Our captain must be proud

Anyone knows whether there will be any sorts of celebration for our Captain at the last home game against Udinese? I am planning a trip to Europe in May and I haven't finalized my route yet. Would there be anyone have information to share? I think it will be a special moment for sure... but I don't know whether it's special enough for my girlfriend
Thanks.

Hell of a game tonight by "Il Capitano".... Never showed any signs of his age, the only one to have deserved words of flattery and applauses tonight!!!
It's a big shame that he is going to miss out on a ticket to Moscow in May though

EUROPE SALUTES YOU PAOLO!!!! GODSPEED, and good luck with the life off the pitch

Just one idea: Paolo, one more last year !!
And if he stops (he'll stop), we'll have to win all we can next year for him (Serie A and CL + why not Italia Cup) !!

Going to make a tribute non-forum page for Maldini, anyone wants to contribute with text, pics, ideas reply here

Forza San Paolo

I doubt Maldini will play next season. He has said that he will retire at the end of this season and Maldini always keep his words.

Too sad for Maldini. He really did well tonight with the spirit more than Arsenal players had. But most of our players didn't have spirit even half of Maldini spirit.

A true leader, a true champion! I will miss Maldini so much.

It is sad. After Van Basten, Gullit,..., Costacuta, now the last player of my old Milan will leave soon.

Farewell, our captain!!!

Anyway he's still going to play some matches ... we'll have to profit with all the last moments he'll spend on the pitch.

He's the first legend I have known in football (I'm 22) and he will probably be the last one, unless a small guy named Maldini too becomes our next symbol ?!

Too bad for Paolo I was looking forward to wathcing him go with a crown in Moscow

Perhaps he could stop at the end of the current year and just enter on the pitch on the last game of next year, the one when we'll take the Serie A trophy ...

Dont forget the CL trophy as well

Maldini has been so solid this year, do you guys think there is anyway he'd come back next year? I sure hope so...

Mo chance he is a legend but not even he could play with 40 years in a world of such speedy players. He is a class for himself but I think he wishes to rest it isnt easy to be a pro too much training quarentine and in his years he could be were prone to injuries and I dont think he whises to be made a fool by kids half his age but 2 times faster and he certainly wouldnt want to limp for the rest of his life . He should become new sports directore of the team and leade them in a new trophie filled era.
And who knows maybe in 3 to 4 years his son will play number3 if he is as half as good as his dad we will beat Reals CL trophie record and soon a second star will be put on a jersy

Reza, count with me... there are some many different aspects to Paolo's life/career... family, football, friends, fashion, charity, etc. that it's worth dedicating some time to each...

Maldini said he would think about a new last year ...

to him !!
