Apparently he has already booked a medical at Milanello at 6 pm on Monday, just the day after the Spanish season ends. A great signing, I think. He's an excellent player, and I think we will have a lot of use for him.
----------Kaka--------
---Emerson---Gattuso---
----------Pirlo----------
Looks like a very, very strong midfield to me...
old enough to be of interest to milan. 31 (04.04.1976)
Emerson is 100% mercenary....
...but very useful one. Milan made a very good transfer !

Pirlo feeding the balls
Gattuso and Emerson holding play up as the work force

emerson is a great player still, I have seen the last 3 or 4 real madrid games and "the puma" has been dominant, I agree with him and gattuso our midfield will be the best in europe
Dont want this merda player wearing our jersey. Our management have no forward planning.

While Emerson isnt exactly a youngster, he has played well (despite Real´s fans barracking him recently) wherever he has played...and he always seems to play on winning teams..
He is vastly experienced, and really isnt being bought as a "starter" but someone to give Pirlo (I think) a rest, maybe when we are controlling the game, or when we play against smaller teams.
Emerson is a world cup winner, and scudetto and probably La Liga champion as well...
He isnt a long term aquisition, he is a player bought to play for us for a couple of years, while the midfield transitions.

why do you accept Ronaldo and Favalli wearing our jersey and Vieri in the past plus Seedorf,pippo and Pirlo? they have all played for Juve or Inter

"Merda player" means "sh...y player"
I guess thats what Tony ment. If he ment what you think he ment, then you gave him good answer :bri:

Absolutely rite ;) After David Suazo if also came to ACM, it would b disastrous :mad:
I don't know why he is linked with Milan and u some fans here are happy to see him becoming a Milan player????????? :d55:
We have Seedorf, Ambro, Gourcoff, Brocchi and ofcourse Pirlo and yet u guys want him?????
Show some :respect: to the players who won the CL, I am talking abt Seedorf and Ambro specially :)

Show some to the players who won the CL, I am talking abt Seedorf and Ambro specially
about seedorf even more as Emerson will play on his expense.
so he is a short comparison:
Shooting:seedorf>emerson
Passing :Seedor>Emerson
creativity:Seedorf>Emerson
skill? Seedorf>Emerson
so why is he gonna replace him?:dontkn:

simply we donot want Emerson Because we have
1- Seedorf 31 years
2- Massimo Ambrosini 30 years
3- Yoann GOURCUFF 20 years
Emerson 31 years so what we get new from him :w154:
I simply FAIL to understad why european managers are so fond of Emerson... he's slower than a slug, he can't create, he can't pass, in short, he's useless.

Nordahl: The same could be said about Rino...but the both tackle and win the ball quite well, and I beg to differ...he may not be Pirlo, but Emerson isnt a "bad" passer of the ball, and arguably is a better passer than Rino.
Emerson is not coming as a starter (if he indeed arrives) but as a Pirlo sub...simple as that.

you failing to understand something that others see ... does that make him a bad player? ... or does it make him a player who YOU think is bad but he proves the opposite year in and year out.
just because you think in a certain way that doesn't mean that Emerson will not be a good move for Milan, just like it doesn't mean that just because you adore a certain player, he will necessarily be a success at Milan ... or at least, better than Emerson.
btw, the move seems to be put on hold anyway thanks to Real's antics regarding kaka, so no need to go balistis just yet.

Also cant loose 1 on 1 duels....
BTW: Liverpool really had bought Lucas Pezzini? If not, that's certainly a very good deal. Otherwise, Edmilson is not at all a bad idea, and I guess we can also try someone like Yaya Touré, for instance.

We need a striker and a left winger.I want milan to get into the bid for arjen robben.Then bid for martins the former inter striker he is as fast as eto'o.
I think we need a left fullback, rather than a left winger - one that is maybe a bit more defensive-minded than janku. It would be great if we could get Zambrotta, but it looks highly unlikely. Martins is insanely fast, shame he can't finish well.
Who needs idiot Emerson, having already Gattuso and Ambrosini?

Oh well. Emerson stinks, and this gets us even further from signing r10.. Any news on him anyways? And so much for rejuvenating the squad with young players, I don't call shevchenko (turning 31) and Emerson(31) young. :zany:

I don't know because i support Madrid in Spain i watched him a lot this year and he was in very bad shape. But the transfer will go on as Schuster doesn't have him in his plans.

Exactly, when Emerson was substituted Real was playing faster in a more simple way... :5ok:

It was the case with every team where Emo played, not only Real.
But still Capello and Brazilian coaches used to prefer to have him in the team rather than not.
I don't think the idea of Emerson being a regular in Milan is a good one. He was always slow and at 31/32 he's even slower. But you have to admit that this man gets the job done defensively. Milan needs a squad depth. You'll need at least 2 more very good Dm's to be competitive. If you have only Brocchi and injury prone Ambrosini then you'll ether find Gattuso exausted at the end of campaign or you'll suffer a lot if you let Brocchi do the job while Rino is getting a rest against the minor teams. You may dislike Emerson's way of play ( i do also) but he's still classes above Brocchi and you'll find him very useful when Milan will defend the result or when you'll play against smaller serie A teams.
Milan has a fantastic starting line-up. You should have realized by now that the substitutes can not be super stars like your starters ( that's why some of you should get on the ground and realize that you don't put Essien or Vieira on the bench to replace Gattuso). But you should have also realized that with the substitutes you have, you'll hardly be competitive everywhere, especially in a league with 38 rounds (that's why, in this case, you need someone experienced like Emerson on the bench, not Brocchi .....remember ManUtd in Manchester in last minutes and how much Brocchi's inexperience could have cost Milan).
That is why you need experienced players like Emerson who will play mostly 10-15 matches as starter and come in on 10-15 more matches as a sub.
After all , we are still talking about a player with 73 caps for the Brazilian NT, who was winning championships everywhere he went.
Emerson will only make Milan stronger.....Tony got it spot on.
We just can't afford to have Brocchi as Rino's or Ambro's sub....that's simply ridiculous
Even if we really signed emerson, Ambrosini could very well lose his place to the experienced Brazilian

