Banter 2009/2010

IT is not that easy mate. On top of that, I doubt Milan wants to spend 12M on a CB, as in Berlu's mind, the team still have Kala, Favalli, Bonera and Alberterzzi waiting in the wing.

It matters little if he has the 12 m Euro buyout clause in his contract. What if other clubs are willing to pay more? If so, then the only way we can have the upper hand is if he prefers to play for us, just like Dzeko. And to my knowledge, he never says anything like that.

All I'm saying is that it doesn't really matter if Zamparini dislikes Milan or not, because of that clause. Also, it doesn't matter wether other clubs offer more than us, Palermo will still have to accept the offer if it's 12 M euro's.

I don't know if we should pick him up just yet. We still need full backs more in my opinion, I guess it depends on Thiago Silva's injury. Regardless, if we're prepared to pay 12M euro's, then Kjær's transfer would become VERY realistic, and tbh it's probably one of the best options out there when it comes to CB's.

I'm very glad that Gattuso got his extension. He deserves that.

About market, if this rumors about Pandev are correct, he would be a great addition, he can replace Pato or Ronaldinho. If we are going for "former" Lazio players it would be good if we somehow get Ledesma too. He's a perfect cover for Pirlo.

With these 2, and one CB cover, we would be the best team in Europe.

About Kjaer, he's very young and I think it would be wasteful to buy him now, because he would rarely played.

I think Kjaer will play plenty here in Milan. He might not necessarily overtake Silva and Nesta, but he is much better than Bonera, Favalli, Kaladze and Onyewu. Given the number of games we play every year and the physical condition of Nesta, Kjaer will get plenty of chances to play. If we can actually get him for 12 mil, then there is no reason at all why we should not be moving in on him. That is such a low price for such a promising youngster who plays an important position and can play for us for at least 10 years.

I'm not sure about that, buddy. I've read that Kjaer is under contract for the next five years. If some club wants to buy him within the five years, they need to pay the buy-out clause inserted in his contract.

If we're the only club that's interested in buying him and we're willing to pay 12 M Euro, then Palermo can't do anything about it.

But if there are more than one clubs, then Palermo can sell to the highest bidder so long as it isn't less than 12 M Euro. After all, according to the contract, Palermo is the owner of Kjaer's service.

But that's to my knowledge, Christian. I could be totally wrong about the concept of the buy-out clause though...

I think we should not be looking to invest in the CB department. We don't have any quality FB's at the moment on either side. That should be the #1 priority. We also need a striker/winger and it certainly is not promising that after 3 days of training with Adiyiah now they believe they need a different striker.

It seems that we are being seriously linked with Pandev and Di Natale. Judging from previous experiences, when Milan are trying to get linked with several players so quickly, it means they might have a surprise up their sleeve. Honestly nothing would be better than signing Aguero or Zarate.

Leonardo said clearly that Adiyah is an investment for the future.

Does anybody knows what is going on with Pandev's contract with Lazio? I've read somewhere that he terminated his contract or filled termination form. Apparently Lazio refused to let him go for lower than 19 mil. If we could get him under 10, it would be a bargain. He doesn't want to play for Lazio, so it's better for them to get something for him before his contract expires.

Also, Ledesma? His situation is similar to Pandev's if I'm right? We were linked with him before.

he's trying to terminate his contract. A tribunal will be held soon. If it happens he can walk on a free

I honestly think that we will not buy anyone , sure we'll get beckham but the only way I see someone else arriving is if it is for free . So if Pandev can leave Lazio for free and wants to come to Milan and only Milan then maybe we might get him , I just don't see any investment coming this is a pessimistic view I know but it's also a realist view. We do need wingbacks both left and right and cover for Pato or Dinho and Pirlo thats 3 or 4 players if we invested 40 million in 3 players it would make us so much more solid and well equipted but only if the players work out obviously.

The problems were players like Emerson, Oddo, Dida, Ronaldo, Sheva-traitor, Vieri, Kaladze etc., people who Galliani overpayed and who gave nothing or very little to Milan in last years.

Gattuso cut his previous salary by a mere 10%, then bitched to the media about his lack of playing time (while on the injured list, no less), which got him the extension he wanted. In addition, he's become predictable because opponents are seeing through his hollow "badass" schtick.

At this moment he's no more special than anyone else on the squad.

I agree with Blacktop 100%, and let's not forget how he bitched after Istanbul and wanted to go to England, and then again I think to Bayern or somewhere else. He's always the first one to want to change teams whilst he is not good enough to be playing for the starting 11 any more.

Accidentaly I just saw youtube clips of Crudelli and Curva Sud in "Non si vende Kaka'" times... So I remembered not to forget Galliani and Berlusconi what they have done with Sheva and Kaka' and will most likely do with Pato! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IyPap...eature=related

.... you and your money! Galliani doesnt deserve the result Milan has right now and this fight for lo scudetto! Aldough, I do not consider 2nd place a good reslut for Milan, ever!

It good San Siro is still empty, I support that decision by Milan fans, they know what they are doing, and havent sold themselves for few victories in a row!

Sorry about this, I had to do it.

News: Kaladze will stay ( of course, why would we sell such player ) and Astori/Diniz will arrive.
