It’s
hard to believe what has and hasn’t happened this summer. With a preliminary
agreement finally in place, an unimpressive preseason, and a very light
mercato, fans are left to meter their excitement with a large dose of reality.
With the new season starting up before the physical transformation of the club
and our team, it’s harder to be excited or optimistic about the first half of
our season. I think most fans are watching as closely to see what happens off
of the pitch with our transformation.
Changes in ownership and management... will the players on the pitch follow suit? |
With so many changes and a new season on the horizon, I
needed a big name guest, so of course I turned to the fantastic Gio
of Rossoneri TV.
