View Full Version : Dhorasso makes case for himself
Ok, i think i am vikash dhorasso's biggest fan! How about that?
Champions League - in the 10 mins he was on, he overshadowed pirlo's contribuition in the game. Made no errors at all - and created one goal by threading a pass to Kaka.
This follows his exemplary performance against Palermo in the Coppa where he had another assist.
People who say we should let him go need to eat humble pie :D Forza Dhorasso! Forza Milan!
Dhorasoo and Rui played both excellent - and both our mostly only subs....
Our reserves apparently are better than first teamers.

Great that Rui played good now, but he was worthless in the Palermo game. I think Gattuso may pick up form again too, but it is to early to judge.

are u referring to me ?:) i never criticised him!
I think that the rotation method is better for the team. Rui costa , Dhorasoo and Crespo proved what they are capable of . So I dont know why Dhorasoo couldnt switch with Pirlo each week, like real rotation . I still prefer 1 striker then 2 , cause when Milan plays with 1 striker , we have Rui Costa in the team + kaka , and kaka will play kinda forward AND we have a more solid midfield.
Rui Costa :3band: :3band: what a great lob to cafu and what a wonderfull pass to Crespo :eek: :3band:
i like 1 striker supported by two players in the hole too. it is devastating. too bad silvio is as bad a tactician as he is a politician ;)
Have to agree, with Sheva on his own up front, and the two in behind milan are at their devastating best (home game against depor last year). Notice that in the return leg after silvio jumped in and carlo had to play two strikers we fell apart and ultimately got knocked out!
But I have to agree about Dorahsoo. He contributed more in the 10/15mins he was on last night than Pirlo has for the past couple of games. He ran himself wild when he came on and that ball to Kaka was perfectly placed and weighted. Look fantastic so he did.
I wouldnt say Dhorasoo is playing much better then Pirlo ... Pirlo still is better and more experienced in the game , but I agree that Dhorasoo should switch each game with pirlo , should be more intresting to see.
I dont know why berlusconi said it that he wanted to play with 2 strikers . Well berlusconi , you just pay attention with the prime minister job and we take care of football :D One striker , with kaka and rui in the team !! :star: :star:
how many time I should repeat the same thing -- [b] Rui and Kaka should play both from the start
no best formation IMO is
-------Dhorasoo-----Rui---------
--------Crespo------Kaka-------

Once again Dhorasoo played well. I only watched him in action against Brescia, but he convinced me there he deserves more minutes. Yesterday, like that Wednesday, he creates a clear chance and Kaká didn't missed like Tomasson, and was really cool to see almost the whole second unit midfield in the last 15 minutes. After the the confortable 2-0 lead, the team was a bit sluggish and with Dhorasoo, Brocchi, Ambro and Seedorf in the midfield we watched some action again.
Think the result yesterday bodes well for the rest of the season. :rock3:
Rui Costa probably played well yesterday because he actually got to play two games in a row. Its not easy to sit on the bench for a few games and then suddenly be asked to work miracles. I would prefer to see two strikers, if we have Crespo and Sheva both scoring with our solid defence then I cant see a better team.
Dharosso played really well, but by the time he came on the game was over so its extremely unfair to say he did more than Pirlo. The fact is shakhtar are a good team and the breakthrough was made with Pirlo on the pitch. Once they were 2-0 down and obviously going to push forward and leave spaces behind then it would be easy for fresh legs (Dharosso) to cause them problems. But, credit where it is due, hes played well two games in a row now. Well done to him, but its way to soon to start saying he should replace Pirlo.
Vikash Dhorasoo is a good player.
Every year, he starts season on the bench and after close it in the first team.
There is 2 years ago.....in champion's League, he played .... i can say that Inter remembers him again :firedev: :firedev: :firedev:

i think they were referring to the last game. Pirlo was kinda invisible. Dhorasso performed flawlessly in his last 10 mins.
Significant moves:
1. Makes a run on the left wing and lobs a perfect pass to Seedorf in front of the box who passes to Cafu. Seedorf's pass was poor, or Cafu would have latched onto it.
2. Dhorasso in DEFENCE now, preventing the ball from going out for a corner and under pressure from Donetsk players, makes a pass to Cafu to get the ball out back into attack.
3. Dhorasso in playmaker role now - fights off a shirt tug to thread a ball to Kaka who does his magic and makes it 4-0.
all this in 10 mins of play. Try to count anything Pirlo did in this game. Nothing comes to mind.

