d) Striker: Well, Pato is here in Jan, but this should be Pippo´s last season, and with R99 so injury prone, methinks we need another proven player, thus dropping Gila to the bench, where I think he belongs, based on current form.

Yeah, u re right. But for next season, we can not do much in Winter Mercato.
a) I hope we have Abbiati, Kalac can not make Dida "scared" to lost is pos. Though Dida made my heart beat faster many times before, it is hard to find any better GK that we can afford to buy. With a good sub like Abbiati, Dida must be more concentrated.
b) Yes, with both Diamond and Xmax formation, we can not have good wing play without good attaking fullback. This season, Oddo, Bonera or Simic and Kala or Favalli (may be Maldini) are defensive RB and LB; Cafu, Janku, Serginho are attacking wing backs. But next season, Cafu and Serghinho out, Simic and Favalli, too, Maldini retired so Kala must be a CB. What'll remain are Bonera & Oddo (not proven and a defensive type RB) and Janku (bad at defend), so we actually need an attack RB and a defend LB (Grimi ?)
c) Without Pirlo, we must have Kaka&Seedorf and may be Gourcuff with Xmax tree, I can not think of any replacement for him now, one must know very much about Milan style (cost time) and process great passing skill (cost money) to play like him. I remember we lost the Serie A 02/03 (we were winter champion with great form) for Pirlo to develope his style.
d) Agreed, but we can not do anything except let Gilardinho have another 5, 6 chances.
We need many but all we can do now is hoping. Lets hope that we are just warming up, good and best thing awaiting ahead
