Summer mercato 2009

And why do we keep such a nice relationship with ROma (not that it's a bad thing)...

Abate, Albetrazzi, Darmian ARE NOT good enough yet, admit it.
Zapata IS NOT a Milan player, live in a real world.

I think Abate is good enough to play for Milan as he is doing really well.
Also he is someone who we can really use, as he lives on the right side.

omg, was this a cheap attempt to show off?
if you are so smart to grasp both the essence of football and the essence of jazz, and then be able to connect them...
... i would assume you would also be smart enough to put this metaphor in a one simple word - "improvization".. am I right? please tell me. I want my mom to be proud!

it.

someone says "call an ambulance", when another person is showing sings of insanity. If you see a joke element in that - good for you.
You seem obsessed with american culture. Where did that come from in our discussion?

how can they become good enough as they never get playing time?? Why cant play some games against the smaller teams? or in uefa group stages...

To allow Galliani, and maybe Berlusconi, to spend some time in bed with Miss Sensi ?

About the young guys, we'd like to see Darmian and Albertazzi (whereas we only saw them playing only 2-3 times maximum and don't know what is their real level), and in the "we", I include myself, but let's be also realistic: our main problem is our defence, is it a good solution to put on the pitch very young players in this area when you know that your defence is a pity ? What's the example for these young guys ? Kaladze makes a mistake ... "oh if he can do it and remain a starter, I can too" (I know that sounds crazy and it is made to sound like this ).

Young players can be used as starters (one by one of course, not 2-3 at the same time) only when the team goes very well, especially for defenders, because they need to earn confidence, and so they need to play in a team with confident players ... who in our defence seems confident enough to play alongside a very young defender and maybe save our asses from a mistake coming from this young dude ?? I think we all know the answer ...


PS: The answer was "no defender in our team"

they do get play against smaller teams - that's why we loan them out.
I am sure Milan staff is watching closely every player, and if they show good signs, we get them back from loans.

we all know that favalli, emerson are great though.

so Milan's choice should be between unproven no good youngsters and old over the edge players?

No, Milan's choice should be between up and coming players, and established players, not cripples who add nothing to our roster. I'd much rather see Albertazzi etc get games than watch emerson disgrace our jersey anymore.

In addition to that I'm SURE Abate can offer us all what Beckham offers us...PLUS more. Except all the publicity in England...

I thought Abate was a winger?? Which is something we don't need.

And what is Beckham? Is he needed? Was he needed?

Considering we lack the players to operate wide, then a proper winger as opposed to a media circus is needed. Abate would be a great addition with right manager, and management, but doubt he'll come. Galliani alway slies about our youth players returning. Done it with MArzoratti & Pozzi, sold Donadel too. Will do same to Paloschi, Di Gennaro, Abate & others too.

The coach has no faith in young players... other than Kaka and Pato... Man U uses a lot of young unproven players in there squad... they hav a little brazilian playing on the right side of defence and he scored against arsenal. I dont see why we cant give our youngsters a chance.... we put them out on loan and they perform better than our starters against the same teams that often beat the crap out of us... and i hope no one tell me that they are not "Milan Quality"... i think we need to integrate a new school of thought into this system of ours...
when will Milan be the team thats feared in italy???
