19m on Transfermarkt, they included the second 4m in bonuses.

15m + 10m in bonuses or 19m + 6m in bonuses. Take your pick. Neither is the same as 15m.

I'm not trying prove any quotes are real. You're seemingly arguing they must not be (add weird to primitive). I don't have them bookmarked and can't be bothered. If you are, you look them up yourself.
i now found the issue for your making up of fairy tales. selective reading. we are making progress here

Who cares if Barella is an Inter fan. Chiellini was a Milan fan. Maldini was a Juventus fan. Iniesta was a Real Madrid fan. Modric was a Barcelona fan.

Who cares.
yes, its irrelevant. but i always found this one weird. how did it even happen? his own father is a legend for Milan, he was born in Milan, he was part of the club since 10 years of age. its quite baffling how he ended up supporting their biggest rival, if thats even true

Atalanta sold Kessie to Milan and Gagliardini to Inter on loan with obligation to buy. These deals happen all the time in Italy. Not saying Barella will be sold in January, just that it’s not unheard of if Cagliari are in a safe place in January.

meaning you only have 2 fullbacks, 3 if you count Cuads
IMO we should replace De Sciglio with Spinazzola, because Spina is more suited to the left side and we already have Cuadrado for the right.

id say Barza, since hes the most dispensable, but i doubt we do that to him in his final season. Rugani?
Hypothetically speaking, if we remove Barza from our CL squad, does he still get a medal if we win?

He did play the whole 90 minutes against Young Boys.

that obviously too. if we dont sign anyone, we still are one player over on the CL list, so someone must be scratched. only reason Spina was the one to be excluded is his injury, so he made the choice easy for us.

Hypothetically speaking, if we remove Barza from our CL squad, does he still get a medal if we win?

I don't think he does unless he plays a game, so maybe just play him against Young Boys or something.
i dont think so, since he wont be part of the squad technically. id prefer if he retired in the summer, but since hes here, he should be given the chance to win it. Allegri seems ready to use him as well, as the games so far have shown

"I have always supported Cagliari"

"I" =/= "My family"

"My family are all Inter fans" =/= "I'm a die hard interista"
He also says he likes Inter.

The piece also got posted in Milan and Inter forums, found when I was googling.
Milan fans think he's an Interista: http://forum.acmilan-online.com/showthread.php?p=2919380

So far, you're the one with a diff interpretation.


And I was replying to your saying how his whole family are Milan supporters. Where did you pull that out of?

No one said he isn't a Cagliari fan. He plays for that team and grew up there lol. But a lot of supporters of smaller sides also support one of the big three. That's not exactly uncommon knowledge.

And in your likely scenario of Barella joining us in Jan with Cagliari bending over and letting their best player go for that kind of a deal while potentially risking relegation, with Barella suddenly changing his mind about Cagliari and EPL and wanting to join us, what happens after we spend 40-50m on Barella in summer? Is he supposed to be our big CM signing who'll take us to the next level?

There are not many midfielders on the market out there who are:

1. Good enough to improve Juventus
2. Realistically available for January
3. Aren’t already bound to one team in the Champions League

Whether or not Barella is some kind of world beater remains to be seen. He is certainly very talented (if you’ve ever watched him play). Barcelona took a risk with Arthur and it looks to be paying off.

We desperately need another CM, and we need one who can play box-to-box. Why not Barella?
