Taht might work. I read from another forum taht there is actually some real possibility that Dida is leaving. I dno't know how reliable that rumor is though.

well, we all know that's not for the future. it is more of a short-term solution due to our dire financial situation. Dida has not been at his prime in the past years, but I actually (and always) believe he was a world-class goalkeeper. a 70%-in-form Dida easily beats a 100%-in-form Abbiati, unfortunately, in the recent years, Dida has become 50% some days, and 40% some other days, and very rarely 80%. Still, unlike some members here, I still think that he is potentially and realistically better than Kalac and Storari (I can't compare him with Roma, as I am not so familiar with this newcomer), it is just that his salary determines that he has to go, which should be the best solution for the club for the time being.

He lost his place last year in Monaco because of some mistakes + injuries since 2 years + a younger and better GK to compete for the starting place.
So while he is a good GK, I don't think we'll count on him to be our starting GK ... and if we keep Dida (and Storari but he seemed to have become #2 in the hierarchy of the GKs), that means that our management wants 4 potential GKs for the first team ... |
I agree with Jeff. I feel that the management hasn't been impressed with Storari, and since the Derby comes too soon, Roma will probably play as our #1.
