Some may say that he couldn't have done much against the better defenses and he may suffer with Milan this year since everyone will play much more defensive than they did last year against Genoa.

Common sense suggests that you wanted to use profanity there and therefore it's only sensible to remove it, so other posters don't get bothered by it (nor does it negatively influence younger posters). On top of that, I don't know about you, but I'm sure many would appreciate the fact that this board is generally free of swearing (something many boards are ruined by).

As for the smileys you posted, I'm not against them going, but at the same time I've accepted that the admin are ok with them. Personally, I'm not offended by them, and the infrequent use of them on the forum doesn't particularly affect the atmosphere on the board. On the other hand, I frequently end up editing out swearing on the board.

If you want to talk about this further, pm one of the mods or admins.

I see. Well I apologise to you and any whom I may have offended. you'll have no problems with me in this regard. I do not swear in real life...and I will no longer even reference it here either.

i don't want him to fail. believe me i will enjoy seeing belen in the crowd for many years to come

but i just dont think he will...

I am forced (once again ) to agree with Giancarlo....don't knock borriello before he plays. He was always a great player...and perhaps he should have been made into an Ibrahimovic rather than a Drogba (ancelotti made this mistake with Henry too by playing him as a pure winger instead of a wing forward). Now that he IS scoring I am assuming that his finishing is better and THAT was his only flaw

Okay, well I always hope for the best... maybe I'm just a dumb optimist...

Anyways, I think we should get Hernan Crespo, Diego Cavalieri, Thiago Neves...

Um... a thing about Cavalieri... he could be able to get an EU passport because I think he's part Italian... the article also mentions they signed a document keeping them quiet about who they are negotiating with. So with a little luck hopefully it is Milan. I don't want to see him go to Liversmool.

Galliani: Milan won't break bank for Ronaldinho

AC Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani insists the club will not pay over the odds for Barcelona playmaker Ronaldinho.

After a disappointing and injury-hit season, Ronaldinho has been told by the Catalan giants he is not part of their plans as they make wholesale changes after two trophy-less campaigns.

There has been no shortage of interest for the two-time FIFA World Player of the Year with Manchester City having already had detailed discussions with the Brazilian and Chelsea also linked with the player.

Yesterday City's executive chairman Garry Cook claimed they had a '50-50' chance of signing Ronaldinho but Galliani claims Milan are leading the pack, although he insists a deal will only be completed if the price is right.

'It seems to me that Ronaldinho has placed Milan at the top of his desires, even if Chelsea has a lot of appeal,' he said.

'We have to see how much the final cost will be, the transfer and then his signing-on fee. But I don't promise anything to the fans.

'In any case in attack we already have Marco Borriello, Filippo Inzaghi, Kaka, Alexandre Pato. If we can get someone else then good, if not we'll stay how we are. We're already competitive.

'I'm not happy not making big signings, I'm a fan too, but a big transfer will only be done if there's the right conditions.

'Players who cost, between wages and other things, 20 million euros (£16million) a year, aren't compatible with Italian clubs' bank balances.'

Galliani has dismissed the prospect of Chelsea's former Milan star Andriy Shevchenko returning to the San Siro.

'If Sheva comes to Italy, he comes to us,' he continued.

'He was one of our targets but we have been told that he is not for sale.'

So, there you go. We won't be getting anyone. I am fairly certain. This translation is very very clear.

we can only do one think , just pray Laporta wins the election on sunday against Rossell cuze he was the man who brought him from PSG

Hernan Crespo is a free agent, so I don't see why he won't get him. Absolutely no cost besides wages... and he has experience with Milan after a good time on loan with us. Hernan Crespo + Ronaldinho... fine by me. I have my fingers crossed with Ronaldinho. We will be getting someone at least... if Chelsea won't be giving us Sheva, we might as well get Crespo.

And I'm sure our transfer season won't be over if we dont' get Ronaldinho.
