Banter 2009/2010

Misimovic is what you want guys...a maestro...a leader...creative AM...

he is a complete midfielder,he plays 2 part of the game,creative,quick,fast,
intelligent,skilled e.t.c.

Wolsburg has a weak midfield trio,Hasebe,Genther and Josue,with Hernanes and Pirlo/Flamini,he will perform much better.

SOMETHING WE ALL WANT! A ATTACKING MIDFIELDER!

First, he's worth 20 M, at least that's the amount Wolfsburg is asking for him. The rumor is that we want him for 14 M.

Second, he's not what we need, as simple as that.

Misimović is a great attacking midfielder, with fabulous vision, great passing and great technique, to sum best playmaker in Bundesliga.
But, he's slow, weak and he's typical attacking midfielder, i.e. in terms of defensive work he's just like Kaka, or little better. He's not as lazy as Seedorf (not even close), but he simply cannot defend.
To be more clear, he's a type of player that Rui Costa was. And that isn't what we need. We need an attacking midfielder like Seedorf who's capable to help defense and isn't lazy as Seedorf. Quick and strong too. And Misimovic is a different kind of player.

If we somehow want to get rid of Ronaldinho, Mismovic would be PERFECT behind Pato and Dzeko in 4-3-1-2 but we all know that's not going to happen.

I guess it is because that he and Dzeko have formed a formidable attack combo both in NT and at club level, so the rumor would link us to him also. Thanks for the information and I think that makes much sense.

That reminds me of the Shevchenko-Rebrov duo. All we needed was Shevchenko and he brought us much glory. I truly hope that Dzeko could emulate Shevchenko and bring Milan back to the top of Europe where we should belong.

That wasn't Juventus' first 1:4 loss. They had the same scoreline against Bayern Munich at home.

Can't believe Juventus ended two major European tournaments in one season with the same scoreline of 1:4. I always hated Juventus, but still can't help feeling bad for them.

I really hate Juve but I respect them. I want them to lose, but not like this, against 10th of PL after big mouthed. Simply classless.

And with all the respect to Zac, I must conclude he can not be the coach of top club. Thank him for the Scudetto, but back then he had a squad of:
Abbiati (best season), Costacuta (32), Maldini (30), Albertini (27), Ambrosini, Boban (30), Weah (32), Bierhoff (30)
compared to the only opponent: Lazio (Inter & Juve were weak then)
Favalli, Pancaro, Nesta, Mihajlovic, Nedved, Stankovic, Salas, Mancini (34), Vieri
we had more class (I do not inclued some one season wonders of both teams). 7 world class & potential world class (-Abb) against only 4 (Nesta, Nedved, Mancini, Vieri), we do have the advantage.

Watching Milan under Zac in Cl was just painful.

A bit off-topic, just memory.

Anyway, thank Zac, you a great man.

Geo - This year somehow I saw Hazard 5,6 times. I also saw him vs Croatia and tonight vs L'pool... This player is BRILLIANT!! Once he gains a bit of a phisical presence he will be a player of highest possible calibar! Unlike Pato, Hazard is not showing and problems playing on the right or in the middle as well... So In our future I can immagine

-------------Pato----------------CF-------------------
----------------------Hazard--------

Hazard is absolutely brilliant, I completely AGREE with you

TOnight I saw Dzeko and I wasnt impressed at all. I also saw Torres... Trust me, those two players are not on the same football level. Dzeko is a very good CF, but Milan needs a player like Fernando. BUT, tall and phisical boc CF's tend to reach their full stranght after 25th year... Still, Im more for a moving Cf and not only a classical box player.

Misimovic - classic fantasista. Only role ho could maybe interpret in what See is doing now, only better But I doubt Milan will do it. Misimovic really showed some class again tonight.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

More, have you people seen an article on milannews about Silvio vs Galliani%whole Milanello staff??

Eden Hazard is a true talent: fast & skillful

But there are 2 things I don't like, if he plays for us at the centre NOW:
1. His moves are too showy
2. He is small & weak

mean he would be crushed by DM and CB, get injured or lost the ball.
In addition:
3. No powerful long shoot

Kaka & Seedorf are the typical AMC we need:
- Strong physically
- No redundant moves, just quick & effective. It is not that they can't do the showy ones, they just save them for fun and do what modern football required.
- Long shoot.

Passing is the thing midfielder must be good at, so I don't list here.

If we sign him now, he should only play at the wings. He must learn and build his body stronger to play at the center. With his talent, nothing can't be learnt and MilanLab is still the best body building gym of the world

True about the thing with Torres.

And that's why I want to point out that Ibrahimovic is having trouble in Barcelona. On top of that his agent (who also represents Balotelli) was in Milanello last week and people started rummors that we are interested in Balotelli. On that the agent said that he didn't discuss Balotelli with Milan, and that Balotelli is not the only player he represents. SOOOO could it be Ibrahimovic???

Barca gets Villa or Torres.......we get Ibrahimovic.

I can be a great conspiracy theorist.

If Milan gets Ibra, it will be a huge step toward Grande Milan again.

I guess we can scratch that. I just found out that Balotelli is represented by his brother!

But in any case, it is a good theory isn't it!?

Ibra for Milan? Now, cut that out man! Barca spent 40 millions plus Eto'o to get that guy. Long gone are the days when Berlu is willing to pay such a huge sum of money for one player.

Keep your both feet on the ground guys and keep looking for another free agents. We'll send a list full of them for B&G to think of.

I think Villa will go to Real.
Higuin and Gago will head to ManCity.
Real will also sign a LB, hopefully Janku or Favalli but most likely be either Erva or Cissohko(since they get to see him play up close).
Real will sign Gerrard for money + VDV

ManU will get J. Cole for free and will try to lure Torres.
If that failed, they will get Dzeko in exchange for money+Berba.

Milan will get Yepes and all the other free players like Mancini.
Pato will be sold to Chelsea
Amuari will be a Milan player in exchange for Hunter.

If ManU did not get Dzeko, then Berba will be playing in Juve.

If ManU did not get Dzeko, he will end up in Barcelona as Henry is going to play in MLS after the WC with Trez.

Well we can say whatever we want, the only thing that is keeping us in contact with Dzeko is his love for Milan and willingness to play for Milan otherwise we would have been out of the race long time ago, because we cant pay that much money a player. Anyways another German- Bosnian is Marko Marin, fast, skill, vision, great midfielder. He does not play for Bosnia, he plays for Germany but he will be a great player.

Let be honest we can not effort players like Torres, this is only a dream.
We can get Yepes rejuveneting out squad with a 34 year old. **** YOU BALDY

Thank goodness Bremen denied the news linking us to Per Mertesacker. His partnership with Metzelder is the Germany NT's worst CB pair ever. This guy is really like Bierhoff, his above average aerial ability is his only plus

I totally agree wit u guys... yepes is a pure upgrade from favalli. he should be coming free(?) and is not being paid too much. But HE SHOULD ONLY be a replacement for the outgoing Favalli, and not direct back-up to Silva and Nesta... If 15 million for Astori is true, we might as well sell him and use that 5 million or so to help fund the purchase of another CB.

Personally, I would like to see a fair investment made on a quality Cb to back up Nesta/Silva, and a youngster such as Albertazzi promoted, instead of Yepes.
