We need to rebuildthe old Milan

First of all......Maldini hurts the team??? No comments from me on that....just that it is the stuppidest thing I have ever heard from anyone.

Second......Gattuso isn't good enough??? Are you serious? I am not the biggest fan of Gattuso either, but to say that we sould sell him becuz he sux is crazy. Simply because if he isn't on the field, we would have conceded far more goals then we already have. Then............maybe you'll call for us to sell Nesta too??? We need Gattuso. Do you know what happened to Madrid when they sold Makalele???? They still lack that player in their team and to this day they can't find anyone that's even half the player Makalele is. So What are the chances that we will find a great replacement for Gattuso?? Not that good.

Third.........How do you know if we have approached Ballack or not. How do you know that our managment isn't approaching another player that they think is a better deal then Ballack. You don't! I don't! Calciomercato doesn't know, Channel4 doesn't know! Nobody knows except the bold guy and the guy with the money. But the papers have to make money don't they?

I don't agree with the stuff you say at all. It is all nonsence to me. Yes, there are some difficulties at the club now, but to sell half of a starting line up that was in a CL FINAL just 9 months ago is insane.

obviously we should not sell the whole team as many suggest and especially maldini..even if he doesnt play, maldini boosts the confidence of the players for just being there..

well, if an offer of 20 million comes in for Gattuso, i really think it would be great to take it without any hesitation and he can be replaced very easily by Ambrosini, if not Ballack.. i dont know if Milan consider him irreplaceable especially after the comments of him wanting to leave.. i have noticed that every1 wanted him to be the captain after Maldini retires but at the moment, Ambro is gettin the captain's armband even when Rino plays, and if Max isnt on, Sheva gets it, and when Sheva once got subbed off, it was Dida that got it..You see how many players come before Gattuso after his comments of wanting to play in UK?.. maybe im just speculating because it gives me nice ideas, but maybe they just might actually think of selling him?..

i really think Milan should be gettin a player that knows how to cross and pass properly, i honestly do not know any player in europe that has as many bad passes/crosses/shots as Gattuso..but yet again his physical presence is important for Milan and he does shine sometimes..his angry attitude is an advantage for us as it boosts confidence of other players in the team, but it also is a disadvantage as how we've seen before with him getting sent off, and with his childish acts with Poulsen at the end of the Schalke game.. so there's lots of pro's and con's, and i really dont mind what happens, but he is the only player in the starting lineup that i do not mind replacing..

Gattuso is irreplaceable.

Of course, you can play someone else in the position... but what Gattuso adds is something special.

Ambrosini is injured again... he's 3rd. captain after Maldini and Costacurta for his many years in the team... I guess in order, the C armband goes like this:

1.- Maldini
2.- Costacurta
3.- Ambrosini
4.- Shevchenko
5.- Gattuso
6.- Rui Costa
7.- Dida
and after that, could be anyone.

Gattuso is after more than just being captain... Milan will only see him go if he asks for it openly. He will not be traded.

Btw, Rui and Dida were both captains when Gattuso was on the pitch..I think it was vs Ascoli..

Rui was captain at the start of the game, then when he was replaced by someone, dida got the capt's armband

You're right... I could have listed them above Rino... although last season Rino got the band in at least one game... can't remember which one...

Honestly, I would not be upset or mad or disappointed if Gattuso leaves Milan.

I beleived that some of the current Milan players really lost interest in playing for Milan. Not saying they are not quality but they just seem to not giving their all for Milan.

It is very hard for a player to stay in one club for their whole career, especially if they won everything there is to win with that club. Ofcourse there are exceptions like Maldini and Billy.... but for most players sometime a change in environment will help them perform.

Thats my two cents for the day

Just read in an Israeli site that Milan trying to get Shneider from Ajax, I heard that he's good but didn't see him much in action. But that made me to remember another great young player... Heitinga. As far as I know he is a multi-role player that can play as well as in defence as in midfield... and we usualy use one CD to move up and push if the opponent playing too defensively, so he can be perfect for us. I think he has a good shot also...
