Ericksen reminds you of kaka??!! that's something new.

no offence...but he certainly is more like kaka than fabregas...fabregas is a classic CM who sits deep and provides the killer assist to his strikers, while Eriksen is a pure CAM who drifts around a lot, has pace, is good with either feet ....dont u think Kaka also had these qualities.....

[will4li]

But ericksen doesn't have kaka's biggest weapon "speed with ball",and this quality makes kaka ballon de'or calibre.without this weapon,kaka is an average player.

By the way,Did you see his game a lot? you definitely deserve some credit for being a long time milan fan,even before sacchi's time.Whoa!!!!!!!

No offense but I believe many of us here had been a Milan fan since 80s.

You simplely said erikssen will be a ballon de'or candidate caliber player just like fabregas.well! you made it loud and clear,we will wait and see.

Well nobody here said so and stop "simplely" interpret my words. First, nobody here said he'd be a ballon d'or candidate, neither would Bale nor Torres. Second, Fabregas was never and will never be a ballon d'or candidate. Third, Eriksen will probably won ballon d'or faster than a Bale or Torres transfer to Italy. Fourth, "simplely" is not even a word.

It won't be very difficult to find robihno's replacement these days.if there is a robinho+15 mln for gotze deal,I won't hesitate a second.I also made it loud and clear.

Did my words fell deaf on your ears? It's not just about skill; it's about lot of things including the possibility of the deal, adaptability of players into environment/tactics etc. Name me one player in modern time from Great Britain or Germany who did well in Italy.

Also it is contradictive:

It won't be very difficult to find robihno's replacement these days.

then

if there is a robinho+15 mln for gotze deal,I won't hesitate a second.

Do you think it's easy to get a Robinho+15M for Gotze? Yes if it's possible I'd also consider it, but will it be there in the first place? Easy to say there are replacements for Robinho; in truth, you'll never meet his substitute in our price range. The closest, cheapest thing near Robinho we'd ever get is Balotelli and I won't even want to start a debate about him. Man, these kinds of deal could only happen in Football Manager.

Well, you agree gotze=robinho+15 mln.I'm happy about that.

About the rest part of your post,I would say "Let time speaks".

By the time one of those happens you wouldn't even still be here. And dude, I really had not seen any advantage if one of those really happens beside bragging here, which is pointless except maybe for any of little kids. I just starting to realize that in this internet everybody can speak anything they want without consequences, so from now on I'll let you daydreaming freely.

[will4li]

Man! I will be here,to witness the day ericksen's pricetag rocketing straight to 50 mln. when that day comes,you got accept a sincere bow from me!

Goetze is great talent, his dribbling, pace, vision and passing is great to watch and however his finishing is weak(same as Robinho) (in reality, Robinho scored 14 goals in Serie A last season, however Götze scored 6 goals in Bundesliga last season)

11 assists(same as Ribery, Vidal, Muller) (Only Tiffert had more assits than him, 17 assists a season) and 6 goals Götze had last season.

i'd like to have Götze with Robinho. Robinho is a great player, there is no logic signing a great player if we sell a great player. What counts? a great player came, a great player left.

We should talk about our needs for next season and what Milan can do for this needs?

Ambrosini is more than finished, Gattuso is not same Gattuso, Van Bommel is in decline this season. Both Nocerino and Aquilani are doing good at LCM and RCM. we can discuss if its enough or not.

Emanuelson has only place as a Left FB in this squad if you ask me, he is not ideal LCM or trequartista.

Let Merkel grow at Genoa and dont touch him for 2 season, he needs to improve on weak points. There is no point to sit him on Milan bench.

Strasser needs to play with regularity at Lecce as well.

Antonini, Bonera, Ambrosini doesnt have place at Milan anymore.

-1 world class GK(Piscitelli is enough to be 3rd GK) if Abbiati plays like this.
-Young and quality 4th choice CB to replace Bonera and Yepes.
-Van Bommel replacement.
-a quality LCM to replace Seedorf at starting line up who can also play as trequartista, maybe moving Boateng to CM's.

[will4li]

Mostly agree!but the problem is that's basicly the same quality,we don't improve at all.we'd better fight for scudetto mainly.

I"m still in love with berlu's Mr.X plan.

[abbeyleemania]

Nocerino is good player, maybe he is not enough to be a starter for CL winner side, however still good alternative for midfield trio. i'd keep him.

Aquilani, he is doing well at RCM. Keep him.

Van Bommel, he is in decline compared to last season. Let him go.

Ambrosini, he is more than finished. he doesnt have a place at Milan anymore.

Gattuso, he is injured until now. He can leave for Anzhi.

Seedorf, as a bench warmer, he can stay.

Emanuelson, good to have him at bench as he can offer more option.

i think that we will sign Montolivo in january. Montolivo, Nocerino, Aquilani, Eriksen as LCM and trequartista signing, Seedorf, Flamini if we renew his contract.

Montolivo s good for CDM role, but yet i'd rather to have Fernando, Sandro or M'Vila for that role.

---------------Montolivo----------
-----Aquilani---------Eriksen-----

--------------Fernando-----------
-------Aquilani--------Eriksen----

i didnt see Casemiro at Van Bommel role, he plays at different role at Sao Paolo, i think RCM is more ideal to him, if we consider him as a box to box midfielder.

Let me say, Milan didnt spend this year, cuz Napoli didnt sell Hamsik to us, Fabregas wanted Barcelona e.t.c. Above all, Milan let Pirlo go, who was a bench player. Milan signed Aquilani to replace a bench warmer. i hope Milan will spend next season, cuz we will have room.

[will4li]

I hope milan spend next season too,we are supposed to have a relatively large budget next year cuz we didn't spend this summer.
