    Shareholder: 'AC Milan have no long-term strategy, Berlusconi and Galliani should leave!'

    Is anything going right for AC Milan at the moment?

    The club is rudderless, with Coach Sinisa Mihajlovic being left by the wayside the Rossoneri struggling to even beat minnows like Carpi.

    The Haka that was shot in the stadium last week was a slap in the face to fans of a once-great club, as has been the constant chopping and changing at the team's helm.

    Filippo La Scala, vicepresident of the Association of Minority Shareholders, very much agrees with this analysis.

    Though they count for little (they own 2-3% of the club's shares), their symbolic refusal of the board nominations advanced by the club yesterday was a symbolic one, a stand that hasn't been made in thirty years.

    La Scala had this to say about the state of the club:

    "The biggest issue is the club's total lack of planning, and the absence of a long-term project. Running a club like Milan today is nothing like what it would have been 30 years ago". 

    "If the club had a plan, it would have hired a someone who could oversee the side's development over a number of years. 

    La Scala then blamed the Berlusconi presidency (though he only mentioned his holding company, Fininvest) for what has happened... and Adriano Galliani, too.

    "We hope Fininvest [the company Silvio Berlusconi runs] can exit the club gracefully, and pass the baton to someone who is worth of a club of Milan's name". 

    "Riyad Mahrez was bought for 400.000, I'm not saying it should be the norm, but this kind of thing hasn't happened at Milan for years". 

    "I blame Galliani, we proposed an alternative board of directors in yesterday's AGM, like those of Rivera, Maldini and Seedorf".
