i read in many threads from several posters we are fine with the strikers we have now..i think this is turning into a sort of dogma:
_inzaghi is injured since one year and an half, and probably he's going to get surgery again, which would mean several months of stop
_crespo doesn not convince: a striker must SCORE, and in three months how he hasn't been able to find a decent form is beyond me.
_tomasson is very useful but
where do you think we'll go with 2 choices? do you think we can play 60 with shevchenko and tomasson? what we'll do if sheva stops scoring? can we rely, can ac milan society and club rely just on one striker just because being shy on the market is turning to be a stupid dogma? can't you see we struggle to score? wouldn't be better if sheva is partnershipped by another scorer?
let sheva out, who's scoring among the strikers? tomasson has scored one, and pippo one with celtic...just tell you zalayeta has scored 4 and juve without having world class has 4 strikers who have scored all 4 goals..
we must strnghten the attack, for this team sake! Or we risk a lot, just to be stubbornly shy on the market

We have been risking for strikers and probably defenders for a long time already. And probably according to Bman's theory our midfield is always at risk.
At the end, we win.
I share with your points, but give them sometimes. It's only 3 months Crespo has arrived. IF there is one reason why a striker should be bought, it can only be because of Inzaghi injury.
I also wouldn't count out Crespo yet, he has ont played much and a little bit of lcuk could change things and give him the needed confidence.
But the Inzaghi situation is troubling and it is slowly turning into another "Van Basten" saga. :depress: He have been on and off often now and almost only off. IF we are thining January then Tevez is surerly the name, but doubt Galliani want to splash out that much.
Then the name of a very interesting option came to my mind. Morientes. He is proven, he is unsettled and unwanted by his club and would therefore come cheap. We have good relations with Real and he can be bought. Only problem is that he is cuptied.
agree with kris, Crespo didn't show us what he is capable of doing just yet....hopefully he won't take much time to do it though ;) ....JDT is always a reliable sub and Pippo.....damn his injuries, nothing compares to Sheva + SuperPippo
So right now the situation doesn't look too good, but I believe Crespo will start scoring soon (he is already playing ok, but of course a striker needs to score, not to play good ;) ).....until Pippo comes back (he must!), Sheva + Crespo with JDT as super sub will do. Once Pippo is back is time for King Sheva + SuperPippo
IF Pippo requires another surgery (which would mean another 3-4 months out), AND Crespo doesn't convince, I'm sure Milan will seriously consider buying a new striker in January...many names come to my mind, but better wait and see, I prefer to think Crespo can deliver, and especially that Pippo will be back at his best soon

Damn.., pippo out for 3-4 months?
Means, he probably back in february.
I wanna ask ur candidate in january transfer window for new striker, who's yours, Goirre??
For me, the guy is dinho.
And if the guy isnt dinho (cause it's quite impossible), i'd rather choose none.

Guys, i agree with you that we need to wait time, but the time is not that long, cause serie a is toughest than ever and in CL a wrong match can send you home..now the situation is not dramatic, but i'm used to have a bit of foresight for the matches to come, and i wonder what will happen if sheva takes a cold if not worse.
i just make you think about this: we had targeted George Weah still in early 90 but we waited Van Basten injuries to recover without considering to sign Weah..In that case it was rightful to wait a legend like Van Basten, personally in my top three players ever, but why not signing Weah as well.. If we signed him, in Wien with Simone we would have won another CL..remember we played that final without Savicevic and all the competition with a first striker.. being too shy can cost a lot, much more than the risks about a dressing room with a striker more ..consider we haven't 30 players like Inter and with just 24/25 players, facing such injury like Inzaghi's is not a bad idea... damn, i'm sick of these emergencies upfront: we must go with a quality young striker even for the future, we cannot struggle to score and be scared if Sheva takes a cold or something.
The calibre of the strikers is relative to the chances that the TEAM creates and the quality & diversity of the build-up play.
Milan is wastefull & imprecise, especially compared to Juventus. The end result is that someone like Zalayeta can be a protagonist because of Juve's system.
With so many matches throughout a season, it is the 'system' employed by a team that wins at the end, feeding the talent on the park.
Milan needs to unblock itself and the goals will come..........
Forza Milan
If Inzaghi is still in this position come the end of the season then there is no doubt that money must be spent on someone who can be a full time first team striker. However we bought Crespo for covering injuries so I don't see why we need all 4 fit players fit. I also think Crespo could yet come good, if he dosn't then we simply have to rely on Tomasson who hasn't exactly let us down when we've done so in the past, and send Crespo back to Chelsea.
The January market is maybe worth thinking about, but not Tevez or anyone like that, he will be the player to go for (or someone equivalent like Torres or Gilardino) over summer if we decided Inzaghi cannot play often anymore and we're sending Crespo back. January money, if any is spent, would be better used getting a tried and tested older italian player with a good record, or maybe one of Lecce's promising forwards (though probably not Bojinov, I think his value is already very high) just someone who you know will get about 10 or so goals in the last half of the season.
If Inzaghi doesnt recover by the end of the season his replacement could be Crespo. If Crespo doesnt perform at all this season then come summer they could both be repaced :o Fernando Torres would surely arrive in such a situation and I personally would be happy to see milan bring back Chevanton to the Seria A.
i think we should sign bojinov, we lack speed upfront and we also lack presice shooting from outside the box (other than kaka), bojinov is all that... i think he is great, if crespo still doesnt score ENOUGH come january, we might consider benching him or sending him back... another option could be starting JDT, hes a great player and extremly underrated, he never failed us and his understanding with sheva is already guarenteed to be good. i dont see no reason why not to start him, he may not be the most exciting player around but he gets the job done no matter what. pippo is my last choice, u already know that im not very fond of him.