it's like defenders have never seen before.
they've seen what Kaka and Rui can do, but tehy look clueless round Dhorasoo.
deserves a full game.
Yeah, Dhorasoo has played 50 minutes of quality football all in all against Pirlo's 2 1/2 years, what a fool Carletto for keeping trust in Pirlo, one of the most consistent players at Milan :wallbang:
Dhorasoo is a decent player to come off the bench for now, he's a technical player and a useful squad member but let's not exaggerate.

I agree with you on the three points about Dhorasoo, especially in this game against Shakhtar Donesk. And I agree with you that Pirlo was not in his best of forms last Wednesday.
However, I am still puzzled with Dhorasoo's endless runs. For 10 minutes, he's done a great job. But for a solid 70 minutes? Let alone 90. Then again, he never had that chance to prove himself, does he? I don't doubt that he's a good player but I won't go as far as saying that he's comparatively better than Pirlo. As far as I can see, Pirlo did not commit any grave crime during the game apart from being ineffective with his ball possession and command in the midfield.
I would like to see Dhorasoo start in the Italian Cup games. For "big occasions" like the Serie A or European Cup games, I personally think he'd be better as a sub...for now, at least. I'm not undermining his whole ability as a top professional player. I'm just being apprehensive about the opinion that he's way better than the first XI midfielders we have now.

hmm funny how easily we forget what others have done when onthers shine....remember the goal that pirlo scored earlier this season...when he dribbled past 2-3 players before letting go a rocket of a shot.......
Yes pirlo has not been at his best...but he has been overwored alot this last 2 years.......but instead of us being thankful that we have players of quality to come off the bench and give good performances...we rather just sit and try to compare........how typical
I just want to see him more often that only in Italian Cup or in few 10 minutes of Champion's league.

you hit the nail on the head. Pirlo is very tired already. he played so many games and didn't even have a break after having to play so many games. why can't we give pirlo a rest? like 2 weeks or so and let rui costa and Dhorasoo take over him in the mean time. i am very sad to see him do well one match and disappear in another or play well one half then just lose the ball cheaply in another. he need a break and i hope ancelotti give him one or else he might just burn out. pirlo is one of the most consistent performers last season and he is just not himself this season.
Another great performance by Dhorasoo against Chievo. A full 90 min match and he grabbed the opportunity to impress. Niffy footwork, good ballhandling skills and great energy level. He will add a new dimension to the style of play.

shouldn't take personal offense when we criticise or compare players to another. haha. if you read through the post without letting the blood rush to your head, you'll see that i wasn't critcising pirlo one bit but instead comparing his performance in 80 mins in this ONE game vs Dhorasso's 10 mins in the SAME game. triniman - you aren't milan's biggest fan. that honour belongs to me. accept it :D

I thought that by comparing him with Pirlo is triggered by Bman's theory. I don't buy it.
IMHO, Dhorasoo is a very useful member in our squad, but Pirlo is JUST different. Milan has her own styles because we have different, indidivudal decisive players not only Pirlo but also Rui, Kaka`, Seedorf, etc.. just to name few... By simply saying that one player plays like s*it is very unrealistic and truly shameful.
Afterall, football is a team game. How many of people here have already forgetten that, putting the blame on one player? ;)
i don't think i said pirlo played like crap. why don't people read the post in question prior to posting about it? :)

He's posted on the Chievo post match thread....when should we expect a reply from you? :D j/k mate
I think that we sholud give Dhorasso more chance to play to prove himself, if he play bad then we should sell him, but if he play good then keep him in our squad.
I saw him against Chievo and he was very good, that doesn't mean if he was good against Chievo that he will be good and in other games, but give him more chance....
pirlo is not really his past self and I am only saying this because i know what he is capable of. but that is the cycle of Milan. when one player needs a little recovery time, someone else can pick up the slack and keep milan on top of things. in the chievo game case, it was vikash. :)
I was quite impressed by Dhorasoo in the Chievo match. He has great skills on the ball and very good field vision. You know, the people running the team aren't idiots. they buy players for a reason, always. He should play some more, and I am sure he will get his chances now. We need all the good players we can get, as all can contribute.

