In today's Gazzetta newspaper (not the site), Sacchi recommends Udinese's Quaglierella to Milan.

well, IMO Henry is one of the best players on earth, pity that we didnt sign him but its a done deal anyways.

What little i've seen of Quaglierella has impressed me, so he'd be a good purchase. I think all i really want from our signings are players that are hungry and desperate to win with us. No more unmotivated players just going through the motions happy just to collect their paycheck at the end of the week.

Couldn`t agree more ... Our current players are hard to motivate, they`ve basically won everything there is to win... Couple of highly motivated players can boost the moral of the others.!!!! smth like Gatusso does for the others!!!

Transfers, transfers but no transfers....

i suppose Quaglierella arrival would depend if Milan got Sheva or not. He has said publicly that he didnt think he would move, and im not sure Udinese would let him go either.

UDINESE wil let him go for sure...they paid a big amount of money cuz they knew the can get even more from bigger clubs...If they keep him for one more season they risk to lose the investment,if he under performs, like this Quagli, is forth smth btw 15 - 20 mil ,Udinese paid 8 mil euros I think!!

I agree that our players are hard to motivate, but that doesn't mean that you have to get motivated (but untalented) players on board. the question is how you motivate your difficult-to-motivate player. And Ancelotti, despite much criticism about him being mild etc, did the job.

Motivation is not as easy as people think: it's more than the paycheck that they are getting. Paying them a lot of money doesn't guarantee you succeed, but group cohesion and harmony does. Milan is a family, not just a team. They take care of the people, for she believes that taking of its people, which is her greatest asset, will bring results.

And it did, again and again and again.

Thanks man

IMHO, Henry is just a player to get to cream smaller team in EPL. From
what I've seen of him ( The Hype he generates ) and how he/Arsenal
performed in UCL compared to EPL.. Its a world of Difference.. For all
that its worth, He's never even equal Crouch's 7goal this season in UCL
and Crouch have been a SUB for most if not all of Liverpools Games..

Oh yeah.. before i forget, He was a flop Juventino to begin with and he
couldn't adapt to staying in Italy the first time round.. Doubt if he could now

Considering Henry had been injured for most of the season, the season before he took them to the final and when the team plays bad you cant blame Henry for this. If you compare the amounf of minutes Henry played with how many crouch played im sure you would understand.

To state he was a flop at Juve is the biggest rubbish I have ever heard, even Ancelotti mentioned it was his careers biggest mistake (more than the final of 2005 against Liverpool) that he never discovered Henry could be played as a striker.

Inter’s enigmatic Brazilian hitman Adriano has intensified speculation about his future by admitting he would like to play for rivals Milan.
Recently, Milan President Silvio Berlusconi surprisingly stated his desire to see L’Imperatore as a Rossonero and now it appears that the troubled marksman may feel the same way.

“It’s difficult to leave a club like this. I want to have a good season with Inter and satisfy the fans,” he told Brazilian website Globoesporte.

“However, I would like to play for Milan or Real Madrid, but that’s nothing concrete.”

Adriano had a tough 2006-07 campaign and recieved more Press attention for his indiscretions off the pitch than his performances.

Given his personal differences with Coach Roberto Mancini and the arrival of Honduran striker David Suazo, many felt the 25-year-old may take the chance to move on to pastures new.

Ok, by reading the english version one could think that Adriano says he dreams to play for Milan and it's not exactly right because in Italian version it is said that he wants to stay in Inter and he feels great there but he wouldn't mind playing for clubs like Milan or Real.

This is the Italian version :
Voglio fare una buona stagione con l'Inter e dare soddisfazioni ai tifosi. E' difficile che lasci il mio club. Chiaro che mi piacerebbe difendere i colori di club come il Milan o il Real Madrid ma non c'è nulla di concreto. Sto bene dove sono".

I want to have a good season with Inter and to satisfy the fans. It's not very possible that i will leave my club (Inter). Of course i'd like to play for teams like Milan or Real but there's nothing concrete so far. I'm good where i am right now !

I dont agree at all. If Lampard signs, someone is leaving.

And if Veron re-joins Inter, that would seal it for Adriano. Problem is that I cant see Moratti giving Milan the green light to get him.

Inter leave Chivu race
Wednesday 4 July, 2007

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Inter have officially withdrawn their interest in signing Roma defender Cristian Chivu, leaving the Giallorossi to negotiate with Real Madrid.

The Nerazzurri had been chasing the Romanian star for a fortnight, but having seen an offer of around £13m plus Victor Obinna on loan refused they have decided to give up.

The Beneamata informed Roma of their decision by way of a fax, according to Inter’s official website.

“Internazionale would like to inform you that a fax was sent to AS Roma to confirm that the club no longer wishes to pursue its interest in Cristian Chivu,” the statement read.

President Massimo Moratti has already stated that he would not be drawn any further into a bidding war for the gifted stopper, but Wednesday’s announcement makes the position official.

Negotiations between Roma and Real Madrid are said to be close to completion with the figure of £13m plus £5m in additional payments per season being suggested by various sources.

It is believed that Inter may now set their sights on Palermo’s Andrea Barzagli, who is also a target for Genoa, and that the champions may be willing to part with £7m and £2m for the next four years.

So they leave Chivu and now they are going for Barzagli.
