if i remember he really is not making much at all, especially when considering how much Oddo, Kala, Favali, Janks, etc make. He really should be given a shot IMO. if he proves he is worth more money i think that is great, it would mean we have a younger talented FB

Thats just show how cheap Milan is these days.
Where they are willing to give out huge contracts to Ambro...but they are giving out nothing to Antonini.

NOw I am not saying Antonini is a Maicon or Alves....but he is a solid player and actually has the will to run, run and run some more. Where as guys like Oddo, and Kala, esp Kala just simply lost the desire to even make an effort.

Oddo is a mystery to me he cannot run he cannot pass he cannot defend he cannot cross a ball he cannot tackle he cannot break up play , he adds nothing to the team in 2009. It seems that he is playing matches just because Milan are paying him HUGE wages.

Look, we made the mistake of signing him and giving him a big, long contract. It's not his fault; he is simply agreeing to his end of the deal, which is to play football for us. Why should he leave us and get a pay reduction elsewhere when he's happy either playing or warming the bench for us? If you want to blame someone, blame Galliani.

Yes our mistake but I wasn't blaming him I was saying I do not understand how he is playing when he is off colour and past it. He is getting paid but that doesn't mean he should play Antonini is maybe a better option but then I don't see him in training everyday so he must not be doing good. But Oddo is a liability no pace no confidence bad decision making.

how much would Foggia cost? If we bought a FB (Motta, Cristico, etc) and Foggia, we could have a very dangerous 4-4-2. If our midfield had Pirlo and Flamini in the middle, and Abate and Foggia on the wings, that would be a fast dangerous outside, that would be able to service our strikers. Foggia is also a gifted tribbler that can take opponents on.

Funny enough, the thing about it is that Foggia was a milan player before he was bought by Lazio...I knew he was skillful, fast, and strong but Ancelotti didin't want him...i'll pick him over Rossi!!! we need players like this!!!

I was just about to post the same thing spina_don!!

Question is, was he sold outright to Lazio, or do we still have part-ownership?

I don't think we should go "backwards", though, by getting Foggia...(We've seen the results of that with Oddo, and Boriello) I would prefer our investment to focus 1st on proper wing backs, and then a winger/playmaker...if funds allow.

Rosina would be one of my top targets, and I can't believe no one in the team scouting organization thought him worthy of Milan this mercato!!

If i recall correctly, Rosina was sold to CSKA Moscow for 11m pounds

Foggia is still young and i think he would be perfect if we could get him. Send Oddo back the other way.

And if i remember Rosina was sold for 6 mil, which is nothing, we should have had him.

I know Rosina was sold to CSKA....just continue to wish we had gotten him...

Well if you watched the match against Roma, that guy Guberti that came on, he fricken owned Oddo, did whatever he wanted on that flank. Bad bad Oddo

Oddo scares me against Real. Can we use Flamini at RB for that game? if we use a 4-4-3 with-

---------------Dida---------------
--Flamini-Nesta-Silva-Zambro--
----Abate---Pirlo---Seedorf----
-------Pato---Huntelaar---Dinho---

Huntelaar and Seedorf should start, because both of them are Real outcasts that want to stick it to their former team. Dinho also should start because he has played well historically against Madrid. I like the speed that Abate adds to the midfield in comparison to Pirlo and Seedorf, and I trust Flamini much more at FB then Oddo or Janks.

if not wrongly recalled, he was part of the 'package' that in return we got Oddo - meaning that he was permanently sold,

WOW we had him before !
