Furthermore, people like to claim that Barcelona's defenders can't defend. However, consider that they are a team that attacks a lot and leave their backline exposed. If their fullbacks were so bad, certainly they would have conceded more goals but as it stands I believe they have one of the best defensive records in Europe. In a team like ours where Alves would receive more defensive help from midfield, I'm sure he would be fine.
His quality as a defender shouldn't be the main discussion I believe... his qualities as a man however are something else.
signing Alves is even worse than signing Cassano and say Ballotelli.
both for Milan's culture and the Italian project we're supposed to be after.
