Boruc still makes too many mistakes and does too many stupid things at the moment for me. Though if he could cut all that out he would be a good keeper. Unfortunately there just doesn't seem to be any great keepers available.

On an unrelated note, Goal.com was saying Milan are sniffing around Santacrocce.

goal com has nothing to do with reality. According to them they know what Braida THINKS!

But I agree Santacroce wouldbe brilliant signing.

Santacroce would be a massive signing! But I also like Zapata and Gonzalo, but offcourse an Italian defender would be sweater

As our clinical finisher, look no further than Giuseppe Rossi! Still very young but he's already on a very high level, and he would be perfect to replace Pippo! He's also a big milan fan!

i agree on italian defender (or at least serie a defender)

Rossi is good but we have Paloschi
next year he should replace Inzaghi

Finally Milan is linking with the right players, ie: Santacroce and Zapata.

I am pretty sure, if Milan pays 25M for each of them, they will come to Milan.

guiseppi rossi?


paloschi and rossi arent even comparable. 1 rossi is a support striker ala del peiro/cassano. 2 Rossi is FAR more talented and proven at 21. Plaing in CL and being successful in both serie A (he helped keep parma a float 2 years ago and la liga. Paloschi i sill have large reservations about and he's in serie B. Should be develope he's still only 19 in january and he isnt pato. so he need to sty w/ parma for atleast 2-3 more years....

Paloschi isnt ready for Milan, at least not to be one of our main 3 strikers, maybe as 4th striker but I prefer him to stay at parma for a few more years.

Rossi is a striker who can create chances by himself as a second striker, but he also is a very good finisher! I remember alex ferguson said he is a more natural finisher than ruud van nistelrooy, who is on of the best goalscorers around!

I agree with you
Rossi plays more like a seconda punta and in this moment he is better than Paloschi(no doubt about that)
But we already have a player like that PATO

As the first striker we have for the moment Borriello but for the future we should give credit to our young talented player

we need more than 2 strikers! Borriello, Pato, Rossi, Inzaghi would be a great forward line, 2 real strikers, and 2 second strikers.

To be honest I don't even think we should be counting Pippo as one of our strikers anymore. He's hardly fit and is getting on in age. Next summer we'll definitely need a striker, especially if we ship Sheva back from whence he came. But for the winter mercato I think we have enough selection problems in midfield and attack as is. The probably for me is there's quantity on our roster but not quality, or should I say consistent quality.

true. The thing is every team gets injuries and has a injury crisis on occasion. but when its the same players alwas hurt (pippo, janku etc) its not an injury crisis, its just who they r. cant count on players like that and u need to move forward

Latest rumour on the defensive front is danish Liverpool-player Daniel Agger, according to Il Corriere Dello Sport.

He was quite good for Liverpool before being injured and he's only 24.

I had him in my winning eleven team . Oh well...

rossi would be a very pleasant addition. he could play as a second striker or as a CF, he is very talented. he is better than Paloschi i must say. he's only 21 and he's played in Serie A twice, Premiership once and is now in La Liga. He also is a huge Milan fan, that always works in his favour.
