Serie A 2013/14 thread

honda, ljajic and when we secure CL, you'll see a pleasant surprise MF signing at Milan

Oh boy, you are so naive.
You say: "Without the CL money, we wont spend."
To me it's more like: ""Without the CL money, we are going to sell"
Optimistically if we secure CL it's possible that we buy Ljajic and send Niang on loan, that's all. Other new player are possible only if we sell before.

I forgot to add the draw:
Juventus start their campaign away to Samp. Then they face Lazio and Inter followed by AC Milan in week 7. Inter open against Genoa; AC Milan versus Napoli and the Rome derby are both in week 4

The championship will kick off on Saturday 24 August and finish on 18 May 2014.

The big matches — The first thing that strikes you is that an uphill climb stretches out before the Champions of Italy: the Bianconeri begin their defence of the title away to Sampdoria, they go on to meet Lazio at home and follow that with a visit to San Siro to take on Inter and all in the first three weeks of the season; Torino, AC Milan and Fiorentina are queueing up in weeks six, seven and eight. AC Milan begin their challenge in Verona, whereas Inter host Genoa at the Stadio Meazza on the first day of the season. The Milan teams meet towards the end of part one of the season, over the Christmas holidays on 22 December. The Nerazzurri have a particularly heavy run in: they meet Napoli, AC Milan and Lazio from week 16 to week 18. The much awaited revenge for the Coppa Italia final comes soon with the Rome derby set for week 4, while week 3 sees Genoa meet Sampdoria for the Genoa derby. Verona and Chievo meet in week 13 while the Turin derby falls in week 6. Fiorentina, at least on paper, have a relatively smooth glide into the season until week 5 when they travel to Inter.

WEEK ONE (25/8 - 19/1): Cagliari v Atalanta, Fiorentina v Catania, Verona v AC Milan, Inter v Genoa, Lazio v Udinese, Livorno v Roma, Napoli v Bologna, Parma v Chievo, Sampdoria v Juventus, Torino v Sassuolo.

WEEK TWO (1/9 - 26/1): Atalanta v Torino, Bologna v Sampdoria, Catania v Inter, Chievo v Napoli, Genoa v Fiorentina, Juventus v Lazio, AC Milan v Cagliari, Roma v Verona, Sassuolo v Livorno, Udinese v Parma.

WEEK THREE (15/9 - 2/2): Fiorentina v Cagliari, Verona v Sassuolo, Inter v Juventus, Lazio v Chievo, Livorno v Catania, Napoli v Atalanta, Parma v Roma, Sampdoria v Genoa, Torino v AC Milan, Udinese v Bologna.

looking forward to serie a this season, should be very entertaining.

Milan have such a low wage bill that they do not need champions league money. Milan have income of around 270 million euros & the wage bill is now well under 90 million euros gross. Milan have net wages of 40-50 million euros.

Milan just come out with rubbish all the time. I mean they have lost 25 players in the last year or two & many where on big wages & some like Thiago Silva & Ibra on real crazy salaries, most of the players that came as replacements where on small wages & for many of the 25 players gone Milan did not replace them at all or just brought in youth players.

Milan for example now have a wage bill that is half of Arsenals & a third of Real Madrid.

sold a few, but they have Napoli's old manager Walter Mazzari, who is a very good manager. Haven't they signed Mauro Icardi who's supposed to be a very exciting youngster?

Icardi could be a very good striker in 2-3 years
