£12 + add-ons would be more likely considering our previous deals with Southampton.

£12m rising to £16m seems to be the general consensus. Hopefully, Jenkinson only goes out on loan. I like him, but after three seasons it's looking like he isn't really the standard to play consistently even though he has improved.

I'd like to see him become a O'Shea-style utility player, but I can respect him not wanting that...

 

[Scum]

It might only be a friendly cup match but fucking hell, Milan. D:

 

[Slizz]

Need to score that.

 

[3Sixty]

Milan looooooooool

 

[Sviatoslav]

Honda has become an even bigger team cancer than I remember. 0-4 in the first half hour. Damn

 

[wedward]

Yeah I guess, but I think the market is what it is. 5 or 6 years ago, we'd be buying Chambers for 2 or 3m. It is out of our character to spend that much on him, but from everything I've heard he's going to be worth the price.

Don't think he would have been that low but I see your point.

In general I think it's odd when fans complain transfer fees, especially when we have no clue what the budget it.

 

[TheLucifer]

City isn't even playing with their usual XI.

How great is that.

If we didn't buy him now we would never be able to buy him. His price is only going to rise and he is an incredibly talented player. I'm so delighted we've managed to get Chambers. As soon as he's confirmed I'll be getting me a Chambers avatar.

Adrian Lopez was already booed at the Estadio do Dragão after taking too many touches in front of goal. They drew 0-0 against Saint Ettiene in their presentation to the fans.

 

[Lambda Pie]

Alex is at Milan? suddenly, 4-0 makes sense.

I don't get it either. It's not our money, and I certainly don't think Wenger is sitting their thinking "Oh well I was going to spend 50m on this guy over here, but instead I'm going to buy Chambers." I trust Wenger for the most part when it comes to transfers. Of course not everyone he's bought has panned out, but for the most part he gets it right.

 

[Labadal]

Man, this Milan side sure looks improved after the Allegri departure.

 

[Freewheelin']

Just watched 'Oculus'. It has Karen Gillan, who does a pretty great American accent in it. Overall, it's not bad at all.

AC Milan News ‏@Milanello 6 min

July 31, 2013: Milan - Manchester City 0-5 after 36 minutes (Allegri).

July 27, 2014: Milan - Manchester City 0-4 after 26 minutes (Inzaghi).

Yep. 37th minute, still 4-0. Five more years and we'll be leading 1-0.

 

[Linius]

Eating a mango right now. All by myself. No one to share my mango with.

 

[cartoon_soldier]

Didn't realize Milan were this shit

 

[mellz]

Alex was great the last two seasons with PSG. Sure he had the world's best CB next to him, but that didn't help Luiz really. Alex > Luiz

 

[Peco]

If we don't sell Agazzi after this match then we deserve to be relegated.

You know, I'm not even sure getting relegated would be enough for Berlusconi and Galliani to understand how dead this club is. They just don't care.

 

[pappe]

They are only gonna play 1 half to save Milan from further embarrassed.

 

[Lightning]

This is the kind of excitement I like to see.

People need to understand the prices of players is increasing faster than the revenue to keep up with it. The longer teams muck around over a few million, sounds weird talking about millions like they are mere dollars, but you simply lose players.

For me overpaying is not really overpaying unless it's a David Luiz like stupidity as the market is heading that way.

This is Spurs biggest hurdle. Italian clubs the same, Germany teams, aside from Bayern, the same. Prices are out of control and it takes time to increase revenue to counter it.

Chambers is an excellent deal. Brilliant piece of business.

 

[jtb]

Chambers is a good signing. Debuchy is a bad one.

 

[Grover Cleveland]

THE COMEBACK IS ON

 

[TheLucifer]

Wait, Muntari is our captain? That explains a lot.

You know, I'm not even sure getting relegated would be enough for Berlusconi and Galliani to understand how dead this club is. They just don't care.

The sad thing is that you might be right.

 

[Xpike]

what the hell, 4-0?

 

[mellz]

the attacker breaking the offside line smh

 

[Mr Cola]

Can have De Jong please?

 

[The_Hitcher89]

Debuchy isn't a bad signing, just a downgrade



Inzhagi will be sacked by December

 

[Mr Cola]

Didn't Milan just lose to Olympiakos 3-0 recently as well? Ouch.

 

[Lightning]

Offensive wise he's an upgrade. Defensively possible downgrade depending how things go.

 

[TheLucifer]

You know what? Buy him. He doesn't deserve to play with this team or, actually, we don't deserve him. He had his best season last year, he'll have a couple more before he begins to play badly.

 

[Clegg]

Didn't Milan just lose to Olympiakos 3-0 recently as well? Ouch.

Well tbf we did just as badly last season.

 

[Frank the Great]

This is one of the worst goalkeeping performances I have ever seen. How did Agazzi get this far in his career?

Or did he bet money on the game?

 

[Mr.Marston]

LMAO

Wut

Sagna is much better in attack than debuchy

 

[Dutch Gronk]

I agree 100%, friend! I don't care where he goes, as long as he leaves Milan.

 

[3Sixty]

Seedorf pls.

Save this team.

 

[Lightning]

Wut

I don't necessarily agree. Sagna's crossing is shite. Odd good one, most don't get past the first man and he hardly tracked back after losing the ball. Cost us many times last season that.

 

[Salvadora]

What infuriated me the most last season was crossing into the box when no one was there.

Just why.

 

[Danchi]

I haven't watched Debuchy enough to say whether he's an upgrade, but I can't say I was upset when it became evident Sagna was leaving.

He certainly isn't better than Zabaleta at City. Not sure he's worth the presumably hefty wage to play understudy.

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

What infuriated me the most last season was crossing into the box when no one was there.

Just why.

Just trying to emulate Moyes's forward-thinking football m8. We'll take it as a form of flattery.

 

[Mr Cola]

We broke records last year, 89 crosses in 90mins, you cant teach that

 

[wedward]

Chambers is a good signing. Debuchy is a bad one.

Nah, not a ton of experienced right backs available for that price. And with this Chambers signing it becomes pretty clear that Debuchy is just a stop gap until Chambers is ready to be the starting RB.

 

[Lightning]

And the fact we have Chambers means that as soon as Debuchy starts to fuck up he'll be dropped. With Jenkinson there was no competition to put a rocket up Sagna's ass.

 

[Feorax]

Marko starts.

Dat front 6 doe...

 

[Mastadon]

whats the full team?

 

[Peco]

Playing for this Milan is not that big of accomplishment.
