While people have been assessing the state of things, I asked longtime guest of the podcast Pete to return and discuss the current state of Milan. On the State of Pioli, we also had a rebuttal from Katie Britt of Alabama (bet y'all didn't know she was a Milan fan.) But mostly, we discussed the recent Milan matches, Pioli's tenuous position at the club, the possibility of summer transfers and even the latest scandal to hit Milan (or at least what the media wants us to think is a scandal.)

On this Episode:

• The State of Pioli

• Katie Britt's rebuttal to the State of Pioli

• Verona-Milan match

• Slavia-Praha match

• Europa League Draw

• Potential summer exits

• Offices at Casa Milan raided

Thanks to Pete for joining me once again for a great discussion on the current state of Milan. You can follow him on Twitter @pdacquaviva for more insights on Milan.
