I talked about young players (from Milan) that are not big talent like Balotelli. No one said Balotelli not a big talent. The Milan young players are not big talents (mostly).

oh ok! my fault then!

I hope Galliani is not gunning for Albertazzi for the excuse of not properly sealing up the defense...

How did he go in the recent friendly. Not totally convinced wiht T.Silva.

Did Nesta play?

We are talking about a guy of 18 years that is in the first 11 of the Italy's u20 team. enough said?

And thats why i am so happy to see Leo here instead of Carletto,because Leo will give more chances i think to our talents like Albertazzi and Strasser.

Strasser is one tough nut! Will be hard for him to uproot Flamini/Ambro and Gatusso though!

Still,as i backup he could be fine,he would eat Cambiasso and Muntari up,i really would like him to see him battling Muntari

Matteo Darmian has been loaned out to Serie B side Padova.

Good. How about Cardaccio and Viudez?

I didn't read the Darmian news anywhere...but according to Wikipedia he plays for Padova next season. I guess this means we're keeping Favalli and Oddo....yuck! I hope Albertazzi gets promoted to the first team.

I saw Darmian's news at milannews.it and Albertazzi has already been confirmed as getting promoted by Galliani.

At the moment, Galliani is sayig that everyone could be the "new" Maldini! Good to see Darmain loaned out, and yes, Viudez and his Uryuguan teamate shouldnn't stay at Milan this season, and should look at a loan offer.....

It seems that Marco Gaeta is going to Primavera next year, as he followed the team in a tourment at the end of last season, but how about Uros Palibrk？
Will Zigoni, Beretta, Ikande, and Oduamadi(not sure of the spelling) these young players stay in the first team or go back to Primavera?We seem to have so many forwards, will Uros come to Primavera? I wish to see him playing in higher level matches...
Does anyone know something about him or his future?

We have to be patient with the youngsters. Let them have their time to show off their ability.

Gaeta could be in the Primavera next season since he had having great season with Allievi last season. At the beginning of last season it seemed that Palibrk was not the first team player for Allievi but in tha later stage he showed what he could do by making many goals. Remembering there are many forwards that could play for the Primavera, Palibrk could be put in to the Beretti.

I think only one or max. two of the players you said would be put in the first team player. Zigoni has the best chance comapare to others especially if we don't get any striker in this summer. I think, Beretta will play for Primavera since he is still very young (17 years old CMIIW). Ikande and Oduamadi could be called up to the first team in some occasions since they are pretty unique players compare to Beretta and Zigoni. They can play as forwards or midfielders and we lack of offensive players in the midfield department.

I personally will be happy if one of them play for the first team next season (not only listed as first team player but never get real chance like Darmian last season).

I want to see more from Strasser and Albertazzi,and maybe maybe when we have a injury-crisis upfront then Zigoni could step in to make some minutes.

These are the only youngsters who can really add something,not only in depth but also in terms of quality,for years now we have heard good stories about Strasser,he is confident and has one hell of a work-rate,always fighting for the ball and he looks like the new Rhino,also Albertazzi should be the new big hit at Milan,one of the hottest prospects nowadays,and we need a good LB for now and the future....

They are showing some good stuff in pre-season,and most importantly: We need them.

We need a good LB as we all doubt a new LB will be coming,so Albertazzi has to step in.We need a good replacement for Rhino/Flamini,a young guy who replace them when they are injured/tired and who isnt scared to make a impact make fouls,and Strasser is that guy.

So i am counting on them for 2 reasons: 1.They are the Primavera players who are really up to the taks 2.They have acctually no choice as Leonardo needs them to add some depth and young blood to the team,we wont buy anyone maybe so we have to get that depth and quality from our own youth,wich is a good thing.

At least they are kind of ready to make minutes when needed.
