Any team would be happy to sign guys like T. Silva, Kjaer, Cissohko, Pastore, Hamsik, Santacroce, Dzeko, Honda, Krasic, Jovetic, Mordic, Corluka and Gourcuff before they become the players they are today. But the problem with that for MIlan is that their scouting department is really crap beside Leo. On top of that they really don't like risking anything over 5M on unproven talent-Leo's recommendations were exceptions, and lastly, their development of young player is horrible.
Lets ignore the Gourcuff case for now. Can you imagine Kjaer and Santacroce having any play time in Milan 3 years ago under Carlo? Given that they both are unknown players, of which, Santacroce was playing in Serie B before hand. The answer will be not much, as Carlo would not have risk playing them instead of the great Kala, Favalli and Bonera. Do you think Dzeko will have any playing time when Carlo when they were Gila, RO, Pippo and then R99. What about Honda, Jovetic, Pastore, Hamsik, Krasoc? They will be just like Gourcuff in Milan.
Point is that in order to find the next great/good players that make us diehard fans go WOWWWW, thats KID is amazing......Sure, for every Dzeko or Jovetic, there will be a Saviola(good player but not close to the hype) and Anderson(though I think he is being misuse but unless he starts playing well, he is still a flop in my book) Milan need to take risks on young players and have great scouts. Sadly, that will not be the case. Since the MGT is very conservative and have no faith in their own scouts.
