It doesn't matter who Inter buys...there is ZERO Cohesion on the team and there won't be any next season. Ancelotti is far better than Mourinho by far. And yes I do like Lippi... the man that won Italy a world cup after 24 years.

HE WON CHAMPIONS LEAGUE WITH PORTO!!!! Two years in a row he was unlucky break away from going to final w/ chelsea.....his team was better than liverpool BOTH years. I dont know what other argument you want.

thats why mourinho is dangerous though. He is like fergeson and capello doesnt stand for crap, kicks them off team and gets them organized cohesive. Perfect fit for inter.

IT DOES NOT MATTER. He didn't even get close to winning it with Chelsea... and his record with Chelsea is scant at best. I DO NOT THINK HE IS A BETTER COACH.

You are overrating him. Mourinho has a big mouth and he switches things around too much ruining any cohesion that may have existed.

2 CL runs w/ chelsea. 1 year lost in semis to liverpool (he also defeated barca that year) on a goal that shouldnt have been allowed. anyone who watched that game knows what i mean

2nd year lost in semis to liverpool on Pks... and we were lucky, cause i dont know if we'd have faired as lucky in final against chelsea as we did liverpool.....

I consider 2 semifinal exits that close VERY close to winning. 2 league titles, 3 cups is scant? 1 2nd place finish? This team hadnt won league for 50 years.... thats pretty impressive

Chelsea is mainly a defensive team and they played terribly... they got lucky that ManU didn't score 3 in the first half... Petr Cech played better that game then recently... poor guy... either way, I know for a fact that Ancelotti has proven results. Three finals, two trophies. Would have been three if it wasn't by the bad luck we had...

ancelotti is a great coach. I question whether his time has passed or not, but i'm not doubting his ability. But that doesnt mean mourinho is bad by ANY means

I was going to get into this argument...but there's a type of person you should not argue with because they'll bring you down to their level then beat you with experience...I have been beaten before.....regards milano84 (headnod)

I think this is rehashing things and I certainly don't want to fight with any of you guys. Any other suggestions on forwards? I was wrong about Mario Gomez. Dead wrong... Completely and totally wrong lol...

better to be wrong now then once he's rewarded 20 mil.

I'm going to assume for the time being adebayor and eto'o r out....

so our list reads:

drogba (no), Berbatov (yes pleasE), podolski (doubt klinnsmann will let him go), jo, benzema, huntelaar, rvd (over 30 and had first serious injury... i think hes ready for acmilan).............ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm......bring back gilardino?

Bring back Gilardino (with a cheaper price) will be just hilarious lol.

if he just get goals with fiorentina I swear Galliani will ask him to come back

Oddo has some speed and some stamina so we're not totally lost defensively with him...it's just his passing, crossing have been poor. If he returns to form he'd be quite good actually.

Cafu has a lot of speed but almost zero stamina...so he'll keep you in the game but only for a while

Bonera is great tactically, technically and positionally but his speed is awful and could get roasted by a three legged turtle running on glass So the only proper way for Daniele to function is as a mainly defensive RB or if covered by somebody at CB or CDM. Personally I think he's a GREAT CB

I also think Bonera should be a CB, he will be great there but not a wingback in our system. We require Wingback who can bomb forward and come back to make a decent recovery. IMO, zambrotta is the only one who can be counted on to do that, Oddo IMO really sux to produce any chances from the flanks and cost us too much in attacking. Janku is seldom on form, he left his form in udinese.

It'll be a close sealed bid and Milan emerged victorious with a 20M bid and trading Simic and Brocchi (who are going to be with us forever) to the other side.

***LOL***

Janku was one of our best players in the 06/07 campaign... he had an injury which is why he lost his form. I think he can gain it back and he's doing better in the Euro cup... sad about what happened in that game though...

i have yet to hear anyones opiniion on antonini? Anyone care to tell me what you've seen out of him....