I pointed out that the problem is not our current strikers quality but rather the fact just tomasson and sheva can guarantee top performances..crespo comes from 2 disappointing seasons, due to injuries and bad form, so he is still a huge question mark if you ask me, i wouldn't be so confident about him, i like the guy and know what he has done, but it was 2 years ago at least, so with an inzaghi still and endlessly injured and crespo who has to regain all his old shape i'm not so relaxed about the team:
I want to point out that it's a long time i say this, since last year, when we had inzaghi injured all the season and borriello as a choice, which was unbelievable for a team who can play CL semifinals or finals...just two regulars and an unmature youngster..are we joking? we must thank the Luck Tomasson and Sheva had extraordinary seasons without injuries, but how long must we provocate the Faith?
This year is slightly better because we have Crespo instead of Borriello, but at the end of the day, if Crespo gets often injured and takes 2 months to regain the form, Borriello was a better choice then, or at least cheaper though!
give crepso time n let him start in all the matched n he will start scorin again. i dun think there is a point in startin with tomasson he will proly alwais b a replacement n he iz awesome at that

I agree we should wait. However, if the need for a striker becomes desperate then we should get a short term solution during the transfer window and go for the stars (imo Tevez or adriano) later
adriano is impossible i think, moratti just loves him and hes becoming inter himself!
i made a poll with a list of 6 strikers (bojinov, ronaldo, torres, tevez, cassano, gilardino) but come to think of it maybe i could add miccoli to the list, he was a good sub for juve and i was wondering why did they let him go?

Problem is, can we afford to have another short term solution? Crespo is also one you know...

Yeah, I already voted. As for Adriano, its more a dream buy then an actual suggestion.
Problem is, can we afford to have another short term solution? Crespo is also one you know...
I don't think its really possible to get a top class striker during the January window and to be honest, it will be difficult to integrate them into the side at that point of the season, which is why I suggest getting a reasonable forward for the rest of the season, only IF necessary (I still believe we'll be ok for this year). Personally, I think next summer we will have to look for some top forwards to bolster the attack. Pippo is great, but his injuries are troublesome and he is getting older as well, while Crespo is likely to go by then and JDT isn't necessarily the best partner for sheva we can get (even though he is brilliant for us).
anyone see the news that Milan and Barca will be discussing a January bid for Ronaldinho?
do you think he will be played as a striker or part of a 2 man support with sheva upfront alone in a trident if this happens?

out of those 6 I'd take Cassano or Gilardino. Bojinov looks impressive though, however if milan announced tomorrow that an 18 year old was being brought in to be our first choice striker I'd think the management had gone mad. Gila or Cassano for me, still not 100% that torres could adapt. Tevez is an unknown quantity to me, I have heard things about him disliking rough challenges (in argentina the football is far less rough than in europe) and being a bit slow so I'm unsure of his ability to cope against the cream of european defending, which italy no doubt has.

dev is right, big players doesn't move in january, so the only possible one in january is gilardino who's clearly unhappy in a small Parma. He's still the first striker of Italy NT so he doesn't get enuff spotlight at Parma now. At least that's what is said here, and his nervous comments in the last months prove it.

Source plz !!
Dont try to make any f**kin rumours !!
never heard before.
I think that guy so untouchable.
He'll make the record of player transfer to break zidane's !

