LOL...agree

And if he really is looking to the future, why areal years like Ambro, MVB and Slowdorf resigns and let a younger mid in Pirlo left for free.

Pirlo left because he didnt want to sign a 1 year contract extension...we didnt force him out. He knew the policy, and decided to leave.

I wish he had stayed, but it was his choice. He is playing quite well for Juve, and even if he wouldnt be an automatic starter in Allegri's system, I think he would have been a valuable resource off the bench.

Seedorf, as much as I think he is past his prime, accepted the terms on offer, and so stayed, as did Ambro and MVB. The latter has been very important for us, while Ambro is a good replacement for MVB....we should just avoid playing all 3 together at ALL costs.

Seedorf, if rested enough, and played strategically, remains one of the BEST players in the world, and so is an asset we have no real replacement for at present.

The point is not whether or not these players are useful or accepted Milan terms. Rather it is about thinking about now and the future. IF they are indeed thinking about THE FUTURE, then they would have signed players in their prime or is about to hit their prime last summer instead of giving out 1 yr contract to players who are on the decline.

Casemiro: Similar to Felipe Melo...? If that's so I'm not sure I would want him at Milan. Hopefully he's a lot better.

I badly want Milan to sign Eriksen!!! He is amazing, fast, great dibbler, has good vision, and scores many goals!
He would be the best player to replace Seedorf and the best option for Milan!! He is a little bit similar to Xavi and Iniesta...
Our midfield of Boateng, Aquilani, Nocerino, Emanuelson, Merkel, Flamini, El Shaarawy, probably Montolivo and Eriksen would be awesome!

Other players if we can't sign Eriksen:
Lucas, Oscar, Götze, Reus, Hazard, Hamsik

The only player I do not want to see in Milan jersey is Ganso, because he is slow an injury prone, he is similar to Pirlo!

I think we musn't sign any more DM, because in modern game, every midfielder have to have defensive and attacking qualities as well, like in Barcelona's midfield!
I wouldn't sign Gattuso and Pirlo nowadays, because their game is one dimensional and they are too slow for the modern games!

I still believe if Melo had a right coach, he would have been much better. But that's just my opinion.

Melo is a very dirty player, and i would never want him in Milan.
While MVB is intelligently dirty, Melo is just uncontrollably viciously dirty.

[xudong]

true, which is why mvb can pretty much shine anywhere he plays, while melo will certainly need a coach that can keep him at bay. I feel that coach like mourinho could get the best out of him.

and i like your choice of word "uncontrollably viciously dirty". melo is like a lunatic sometimes, just like real madrid's pepe who kicked the player like a mad dog while he was down.

Allegri is a players' coach too,he almost succeed at bringing the best of every player under his disposal.boateng,robinho,aquilani.... all did not have a successful last spell of career, and he revived them. if casimero arrives, allegri will reshape him very well. and I'm hoping he do the same to taiwo.

Juventus offers 20 mln plus elia or krasic for gotze. that's an approximately 30 mln offer,an acceptable price for a Mr.X buy!

Aquilani, Taiwo and ElS came in....on an austerity budget. Hamsik was overpriced, Messi unavailable....who else could we have gotten (aside from Montolivo who I think we will get free, or on the cheap in Jan)?
