Summer mercato 2009

Sal: I agree with the folks, it would be best if you'd drop the mercato news of the other teams... You can just say Napoli signed Whois Blahness and continue saying whatever you wanted to say.... seeing post after post and none of which interests me gets old and annoying.. no offense tho.

Okay....I think it is more of a waste complaining than even posting news on other Serie A clibs. SO if I stop, you stop whining as well! Deal?

Robben can move to Roma, Caceres to Juve is immenent and Eboue of Arsenal to Fiorentina is imminent. On the Milan front? Nothing! If you post just to criticise......

Nah, it's much better like that. You can post your opinion about how other clubs have been doing in this summer mercato. Well, I am fed up with the management. So, I don't want to make the management image worse. LOL

What I can enjoy from Milan right now is Leonardo (a new coach, a refreshing for the team, a new cycle either good or bad) and hopefully the use of young players in the team. Last game I didn't enjoy Milan performance but against Chelsea I got some satisfaction watching the game.

Yeah, I think it is great watching young unknowns play for us..... and actually doing ok. I think that Nigerian Winger was okay, yet he seemed a little hesitant. Hope to see him feature some time again...... If not, we must loan him out!

As for Leo, atleast he is showing some nuts by going out and warning the big Boss himself, berlu, to buy young players, but also players who can do something signigifant for the squad this season. Not just cheap players, or youngsters who will take three years to develop!

LOL. I don't whine, only complaining and if my complain was rude, I appologize. That could be arised from the 'summer mercato's stress', almost 10,000 posts and what we got? An unknown defender?

*once again I don't count Beretti/Primavera quality of transfers nor loaned players*

I love the start of this report, what says Leonardo is full of irony ...
"We'll take U23 players ? Dzeko and Cissokho are ..."

Anyway, the main part of this report is about how Leonardo works everyday with Galliani and how this "U23 players only" is the line they all want to follow (Leo, Berlu and Galliani).

My only concern about this "U23 players only" is the fact that it is what Arsenal has done for years ...

Arsenal is playing with teenagers! its different than signing players like hernanes and dzeko.

+ we have enough experience in our team dont you think? so signing U23 does make sense.

About Leo, even he doesn't get what he wants, at least he has stated what he wants. Then he can continue to do his best to bring Milan to the top.

If signing U23 players is the new direction, it won't be for 1 or 2 years but for more, so then, our oldies will have left ...

TO be honest, CR7 won Player of the year based on his performances as a 23 yrs old.
Messi will probably win this year and he is like 21 or 22.
Gourcuff came alive when he is 23.
Essien was 22 when everyone in Europe wants to sign him.
Not to mention guys like Rooney, Robben, Pato, Santacroce, Torres, Cesc....who made a name for themselves before hitting 23.

It does makes sense to certain extend about getting players U23....but they must still be talented players with REAL potentials. On top of that, if someone is talented and does fill the hole in Milan, who cares if he is over 23, as long as he is the right player, Milan should try to get him.

But those who are 22-25 now will become more mature and exp in a few yrs. UNless they are all Kaka and leave to Real at 28.

It's all cool Sirega! No worries mate!

Here is someone who is not 23 years old but still good! Maybe not up to Milan standard out of form? But ability, no question.....


Milan & Inter To Fight For Manchester City's Elano – Report

Milan and Inter are about to wage a battle for Manchester City midfielder Elano, according to British tabloid The Sun.

The report suggests 28-year-old Elano has become the subject of Italian interest. It is said Citizens manager Mark Hughes sees the player as surplus to requirements at Eastlands following a major summer spending spree.

Voices claim the Rossoneri want the Brazilian as a replacement for Kaka, who joined Real Madrid this summer.

The Biscione have also been looking for a midfielder, and the link with Elano comes amid reports claiming Aliaksandr Hleb has rejected a loan move to the San Siro.

Elano will cost around €9 million. Despite the reports in England, neither Milan nor Inter have confirmed any interest in the Brazil star.

The Rossoneri are eager to land a striker and their search for that position continues.

Meanwhile, Inter were linked with Chelsea's Deco, but that move appears to have fizzled out.

I have to give Morratti or JM credits.
They wanted Carvalho and Deco, both of the players want to play for JM, Chelsea told them to pay up. Then Morratti went out and got Lucio and Helb, whom I think are much better players than Carvalho and Deco.
I would be surprise if Inter goes out and get another attk mid with the 45mil from Barcelona.
