Il Regionnaire – A Milan Story – 4

Oct 08, 2023 Madd FM

    Welcome back – Il Regionnaire continues as we embark on our third season at a fully revolutionised AC Milan squad that now contains only players and staff who were born or produced within 50km of the city of Milan, having finished second in Serie A last season behind neighbours Atalanta to guarantee our return to Champions League football after a yearlong absence caused by our 5th place finish in Season 1 at the Rossoneri.     When we last left off, we were heading into the summer transfer window with a glorious €93m transfer budget available, with the obvious caveat that this can only be spent on eligible players for our local-only transfer policy. Add to that the ~€50m we received in mandatory post-loan fees for Ismaël Bennacer and Charles De Ketelaere and we have one hell of an arsenal available as we go to war in the transfer market.   By this point we have already snapped up the majority of available Milan-based talent in the likes of Federico Dimarco, Giorgio Scalvini, Caleb Okoli, Nicolo Rovella, Amad Diallo, Musa Barrow and club record signing Cesare Casadei (€56m) whom we have successfully retrained to be our lone striker following his 24-goal haul last season. In terms of players whom we haven’t yet signed and are eligible – we are talking big names and even bigger transfer values. Gianluigi Donnarumma (ex-Milan academy) has just won the Champions League at PSG and is valued over €300m (!); Dejan Kulusevski (ex-Atalanta academy) is thriving at Tottenham valued at over €220m with his 10 goals helping them to a 4th placed league finish, while Alessandro Bastoni (also ex-Atalanta academy) is valued over €130m and has no imminent interest in switching from the blue to the red side of Milan.   So – not as easy as one would have hoped in terms of continuing building our band of elite Milanese talents, however one player emerges from our extensive Regionnaire search filter who is definitely of immediate interest, not only based on his transfer value (€90m – €133m) but also based on the fact that he was born in the town of Lecco which just falls within our catchment area, as well as the fact that he is a former AC Milan academy graduate himself. Have you ever heard the tale of the prodigal son?     While Rovella did a great job last season as our Anchor in the DM strata alongside Sandro Tonali as the Segundo Volante (Attack), Manuel Locatelli would be a substantial upgrade as well as being highly versatile, and with this Milan squad looking to compete across Serie A, Coppa Italia and Champions League fronts, we most certainly could do with a player of his calibre. Considering Juventus finished 4th last season (2 points behind ourselves), one might think his head could be turned to lure him back home?     We agree a €110m fee with €60m paid up front and the rest spread over three seasons – what a f*cking player, the thought of having Locatelli and Tonali in midfield is mouthwatering and well worth doubling our transfer record for…right? 😅 That still leaves us with around €80m to play with so we set about bolstering our squad depth in a couple of other key positions; Centre-Back Giorgio Cittadini arrives from Atalanta for €7m to offer cover for Scalvini, Okoli and Vanheusden, and he is followed by his Atalanta teammate Matteo Ruggeri (€7.5m) who replaces Tomasso Augello as our backup left-back. Further up the pitch we add Irish winger Kevin Zefi (€4m) who leaves Inter after 3 seasons in their youth academy, and he is followed by not one but two former FM wonderkid attackers in the form of Atalanta’s Roberto Piccolli (€7.25m) and ex-Inter graduate Andrea Pinamonti who arrives from Sassuolo for €22.5m.   Before we crack into Season 1, there was time for one more slightly unexpected deal. With Donnarumma still pretty much unattainable, we signed Stefano Turati last summer to replace Mike Maignan in goal and watched him have a fairly solid debut season between the sticks. That said, I couldn’t help but have my head turned by another Bergamo product who on paper looks to be a stronger goalkeeper both in terms of shot-stopping and technical ability as a Sweeper Keeper. In a last minute turn of events (literally the week prior to our season opener), we make a somewhat rash decision to sign Marco Carnesecchi for €27m from Atalanta, and even more interestingly Atalanta then return with a €40m bid for Turati to replace him! We end up literally swapping goalkeepers however I am highly confident we have gotten the better deal here as we bank both a better keeper and a €13m profit to show for it 💰.   A final point to add is that the individual performances of some of our band of merry Milanese boys have grabbed a lot of outside attention – not only have we done well in terms of incoming signings, but it’s also an achievement that we manage to hold on to some of our key players particularly with the calibre of clubs that come calling during the summer. We manage to fight off interest from the likes of Real Madrid (Barrow), Inter (Pobega), Tottenham (Tonali) and Man Utd (Dimarco) and our ability to retain these players is in itself as good as a new signing when you consider the size and depth of the player pool available to us here at Milan.     