@FabrizioRomano Excellent. It was much needed. 👍🏽 All the spotlight is on ZI now to deliver or he will be next. No excuses. More pressure than a UCL KO game on him and he has bottled so many of those KO games. His biggest challenge awaits. Deliver or out. 😬

🚨🔴⚫️ AC Milan have sacked all key figures at the club after missing UCL qualification. ❌ Massimiliano Allegri ❌ CEO Giorgio Furlani ❌ Director Igli Tare ❌ Head of Scouting Geoffrey Moncada

@JamesHorncastle Good stuff. Needed. 👍🏽 All the spotlight is on ZI to deliver or he will be next. More pressure than a UCL KO game which he has bottled many a time. 😬 Deliver or out. Enough of toying around with Milan for far too long.

Clean house at Milan. Allegri gone, followed by chief exec, technical director and sporting director nytimes.com/athletic/73070…

@Matt_Santangelo The pertinent question to ask is that how is an “Advisor” stronger than the CEO? How can an advisor who snitched & contributed to this still untouchable? He most likely saw how Maldini was fired & solidified his position prior to hiring with investing 10-15m. Can’t be fired IMO.

What has Zlatan done as an advisor, director or whatever role he holds to keep his job after this debacle? The man has supposedly so much influence and decision making power for all this, and yet he’s off to be an analyst for FOX at the FIFA World Cup for weeks. It’s absurd.

@Bonetti Except ZI who needs to go too. He can’t be part of ANY decision making at Milan. You don’t have one of the greatest bottlers in UCL history to handle pressure situations.

Milan is cleaning house. Everyone getting sacked

@tancredipalmeri You have said it so clearly here. If Milan and Juve don’t reach the SFs and one of them can’t win the UEL then they should feel shame.

La speranza è che Milan e Juventus giochino l’Europa League con ambizione perché potremmo vincerla ed è possibile noi si sia favoriti, anche se il timore è che venga trattata con fastidio e prima dei Quarti di finale tutti a casa

@tancredipalmeri Italia as a whole needs to do a lot for the upheaval of Calcio. Not winning the UCL since 2010 and losing four finals in a row is too much. Only Atalanta (UEL) and Roma (UECL) have won in Europe since 2010. Italia missed three WCs in a row as well. A lot needs to happen.

L’intervista di Gerry Cardinale a distanza di una settimana è ancora più disastrosa, e non sembrava francamente possibile. Credevo il primato per la caporetto sportivo-comunicativa appartenesse all’Inter 1999-2001, ma devo dire che il Milan di Cardinale è il peggio di sempre

@keralista One of my gripes with Allegri, ZI and Maldini are using their buddies in the press and social media to influence. That signifies their weaknesses so they need their influence circle to help and in return they get exclusives to further their own brand.

I wonder know who his buddies at the press will blame now ? It wasn't his fault at Juventus, somehow it won't be his fault at Milan either. Somehow I hope Napoli take him off our hands next season.

@Zerhida1 I’m no fan of Gazidis but the results and performances started going downhill since his departure, not since Maldini’s departure. Milan has never been a competitive team in the UCL since 2006-7. End of.

@HAMalik We can't talk about what might have happened or anything like that; we see the results and performance on the pitch. Milan with Maldini was a team, and it was a competitive team.

مالديني قبل نصف نهائي الابطال "نحن في لحظة غريبة نوعاً ما، لأنني أعتقد أننا لسنا هناك بعد، كما تعلمون، مع الأندية الكبرى، لكننا هنا (نصف نهائي). لذلك، يجب أن نكون شجعاناً وأذكياء بما يكفي لفهم هذه اللحظة، والاستثمار الآن للوصول إلى ذلك المستوى" تمت اقالته لانه لم يفز بالابطال

@Zerhida1 You are conveniently forgetting that Gazidis had the conversation with Rangnick that almost led to him appointing him. He wanted direct football, fast players, low salaries and high pressing. Maldini also needed Massara. Somehow he seems to take all the credit whereas it was all.

@HAMalik If Maldini's mistakes on a ridiculous budget can win us the league and get us to the Champions League semi-finals, then I love those mistakes.

@MilanPosts This is not an even an apt question. He should not even have been at the bench for the last two games. The players would have played more for Landucci to qualify.

🤔 Should Allegri stay or leave?

@acmilan This is what happens when the ownership was too weak to act and remove Allegri definitely after Atalanta. You pay a price and that price is no UCL and at least €50m in revenue gone. There is no space for Furlani, Scaroni, ZI, Allegri and Tare at Milan. It is what it is.

No excuses.

How many can you mention from these legendary Juventus players?

@MaxBambi7 @MChannel1899 Atalanta is indeed a world apart. I agree. My point is that there was a model in Italia which worked. The last Italian side to win a European final. What Milan needs is a confident personality as a coach with clear ideas. Not a scared coach like Allegri who fears to not lose.

@HAMalik @MChannel1899 Atalanta è un mondo a parte.

Il modello #Arsenal in #Italia non sarebbe possibile. #Arteta ha vinto il campionato dopo 7 anni di lavoro. Il mio editoriale su @MChannel1899 milanistichannel.com/editoriale-mil…

@ACMilanInsideit @Vergara1899 What did Juve achieve with Allegri’s clear ideas in his last stint there? 🤪 Did he come second in Serie A? Did he make the UCL SF?

🚨 #Milan, Allegri ha le idee chiare per il futuro 🔴⚫ Il tecnico rossonero avrebbe chiesto garanzie precise tra mercato, struttura societaria e competitività della rosa in vista della prossima stagione 👀 ⚠️ La qualificazione in #ChampionsLeague può cambiare gli scenari, ma serviranno scelte forti per convincere Max a continuare il progetto. 📲 Scopri tutte le richieste di #Allegri nel nostro articolo. #ACMilan #ACMilanInside #SerieA #Rossoneri #MilanNews

@rwilliams1947 Thanks for sharing. Excellent read. It rekindled the memories and joys of this glorious and deafening amphitheatre. 👌🏽

@FeliceRaimondo Galliani is responsible for the decade of darkness at Milan when Silvio got so busy with politics. He needs to remain as far away from Milan as possible. For Milan to move forward it has to get out of the shadow of its history that still looms large. Good call on Granovskaia. 👍🏽

Se rivoluzione deve essere, che sia rivoluzione. All'insegna dei "grandi italiani" (Cardinale dixit) e dei grandi manager sportivi dalla comprovata esperienza internazionale. Resterà un sogno? Pazienza. Ma nella mia testa questa struttura avrebbe molto più senso dell'attuale.

@Alezzzzio7 Galliani ran the club into the ground. He was the President, the CEO, the Sporting Director, Head of Marketing and Head of Sponsorships too. So many issues with accounting when Elliott took over.

@Alezzzzio7 He can still sort it out and resurrect the club. What is not talked about out enough is how Galliani destroyed AC Milan with his lack of vision and ideas to impose a decade of darkness on this club. Silvio got very busy with politics & refused to sell the club in his peak.
