Summer Mercato 2010

Galli should not say lucky for us Dinho and Pato are staying. Dunga is the one we should thanks, as If they were chosen and did well, Berlu will sell them for an inflated price and stated that they need to balance the book again.

I actually believe Milan will sign that big striker from N. Korea and state that he is a better player than Honda.

Sign Camonesi and Grosso and claims they are world class and champions.

Somehow manage to sell Oddo, Janku and Dinho. And claims that those money are put aside for 2011 summer as the prices of players had gone up too much due to the WC.

Wouldn't mind Dempsey coming in as he seems to be atleast a realistic option.... VERY eager to see Gatusso shipped out to the middle east and Ambro play a lesser role in the future.

I see Clint Dempsey (and no I certainly don't think he is another messi/kaka) as a better alternative to the ageing Seedorf.

Would also be very glad to see Addiyah on loan to a club like Sunderland....Minus the buy-out clause. Especially wiht Inzaghi still hanging about.

So our Goalkeeping department has been temporarily sorted out and our Centre Back options are extended with Yepes and Onyewu who is nearing full-capacity.
Only things left on the list is a decent Full-back and a new midfielder. Contrary to most, I feel selling heavily for a star srtiker is unnecessary.

I'm guessing Grosso/ Carceres for Full back will arrive and Dempsey for our midfield. I feel Carceres on cheap (seems unlikely as Barca may play hardball) and Dempsey would be a good outcome.... Your thoughts?

Today we're linked mainly to Balotelli (given the recent comments from Raiola) and Sakho's been linked too.

I would absoloutely love to see Balotelli in a Milan shirt (even if it means we need to try and curb his attitude), but it's highly unlikely unfortunately. Sakho is interesting as I've heard good things about him both as a CB and LB. Again, he apparently has an attitude problem.

Geotav, do you know much about Sakho and his potential?

From Football Manager, Mario and Sakho are one of the best players in terms of potentials.

Sakho is young: 20.
He's strong and tall (almost 1M90). He started his career in PSG in 2007 (at 17) and was, at his first game as a starter in Ligue 1, put in the role of the captain of the team. I don't know if he is still the captain of Paris anyway, I don't think so, but he's one of the favourites of the fans in this club, and it's quite difficult to be loved there nowadays.

I never heard about attitude problems with him, but it wouldn't be surprising regarding the situation of Paris in the last few years (problems with supporters, with coaches, with the head of the club, with medias, with ...). What I mean is that if he had some attitude problems, in a proper environment, it could be solved I think.

I didn't mention that he is one of the big hopes in France for the defence (a good defence is what France hasn't had since the WC2006).

His contract should end in 2012.

PS: I seriously think this guy needs to leave Paris, he won't explode nor become the "next big thing" in defence for the French NT is he stays for too long in Paris because this club is simply one of the worst ones for players to exploit their potential. So if the guy has some kind of ambition and wants to improve, I think he needs to go, and I think in Milan, he could learn a lot of things and quickly become a wall for the opponents.

Thanks, that sounds really promising and I've heard us linked to him many times in the past half year or so.

About the attitude problem, it was mainly in his early teens that he apparently had these problems, and my source is wikipedia, so nothing I think to worry about.

One to definitely be excited about if rumours are true then.

It worked allright in google translation here: http://translate.google.com/translat...ml&sl=no&tl=en

It's mainly about our youth system.

Thanks! Pretty interesting stuff. Maybe I misunderstood it, but did it say that we actually scouted Messi?

That's really old photos, remember seeing them last year, might even be two years old though.

Yeah its slow this summer real slow like last year maybe even worse as it isnt a rage filled mercato (we were mad with kaka and gourcuff leaving...being sold)
because this year we all thought for sure that 40 or 50 mill would have to be spent that Dida Favalli Rini Pippo Kala Roma Janku Oddo and Zambro would probably be gone well it hasn't happened and only Dida is gone with Favalli and they have already been replaced and old timer and a way out of form Keeper in Amelia....I dont want to get mad and say MGT dont care nothing will ever change we'll finish 9th and the sky will fall.

But its looking like the same old sh1t again.And next season will be hard alot harder than this , even names now of players who are only average - good and cost between 4-7 million are getting us excited and even thats a fantasy (so sad).Our youth aswell I mean lets be honest it isnt exectly Ajax or Utd in 90's or Barca of late.
These guys im fairly positive will not go on to be as good as Maldini , Baresi ,Albertini , Sheva , Kaka , Pirlo , Tassotti etc...just named some great players we had wasn't suggesting they came through our youth.

I thought it would be interesting to see where we would go this summer , but it isnt because nothing is happening and the day's and weeks a going by and i can't see any change now.

I really wish Milan can sign De Jong, Muller, sneijder, Honda, podolski and VD Weil along with that N.Korea striker.

Well Id be so happy with Ranochia Honda Ibra V.D.Vaart Caceres and ofcourse the N.Korean striker.

what the heck is going on with this n.korean guy
its like he is a magician
that amaze everyone here on mm

Another slow news day on the whole, and we're linked with Dempsey again

For me, if we want a midfielder, then get a DM to replace Ambro and Rino along with Flamini. A modern midfielder who can protect the back four but start moves and move forward. Jucilei or Kwadwo Asamoah are my picks to really strengthen the engine of our team and have a starting point to build on this mercato.

As Christian said, those are old photos.
