with Sneijer we can play a 4-3-3 when dinho is out. with VDV we have a great sub when Dinho isnt performing well, and we have two players who played with huntelaar which can be beneficial in a team chemistry way. and we can allow seedorf to walk.

i think they said Bersconi said that we arent buying anyone else, but this would be a great signing and even better if we do try to convert abate to wb.

Actually, it does mean he would reject Milan.

Real Madrid midfielder Wesley Sneijder has rejected moves to both Manchester United and Internazionale, according to his agent. Soren Lerby told AS: "Sneijder is a Real Madrid player and wants to stay here so he can earn back a first team shirt."

Even if Milan were going to spend the money it would take for Real Madrid to part with him -- which they wouldn't at this time -- the guy has made it clear he wants to stay at Madrid. Hell, he even rejected Manchester United, according to his agent.

i would hope that if we made an offer of oddo, kaladze, and maybe 10 or so mil for Vargas, i think that might get him for us

Yes, but you're relying on two things:

1) a competent, compassionate owner who cares about this club
2) we would be willing to take a player who is cup-tied.

EDIT: Lotito has denied any De Silvestri to Fiorentina move by calling it "rubbish." (tuttomercato)



However, if it came down to Fiorentina or us, I think Fiorentina would pay more for the player.

Dunga seriously has something against Pato, it's so obvious. But I really don't mind, Pato always comes back in worse shape after being coached by Dunga anyways.

When was the last time Pato orDinho took part in a competitive match? Two months ago? Adriano, on the other side, is in good form now, scoring 10 goals in 16 games.

Besides, Brasil is going to face his arch rival Argentina in early September. So I think Dunga did just the right thing not to call up Pato or Dinho

i think it would be short sighted if we didnt sign a talented player because he is cup tied for this season. If we want to compete this season in the league then Vargas would be an ideal LWB for Leo's scheme. Plus he is only 25. and it would help us in the CL this year, because it would keep a player fresher

Well, in reality we could financially compete even with Real Madrid.

But Berlusconi is either trying to prove a point to someone, or the financial crisis affected him strongly.

Berlu isnt living in reality. But I wouldnt like to overspend like Merda just a few good signings for realistic prices.

i think what the mgmt is trying to do is build something the future. say a base ground for financial issues. let us face it even if we kept kaka and spent another 100 mil for transfers we are still inferior to RM, Barca, chelsea, man utd, bayern even liverpool. so let us wait and see the project of our mgmt then we judge. and don't worry since berlu is a president one day soon you are gonna be european champion again

That's a good point. Never the less, it really does seem like Dunga has something against Pato, if not for this selection, then at least for his earlier selection in the olympics and for the NT.

We need Rafinha from Shalke 04, great right back and should not be too too expensive.

Did we actualy sign that bobo and sabri guys?

What is with this Sabri and Bobo rumours? maybe is just some turk press bullsh**

Hey, do we still have that one non-EU spot available? Wonder whether there's any reason for that.

Hello people. I havent been at home for a while and I didnt feel like going to internet caffe to write how we did nothing. Anyway Im back just in time for kick off, sorry fLame

There is still some time for us to buy one fullback that we need, since Leonardo has finnally said "thank you, ciao!" to Super-Massimo Oddo. I dont know who could even pay for Oddo, maybe Dinamo Zagreb or something like that ( they bought Cufre!! Probably stole him from Galliani... ).

I havent commented on Huntelaar. Since some commented he is crap player and can play only in Stuttgart, now they are unhappy aguess. I see Huntelaar as a very good CF, but not all classic no.9 players can play in all formations and with all teams. Huntelaar is a player that scores - he does nothing else. In a creative team is a perfect forward as he doesnt miss much, he is a clinical player. Also is classis 4-4-2 teams like old Juve. But in this Milan a player that can create for himself was needed, since we lack mobility due to stupid 3 DM's that we will AGAIN play as it seems, and Dinho who is a clown and not a football player anymore.

A team with Kaka', Yoan, PAto, Pirlo could fit Hunter perfectly, like a younger Pippo. But this team needed a different player. Still, Im not saying he cant play well, he can. But like Trez, he will score or he will be on the pitch for 90min without doing anything most of the time.

As I've said before, the end of great Milan is here as long as Berlusconi runs the club. Money has been taken out and next summer we'll most likely sell more, starting probably with Pato. It is very clear and sad to see knowing your club cant play for titles anymore, but what can we do.

To conclude, this team we have is not capable of winning scudetto or CL. It is very obvious and clear. It has no depht, not enough quality and lacks one world class player that will lead it. Pato is too young and unstabile right now, Dinho cant run.

Players we should have sold are Dinho and Pirlo, we did the opposite. I dont expect anything from this season. Lets hope Im wrong, but this team is unbalanced and is not a serious and good enough mix of 22-24 players that are capably for playing 45 good games per year.
