On a side note, has anyone else read about the bust up between Shevchenko and Ancelotti ? It's on Calciomercato right now, i'm not sure if it's about the trip to America or something more than that.

When his cheekbone was fractured, the doctors put a titanium plate in there to literary keep his face together. Now this plate was successfully removed several days ago and as a result of this minor intervention, Sheva would have to be kept aside for another 2 weeks or so, which means no American friendlies and no TIM Trophy for him.
He seems to be anxious to get back in the squad and this delay must be frustrating for him. This looks to be all, nothing too serious.

K77SH C · 18-07-2005, 17:17

Im the only one whos not totally convinced about Gilardino, but only because Iv seen very little of him. I hope he the striker we have been searching for since Weah left

hitmannq8 · 18-07-2005, 17:23

Gilardino will be sold tomorrow to Juve they will steal him from us...

haha just joking.. trying to tease Hasan Rossonero :P

Congratulations.. i was out all day, and connected online on GPRS.. i read the news from tgcom.it and just started shouting in the car.. my dad was driving and he thought i was getting a heart attack seriously lol :P he wanted to beat me up after he found out the reason :P then my bro shutme up and said¨"so what? we got vieira last week and i didnt give any **** cuz we´re winning everything next year anyway"

Anyway, im quite sure our transfer market is closed.. I hope we get an alternative to Cafu.. For sure it will not be Cicinho, 100%.. because if we were to get him, it would be in January..

I also hope we try our best with Ballack

pirlo2004 · 18-07-2005, 17:26

At last good news, come on boy do it for Milan make us proud....
Time to go out and all buy Gilardino shirts...
Does any1 know his shirt number yet????

hitmannq8 · 18-07-2005, 17:39

Someone said that he will be taking Rui´s #10, but that would be just so RUDE..

He always has played with a number 11, and the #11 isnt used, he should be taking it!

K77SH C · 18-07-2005, 17:42

Milan wont do that to Rui, if they were ever going to they would have given it to Kaka. I think he will be made number 11.

Gilardino’s Arrival Ends Summer of Discontent

“All I want is for Gilardino to do what he's done for the last few years - to confirm the great forward that he is,” utters bald-headed Milan VP Adriano Galliani. Without question the news of Gilardino’s arrival is the most satisfying sound Milan fans have heard since Spanish referee Manuel Enrique Gonzalez blew his whistle to signify half-time in the Champions League final in Istanbul on May 25th last.

It’s been a long while in coming, however, for Milan supporters across the globe, it’s been well worth the wait. The arrival of the Italian international striker, for a transfer fee reported to be in the region of €24million (£17m), is certain to be greeted with a collective nod of approval from the Rossoneri tifosi - still smarting from their side’s embarrassing second-half capitulation against Liverpool in the aforementioned Champions League final – and will go a long way towards satisfying the calls for a world class signing to improve a team which spectacularly fell at the last hurdle, both at home and in Europe, last term.

Gilardino, who has scored 23 goals in each of the last two Serie ‘A’ campaigns, is now expected to complete a medical at Milanello tomorrow before flying out with his new team-mates as they embark on their pre-season summer tour of the United States.

The five times capped Azzuri international joins Czech Republic defender-cum-midfielder Marek Jankulovski, Dutch midfielder Johann Vogel and former Internazionale favourite Christian Vieri as Milan’s major, nay main new signings, but it will be the arrival of Gilardino that will be capture the fan’s imagination most.

Born on the 5th of July 1982 in Biella (45 miles outside of Turin), Gilardino grew up a Juventus supporter, and even up to last week certain sections of the Italian press were speculating that he would join the club he supported as a child after a last gasp intervention by Juventus GM Luciano Moggi. But It’s been no secret that Milan was the first preference of Gilardino (as recently as last weekend informing journalists that it was either a move to Milan or to remain with Parma until he was a free agent in 2007) and vice-versa, however, an exhaustive bout of executive haggling over the last month or so left some fans wondering whether or not the player would eventually end up at the San Siro, and if so, the possibility that it could have been in a Nerazzuri shirt instead.

Gilardino made his Serie ‘A’ debut for Piacenza on the 6th January 2000 - fittingly against his new employers, Milan – and went on to score 3 goals in 17 league games for the club before moving on to Verona in September of 2001.The subsequent 2 seasons saw a gradually progressing Gilardino score a further 5 goals in 39 league appearances before joining Parma in the summer of 2002.

In the end, it was the six-times Champions of Europe who won the most coveted signature of the close season, and the club can now boast one of the most fearsome front pairings in world football - namely Alberto Gilardino and reigning European Footballer of the Year, Andriy Shevchenko. Waiting in the wings will be the aforementioned Vieri and Filippo Inzaghi while Danish international Jon-Dahl Tomasson, who was sold to German side Stuttgart over the weekend, bids farewell to the San Siro.
