Someone let me know, much appreciated!

Try but tickets the minute you get there. may be sold out, but you might get lucky.

Stupid question from someone who's not really familiar with Danny Alves' genous :ashamed:

What do people see in Alves that is so special ?
He is a typical midfielder, right winger, who was given the RB position. Attacking wise he's so much superior when you compare him to the right backs, because he can cross, shot, dribble....but then, many right wingers/midfielders can do the same thing.
Now look at him as a RB only who needs to do defense. Is he really good here ? Is he any good here ?

Dunno, but if i put Camoranesi to be RB i think i'll be gettin' the same thing.

If i play against an opponent that has a fast left winger, like CR7 or Robben, i really wouldn't like to have Danny Alves as my right back.

That's why i see his price tag ( 30m, even 20m) as unrealistic.
If i need a midfielder i think i could find a better one than Alves. If i need a RB i can find many better defenders than Danny Alves.
It's only me but i'd rather have Zambrotta as my RB and Camoranesi as my RM than Alves to do both jobs.

Now, tear me to pieces with your replies

Pato sets decision day
Wednesday 1 August, 2007
Highly-rated Brazilian striking starlet Alexandre Pato has set an August 15 deadline to decide whether he will join Milan or Real Madrid.

The 17-year-old, nicknamed ‘The Duck’, has been tracked by a host of top European sides including Chelsea, Liverpool and Inter, but is now ready to join either the Rossoneri or the Merengues.

Internacional of Porto Alegre have reportedly demanded £15m for the youngster’s signature, but his rescission clause is set at just £9m.

“My dad is on his way back from a tour of Italy and Spain where he got to know the set-up at Milan and Real,” Pato told website globoesporte.com.

“Pato will decide in the next few days,” his father confirmed. “Things surely can’t continue in this unsure manner so we have to decide one way and end this saga.

“We will resolve this before August 15 once and for all as there is no point in renewing his contract at Internacional.”

Pato will only leave the newly-promoted Colorado when the Brazilian Serie A season ends in December.

you might also wanna take a look at this thread, at least the more recent posts in it.
but keep in mind that tickets will most likley be sold out days before the day of the game.

no, but that means that the tickets available to Milan fans thru the website would be few and that would make it even more difficult to get one.
I am not sure when tickets for that game would go on sale on the website but I think that would happen several weeks before the game itself and they would go quickly.

Stamina wise he's fantastic. He dominated a player who basically stays in his position all game, and was astounding. That player was R10, in last season's Super Cup. Don't think Robben or CR7 would give him same problems, especialy if G8 is around. That's Gattuso by the way.

about Pato i get feeling he will choose us over Real Madrid due to the amount of Brazilians we have at Milan as well as the family atmosphere. anybody else agree?

Yes and also due to the fact that he prefers Milan personally.
Lets just hope Real haven't offered him extraordinary high wages.

I didn't watch him a lot Tony and that's why i may be wrong. All i've seen from him were the Coppa America games where he wasn't playing as a RB and maximum 3 Sevilla matches where, although Alves did very good in attack, Sevilla's part of the field, the right part, was always empty because Alves was always going forward.

I've never even seen him defend, that's why i may have wrong opinion about him as a defender.

He's like Gattuso, with great technique, playing at rb.

i dont know if works now in this case but could the tax affect the amount of money for his wages or does madrid have any advantage

I used to like ALves, b/c he used to belive it or not, actually defend. But as he gets more hype, he tends to attack more, mainly b/c u get a more money that way(IMO).
So here he is now, someone who just attk, attk and attk. To be honest, I said it here before or in another thread, he is another Contra, period. All this Cinciho, Mancini and Alves as the next Cafu, well, first learn how to defend then u can say u are the heir of Cafu.

As for Pato. I think he's just got to look at how Marcelo is doing in false, how Gago, Higuain.... all falied, and how many strikers he has to compete with. Then in Milan, there is Kaka, R9, Cafu, Serginho, Diago, Dida, Leo all to converse with, and learn the lingue bella di Milan, (and maybe Baptista too), and Alves,.....
