Benitez might actually get to keep his job if he manages to win the EL and subsequently qualify for the CL, which seems likely unlike his prospects of avoiding the sack a month or so ago...

Berlusconi sell the 48% of AC Milan to Thai investor, Bee Taechaubol.

I Hope that this serves to see Milan on the place that they deserves, in the Top, fighting for all titles.

They've been shit for years. Just because they have a history of success doesn't mean they deserve to be competing.

Obviously not, I don't said that they deserves compete only for his history. I want to said is that a historic institution like them, accustomed to fight for titles, should be always on the top, he deserves a project, a players to make a seasons according to his history. Things that not happen on the last years for a shit of management of its directives.

I see what you mean now. However, if that were true to every league; Manchester United, Liverpool, Arsenal, Everton and Aston Villa would be fighting for the top spot every year.

When Mancini took over, he said he wanted Inter in a position to challenge for the Scudetto this season.

He's gone out and got Kondogbia and Miranda, and Melo and Montoya look likely to follow. Good signings so far for me.

Juventus have got rid of Tevez but Mandzukic and Dybala will surely get goals between them.

Whilst Milan have been linked to almost everyone and got no one.

Melo was always a good player... The world cup really messed up his career.

This is pretty awesome:

He's a bit of a nutcase to be honest. Could be a better player than he's shown though.

Since my last post, Bacca has gone to Milan.

and adriano!

AC Milan look as if they've made some half decent signings since last season. Diego Lopez, Menez, Suso, Poli, Honda, Cerci on loan and now Bacca, Luiz Adriano, Bertolacci.. building a half decent core to their squad. Still a long way to go though they need to keep a coach for more than a year.

Latest free kick maestro of old era is leaving. While he was never a part of Chelsea, he is one of those players you cant do nothing but respect. Kinda feel empty we wont see his magic anymore.

[DavidEU 2,023]

Looks like Jovetic to Inter is near enough done. Another really good bit of business from Mancini.

I don't think their squad is anywhere near the level of Juve. But they should really be qualifying for the CL next year now.

Milan are slightly behind Inter for me, but same applies.