It doesnt matter with that.
2 behind 1 or 1 behind 2.
One thing I know :
It would be The Best Triangle Offense in the World !!
(even better than Triangle Offense formula of Phil Jackson) :nana: :nana:

I think that Ronaldinho would never leave Barca, and personally I would never want him to, just like I would never like to see Cassano or Totti in another jersey. I personally like seeing players stay with their clubs and being the face of that club, instead of a rotating door like Chelsea or something.
I think a great option would be the Danish League [while a small league, his talent is uncanny] top scorer, Mohammed Zidan. His skills are sublime, and the ball sticks to his feet like a magnet, and I think the player that he can most be likened to is Thierry Henry. And he scores so many goals, he just scores scores scores. A real talent. Wanted by any team you can think of.
Talk of Tevez, Torres, won't happen, Tevez is destined for a Spanish move and Torres adaptability is very questionable. Gilardino, seems possible, and more and more so every day, while talk over Morientes would not be ideal due to him being cup tied. Cassano is a head ache and every one here talks about the calmness and elegance of Milan, why would we betray that ideal by taking in a cry baby in Cassano? Plus he's ugly.
I think in keeping with low key, potential based-buys seems in line with Milan thinking if a January transfer happens. For instance you can tell that Milan is slowly building for the future by recalling the likes of Coloccini and giving squad numbers to Pozzi and the like and the world wide Acadmies that are starting to recall players [my friend included]. I think a quiet potential based aquisition seems to be in the cards though I am torn between sticking with that statement. Ultimatley I think nothing will happen, it seems like Galliani likes sticking Ancelotti in tight situation where he has to use tactical brilliance to compensate for the small size of the strike force.
the most realistic signings this winter would be gilardino, cassano then tevez. if the season passes by and we dont get anyone i tihnk the rest are all realistic signings too!

This is the situation i was afraid since many moths ago..before the summer, (and i can prove it) i repeat we must strenghten the attack..we must go with another striker..
now i want to know what we'll do till january..there are 2 months and we have sheva who is playing since august and cannot take 1 day of rest, tomasson is playing badly and clearly out of form , plus crespo is a HUGE question mark..will he recover a decent form? it's 2 seasons people is wondering, both at inter and chelsea.
now i want to know: if sheva takes a cold or something , what the hell we will do? except sheva we don't score.
i see you all confident about the transfer window, but we must realise the transfer window is not the best moment to choose players..the market situation is very poor, and all users here must realise the clubs aren't there to satisfy our needs when we want: i see too many..ok WE'LL SIGN GILARDINO, NO WE'LL SIGN CASSANO, NO TORRES..i ask you all: do you think it's so easy, we go there and they give us the players? IMO this situation was clear since this summer, i can prove if i look for the threads, and just a bit of arrogance by our management , which has underestimted the possible problems, has put us into this situation .
Now what will we do? We are joking with our season about this, if you don't score, don't have enuff form or quality, you don't win anything. Many tough games are decided by the play of a champion, or his quality in front of the goal or inside the box. It's not true, if we have decent players upfront, and play an awesome game, we score anyway..firstly you need to play at your best every game, secondly the successes will be reached by quality players. That's hystory of football, not my opinion. The average team can reach a final once in 20 years.I don't mean we have an averege team, but upfront, except sheva, we have good players, not world class.
Now, with such team and players, we risk to field Borriello or Pozzi (because if we don't find a proper choice we'll recall them back) in a CL final just because we have been market shy, and let other teams signing amazing players without even doing anything.The worrying point is people believes we can win everything with Borriello on the bench (read somewhere).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
a huge **** off to Galliani who stated: "Pippo we'll wait for you, we won't sign any player on the market in january"
it's 2 years we wait, the thing are: they are able to solve his problems or we must sign anothe player.
i don't give a phuck of inzaghi, if milan loses. i like the guy or the players, but the jersey, the glory of this club is above any player on this earth. that's what i think, i don't want to sacrifice a whole season because we must be kind with our players.
we must play CL serie a where we can't drop a single point, plus coppa italia with 3 strikers with just one in great form , and the other two unable to play a decent match..Inzaghi is injured since two years, and Galliani is just able to say: "we'll wait you Pippo"..go with Pippo in honeymoon then! There is a lot of worried people , damn baldie, spend a couple of words to reassure these fans
plus, the various Gilardino,, Cassano and many others, can't play the CL having played in other competitions, so this wouldn't solve completely the problem
JDT had not been given a good chance really.. and even when has has he was good (vs reggina was it??? when kaladze scored) ... and besides the only difference between this season and last season in terms of strikers is crespo in boriello out, that sounds alot better... i have full trust in the strikers we have and thats eventhough i would like to see us bring in a big named striker in january.
What about Robinio??? Can he play well in Milan? :swars:

i have full trust in sheva and tomasson, crespo doesn't convince me but let's give him some time, but then, how many options we have more? crespo has showed to be injury prone..the number slightly gets thiner
And the solution Giovanni? You always seem to state the problem, which is infact correct, but you never seem to give the solution. Your suggestions?