I quite agree, his number in the pecking order must have improved with his last few performances (Brocchi won't be playing much for a while, I guess).
I think Dhorasoo could become a super-sub, who is injected with 30 minutes to go, when opponents are getting tired. The little man is so quick! :)

I agree. The question is, 'what are you expecting from Pirlo?" because don't forget he is not longer the AMC but a DMC, a role that someone doesn't like him to be, considering him to be too weak and too many long ball (while, as you can see, not many DMC CAN do that and, furthermore, he doesn't do that as much...)
Let me tell you something.
A person always complain that he lost all 50-50 chances when he needs to choose 1 out of 2, but he never realizes that he only keeps concentrating on the lose side.
Same here. People only talka bout Pirlo losing long ball because they are screwing their eyes on that, but never see how many short SUCCESSFUL passes Pirlo has given.

Jeff you never fail to crack me up :grinser:
I really like D'horasoo. He has much skill and works very hard. I like his personality too. He is shy and quiet, never whined when he couldn't get chance to play, instead, he is confident with himself and always ready to show his value when he gets chance. (kinda like Pirlo in his first season, lol)
However...I don't see it's necessary to dismiss another player when someone else has good performance.
And I also feel the comparison is somewhat unfair(D'horasoo didn't even play in Pirlo's role against Chievo...) If you watch them closely, you'll see D'horasoo has more space than Pirlo. The opponents pay much more attention to Pirlo and also know him more. Pirlo is often marked closely by an opponent (e.g. the Brescia draw), while D'horasoo could run more freely.
btw, if you like D'horasoo's dribbling skill, better not expect him to play in Pirlo's role. A DMC won't get too much chance to dribble. Pirlo also has awesome dribble, but he seldom shows this.

Good post. I don't necessarily think Dhorasoo played in Pirlo's role, but as I said in the Chievo post game thread, what Dhorasoo did in the game was build team plays which is what Pirlo's role comprises. Pirlo has far more responsibility when playing than Dhorasoo, as when Dhorasoo is playing the "Pirlo job" is split up between more midfielders, whilst when Pirlo plays, the team adjusts its play to let Pirlo conduct the play and the other players bring "brilliance" to the play. This works better than when Dhorasoo is playing instead of Pirlo, as the other players get more freedom (I'm referring to when the team and Pirlo are in form). Dhorasoo can play in Pirlo's role, but he cannot do it as well as Pirlo. Sorry, this post sounds a little contradictory to your post, but I do very much agree, Dhorasoo did NOT play Pirlo's role in the Chievo match, although I do think his role had some of the important elements needed by Pirlo's role. Also, as has been pointed out, Dhorasoo is not put under as much pressure by the opposition as Pirlo when playing.
Its great to see players like Dhorasoo at Milan, who can do REALLY well when someone isn't performing and I hope people now understand why I said he was a great buy in the summer.
When an orchestra lacks a conductor, it can still play music, but when the conductor comes into the picture, only then does the orchestra have the elements needed to make great music.

Something I noticed...only three of my predictions for this year have gone wrong so far, as far as I know.
1) Arsenal aren't anywhere near as good as I thought, but it seems my analysis of them was giving more credit than they deserved.
2) Roma are poor, whilst I thought they'd be better.
3) Stam hasn't made the impact I'd hoped, but its for "other" reasons than one might have guessed.
However, I'm glad other predictions such as Real being weaker than thought and Chelsea being a big threat have come true.
And of course, I'm glad to have argued tooth and nail for Dhorasoo when we signed him
Milan: Hands off Dhorasoo
Wednesday 1 December, 2004
Milan have announced that Vikash Dhorasoo will not be sold during the January transfer window.
The Frenchman has been linked with a New Year exit but the club insist he will remain at the San Siro.
"Milan have never discussed the sale of Vikash Dhorasoo," the club confirmed on their website.
"Dhorasoo has not been included in any transfer negotiations because the Frenchman is not for sale."
The 31-year-old was signed by the Italian champions in the summer after his contract at Lyon expired.
Reports yesterday suggested that Portuguese giants Benfica were keen on snapping him up after Christmas.
However, the player now looks likely to remain after rediscovering some form in the last three weeks.

