I tried but it said I had to spread some around

... no +reps for you for the next week or so
it was a done deal, as you can see from Galliani's words, but City tried to include a clause Milan didn't agree to when the teams were already exchanging documents for the transfer. Galliani got pissed and registered Maxi ... he didn't bash City so as to keep the relations between the clubs in good shape.
Anyways, it's not over yet and by that I don't mean next summer - Milan had Maxi even before today, which means they didn't mind signing both (with Pippo on the way out, Pato injured and Tevez about 1.5-2 months away from good conditioning) ... Maxi is just to make a point ... keep in mind there is 3-4 days of mercato left.
And I am not a jinx

- yesterday, with everyone racing to "announce" Nainggolan to Juve, I told Mark exactly the opposite, which understandably caused some laughs ...
and today the news is quite different, isn't it ... well, you do the math