the solution is already inside my post: sign a striker, which can be gilardino (it depends on parma's financial situation)..anyway, i wouldn't rule out a part time signing if there aren't good choices, but for heaven sake, sign a player who can replace pippo
there's a name i'm thinking of, and it's morientes, who would be perfect for a loan, but i highly doubt madrid will reinforce a direct contender
there's a name i'm thinking of, and it's morientes, who would be perfect for a loan, but i highly doubt madrid will reinforce a direct contender
I think they would. Perez and Galliani is good friends. Real Madrid/Perez is trying to force Morientes away and he surerly isn't happy about the lack of playing time considering he was the striker that performed best last year of the ones RM have on their books. Buy or loan, I think both is possible if we want it. and I would not be averse it, he is not the fastest of strikers, but he is classy.
In Italy, several sources are convinced:
----> Gilardino to Milan in January.
How? ---> Milan buy Suazo from Cagliari and give him to Parma as a replacement.
Forza Milan
Thanks for good news! Gilla to Milan cool!!!! :beer:

The signing of Gila is related to Parma's financial situation: if they will sold their club before the trnsfer window, they will be able to sell gilardino, if they sell the club after that period, he will be signed in june/july..anyway he's the next Milan first striker according to the most reliable sources
I once read that Gilardino is a Juve fan. Is it right?

05-11-2004, 15:12

actually, milan is a low profile club, they dont need to expose the new signing, thay can buy even the expensive player...for example, nesta, rui..milan is always milan. Not like EPL, sounds great in their pitch but in Europe they fail to compete with other team
always milan, forever milan

amorphis
06-11-2004, 12:48
be patient, milan is always low prolife. They dont need to expose their new signing but I believe this coming jan, there is at least 1 star enter to their list
For the current situation, Sheva obviously fantastic. Crespo, I aint givin up on him, he took a while to settle at Parma and I believe he will be an important player towards the end of the season, from about January, I have faith. Tomasson, good bit part, sub type player, not good enough to be starting though. As for Pippo im afriad to say this but I believe Pippo might be finished. Sure he will be be back playing, but as for seeing the old Super Pippo back, I highly doubt it, hope I am proved wrong.
As for possible signings. Ronaldinho and Adriano, forget it, they are the focal point of Barca and Inter. Torres, the question of adapting from Spanish to Italian football are raised. Never seen Tevez play. Bojinov, I believe he will probably be at Juve next season. Cassano, I would hate to see him play for us. Gilardino is the man for us, but not till June, i doubt we will buy him in Jan.

The strikers that would be great for milan would be either Gilardino or V. Bojinov these two are just brilliant. Bojinov just scored 2 goals in lecce 4-3 loss to udinese while Gilardino scored the goal against palermo in parma 1-1 draw. So one of these two would be very useful, Bojinov has really impressed and has showed better form than Gilardino this season, but u all know how good Gilardino is. Personally i will prefer Gilardino.
Il croato
07-11-2004, 12:30
Also and i would prefer gilardino because he is a class.Or maybe tevez?
Well we definately need someone after the poor shooting display by our players this evening.
i am convinced we need a new striker too!
seems like the most possible options are bojinov, gilardino, tevez... but i would like to add some1 who i have always admired... antonio di natale... id like to know what u guys think about him...
out of the 3 i would maybe chose the bulgarian... another good performance for him vs udinese. and based on tonight he seems to suit what we need most... not a player that plays in the pen. area like gila, but some1 who can drop back and just bombared their goal with shots.. and he does that perfectly!
bring in gilardino plz!! tomasson sucks, i lost all faith in him, lets jus bench him n use him as foruth striker n crespo iz gettin on my nerves. i admire him n i have some patience but **** we rnt parma n make experiments, we need to win
My favorite woud be Morientes too. He's pissed on real, didn't come to training (i dont know if it was just once) and they dont need/play him. I heard he wants a move to Italy. And i think he is an excellent player (though he is pretty old, and milan got too many old players). Gilardino would be good to. Bojinov? Never thought it's possible, but i would be very happy cos i like fast young strikers...

