All right guys!if you all think that maldini and costacurta must not retire........then i had nothing to say!


If they can mark players like eto'o,drogba,torres,villa,henry,robben,joke cole,ronaldinho,messi(not with foul)..........................................then they must sign a new 5 years contract with milan!
Wee dont need barzagli or terry or Chivu!We are complete!
----------------------------------------------------------------
Some of you said "How can you said that about them"!
All the world is talking negative that milan is a club with many players more than 30+ years old!
If you feel proud about this,i cant understand you!
-------------------------------------------------------------
But you should realised that milan this year and last, plays a bad football!They aren't good!I had many years form anyone to hear that milan playes good football!
We need big refresh!
--------------------------------------------------------------
Real sign marcelo as a replacement for r.carlos!Thats great!
And maldini said he thinks to extend his carrier!I think thats funny things for a club like milan!
---------------------------------------------------------
i think you undestood my point?

Here's the latest rumours of today:

Belletti's brother/agent says that they did receive an offer from Milan. They are studying all their offers but the first choice for them is to stay at Barca.

Galliani comes out and says that Milan will try to sign (surprise surprise) Toni in January, and our options in goal keeping are Amelia, Sorrentino and then Buffon. He also said Kaka wont leave because he is a symbol of Milan and will be the captain of Milan after Maldini retires..

Making Kaka a captain is a wrong move IMO but if thats what it takes to keep him then let it be.

Other names were linked today

Milan want Zambrotta.. zambrotta wants italy return...

Felipe, Zauri

heard a english story, that Mourinho is tired of sheva, and that chelsea are now after david villa to replace him...

where did all the sharpness in this world go?
you still don't get it do you? It wasn't your desire to see Maldini and Billy retire that prompted that response from other members. it was the poor - pathetic, I might say - choice of words that you used.
I am sure that there isn't a single fan here who wouldn't want to see billy retire after this year ... in fact, most would say that his career lasted 1 year too many. More or less the same goes for Maldini although I think he could last one more season if he thinks he could make it physically.
Either way, however, hardly anyone would say that it's a shame Maldini and Billy still play for Milan or that players who have been involved in 20 years worth of Milan history are shaming the club with their presence on this team or whatever sharp remark you came up with ...
Peace

Guys, i'm sorry for this off topic question, but this was the only thread where my question wouldn't have been totally off topic :

How reliable Corriere dello sport is ?
Because both Corriere and Tuttosport came out with a news that Inter just offered Adriano + 20 M Euro for Buffon. They say negotiations started few days ago but Juve blocked everything until summer.

Thanx !

I'll try to count all the latest news, sorry if I repeat some of them from previous posts:

1. We did make an offer to Beletti, but it looks like he will stay in Barca.
2. We want Oddo and are offering Bonera or Simic + 5 mil. The talks are onder way.... Oddo isnt happy with new money balance in Lazio.
3. We are also interested in Felipe, his agent has confirmed.
4. Zauri....not good enough.....
5. I've heard about Toni....please make this happen Galliani........
6. Lucas, young Brazilian CM.
Thats about it, for today

I dont know about Zambrotta, and I dont think its sossible to buy him untill summer. Sorrentino could be our way to Amelia becouse Livorno wants money + keeper for him. Let Gigi stay in Juve, he is Juventino and is almost 30. aLdough he is the best GK in the world. So if we can, by some miracle, get Toni and Oddo and Lucas.......we are more than fine for the second half of the season....

not very reliable if you ask me. Corriere are more or less the Roman version of TuttoSport - hence don't read, don't ask, don't tell

Plus, if Inter were to sell Adriano, even now in this difficult for him moment, they would be able to get a good 30 mil from Real or Barca or the likes (count Chelski in too given Sheva's failure to impress over there).
So, if the rumour were for a straight swap Adriano for Buffon, it would have had some credibility in it, I think, but Adriano+20 mil for Buffon ... it just sounds too unrealistic and crazy even for a transfer guru-wanna-be like Moratti.

Thanx Zlatanov !
Eh, if it's up to me i wouldn't have accepted even 100 M + Adriano for Buffon, but it's getting really annoying to see Buffon more and more connected to Inter lately.
What worries me even more is that Tuttosport also wrote about this , and as much unreliable they are, i have to give them the credit for being the first ones who said Vieira and Zlatan will go to Inter, Zambro in Barcelona, Mutu in Fiorentina and Canna in Real M.

Offering Bonera or Simic for Oddo for me is a joke. (nothing directed at you mrki, as u are only reporting info that you read). He is old (30+?), and I think Bonera has potential. Simic is too multi-functional to let go (dont believe I would ever type those words! ), and for Oddo? Not a good deal in my view.

As Croatian most capped player of all time, and as a player who gives everything when he wears the NT jersey, i have nothing but huge respect for Šimić. Like you said, he's a versatile defender who plays full-back, sweeper and central defender. But he's 31 and he doesn't deserves to be benched most of the time.
And atm, he can offer much less than Oddo, who's a year younger than Dario .
Oddo ( don't forget he spent 3 years in Milan youth clubs, and was a Milan player who was being loaned all the time since 1995-2000, before his contract with Milan ended and he went to Verona) is in life form atm. Plays attack and defence with same passion and quality, and he can cover ( attacking wise) the RB position, which isn't well covered atm in Milan.

You know better than me what's best for Milan, but if Lazio accepts straight swap Šimić --> Oddo ( not very possibile, tho),or even Šimić+money for Oddo, then i wouldn't hesitate much, and i'd be all for it !

I dont know actually, whats better...but I just think that we shouldnt let Simic leave, especially when he can cover so many positions...Oddo can only play RB...and I would love for him to come over to us, but not at the expense of Simic or Bonera

Dont understand why we are going for Belletti when there is Alves.

cause belletti will be a free agent, I believe, while Alves would cost 15-20 mil and that's if Sevilla agree to sell him and he wants to come to Milan ... he refused us once already.

While that may all be true, I'd rather keep Simic and sign a younger RB. There seems to be a lot of Oddo fans, but to be honest, he never impressed me that much. I would like someone who can grow into the role, not someone who is going to be retired in 4 years.

Really, that's my only gripe about Milan. Signing 30+ year old players. Most of whom are on free transfer. (Ok, so that's not entirely true, but it sometimes feels like it)

i don't care if belletti is a free agent or not, he's an average defender at best and not the quality of player we need.

there must be far better options out there.