Your idea of bringing Emerson would be great but what I am afraid of, Emerson could play more important role than what you have written above. But actually this is a dilemma for me.
If Emerson comes, I am afraid, Ancelotti would put him in Pirlo's position and move Pirlo to the left side of the midfield area (Seedorf's postition) which means Pirlo, Emerson and Gattuso play together which also means Gourcuff WILL SIT ON THE BENCH. In my opinion, Goucuff is actually already ready to take Seedorf's position regularly but that's not what Ancelotti thought/thinks. Without Emerson in our team, there is more pressure to Ancelotti to use Gourcuff because we dont have any other attacking-oriented/creative midfielder in our squad except Gourcuff and old Seedof. So, Gourcuff would have bigger chance to play more as starting line-up next season.
But on the other side, using both Pirlo and Emerson gives a balance formation between attacking and defending (and also Seedorf/Goucuff can come in on the second half of the game) which for me, an ideal formation to use with Ronaldo in our starting line-up (the midfielders can hold/steal the ball from the opponents and also pass/deliver accurately to either Kaka or the strikers and let Kaka and Ronaldo play with the ball).
Goddamn it, Emerson is just plain AWFUL, cannot believe he's joining us... btw, who's the next in line in terms of brazilian footballing garbage? Roberto Carlos? Lord have mercy...

Lol, calm down. Give Emo a benefit of the doubt. Afterall, you were wrong about Ronaldo, you could be wrong about Emerson and he could prove to be useful.
As for the next in line Brazilian garbage...... Galliani did mention a 6th option attacker who is non-Eu.
Why not Julio Baptista ? :grinser:
Non-Eu, plays as an attacker among other positions he covers up, Brazilian, owned by Real like many other players Milan was/is after (Ronaldo, Emerson, Cassano).
He fits perfectly :stupid:
Julio Baptista mentioned on the latest Corriere......

Having Emerson is great, since he will add depth to our midfield and not to mention strength and power. With that in mind, he is also someone who does dirty works on the field. I really don't see why people here do not want a player like Emerson.
It might be true that De Rossi, Diarra, or even Essien are better option, but none of them would accept a bench role and none of them are available.
so, emerson is heading to milan then? I thought the deal was off, but now you are all talking about it?
Lol, calm down. Give Emo a benefit of the doubt. Afterall, you were wrong about Ronaldo, you could be wrong about Emerson and he could prove to be useful.
But Ronaldo is whole different story, dude... you see, the man is a master at reinventing himself, he's really like an alien, or something... :zany:
BTW: transfer expert Bronzetti is saying that Emerson will stay at Real, GOD BLESS HIM!

Emerson we don`t need you.
You better stay in real madrid.It`s a losers team that fits you perfectly
What's the latest with the "Boar" :) ? Is he coming or no? As far as I remember, he is already non-EU. Personally, I think he would be great for our midfield, but dont know why things are not moving. Rumours have been rife since the start of the transfer season..
If the board just wants a strong man to kick the enemy's attacking midfielders and forwards butts, why not sign a young italian boar instead?
Because there can only be ONE "Boar", Nordahl---and that's the one and only, your compatriot, Emerson!!
Just kidding, I've always been for picking up young Italian women :) (Freudian slip), no I mean talent, but at this stage it's probably best to sign some young players and "park" them elsewhere on loan. What we need now is the finished article, who can step in during high tension CL games and perform. And at age 31, I think Emerson would do well for us.

TO be honest, Milan already has tried signing young players and let them sit on their bench but they can't perform when called upon.
Donati and Dalla Dona, both players are solid and get their jobs done, but they just could not crack the Milan lineup.
Thats also why I believe Milan starting 11 or top 15 players are pretty much set and it will take a superstar to make himself in the top 15 spots, thus Milan do need squad depth and I believe only veterans that wants to win will accept roles on the bench.
I found this on Channel 4. Enjoy.
Emerson: Come get me, Milan!
Saturday 21 July, 2007
Emerson has been told he can leave Real Madrid and the Brazilian admits he’s determined to join Milan.
“The four players I am thinking of for my midfield are Fernando Gago, Mahamadou Diarra, Ruben De la Red and Jose Luis Guti,” said new boss Bernd Schuster.
“The club knows that the door is open for Emerson to leave. Fabio Capello requested him and he is perfect for his style of play, but I have other ideas. I hope another figure arrives instead, someone more creative.”
‘Puma’ was brought to Madrid by Capello, who worked with him at both Roma and Juventus, so the future seems to be a return to Italy.
“I am ready to evaluate offers that come my way. Money is not everything in life,” Emerson told ‘Radio Gaucha’ in Brazil.
“Everything is difficult at Real Madrid. I am in the richest club in the world, but there is far more organisation at Milan.
“It all works like clockwork with the Rossoneri, both on and off the field. You never hear controversy, everyone wants to play for Milan.”
The experience in Spain has not left Emerson with a positive view of the Madrid hierarchy, who fired Capello days after winning a seemingly impossible Liga title.
“I paid the price for being one of Capello’s favourite players. I’ve never seen anything like it in my whole career.”