Guys, have i got the gift of foresight? reading the points of this thread it seems so."if Sheva takes a cold...." Yesterday we had the prove we are Sheva addicted, and that he's the only scorer in this team, the only player who can lead us anywhere.
But seriously, the fact we need a new striker, a skilled fresh striker who's on fire, who's classy , who's positive, who's not already troubled was clear since at least 2 years. I say this since last year, it's probably my only champaign on MIlan, a bit like Bayman's midfield theory.
Firstly, why have we add an already recovering player like Crespo, who has been a huge mistery in the last two years, to sub an already troubled player like Pippo? Because he was a damn Galliani's beloved bargain. The other choice at hand was Tomasson, who's (let alone the poor form at the moment) an excellent player, but not a world class able to single handedly lead us anywhere, like Sheva.
The point, my point, is this: our shy attitude on the market is just shameful. We needed a great signing since this summer, maybe since last year, when we were lucky that Tomasson and Sheva were both on fire; actually we played with 2 strikers all last season (the other were Inzaghi injured and Borriello out of squad at Reggina). Why we challenge the Faith and continue with this shy attitude on the market? We had put in our team a troubled player, a player who needs time, and the yesterday match has convinceed even the doubters which is our real situation , hidden by Sheva's Golden Ball like performances.
If Sheva stays out 2 weeks or more, we are in AMAZING TROUBLES.
This situation is merely the result of Galliani's blindness, and we must all understand that if Fester doesn't open the wallet, we cannot be lucky forever and win CL with bargains at zero cost on the market.
Fester thinks we can compete for Scudetti and CL without spending on the market..he's obsessed with bargains at zero cost, and wants to prove how good the management is, just to say: we've discovered these players and signed them for a bunch of peanuts, and now they make us winning a scudetto. It went perfectly last season, but this year it's a differnt story, so it's time for an important investiment, so Fester open this phackin wallet. Stop with this shameful Crespo like bargains. Nobody makes presents in modern football without a reason, and if Crespo had been a player able to lead us to a CL, don't you think he wouldn't have come for free?
[
I totally agree with you.Milan do need strikers.They're depending too much on Sheva.He came of the pitch during the game against Barca and Roma.Look what happened!They were shattered!Mere coincidence?Don't think so.
(Hernan Crespo)/Chelsea-Just can't fit into Milan's system.It's been 3 months and no goals.For a striker that is a horrible record.Should just leave Milan.
(Vikash Dhorasoo)-No starts at all for Milan.Maybe he should go back to France.The pace of Italian football is just too much.
We should buy RVN and close the case forever! He is one heck of a goal scoring machine and has a proven goals record in Europe as well. That was just a fantasy suggestion on my part but there won't be a better duo than Shevchenko-RVN in world football IMO.
The striker problem is evident. But the offensive midfielders aren't helping at all with hardly any goals scored or assisted for! Cafu is the one assisting always!
Firstly, why have we add an already recovering player like Crespo, ...
He is the favorite puppy of Ancelotti, who'd give him all the trust :blind: to gain his form by using Milan's games. It explains why Galliani denies again & again that we won't buy any strike in Jan.
He WILL stay through AT LEAST this season so long Ancelotti has his say . :lala:
(Vikash Dhorasoo)-No starts at all for Milan.Maybe he should go back to France.The pace of Italian football is just too much.
How would you know? He haven't played any Italian footbal yet. I am afraid it is other reason entirerly than this.
[It's not like Milan don't have the money.Most players would welcome a move 2 Milan.Hopefully Berlusconi can roll out his chequebook 2 buy some strikers.
Hello!!!!!
Remember the partnership of Rebrov and Shevchenko that single handedly destroyed Real in 1998/1999.It would be a dream if he can come 2 Milan.Besides,he's cheap!Warming the bench at West Ham when he can combine with Sheva 2 conquer Europe.
What about Gilardino?A person who is second 2 Shevchenko in last year's scorer's charts should join Milan.Not doing too well at Parma.Berlusconi can break the bank 4 his signature.
Milan need another playmaker.Kaka is inconsistent and Rui Costa is getting old.Rosicky of Dortmund seems 2 be a good bargain.After all they're not doing too well in the Bundesliga.Perfect replacement for Dhorasoo.
If i can see these solutions,y can't Galliani and Berlusconi see it.If Milan don't start buying,they can forget about defending their italian title and especially the Champions League!
How would you know? He haven't played any Italian footbal yet. I am afraid it is other reason entirerly than this.
He has played in Milan's pre season friendlies and he hasn't exactly 'sparkled'.Milan is a team capable of conqueoring Europe and they need players who can create an immediate impact

don't agree about another playmaker, kaką is not a playmaker , he's an attacking midfielder, plus we all have seen what he's able to do, so the one who deserves time is Kaką.
Aswin: Rebrov?? how can he become a star at milan if he cannot be in the regulars at west ham? it's beyond me
Gilardino last year scored 40 goals, plus made Italy win the U21 title singlehandedly . He's a certainty still now, and don't forget he's playing for a minor side at the moment. To be feeded by classy players is crucial for a striker
I'd like Bojinov on the team.

