The best I don´t know, but we can improve him. My problem is... They want A LOT of money for a project! Don´t get me wrong, he´s very good going forward, but not to the point to be worth that amount of money.

It´s just my opinion and it has nothing to do with being Brazilian(no I need to repeat it here, now ), but Marcelo can really take over a game by the LB position, and thats rare. But I still didn´t see it in Coentrão. I think Bonera defends better as RB than CB but you´re right, they aren´t good...

Criscito probably already solid defensively, but not explosive in attack, If you remember the World Cup, I felt he played very conservatively...

Agree, and thats why I wasn´t that high on him before. But now I think it has to do more with coaches holding him back than talent to attack.

This season I saw some special things from Criscito in attack. Nothing like Marcelo, but I have a feeling he could be good in a big team like Milan if he could get some freedom...