I hope that he will now get more time to play, not in first squad (because for me Pirlo is much better) but he can play as sub-player....

Milan Celtic game review, Source: Football Italia
...........Vikash Dhorasoo was perhaps Milan's best player on the night and his strong run set up Shevchenko only for Balde to steal away the ball at the last moment................
Dhorasoo, Once again receives praise from the Media, is this the changing point, where he will begin to start more often??? We may just have to wait and see...... :v408:
Froza Milan :whie:
I admit that i was one of the many fans who was critical about Dhorasoo's performances.I guess i'll have 2 eat my words.He's definitely shown his worth and proved his critics wrong.He is what i call a utility player.
FORZA MILAN!!!!!

Dhorasoo let our mids take rest..esp after Pirlo's summer, he has let Andrea to take it easy and regain his form with trainings without be in a rush.
The main useful characteristic of this player is the fact he joins the quality with the quantity of hard work..

like i said...Dhorasoo could be the un-noticing talent catching the Serie A by surprise like what Kaka did in his debut season.. Ancelotti is def doing magic with his team...making all the teams in Serie A to focus on Kaka...and later adding Dhorasoo game by game, so subtle-ly that they will just let their guards down when Dhor is on the ball...and Dhor will PUNISH them!!~ (like how Kaka impact the Serie A) ...he is un-doubtly our 'secret weapon' of the season :D

DHORASOO IDOL OF OUR CURVA :D

12-12-2004, 08:22
wahahha...good to hear that...maybe i should do 1 jersey with Dhorasoo too...keke..it will def catch many people in my country by surprise...i bet they dont even know which country Dhor came from..n when they realised it..my jersey would have been priceless by then :D
Dhorasso does it again - this time setting up goal number 6 in the Milan mauling of the Viola. yet another game where he was on the pitch for a meare 5 mins before he split open the viola defence. Ashwin mentioned here he is a utility player. He's far more than that my friend. At Lyon, he was instrumental in winning the title for them. He's in the mould of a playmaker. Solid Solid signing by Milan!
I'm glad that he is doing well....
not just for the team, but once again prove that our transfer season turns out to be a great one too.
All that thanks to LEONARDO !!!! :respect:
I thought I was Vikash´s only fan, I can see now im not alone.. :heart:
Does anyone know why he is not in the french squad? I was at the Ireland France match in Paris in October and Dacourt, Mavubva and Diarra all palyed at some stage in midfield during that match for france. Like he is better than them.
Without doubt that he is better than them, but raymond domenech says that he is too old and even if he called him the 8 september its because he hadn't the choice " j'ai racle les fonds de tiroir".
are you french ejilan?
what age is dhoraso?
interesting that domenech thinks he is too old
personally i think he would be a good choice alongside vieria, or maybe someone to bring off the bench

Domenech seems to be quite the motivator. :rolleyes: I thought Pires was out of line with his criticisms of the coach, but now it seems he has a point.
Almilan, Dhorasoo is 31.
31 is not that old though i thought he was around 29, in that France Ireland match i was at Roy Keane played brillantly at 33 in midfield
Yes Guy i'm french I belong Dhorasoo 7 years ago.
And each game that i saw was always super.
Yes Guy i'm french
I must complement your country, ye were wonderful hosts, it was a great weekend, I found French people really friendly.
Who do you think will win the group Ireland or France?
We are joint top at moment, we are ahead on goal difference and ye still have to come to Dublin.
also Dhorasso is after been awarded the golden star which is the best player in the french league last year. congrats to him
DHorasso pulling some magic vs Lecce. a superb move created unleashes Kaka to make the score 2-0 (Crespo)

Player of the Week: Dhorasoo (Milan) Friday 7 January, 2005
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Vikash Dhorasoo has certainly picked the best time possible to show Milan what he is capable of. Having arrived at the San Siro in the summer on a free transfer, the former Lyon man was already being tipped with a January exit.
That is no longer the case after a string of impressive performances in the Rossoneri midfield. The Frenchman started to live up to his potential before the Christmas break but underlined his ability in the Week 17 win against Lecce.
Dhorasoo was immense during the 5-2 victory. His box-to-box style allows his more creative colleagues to flourish, while he can be counted on to quickly turn defence into attack. There is no doubt that he could become a key figure as the Italian outfit look to retain Lo Scudetto and win the Champions’ League.