I want to point out that i don't think Crespo is crap, but he needs time to recover a decent form, and consistent trainings, and play some games..but meanwhile, we need to sign a new player..So basically i 'm not against Hernan, but in this situation, esp if Sheva stays out for some weeks, we need a new player to sub Pippo soon.
The last i've heard is that 3 months are few time for Pippo's injury..3 months is the minimum time before start to regain a decent feeling with ankle, but we're not speaking about walking, we're speaking about performing agonistically at the highest levels...3 months are an overoptimistic time..that's why a new signing will be unavoidable..plus, who says pippo will ever recover? here we must realise all that van basten finished his career with an ankle injury, and it can take much more than 3 months.
personally i believe we'll sign a player parma likes, for ex.suazo, and give parma this player + cash for gilardino, who'll not be able to play CL anyway, but at least will give sheva time for rest and more choices..
in this time i do hope crespo will regain his shape, and therefore he will do it with calm, and without so many pressures on his shoulders
Tomasson is an excellent player, who'll come back soon IMO but we cannot rely on him as a regular everygame..

Lyon went further than us in last years UCL. And he did not make a fool out of himself either. From what I heard noone stood out more than him.

Dhorasoo was benched 4 most of last season.Didn't play 4 Lyon that much.
Besides,now is not the time 2 experiment players.

Exactly,Pirlo and Seedorf were bench warmers at Inter.Now they have cemented their places at Milan.Rebrov knows Sheva's style of play and he won't be cup tied.Another alternative would be Bojinov but he is still young and rumour has it that he favours a move 2 Juve.

Well, I assume you know enough about Dhorasoo to know he wasn't benched because he lacked the quality.
He has been one of Lyon's best players in recent years (when they have dominated French football) along with others like Juninho, so I think raising that argument against him is quite pointless.
If he is failing at Milan, then it is more than likely to be off the pitch problems rather than on pitch problems

"A good result for a not-in-form Milan" says most the players, isnt that what they keep saying after each game? Im fed up with this not-in-form Milan.. With all this quality of players, with a squad this size and this good, the best in europe, we are unable to find our form? We are supposed to have our form on from the beginning till the end of the season! I agree its better to find form at Spring rather than now, but what makes you so sure we will find that form? How often has Milan found their form in Spring other than last year? I think last year's mid-season Milan was the best I've seen in a decade, they were simply unstoppable, and yet they haven't lost any players but are yet to impress this season. Not one impressive game. Its always Carlotti saying "We played well for the first 30 mins" Or "We dominated for the first 60 minutes". This annoys me really, evreytime I see that i feel i want to punch Carlo. We should dominate the game for most of it! and not only 60 minutes!.. I mean ok, the team obviously cant be on top form for the rest of the reason, but they havent shown anything yet! Only players living up to their standards at the moment are Sheva and Cafu, maybe even Nesta and Dida, but thats it. Actually Stam impressed me alot in the games he played.
I agree, Crespo and JDT shouldn't be sold to another club, but should be thrown in a garbage truck. The ideal and most perfect player that would suit Milan would be Tevez, but thats just dreaming. With Carlo here, I guess we'll probably buy 2 more quality defenders rather than buying a striker :(.

Now is the best time to experiment. you change when you play bad, not when you play good.

Carlo hasnt brought in any defenders we didnt need. He didnt ask for Stam, infact he once said he thought Milan dont need him.
He did however ask for Crespo. I thought Crepo looked good when he came on against Roma. He seemed very relaxed on the ball and his good touches were impressive. Once Roma scored he dissapeared. It couldnt have been good for his confidence that in a game he should have left his mark on thet other team went and scored. :dconf: He also seems unwilling at the moment to "dive into" chances, but he has just come from injury. He just needs a goal under his belt and Im sure he will start showing his quality that most here agree he has. It would help if he gets to actually start a game though.

well I saw that match and thought Crespo looked poor. Shevchenko I feel would have scored given another had he been on instead of Crespo, of course you can never be sure but Crespo isn't even hitting the target let alone beating the keeper right now.
IMO We need Bojinov he is... fantastic! Great player we must sign him other way... we hasn`t other way! :3band:
its bojinov, or tevez or gila for me!

where was fester when the ronaldinhos the makaays the drogbas the robbens the rooneys the etoos the larsson the chevantons the owens were on the market?
i would love to see crespo doing well, but he was a huge risk in august cause he was troubled and we already had a troubled player, pippo.
we need another striker but the best pieces are away.
what should we do to solve our striking problems anyway?
change the system or change the players?

play one tocuh, try new schemes and solutions, and sign a great alternative to shevchenko.did you watch how easily barca cut our defence with one touches? and our is a quality one.we must finally find a way to broke these catenacci around :angf:
imagine you reach a final, then sheva gets injured..what happens?

That cost Eto'o equalisher..
IMO our defence is great, but some times we just couldn't deal with the opponent's speed.
even worse we play a very tight schedule.
imagine you reach a final, then sheva gets injured..what happens?then another 0-0 draw and hope we'll win the shoot-out. :D
what about miccoli.. i like him alot, and his free kicks are a big benefit because like some1 said we have 0 effecieny out of them, i also like maresca and obodo from fiorentina!
Ancelotti just said that he won't sign any players during the January transfer window especially strikers.He is still confident on Crespo and Tomasson.We need 2 get either Bojinov or Gilardino.It would be great if we could have both!
Another goal-less draw without Sheva....
The only positive note was Dhorasoo's performance.
Milan need strikers especially those who have played in the italian league.This way,they won't take too long 2 adapt 2 Italian football
Galliani and Berlusconi i hope u're reading this.
MILAN NEED STRIKERS!
MILAN NEED STRIKERS!
MILAN NEED STRIKERS!

