Joelinton7 Posted August 10, 2025 Share Posted August 10, 2025 (edited) Milan signing Koni de Winter as a replacement? @Curva Sud Milano. Edited August 10, 2025 by Joelinton7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dyeyzzon Posted August 11, 2025 Share Posted August 11, 2025 I like how many narratives in the mainstream have gone from "Rejection United FC" to "smart signing by Newcastle" with this. I fully trust our scouting that we carefully studied every player we go for - including those who went elsewhere. It's just that lack of DoF to sell the project to the Bruno or Botman type of players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mazzy Posted August 11, 2025 Share Posted August 11, 2025 Similar to Schar but not and exact replacement by any means. Thiaw with more passes surprisingly, and also more accurate with those passes. No suprise he's far better in the air than Schar as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As @Curva Sud Milano said, he needs a leader next to him. Schar needs someone with pace to cover. And together with Ramsdale and Schar, our transitions out from defence would be really good. All three can pass out and find their man in midfield. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well in that case he'd be perfect alongside Burn then rather than Schar. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

For Botman it was Milan iirc, who had just been to the semifinals the year prior. Bruno I guess it was loose (but no concrete) links to the cartel six. Whether that's a DoF thing or just the heirarchy (Amanda, etc), we just seemed to be more competent then in enticing those types of players to be part of our project even if we were still in the infancy of our rise.

Italy isn't the draw it was, hence Tonali. We were more competent, again, because we weren't battling the cartel,and PSR to an extent, for players.

KingArthur Posted August 11, 2025 Share Posted August 11, 2025 Quite a few Milan and Serie A fans have been saying that Thiaw is pretty weak 1 v 1 defender and makes a lot of howlers. Interesting to see if Eddie can fix this side of his game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
