Torres coming?

Ariedo Braida has said that Vieri is staying with Milan. Does this change the possibility of Torres signing?

Well its widely believed that Atletico owe us quite alot of money from past dealings. This wont make any difference to that.

Is the kid really as good as hes made out to be. His youth team scoring records are fantastic, but apart from that his senior level records are just ok.
Gila is 23 and looks to be having his third great season in seria A.

The conservantism of our board is something hard to believe! Vieri is a worn out player, can't they realize that?!? :-(

We need to get rid of Vieri ASAP, its the best for us and Bobo. If we can get Torres for Vieri and say, 20M Euros, do it. Its a no-brainer.

I totally agree with you, dude.

idd torres, gila and sheva. 3 f the greatest strikers in the world.
with 2 youngsters.

man idd do it! torres has a clear vieuw of playing, he is intelligent, fast and fantastic finsihing skills.

lets all hope

well: snijder, torres, and 1 defender schould come. milan never spended alot of money on players(if we look at chelsea(not comparable),real,juve,inter,man u,...)

where is all our money.
the latest buy was i think kaka (10mil) i think we spent on em. rest we bought for less or had no contract

i think torres has been identified as the future successor of shevchenko in years to come, but he won't come so early, i think at least in 2 seasons time. He won't come cheap for sure, but i reckon it's 5 years Milan shows interest in him and he should only be proud of that.

I've heard that Braida is enthusiastic on El Nino and that being him only 21 we should let him mature, leave Inzaghi his last years with us and get him later on. You can't get such a young player and let him on the bench.Do you all think Shevchenko will accept the bench? Spending 25 millions for a bench warmer is not a clever move. El Nino will come at proper time, he knows we're the best around and that he will play with great players.

Kaka
Sheva/Torres - Gila

I don't think he will move so early from Madrid.

Milan and Atletico Madrid are in good relations.Jose Mari came to Milan,Xavi Moreno and Contra to Atletico.So the deal with Torres might be reallity.But not now,maybe in the summer.

Excuse me, Giovanni, but I disagree with you: I think that if we have the opportunity to get Torres now, we surely must do it, before another club pick him first! And regarding the question of get such a player to be a bench warmer... well, why not can Milan dare to display a 4-3-3 formation? Why not a healthy tatical mini-revolution? ;-)

No need to excuse, i see your point, but a younger can suffer too much bench time, so you need to field him instead you risk to waste his talent.

I say: better that he keeps on doing well at Madrid, his home and his fav club, then when he'll be ready let's get him. I don't know how many minutes he would play with a fit Shevchenko (it's clear he would be his natural substitute as i've heard Torres doesn't like to play as first striker)

From a logical point view you are totally right, but 'calcio mercato' is a mad stuff, and I'm always afraid that 'rogues' like Abramovitch came first to override our transfers.

well milan should be harder at his players. we got 9players who are certain of there place.

we should act harder to player in less form, less ... players who are to certain of there place.

we can do gila on bench, torres playes. then torres on bench, gila plays.
or when they don't perform well, on bench.

our squad is to small...
(btw where is our youth, never see 1)

I strongly agree with you, Prifess: the great problem of Milan is the small size of our squad.

Fernando Torres is a great player, the only thing that concerns me is that he doesn't seem to be a natural goalscorer. As the star he is at Atletico Madrid he really should have scored more goals. Maybe this will get better as he gets even more experience... In Milan?

If Vieri wants to qualify for the Italy-squad for the World Cup then he should leave us, because he's not going to play much. But would Torres risk leaving Atletico for a place on Milan's bench and also risk losing his place in the spanish national team right before the World Cup? Not sure.

As much as I like popular names arriving to Milan... I have to say Rui Costa needs to go... he's a bench warmer, and a very expensive one... we can get a second "10" to help Kaka'... someone young like Rosicky, or Sneijder... and for a striker, Milan should give Ardemagni a chance, little by little... we have not had a promising youngster since Borriello, who never finished blooming and is now lost in Sampdoria's bench...