MILAN NEED STRIKERS!
what is the use of us whining here? many players were fantastic before they came to milan. what makes milan sign them? of course they were good. laursen in verona, helveg in udinese, duggary in bordeaux, rivaldo in barcelona, but some of them simply can't prove themselves in milan. or, they could never gel into milan.
i have hope in gilardino. but what if he simply won't shine with us? the same goes to all the possible new strikers. if we are just doing the cheap talk, that's fine. if galliani is, then it is not good for morale. one day he is interested in one player, the other day he wishes to sign somebody, what will that make our current loyal players think??
i would rather see galliani denying here and there. that he said we won't sign anybody may not necessarily mean it. we all know that he is a lying bastard. :D our president is not just a businessman, he is a politician! he can't just splash out in the mercato! again, he is a politician, he has other concerns to take care of.
so people, i think it is good to recognize that we have a strikers problem, but we don't have to overdo it. galliani and co will delivery when it is time. i know that we may have missed a few guys in the past, like ronaldinho. but the football is like a gamble, nobody wins all the time. is juventus still paying for the guy who is now in argentina :D? (of course, you don't lose all the time either, except inter merda. ;)) don't dream crazy about getting a shevchenko every year, or a nesta every year.
we have a strong enough team, and let's give ancelotti more trust. he knows everybody in the team, right? sometimes, surprise could come from the team, and it doesn't have to a new purchase. don't forget DIDA :proud: after all, unless you were berlusconi, or son of berlusconi :D, what could you do?
to sum up, be patient. milan won't fail us, buying a new guy or not.
i have hope in gilardino. but what if he simply won't shine with us? the same goes to all the possible new strikers
yes but that doesnt mean we should sit there and let others pick him up... u said it urself football is a gamble, however obviosly the chances of crespo succeeding here after a miserable season at chelsea are much slimmer than gilardinos after a more than excellent season with parma. u have to go with what seems to be a better choice... obviosly we need a striker... and crespo isnt scoring when we need him to be!

you are missing my point here, or maybe i didn't put them together clearly enough so that you can get it.
gilardino proved himself last season, crespo didn't (but not very bad anyway, scored quite a handful when not given too much time). if they were both samely priced, i bet that we would have gone for gila.
but gilardino costs big buck! and crespo is free! my point was: nowaday, we are not like old days anymore, we need to make wise decisions.
little money for superstar; >> big money for superstar; >> little money for good player >> big money for good player
the decision for gilardino and crespo should fit into the second and third situation, yet gilardino is yet to be a superstar, and i understand if galliani wants to play safe (giving gila one more year to mature; and crespo as a interim replacement to warm up the place for gila, i think it is good.)
to sum up, my point is: it is not like we have unlimited resources so that we can simply go all out to try our luck. we have budget constraints too. sometimes we are just playing safe, and that is understandable to me. and sometimes we lose because we are not aggressive enough, and you just have to face it.

that's exactly the point: we are already dropping points in november, and i'm so pissed off with fester because it was a predictable situation..at least i listened doubts raised still this summer by networks and i 100% agreed with them. so if many had doubts, it's because these consequences were predictable
i have faith in tomasson's recovering, but crespo worries me..if it was matter of finding shape ok, but here it's matter of find it again after 2 years of nothing :rollani:

wait, you misunderstood, I never said were out of all competitions (or any for that matter) which would completely contradict my statement in the Brescia - Milan (post game) thread and like many, I more than just believe that we can win everything.
What I said was, there are all these calls for signings in January, but something must be done now, as if we don't sort things out now, then even if we get someone great in January, it'll end up being too little too late if we keep dropping so many points till then. However, don't get me wrong, I know were still in a very good position in every competition were in.
Ps - the girl in Gio's post looked like Keira Knightly, but I'm not sure its her
wow that chick is hot but a lil flat. anyway i think we shud sign a new striker in january. i remember last year ppl were mad cuz carlo wusnt usin rotation n now that he does, we c the results. y dun we get suazo till summer n then trade him n cash to parma for gilardino

It is possible milan will sign someone in january as Milan were never really convinced about Crespo, but only signed him because of Carlo's reassurance.
If we do sign someone he would have to be available to play in europe and how many quality "dependable" strikers are there that arent cup tied. I really hope we dont have to sign anybody.

