strikers problem

My favorite woud be Morientes too. He's pissed on real, didn't come to training (i dont know if it was just once) and they dont need/play him. I heard he wants a move to Italy. And i think he is an excellent player (though he is pretty old, and milan got too many old players). Gilardino would be good to. Bojinov? Never thought it's possible, but i would be very happy cos i like fast young strikers...

Guys, have i got the gift of foresight? reading the points of this thread it seems so."if Sheva takes a cold...." Yesterday we had the prove we are Sheva addicted, and that he's the only scorer in this team, the only player who can lead us anywhere.
But seriously, the fact we need a new striker, a skilled fresh striker who's on fire, who's classy , who's positive, who's not already troubled was clear since at least 2 years. I say this since last year, it's probably my only champaign on MIlan, a bit like Bayman's midfield theory.

Firstly, why have we add an already recovering player like Crespo, who has been a huge mistery in the last two years, to sub an already troubled player like Pippo? Because he was a damn Galliani's beloved bargain. The other choice at hand was Tomasson, who's (let alone the poor form at the moment) an excellent player, but not a world class able to single handedly lead us anywhere, like Sheva.

The point, my point, is this: our shy attitude on the market is just shameful. We needed a great signing since this summer, maybe since last year, when we were lucky that Tomasson and Sheva were both on fire; actually we played with 2 strikers all last season (the other were Inzaghi injured and Borriello out of squad at Reggina). Why we challenge the Faith and continue with this shy attitude on the market? We had put in our team a troubled player, a player who needs time, and the yesterday match has convinceed even the doubters which is our real situation , hidden by Sheva's Golden Ball like performances.
If Sheva stays out 2 weeks or more, we are in AMAZING TROUBLES.
This situation is merely the result of Galliani's blindness, and we must all understand that if Fester doesn't open the wallet, we cannot be lucky forever and win CL with bargains at zero cost on the market.
Fester thinks we can compete for Scudetti and CL without spending on the market..he's obsessed with bargains at zero cost, and wants to prove how good the management is, just to say: we've discovered these players and signed them for a bunch of peanuts, and now they make us winning a scudetto. It went perfectly last season, but this year it's a differnt story, so it's time for an important investiment, so Fester open this phackin wallet. Stop with this shameful Crespo like bargains. Nobody makes presents in modern football without a reason, and if Crespo had been a player able to lead us to a CL, don't you think he wouldn't have come for free?

I totally agree with you.Milan do need strikers.They're depending too much on Sheva.He came of the pitch during the game against Barca and Roma.Look what happened!They were shattered!Mere coincidence?Don't think so.

(Hernan Crespo)/Chelsea-Just can't fit into Milan's system.It's been 3 months and no goals.For a striker that is a horrible record.Should just leave Milan.

(Vikash Dhorasoo)-No starts at all for Milan.Maybe he should go back to France.The pace of Italian football is just too much.

We should buy RVN and close the case forever! He is one heck of a goal scoring machine and has a proven goals record in Europe as well. That was just a fantasy suggestion on my part but there won't be a better duo than Shevchenko-RVN in world football IMO.

The striker problem is evident. But the offensive midfielders aren't helping at all with hardly any goals scored or assisted for! Cafu is the one assisting always!

He is the favorite puppy of Ancelotti, who'd give him all the trust to gain his form by using Milan's games. It explains why Galliani denies again & again that we won't buy any strike in Jan.

He WILL stay through AT LEAST this season so long Ancelotti has his say .

How would you know? He haven't played any Italian footbal yet. I am afraid it is other reason entirerly than this.

[It's not like Milan don't have the money.Most players would welcome a move 2 Milan.Hopefully Berlusconi can roll out his chequebook 2 buy some strikers.


Hello!!!!!
Remember the partnership of Rebrov and Shevchenko that single handedly destroyed Real in 1998/1999.It would be a dream if he can come 2 Milan.Besides,he's cheap!Warming the bench at West Ham when he can combine with Sheva 2 conquer Europe.

What about Gilardino?A person who is second 2 Shevchenko in last year's scorer's charts should join Milan.Not doing too well at Parma.Berlusconi can break the bank 4 his signature.

Milan need another playmaker.Kaka is inconsistent and Rui Costa is getting old.Rosicky of Dortmund seems 2 be a good bargain.After all they're not doing too well in the Bundesliga.Perfect replacement for Dhorasoo.

If i can see these solutions,y can't Galliani and Berlusconi see it.If Milan don't start buying,they can forget about defending their italian title and especially the Champions League!

He has played in Milan's pre season friendlies and he hasn't exactly 'sparkled'.Milan is a team capable of conqueoring Europe and they need players who can create an immediate impact

don't agree about another playmaker, kakà is not a playmaker , he's an attacking midfielder, plus we all have seen what he's able to do, so the one who deserves time is Kakà.

Aswin: Rebrov?? how can he become a star at milan if he cannot be in the regulars at west ham? it's beyond me

Gilardino last year scored 40 goals, plus made Italy win the U21 title singlehandedly . He's a certainty still now, and don't forget he's playing for a minor side at the moment. To be feeded by classy players is crucial for a striker

I'd like Bojinov on the team.

I want to point out that i don't think Crespo is crap, but he needs time to recover a decent form, and consistent trainings, and play some games..but meanwhile, we need to sign a new player..So basically i 'm not against Hernan, but in this situation, esp if Sheva stays out for some weeks, we need a new player to sub Pippo soon.

The last i've heard is that 3 months are few time for Pippo's injury..3 months is the minimum time before start to regain a decent feeling with ankle, but we're not speaking about walking, we're speaking about performing agonistically at the highest levels...3 months are an overoptimistic time..that's why a new signing will be unavoidable..plus, who says pippo will ever recover? here we must realise all that van basten finished his career with an ankle injury, and it can take much more than 3 months.

personally i believe we'll sign a player parma likes, for ex.suazo, and give parma this player + cash for gilardino, who'll not be able to play CL anyway, but at least will give sheva time for rest and more choices..

in this time i do hope crespo will regain his shape, and therefore he will do it with calm, and without so many pressures on his shoulders

Tomasson is an excellent player, who'll come back soon IMO but we cannot rely on him as a regular everygame..

Lyon went further than us in last years UCL. And he did not make a fool out of himself either. From what I heard noone stood out more than him.

Dhorasoo was benched 4 most of last season.Didn't play 4 Lyon that much.
Besides,now is not the time 2 experiment players.

Exactly,Pirlo and Seedorf were bench warmers at Inter.Now they have cemented their places at Milan.Rebrov knows Sheva's style of play and he won't be cup tied.Another alternative would be Bojinov but he is still young and rumour has it that he favours a move 2 Juve.

Well, I assume you know enough about Dhorasoo to know he wasn't benched because he lacked the quality.

He has been one of Lyon's best players in recent years (when they have dominated French football) along with others like Juninho, so I think raising that argument against him is quite pointless.

If he is failing at Milan, then it is more than likely to be off the pitch problems rather than on pitch problems
