Albertazzi was our only Primavera player to play with the U19 team. The team ended 4th of its group (Euro U19: 2 groups of 4 teams, the first 2 of each group play in semi-finals).
He played 5 of the qualifying rounds games. It has to be noticed that Mattia Destro scored 8 goals in the 5 games he played. Albertazzi also took part to 5 games. During this Euro and the 3 games played by Italy (Albertazzi played twice), they scored no goal and conceded 5 goals.

Qualifying round - 11/2009: Italy 5-0 Albania, Italy 4-0 San Marino, Italy 2-0 Ireland (all games played in San Marino)
Elite round - 05-2010: Italy 2-0 Czech Republic, Italy 3-2 Northern Ireland, Italy 1-3 Russia (all games played in Russia)
Euro U19: Italy 0-2 Portugal, Italy 0-0 Croatia, Italy 0-3 Spain

Not very promising and we've bought up alot of 16-19 year old Italians and only one can get in the squad.That really isn't what we expect from our future.

Also if Dinho is out I see mgt buying no one let alone Ganso or Hernanes i'd Imagine Allegri will be forced to play with.


Flamini...Pirlo...Ambro

....Seedorf........

.Pato...Borriello...


As from recent statements action and an unwillingless to spend.I certainly don't see someone coming in for Dinho if its only for 5 or 6 weeks.

i thin we should get van der vaart with ronnie injured, and Afellay instead or lazzari and then choose between a loan of ben arfa and drenthe.
as far as strikers are concerned i think Pato, Huntelaar, Inzaghi and Borriello can do the job. a striker is only as good as the midfield who creates chances for it.

Hleb seems to be out of the Barcelona team and it is reported he would cost only 5M ...
VdV is reported to cost 10M ...

For 15M, we could have two very good players, eager to play in a big club and to show what they're worth, having experience, and playing in positions where we desperately need players ...

Come on Galliani, an effort !!

PS: The only problem I see with these deals is that both clubs want Thiago Silva ...

i would also take hleb

but honestly i hope abate steps up this year as well, as he is really the only addition to the midfield this year.

Thats whats annoying Hleb V.Der Vaart Drenthe on loan maybe and Ben Arfa all for supposedly 15 Million + wages , and our mgt hust sit on their hands...I doubt there even trying.

When Leo is gone, we all got the idea the club's plans, no quality signing.

Milan could easily reinforce the squad much more with little money with a little bit intelligent MGT. Just look at bosman players. Simplicio, definetely was an upgrade for our midfield, Kallström, Hamit Altintop, for CB, Godin, for attack Chamakh. Roma doesnt have money too yet they reinforced the squad with Adriano and Simplicio ,2 very good buy.

MGT spends money but on a stupid way. They renewed Oddo's and Zambrotta's. its nice to drop their wages, as they drop annually wages. Milan had to find offload this players.
yet MGT would rather to keep them.

This squad just have 2 young WC players, its crazy even thinking about selling them. They are the one who carries the squad. just remember how we struggled without Pato.
with Silva our defence will be horrible again. its very hard to find a solid WC defender nowadays. it cost too much. we have Yepes, Papa or Onyewu. its funny replacing Silva with one of them. we didnt learn our lessons from Senderos-Bonera CB partnership. These 3 should prove themself first. Papa is much overrated, the only defender i would take from Genoa would be Bonucci, their system and playing style is very different, a player stars in Genoa can be dissapeared in another squad. think about twice before signing a player from there...

Ben Harfa, is a antimodern football, fighting spirit, continuity, he lacks them. talented but lacks something. this is why he cant be a WC player. Ben Harfa at most could be a vice Ronaldinho, something we lack now.

Hleb is a gamble, VDV is valued at 10 m euros. i'd take Honda with my eyes closed. He has everyting our midfield lacks. with a jucilei typee, 2 way midfielder and fighter typee player, our midfield would be nice...

Jucilei Flamini
Pato Honda Ronaldinho
Borriello

i can understand you renew Oddo's contract, Nobody wants to sign him and you find a way to drop his wages by renewing his contract 1 more year. Yet Gattuso? he has some buyers, from Arabia, German team, Greece team. but Galliani wants Gattuso who is useless in our 4-3-3 system. Last year, he did nothing. the year before he was superb until he got injured then he was bad.i didnt get the logic by saying many players can be with us for 2011-2012 too and keeping Gattuso...

Jankulovski said that he would return to his homeland this season, its weird he is still with us.

