I got really inspired by abeatty2209's thread on his arsenal try, so i decided to do this thread in similiar format. Hopefully i do a good job out of it.
Ok so this is my second thread after the one on Man City ("Blue is the better side of Manchester!")
Ok so i took charge of Milan as an Italian Manager called Giuseppe Russo. (apparently i googled for the most common name in Italy and i got this)
Giuseppe Russo
39 yrs old
Past Experience: Automatic
(All are in UK Pound Sterling)
Transfer Budget: 12.5mil
Wage Budget: 1.8mil P/W
But after budget adjustment:
Transfer Budget: 19,103,385 pounds
Wage Budget: 1,624,462 p/w
I'm spending 920,338 p/w currently (after all my transfers)
Media Prediction: 2nd
Board: Win league in 2 years
My Expectations: At least Top 2, hopes to win the league in 1 season
As you all know, in real life, Milan's old generation of players are fading off and are struggling badly. I decided to take Milan to revive them and start a new era.
So i took a good look at the squad and i decided it needed some investments. But because of limited budget, wasnt able to phase out all the oldies and i jus brought in a few without even selling a single player.
So i decided on bringing in a striker (because fat Ron was injured and Pato ineligible), a midfielder who could play left and centre (backup to Seedorf), a keeper (both keepers are so old and Kalac isnt really of standard), a central defender (the defence is really old with 39 year old Maldini still as first choice, and Bonera isnt of Nesta or Maldini standard)
And so these are my signings:
Mamadou Sakho (DLC)-350k from PSG
Roberto Soldado (ST)- Loan from Castilla
Mika Aaritalo (AMRL,ST) - 40k from Turun Palloseura
Tommaso Vailatti (MRLC) - 1mil from Torino
Vincent Enyeama (GK) - 1.5mil from M.Tel-Aviv
Julio Baptista (AM/FC) - Loan from R.Madrid
Andrea Barzagli (DC) - 10.5mil from Palermo
Soldado as an "emergency ration" in case aaritalo doesnt work out, and baptista, in case gourcuff isnt good enough.
Will post on pre-season friendlies soon and also screenshots. Gotta rush for dinner and bath for now.
