Milan swiftly assembling a recognizable team

Thoughts ?

Should not make the top four unless they greatly overachieve and one of Napoli, Inter or Roma fail miserably

Don’t recognize any of these young Italian numpties but Higuain elevates them considerably. Do Milan have more money to spend?

Milan lacked goals last season. A lot of tight results. Maybe Higuain can push them over the edge. He sure as hell is a massive improvement over Kalinic, Cutrone and Silva.

Conti coming back could help too.

Their passing game will still be poor and LW will still be a problem.

Not really. First they need to sell Bacca, Kalinic and Bertolacci. Even the I don't know if they can spend.

Something curious is Caldara, Conti and Kessie. Milan finding a new identity in trying to be a mix of Juve and Atalanta

That midfield is horrendous and even if Conte comes he won't finish 4th with that disgusting monstrosity.

Yes, we won’t win anything that garbage midfield, meanwhile Inter have Vidal/Nainggolan/Brozovic, they are Scudetto contendors while we we are EL contendors.

If we don’t get a passer, we won’t amount to anything

Still, Higuain does elevate you. I just don't think it's enough to crack the top four but it is enough to make the team instantly more competitive

Who will be supplying Higuain with the goals? One trick Suso? Brainlesss Hakan? Tank Kessie?

Its a terribly collection of players with no one having complementing attributes

Higuain isn't a tap in merchant though. He'll score goals, he works hard off the ball and he is capable of making those goals out of simple movements. Just look at some of the goals he's scored for Juventus

Stop with this Inter obsession pls, Juve have won Scudetti with matchday in advance, let alone now after Cristiano Ronaldo signing
It won't be even a race, and regardless of Napoli, Roma, inter, Milan

so are milan back in the big time now or what.

No.

Paolo Maldini one step away from returning to Milan. (Di Marzio)

Romagnoli is confirmed to be the new captain

But Kessie (C) sounds better

Unreal disrespect to Bonaventura that he still isn't captain.

Maybe Bakayoko can find his Monaco form again, maybe Serie A will suit him better than the PL. Kessie is a good player and talented that's for sure, he is still only 21, I think he has a lot of potential. If SMS really comes then Milan will have a potentially great midfield.

guys stop hyping us ... that last year pressure of "no excuses but Top 4" got too much

Laxalt signed as well, he was great at the world cup for Uruguay, Milan are adding quality depth too

6th place heaven

Although i'd say they have improved in their depth and starting CF compared to last year so they definitely have a chance at top 4 especially after a whole pre-season under Gattuso

lol no chance, that's a painfully mediocre side

backline is average, midfield is utter filth and Higuain is like a diamond in a pool of sewage up top

at best we'll get a repeat of Montella's 2016/17 heroics with EL qualifcation

thinking about it..LaxOUT, Samu, Suso and Calhangolu may be the most depressing collection of wingers I've ever seen from a  prestigious team ffs

pray 4 Higuain

Castillejo might be a good player, but he gay af tho

Samu given the #7 jersey, ufff

Kessie (c) and Samu7 does have a nice ring to it

When Italian media sells you dreams of a Milinkovic-Savic deadline day transfer but you end up signing that lesbian Laxalt instead