Squad Goals   Our squad is healthy (albeit not full to the brim with superstars). We are now in a position to fill two different XIs of local-only talent if and when needed which will be essential as we compete across multiple fronts this season. Overall it’s safe to say that we are Regionnairing the sh*t out of it in Milan and things are going reasonably well (compared to Northern Boys anyway, if you know you know).     Season 3   It’s deja vu for our opening league fixture as we again face and comfortably beat Spezia at home, made even sweeter by debut goals for both Locatelli and Piccoli which help us to a 3-1 victory to start our season on a high in Milan. That sets us on a somewhat of a roll – a quick blip against Brescia (whom we scored 13 against last season 🤷‍♂️) is soon forgotten as we go on an absolute spree picking up 9 wins in a row and going unbeaten for 19 games which include 14 Serie A fixtures and 5 Champions League ties (let’s not mention the new UECL format 🤮), the highlight of which were hattricks for Cesare Casadei in a 7-0 thrashing of Atletico Madrid in Europe as well as an immense three-goal return from Sandro Tonali in a 5-0 drubbing of Sampdoria, the latter of whom is making a massive case to be my FM23 Player of the Year (#spoilers 👀).       Everything starts to click in what is arguably the best run of games I have had for years in Football Manager – despite the increased game frequency and decreased breaks between fixtures, the depth of our squad means the impact is minimal and when one player needs a rest, another is quick to fill in and make a name for themselves in their own right. A prime example of this is Milan-born Roko Simic (son of Milan and Croatia legend Dario who is one of our scouts at the San Siro), a player who we signed as a 19-year-old in Season 1 for depth and has emerged to be a real goal-threat particularly in Europe wherein he has scored 5 goals to date (the lad is also drawing attention in real-life based on his recent performances for Red Bull Salzburg).   By the end of November and after 14 league games, AC Milan are TOP OF SERIE A and remarkably have have only conceded 4 goals in 14 games, Carnesecchi is proving to be one hell of a signing with 10 clean sheets not to mention the partnership of Scalvini and Okoli making us impregnable at the back 🔥🔥.     December and January aren’t half bad either – wins against Roma and Torino are followed up by slightly stuttery draws against 2nd place Napoli and 3rd place Sassuolo as well as a 1-1 Champions League draw with Crystal Palace who somehow blagged their way to a Europa League win last season to gain a place in the newly formatted group stages (sigh).       By the time we reach the end of January, not only are we still top of Serie A after 21 games played, we are also top of the Champions League League Stage (that’s easy to read right?) and following that end of January draw with Atalanta we are met with a very interesting and welcome Steam notification which I honestly think I have never seen before in Football Manager – does that say more about me than the game?     I can safely say I have never had an unbeaten season in this game that I have played for over 25 years – might this be the one?     Normality is restored – having already qualified for the knockout stages, we travel away to Stamford Bridge for our final league stage game and get trounced by Graham Potter’s (yep) Chelsea side who boast the likes of Marco Asensio and Yeremy Pino alongside stalwarts (in this save anyway) N’Golo Kanté and Romelu Lukaku. That qualification sets us up for a Round of 16 clash with Red Bull Salzburg (who you may remember were involved in our early CL Group Stage exit in Season 1), here’s hoping Chelsea was just a blip in what has been an otherwise near-perfect season.       Having won 16 out of 20 Serie A games up to this point, we go on to draw 1-1 at home to lowly Frosinone before then losing to rivals Lazio, and suddenly our weaknesses are exploited for all to see as we stumble to further draws with Inter and Spezia. 9 points dropped blows the league wide open and opens the door for our Neapolitan friends to draw level with us on 56 points apiece with 25 games played, staggering considering we were 8 points clear of them just 10 games ago..does anyone know the Italian for bottle job?       How better to try and regain some form than a trip away to Juventus in Turin? Let’s not forget we beat them 7-0 on the final day of last season…     Remarkably we pick up a 3-0 win away at the Allianz Stadium (nice to see youngster Roko Simic on the scoresheet again, one to watch for the future) and this is a vital win as we now look to keep up with Napoli whereby previously it was ourselves setting the pace. That victory gets us back to winning ways in the league through March where we also have a big scare in the Champions League; having lost 3-1 away to Red Bull Salzburg in the first leg, we scrape through with a 114th minute winner from Andrea Pinamonti to make it 6-5 on aggregate and set us up for a quarter final draw with Bayern Munich!     We are back to keeping clean sheets again and once more we need to credit a lot of it to our goalkeeper Marco Carnesecchi who by now has also been called up to the Italy national squad albeit with that man Gianluigi Donnarruma still standing in his way of the #1 jersey. If he keeps going like this, manager Stefano Pioli will surely have a big decision to make 👀.     TYPICAL. The Football Manager gods are back to run the rule on our progress as we lose our star man for at least a month, at a…
