Same here mate. I do like Paloschi because of his attitude. He is the new Inzaghi for us IMO, he is only bit smaller than Inzaghi. He will be great striker IMO if he keeps Inzaghi's attitude (when playing) on him.

I think, its better for him to go on loan as he does need games as he hasnt played many games. He was new in Primavera without played for Beretti before and he did miss some games of Primavera. He wont get many games here in Milan, its better for him to find games in other place.

Actually, if we get someone like Arshavin, Montolivo, Van der Vaart, Sneijder, or anyone else in an offensive position, we would be able to play at least one year without a new striker in the team I think.

Pato, Inzaghi, Borriello are 3 types of strikers who are very different.
Paloschi is a kind of "young Inzaghi" in the way he plays and wants to play.

Even if Borriello (I don't like him, again I have to say that lol) and Paloschi are not in the top strikers next year, their kind of play could allow us to change sometimes the formation and the way to play.

I'm starting to think that Adebayor isn't needed (whereas I defended him in previous pages), that Eto'o doesn't fit mentally to our team (he's amazing when he's on form), etc ... and other top strikers won't be sold.

Why do you think that ?
With 4 valid options in attack (so with Paloschi in), he could earn some spots, especially when the team will play with 2 strikers, what could happen more often next year I think.

And he could be our striker for early games in UEFA Cup + all Italian Cup games ...

So he could play at least 15-20 matches as a starter in the year + some subs ... same for Borriello.

completely agree. He's probably atleast 2 years away from being a milan player... could be longer. only the best of players can step into a club of milns size as a teenager and contribute

no no we need to loan him.... do you really think a team w/ pippo, pato, borriello, paloschi upfront s good enough to win serie A? thats basically no change from 5th place team last year

You didn't read all my post I think ... or you missed a part.
I said they could be enough IF we get a player like Arshavin, Montolivo, Rosina, Ronaldinho, and co ... you see, an offensive midfielder who can create chances. If we don't get a player like that, we'll need a serial scorer.

EDIT:
PS1: Pato could score something like 20 goals next year, maybe more, we just have to hope that he doesn't get any injury.
PS2: We can also hope that Inzaghi won't have a year like this one and will continue on his late form ... so if he can play 25-30 games, we can expect from him something like 15 goals.
PS3: In other games, Borriello and Paloschi could score something like 20 goals together (not 20 for Paloschi and 20 for Borriello but 20 for both lol).

if borriello and palo combine for 20 goals i'll take a picture of myself in a I(heart)Geotav shirt

Agreed...I think Borriello could score 20 goals in other games but it would be hard on a PS3

LOL
Don't get me wrong ... I don't speak about Serie A only !! There's Italian Cup, UEFA Cup, and ... argh it's all lol.

If we have only 4 strikers including Palo (Pato, Pippo, Poriello, Palo), it means for me, Carlo will use again same formation, 1-striker formation,which means Palo will get only few games.

First option will be Pato (as there is more pressure from Berlu and Galliani to use him more) as single striker and then come Pippo as sub (in other occasions Pippo as the main striker, Pato as sub for Pippo). So the subtitutes for either Pippo or Pato when one of this is unavailable in a match is Boriello. So, the chance for Palo will be so limited. Its for Serie A.

For Coppa, I have no doubt, Palo will always play but not in UEFa. In UEFA he will be sit on the bench for Boriello subs. He will get some matches from bench in UEFA Cup.

I think, the games he will get from Serie A (very few), Coppa (we know how many game Milan play in coppa) and UEFA (mostly from bench, some occasion starts from the first minute) are still not enough for his developement as very young striker who REALLY needs games as he was only 1 year in primavera without playing in Beretti.

At the end we should also consider how 'hesitant' Carlo to use young (especially very young) players.

At this point I'd almost rather have a year where we develop Pato and Paloschi here at Milan...who knows, maybe we don't need the big-name striker. We can save the 25 million and plunk it on Arshavin? For me, if we had an incredible attacking midfielder to compliment kaka' and went with a 2-striker formation, we'd be a nice offensive threat. I don't think this is carlo's style, but it'd be a nice change! We'd have to have our defense work poorly, and Arshavin would have to become a bit more back-tracking...i see goals though!
something like...
Ambro/Rino/Flam-----Pirlo
Kaka'-----Arshavin?
Pato----Palo/Borriello

This seaosn, he had no choice with Ronaldo who was useless and Inzaghi having a huge injury ... His only valid options were Pato in January with Gilardino that you all were bashing here lol (not you Siregar ^^) and of course that pushed up Paloschi in first team.

3 valid options, you can't play with 2 strikers in that situation ...

But again, I say it is enough only IF we buy an offensive midfielder !!

Everybodys is a expert,it's funny how everyone wanted Gila when he was a hot item and came to Milan,but nobody wanted Pippo when Milan picked him up in the transfer market.

We are never wrong are we?
