Still, whats going on with him? He can't be worse than Kala

he's 19yo now, not too young for some games in the first team, if he's good enough he would be getting minutes... especially with our sh*tty bench... So probably he isnt that good as we all have hoped

i'd sign Bordeux's left wing back with 7-8 m euros then switch Zambrotta,Abate and Antonini to right wing back position...Rafinha has never convinced me about his defensive qualities...

i dont know Why Albertazi isnt playing,he is really good,but as left wing back,i dont think so,Antonini and Abate are ideal players for there instead him.but as a CB,he would be better alternative than Kaladze...

maybe he is not getting many chances because we have many CB's,Favalli,Kaladze,
Bonera,Onyewu..

the coach played Favalli or Kaladze,gave thier chance,as they are first team players,getting high salaries,if you play Albertazzi when you have them,you say them indirectly,you are waste of space,you are useless...

This is why Albertazzi wont get his chance except coppa italia games,when we have some healhy defenders,italians thinks about this things much.its nature of them...

i wanna see Verdi at right wing and wanna see what he can do there...he can find his place and can be a good alternative unlike Albertazzi,cuz we dont have any alternative there...

David Luiz would be perfect. He would be a long term replacement for Nesta, but in the meantime could be our new LB. Whenever Nesta or TS get injured, he'd play CB.

It will be interesting to see who gets this guy. Real seem to be the best bet after Pepe got injured.

Bosnian media reports a few days ago Galliani went to Wolfsburg to meet with their president Dieter Hoennes. Supposedly, they only talked about Dzeko and how to lower the requested 40million pricetag.

40 Million thats ridiculous , we will miss out on him because of his price we can't afford 4 million nevermind 40 million.

I may be wrong on this, but I think Dzeko has a contract clause that allows him to go only to Milan for 40m. Other clubs would have to pay more (unless Wolfsburg decides to sell for the lower price).

I believe he will come, but in the summer, not now.

Not 40, 25. That's the number that was quoted around the time he signed his new contract. I don't know where this new 40 million comes from, and it sounds like bull**** to me. It's in Galliani's favor to inflate the numbers to the press, now that he secured 25million already last summer. No matter what happens, he can say that he lowered the price. 25 sounds a LOT less than 40, so he seems like a bargain.

I think what he's trying to do now is to add Huntelaar into the deal, so that it's a $$$+Huntelaar. Now it all depends on how much Wolfsburg is valuing Klaas. I think that's how the press got 40, 25 (Dzeko) +15 (Huntelaar) which is stupid.

It's more like this: 10 million + 15 million (Huntelaar) = 25 Million (Dzeko).

What's happening now is that Wolfsburg are trying to increase the 10 million and Galliani is trying to lower it. If they can't agree, we'll sell Klaas to a third party and buy Dzeko for 25 (his release clause)

I also think that is the deal. Milan will in the end spend 15mln+Hunter and that means that Galliani will invest again almost nothing.

About Benfica defender, I havent seen him but I know he can play CB and both fullbacks, so if he is any good it would be good to buy him. Rui is a director in there so Milan has firm connections.

I am still hoping for one more player in the winter ( aldough that is not possible ) as I dont see Milan buying more then 2,3 players in the summer. Even that will be more then I expect ( Cf, FB and CM ).

Adiyiah will go on loan in the summer as he was a cheep buy so that we cant buy another NON-eu player this winter.

Has anyone else seen that the Togo bus was attacked by Angolan rebels with gunfire and the driver was killed + 2 players were shot tragic I hope they will be okay.

Yes ...
Actually, the driver was killed, 2 players are in bad state and 7 other persons are injured ...

Togo want to retire from this CAN and they want it to be withdrawn.

This really is awful surely a check on the region was done , but you do not expect this to happen to ordinary people who have nothing to do with the country they are in. I know it was supposedly against the government officials on the bus but sh1t come on that was horrible one of those times i feel shook reading news.

It looks a bit more shocking (umh I'll have to check how it has to be written) because it's about football, a national team going to a big competition ... but actually, it's not more shocking than what we see everyday all over the world

Human beings shouldn't exist, we are the most stupid animals ...

If we include Hunter in a deal for Dzeko......then I will totally agree with Mrki's theory that we got Hunter for free in the Kaka deal. Because I don't see the logic in us refusing to spend 25/30mil on him in the summer....however all of a sudden we are going to spend that sum plus Hunter (who supposedly cost 15mil)???? It just makes no sense. Galliani is a lyer, but he's not stupid.

This whole thing stinks, and I have to say that I am slowly buying Mrki's theory. It just makes sense....because everyone out there thinks that we actually paid 15mil for Hunter. So even if his tag dropped down, he will still be valued at no less then 12/10.....so in other words Galliani gets his man on a 10-15 mil discount, because he simply didn't pay anything for Hunter. Otherwise why would he pay 20mil or so plus Hunter (15mil supposedly) which comes up to 35 mil when Galliani obviously thought that Dzeko isn't worth that just 5 months ago.

I'll be glad if brk is right