Palermo sold Kjaer and Cavani for great amount of money. Who can bring that amount of money to us except Silva and Pato? Noone. its a sign of showing our squad's quality.
MGT dont have any intention to sign world class player. You remember guys? Berlusconi promised us a world class signing. They dont sign this kind of players in the last years, young, quality, can be a WC in short time. Jucieli, Honda this kind of players. yet we wont sign them.

Palermo is managing very well by Zamparini. he probably will replace them with nice names again, Toloi and Munoz. Regarding GK, Amelia was promising when he was much younger, yet he failed.he failed to make it. Genoa and Palermo...i'd rather to have a GK like Sirigu, who impressed me much during last season. he was impressive. Milan anymore just sign this kind of players, who had a bad season and failed at his club. Papa is much overrated here, he is not a player half player they think. Yepes is already 34 years old and played for Chievo.

''“Why do you want to leave just as I’ve arrived?” Allegri asked. “Don’t you remember when we played together at Perugia? C’mon don’t be stupid!”''

it shows me what kind of person Allegri is. Reports says, if Gattuso leaves, Blasi or Donadel will replace him.

What me bother is our players declaring how great we are and will fight for the scudetto until the end.
They are selling hopes and this is dangerous.

They signed young players, Zigoni. Last season he was talking about Zigoni as he is wc young player. after 1 year at Primavera, they sacrificed him. What kind of managing is that?

if you are Milan, you have sign young players who can be WC in short time? Go and sign Eriksen for instance instead Zigonis.

Kevin Prince Boateng would be upgrade over our midfielders, Hernanes in on the verge of signging for a club. Honda is about to leave.

Last year, we fought for the scudetto for a short time, we did it because Leo's tactics and style suited on us nicely, That Milan was giving hope, with 2-3 quality players, everything would be different. Leo knew their plans and he left.

When teams plays well, Ronaldinho is playing well too. When teams play bad, he wont be anywhere.

What you guy's think about??? I mean common sense tells me we have the same squad + Amelia huge ? marks over him ...Yepes he is 34 an why did he not play for a big club before he was good with Chievo but wasn't brilliant and now he has a contract with guaranteed money...Papa idk we'll see.

But does Ambro realise its the same squad a year older a bit slower and will tire the same , I know they can't and shouldnt say we are old and cannot win that would be crazy..But they are insulting our intelligence when they say we can win we can close the gap we are competitive damnit its just annoying me they were not good enough 2 3 4 5 years ago to win the league how will they be good enough this year.We lost Dida Favalli and actually added nothing that will make a difference its great getting defenders hopefully they will work out.But our midfield is the problem and if nothing is done we again will tire 55 mins into games and be shot by the end of January go out of the CL and maybe not make it lose money and Pato will be sold .That looks more likely atm than any decent signing.

Abate is not a player who can steps up a year. he has limits and he can be useulf with his limits.

The best place for him is wing back, if you play him in 4-3-3 in Pato's place, he wont be useful that much because of his movement to box and finishing. Best thing he has is his pace, i dont think he can be useful in midfield because of his limits.

Roma with Simplicio and Adriano is better side, with Ranieri, their self believed improved much, they are on advanted stage now.

İnter is another world to current Serie A, just look at how many world class players they have. They are number 1 favourite.

Juventus is signing players just to make transfers, Off course Bonucci and Martinez is upgrade to their squad and juve didnt sign anyone who can jump themselves into another level. though its very early to speak about them cuz they will sign some quality players...

Fiorentina, they have nice squad and reinforced it, D'Agostino is what they need, Montolivo and him would be nice pair.

its a player, who can step up this season. For me players like Jovetic has the chance to step up, not limited players like Abate. if he can step up, Fiorentina will do well. They have many nice talents.

Napoli, they didnt find the ryhtme, if they can find it, they can be dangerous.

Serie A is hard. i'd be surprised if Allegri's Milan end up the league behind them.

He wasn't fit. He hadn't played more than a half at one time since his injury. Personally, I'd like to see Gooch go out on loan to another Serie A club where he can get regular playing time and the opportunity to prove himself and get used to the Serie A game. He doesn't bring the same skill set as Thiago Silva, but he can be very solid and especially useful against teams with big, physical strikers.

he is still young and can learn an adapt.

Will never be a great player and thats what you need if you want success good-great players teamwork flair speed strong players , all of which we lack in droves .Its really getting me p1ssed off today just patronising comments from mgt and players the players that are clinging onto there spot , you don't see Inter Man U Madrid Barca Bayern Chelsea with an 02/03 squad except for few players its INASNE.
