So start saying "Man Utd" when you mean Man Utd, or go back to whatever forum you got lost from (I'm sure someone can point you in the right direction).

easy bro...

does this guy have a bad rep or something?

Hehe, not to my knowledge, I just flipped when i read it in thread after thread

People should know their places, it's pretty obvious this is a Milan forum, is it not?

Don't worry, just add to my rep as an apology

well well i spoke too soon

from channel 4:

Despite scoring 50 League goals in two seasons, Palermo admit they are ready to sell Luca Toni and bring in Andrea Caracciolo as his replacement.

“Toni cannot expect to get any more money out of Palermo,” slammed President Maurizio Zamparini. “His current wages will not be increased. It is true that he is now an Italian international, but it’s not as if we cut his salary when we were in Serie B.”


Fresh from netting 20 goals in 35 appearances this season – almost half of the Sicilians’ total tally of 48 – Toni’s agent requested a meeting to discuss his future, but was given short shrift.


“If Toni wants to earn more money then he’d better hope that Milan, Juventus or Inter come to buy him,” added Zamparini.


The notion that this is no mere empty threat came when Brescia patron Gino Corioni revealed this weekend that the club had made an offer for Andrea Caracciolo. “I think Palermo is in his future,” he confirmed.


Caracciolo’s similarity in style and stature to Toni would suggest he is being drafted in as a replacement rather than a partner.


This has alerted all the big clubs to Toni’s availability and the former Brescia man could be a cheaper alternative to Alberto Gilardino for Milan.

If all of the above mentioned were on the market I would pick:

1) Esposito
2) Toni (who I believe is not on the market)
3) Di Michele

Flachi-- no.

But Gila and Cassano are on the market for sure. That is why I brought them up.

I do not think that Roma want to sell Cassano so much. So do Parma with Gila. That's why they rise their price so high

You dont like Flachi

I wonder if Palermo is refusing Toni in Caracciolo favour, does not mean that he is better. I have seen Caracciolo for several times, he made me a good impression especially in matches against us.

I also do not deteriorate abilities of Toni, who is a super striker IMO. Almost 50 goals in two seasons is Gila's worthy achievement.

it pisses me off when i see clubs like udinese now and porto and monaco last season self destruct themselves so easily...

they have a great season and for a second they seem to look like they could be the next big thing to hit european football only to sell most of their stars and especially their influential coaches and replacing them by ones that are completly crap

agree. The changes that are taking place in Udine can only hurt Italy's image in the CL. Under the circumstances, I am sure fans of Italian calcio would rather have Samp as the fourth team in the CL rather than Udinese.

hmm this transfer needs at least a month more - if its actually going to be taking place..

Who can refuse the lure of something called Cash $$$ ??
Udinese would sell their star players in order to get profit from it and to buy replacement players with equal quality ( and reasonable price ). It's like when Juve sold Zidane and brought Nedved to Delle Alpi, the same case.
It pleased me when I heard Chelsea offered Milan 87 million pounds for Shevchenko ( that means Sheva would be the most expensive transfer so far ) but then Milan rejected their proposal. Who in this world don't need cash? even big clubs do! But they must realize in order to live long you need to have a healthy living condition, if you sell the health living condition, then prepare to get sick and die.
Milan is surely a club who knows how to make himself healthy, don't you agree?

Oww...man!! I buy newspaper everyday lately just want to know whether Milan had finally sign Gila or not, looks like I'll have to stop the habbit for at least a month

instead of getting the newspaper everyday, you could just get on milan's official website to check if we signed him or not

for some reason, i'd prefer cassano.. i dont know why.. maybe cuz he's going to be the next Totti..

Well, I didnt post lately coz i hoped one day ill just read: " Milan sign Gilardino..." But... it looks like something is really wrong and I really dont understand galliani and silvio. We have pippo ( 32 ), JDT ( useless), crespo ( not our player yet!!), and the king- sheva. If we can sell tomasson and net crespo, a club like milan can surely play around 30mil for player of Gila's calibre. He is 23, Italian and worls class striker!! Im afraid juve has something to do with it, and it looks they will get mancini from roma alost for free....i cant believe!!! It really makes me sick!!

well why not earn that money by actually progressing well through the CL and keeping the players u had aswell... oh and for the record, i said the thing that pisses me off about these clubs is that they replace them with crap players so the nedved as zidane replacement at juve example doesnt imply here... god man, udinese sold jankulovski and got a crappy candela for him? while the year before, carvalho is sold by porto and this kid from the B team takes his place, why not sign dellas instead? u get around 20M for carvalho and as i recall dellas cost 4M at that time so thats a big profit

stupid stupid stupid!!!

does anyone else think our midfield could use a bigger boost too? I understand the need for a forward, however our Midfield's legs wore out down the stretch and the backup's well they didn't exactly help carry us as we lost the league durring that same period of time, I understand Vogel and Marek will help, I am wondering about a frontline starter . . .

if possible id love to have ballack