I DON'T REMEMBER I EVER GOT SO DRUNK THAT I EVER SAID I AM SICK OF ANY ONE (NOT JUST JDT OR CRESPO) IN MILAN. SO IF YOU ARE ACCUSING ME OF SOMETHING, PLEASE HELP ME OUT HERE, AT LEAST SHOW US WHEN AND IN WHICH THREAD I EVER SAID THAT. OTHERWISE, I WILL NOT TAKE THIS KIND OF BULL**** ACCUSATION (YES, CLAIMING THAT I SAID I AM EVER SICK OF ANYBODY IN MILAN IS AN INSULT TO ME.) :mad:

Now, taking off my moderator hat (it is a little tight), I doubt we will pick up anyone, but if Crespo doesn't show me something soon, I'm gonna start calling for us to buy a new striker in January. Is he even out there when he's out there, if you get what I'm saying? Maybe we can recall Kutuzov...

I was transferred to Arsenal from Besiktas over the summer.. I didn't want to be a Gooner.. I don't get along with my team mates, nor do I fit the profile of an Arsenal player. They are [Arsenal as a whole that is] always critisized for a lack of strength, so they brought me in.. A true bull type of player, I'm like a tank, kind of like a short Adriano. But with the creative flair of a no 10 and the finishing of a 9...
Samaldinho is a play on my name and Ronaldinho, my old Brazilian coach took the "sama" in my name and put it in Ronaldinho's name.. I'm too short to be a complete tank like Adriano, my header has a bit to be desired, but I can shoot with either foot and my hat trick against Chelsea involved a left footed free kick that I am insanley proud of, then a burst through the middle of the Chelsea back line for the second and then a very similar play only to be taken out like a bad habit to earn myself a penalty for my third..
I doubt I'm Milan Material, and I'm a tad inconsistent, though that has been slowly been taken away as a descriptor of my play. My dream is to play in the San Siro and hopefully it will come true, I'd even take the expierience as a visiting player if possible.. But nothing would give me more self gratification then to wear red and black [be it of Milan or Egypt (I've been capped at U18 level for Egypt)]
P.S. Egypt wears red and black jerseys..

Galliani has again made much noise about Milan's absence from the Jan Transfer window...I wonder if he thinks this situation which currently faces us is nothing serious?
As long as Sheva is healthy and scoring goals, it is apparent that they (Galliani et al) will continue to believe that we are ok and balanced insofar as the forward line is concerned, yet the car with 4 wheels is only riding on one at present. Of the other three tyres, two are deflated, and one is completely flat, and wont be repaired until February.
Lets see how long the car can ride properly with this situation.
If the car breaks down, what will Berlu do? Will he buy a whole new car, or just change some tyres?
Before we get ahead of ourselves with "fantasy signings" and more and more players in the squad, please consider this:
- The fish on the other side always looks bigger. We mention many names for transfer in rumors and "wish lists" - are they really that much better than our guys. I do not think so. The Milan team is simply not in shape and well conditioned at this moment, probably due to lack of good serious pre-season training.
- JDT just scored two goals for the National team of Denmark against Georgia in an official World Cup elimination match. What does that make him? We should all remember his timely goals for us last season. He can still come vack to be a productive second or third striker for Milan.
The disappointment so far has been Crespo who does not seem to get untracked and has lost a couple of steps. In the meantime, there is nothing wrong with playing both Rui Costa and Kaka behind Sheva.
Let us stop being "transfer gurus" and look at players in other teams like teenagers in a shopping mall who want to buy everything.
Well said Josh, I agree 100% :clap:
- and if I may add, 2 excellent goals by tomasson, couldn't believe it's the same player who's been pathetic for Milan recently :eek: an unreachable shot from 25 metres and a wonderful one-man performance as he dribbled past 2 defenders and finished it off cooly. He was the only good thing for Denmark, though.
P.S. another 2 goals by Sheva for Ukraine :dstup:

an sheva almost lobbed the keeper from midfielder, seen with my own eyes
If anyone can give us the link for these goals, it would be great. I know it's not the right place to mention but I thought it is the right time.
Tomasson must be played alongside Sheva.It's amazing that this is the same player who can't find the net for Milan.I think all he needs is more playing time and confidence.Since the transfer market is closed,we should work with what we have.We shouldn't be envying players all over the world and hope that they come to Milan.
Berlusconi and Galliani both have a reasonable explanation for closing the transfer window.They didn't want the sudden presence of a new player to affect the morale of the whole team which sounds logical.It's not that Crespo and Tomasson are useless,they just need to find their rhythm and confidence.If Milan were to sign a new player,it would definitely affect the players' morale
this keeps getting better and better... crespo just scored for us... in this last week every milan striker scored except injured inzaghi. i think we should play tommasson with sheva more
