https://twitter.com/repubblica/status/1473299455256535055 It is indeed all kicking off. Police has raided the offices of Inter and the italian FA to obtain documents regarding the weird transfers (same issues Juventus had a couple weeks back)

Lol that it’s rich telecom American Commisso complaining about inequality but he’s right. Nothing will change though; this is going to turn in to Palotta at Roma who just up and quit because he couldn’t deal with the insane Italian laws and financial regulations. Also Insigne got Covid; Wednesday is going to be a super spreading event.

Jose posted:It's all kicking off I'm a juve fan so welcome all the vilifying I rightly deserve. Anyway, it's interesting to see something like this where my understanding is that everyone is just hosed. Juve was absolutely scrambling with the super league to compete with the EPL and their literal mountains of cash, nobody owns their own stadium and COVID just wrecked all the finances forever. For Juve, they've gotten another absurd infusion of cash and now are being told in no uncertain terms that they're going to have to start making money on players again (RIP de Ligt, miss u already). I don't know how that could possibly work out for anyone else though (that doesn't have a billionaire owner anyway).

I think nothing can change here because the emperor has no clothes. Not like the italian fa is going to decide "yes, let's publicize how screwed all our clubs are."

I think you're exactly right; everyone is in the same situation and those that hold all the actual power (Juve, Inter, Milan, to some extent Roma, Lazio, Napoli) with respect to TV deals and everything else aren't just going to let it collapse without trying to cheat in every way possible first. In any case I think you'll find that Milan have no financial irregularities, maybe we can win the net spend trophy this season https://www.gazzetta.it/Calcio/Serie-A/Milan/21-12-2021/milan-accertamenti-bilanci-nessuna-irregolarita-430574342301.shtml

Not gonna lie, this just makes me think Milan is even guiltier. Juve's 100% guilty, for the record. Joao Cancelo looks good now but he was a rough bench player when Juve traded him and they got another bench player who then turned out to be good in a back three. Pjanic for Arthur is another uh.... thing? And that's to say nothing of all the smaller players that got traded. 10mm here, 10mm there all adds up. I love the comments section on that article. comment posted:We comfort ourselves with legality, sporting loyalty, economic sustainability and never raising our voices even after having suffered sensational thefts on the pitch.

Well yeah of course Milan as a society is guilty of something related to finances, the owners are like the kings of hell capitalists. I do bet we have better accountants and lawyers than most of the other teams precisely because the owners commit these kinds of crimes every day a zillion times with all their other holdings, and crucially, across international accounts.

This is definitely true. I'm curious to see how it plays out because it seems super hard to actually prove (vs. we all know exactly what was happening but...) at any rate but who knows.

Also, Catania has officially gone bankrupt; there’s a slim possibility that they will be able to play out the rest of the season, but it’s probably going to end the same way Chievo did. The years with all those Argentinian players and buck toothed Beppe Mascara were great. That was a fantastic team to watch, and when Simeone was there he hadn’t quite developed his “out oval office the opposition” style yet. It sucks that one of the two big teams from Sicily is in this situation. Hopefully they can do what Palermo did and start back up relatively quickly.

paddyboat posted:i remember him playing all over the place for milan (wider) and inter has slotted him in right where he wants to play (narrower) Yeah I think he’s better as a slightly deeper and more central playing creative midfielder instead of being a 10 or winger. It works because Barella and Brozo cover so much ground with quality, which basically lets Hakan be the ultimate luxury midfielder, and it turns out he excels at that. trem_two fucked around with this message at 04:38 on Dec 26, 2021 |

The government put out some new covid regulations to take effect in January regarding nearly every level of football. * 50% stadium capacity (down from 75%) * Negative tests 48 hours are no longer accepted, you need proof of vax or proof of recovery from covid in the past 6 months * All players at every level (including you and your m9s at 5 a side) have to be vaccinated, no exceptions. That last one is a big deal, though I think Serie A was close to 100% vaccinated in any case.

The deadline for Salernitana to be sold is a few hours from now; apparently the Not Lotito Family Trust has received at least two offers from individuals, and is awaiting another from some money laundering capital group. I imagine if they are real the league will allow an extra amount of time to get all the paperwork done. Must be loving infuriating to support them right now.

The holding group accepted an offer from Danilo Iervolino, a man most known for founding a fully online university in Italy, then selling it for a billion euros. This gives the team and Iervolino another 45 days to reach a full agreement and transfer of ownership, so Salernitana are safe til February at least.

The Salernitana sale was supposedly only 10 million euros, with the expected infusion of an additional 20 million from Iervolino to bolster the squad and facilities. In the grand scheme of things that’s like....practically free. Apparently Lotito is insanely mad about it which makes me wish it was 5 million euros instead of 10.

Roma did us a lot of favors and they probably should have had a penalty at the end but that game should not have been that easy for Milan. That center back pairing was terrible; Gabbia is a disaster and Kalulu is a much better fullback than a center back. Mou just didn't line up correctly at all, despite having nearly all of his starting lineup available. Awaiting the meltdown. e: Actually this is Maignan erasure; he had at least 3 incredible saves, including one right before the Roma goal and a few on plays that would have been called offside anyway.