wow, Dhorasoo now is doing more than even I expected (and I expected a lot from the moment I heard we got him). If I was Seedorf, I'd be a bit worried about my starting position
Vikash Dhorasoo was always confident that he would prove himself to be a good signing for Milan.
The Frenchman has taken his time to settle at the San Siro but he is now starting to impress for the champions.
"I wasn’t scared of playing in a new League such as the Italian one," he said. "I knew it was going to be tough but I was also aware that I would have to be patient."
Dhorasoo initially struggled to get a game under Carlo Ancelotti but he’s really caught the eye recently.
His latest fine display came in yesterday’s 5-2 defeat of Lecce, after he was handed a rare starting shirt.
"I started a match at the San Siro for the first time and I’ll never forget that moment," added the 31-year-old.
"I have to be satisfied with the victory but also with my own individual performance during the game.
"It is fantastic to perform in front of these fans, supporters who stayed close to me during the difficult times."
Dhorasoo, who was linked with a January switch to Benfica, joined Milan in the summer on a free transfer from Lyon.
If Vikash don't be selected in next French Team game, I'll think Ireland will be first.
vikash dorhasoo is fantastic, yet i doubt the stubborn french NT coach will have him in the squad.

I have a feeling he will get back in the team. if he continues to play well for milan he will be impossible to leave out. it is very hard to call between Ireland and France, it will be interesting. i think though who ever comes second will probably still make it through via the playoffs.
by the way that girl on your avator is gorgeous
Thank You guy ! :mrgreen:

Dhorasoo is playing more and more and more, he was patient with Milan, and some of us showed our respect by defending him, and asking other to wait with thier criticism. Now maybe, Dhorasoo must again be patient. I agree that it is no fun waiting for a great player to have the oppurtunity, but Look at what he has accomplished at Milan over the last Two months. Now the Crowds are calling his name........ Dhorasoo!
Dont exactly know why I like him, maybe its because he's French.... :pp20:
:beer: These two are simply the Best!!!! Oh Dhorasoo Too!

he is back in the french squad for a friendly, he deserves it
certainly does, has been outstanding of late.
Given the players in that NT squad selection, he has a pretty good chance of playing in the game too :)
What a Wonderful match he did !!!!!
All the journalists said he was the "Man of the game" !!!!
I recommend the game to all of you.
sounds like dhorasso played well, it will be interesting to see does he keep his place for the qualifers. him getting back into the team could be bad news for Ireland though.
roll on sptember 7th cant wait

Will Dhorasso replace Pirlo during his recovery? Its unfortunate that Pilro is injured, and I hope that he has a speedy recovery. At the same time I hope that Dhorasso is given the oppurtunity to showcase his skills with repeated game time. Also, oppurtunity for Ambro, but I hopw that it goes to Dhorasso. He played some great games over the last two months, with many good ratings, not only from me!
Pirlo, I wish for a speedy recovery and Dhorasso may have the oppurtunity to display his talents, and succeeds. :rone:
Carlo prefers Ambrosini instead of Dhorasoo, it's sad but... we can't do anything, let see how Milan plays this Sunday against Reggina...

Yes He played a great first half but second was not that good.
I think that Dhorasoo will replace Pirlo.

I didn't know much about Dhorasoo before Milan signed him, but he is one of my favourite Milan players now. I have seen a few games in which he has played, as I rely on eurosport to show Milan games. I have been very impressed by him and his overall contribution to games.
He isn't just a skilful player with lots of pace, but he also tracks back and works hard for the team, trying to get in the odd tackle as well. The most impressive feature of his game for me is his ability to hold onto the ball and rarely lose it or give away possession with a wayward pass. The ball seems to stick to him and you fell like he could take on the whole opposing team if he really felt like it. A great player, shame that we keep playing Ambrosini
Played a few mins in the 2nd leg against Man U, and almost immediately started a pirlo-esque attack initiation. awesome talent. he's like our secret weapon :D
