs.

I believe you're right. Not good news for Juve, Inter and Milan.

But we have expected this to happen and therefore we rushed in building our new stadium, a move that has been criticized by many, especially on this forum.

Personally, I think the new stadium is in perfect synchronization with the five year plan and especially now where the real-estate is hitting low figures.

But even with the new stadium we still won't attract many fans and ticket sales will still be low.

I mean with the new stadium there would be a slight increase in the number of fans going to the games (just guessing probably around 30-35 thousands in average). Clubs like milan, inter, roma, fiorentina even napoli have more average fans.

The thing that comes to my mind is the difference between Real madrid and United. Even though the premier league generates Huge $$ and united are having the biggest chunk of that money they're well behind Madrid when it comes to T.V revenues (madrid are making twice as much as united) because the spanish system is similar to italian system right now.

Well it seems that out board is not competent enough to achieve a better deal for now.
We will help to strengthen the teams and the championship, that hate us and were glad to to see us going down to serie B. Even if that would mean the whole league would suffer a great deal...

It remains to be seen if our choices were optimal, or not...

Yeah, Real Madrid is head and shoulders above everyone else in revenue at the moment.

I still find it quite sad that we're gonna have a 45k stadium for one of the top clubs in Europe. It doesn't make sense. Especially since we have the biggest following in Italy. Every club that has built a new stadium recently has built a bigger one than they had before (maybe with the exception of Porto and Benfica, but theirs were 70k).

Were / are there really a lot of people criticizing building the new stadium? That would make no sense whatsoever.

We have the biggest following in Italy, but the home following is pretty low. There's no way we are going to fill a 70k stadium every week. Hell, we won't be able to fill the 45k stadium.
