AC8

Nope, you just described Arsenal. It's the exact opposite in Italy nowadays due to clubs financial strength. What the next few season holds is very different for the team finishing at the top and the rest. Each season is a do or die, hence the controversial nature of the league. If not for the famous invincible year under Conte, milan was on pace to build leagues best squad with core players already in Ibra and Thiago Silva. Tevez, Pogba, Dybala, Morata, Alex Sandro have all been targeted by both clubs, as well as Milan's retarded cousin inter, but they play for Juve for the very same reason you just said it's not that important. Anyways I have great respect for this man, and hope everything goes to the plan for you lot next season. He will fulfil his destiny of being the best loser and finishing second once again. :)
