Mourinho is playing with morratti to get the players he wants. just remember the tim cup. inter passed the ball for almost 60 times before they made us clear the ball. they are improving alot 1-1 is nothing. still 37 matches to go.

After watching game 1, I agree that we need a FB. It would have been 2-0 if Janku did not screw up and also could have finished 2-2 due to another one of his mishaps. We NEED that LB. If not in the market, than get Antonini in there. Janku does not have what it take defensively. BUT, why dont we move him up to midfield? He's dangerous going forward, maybe that's our answer to the creative side. Also, we have Abate on the bench.

I'm happy if a LB is all that is left to come. I think we should give Abate and Janku IN MIDFIELD a chance. That will bring creativity forward. Also, Antonini showed he can bring that spark up front from the left and play defense as well.

Im saying this for 2-3 years: Kaladze is a better fullback then Jankulovski. At lčeast he is capable of playing well defensively and hold on to the offside line. Kaladze played his FB role in Milan pretty well when he did it. He played well with Nesta as a CB ( Im mentioning Nesta as Kala is a defender that needs smart and class player alongside him, then he plays his 100% ). Now with Thiago-Nesta in the middle Im confident Kaladze can play well as a stabile LB for us. He maybe has more muscle power nowdays coz he played as a CB for few years, but he can still play up and down for sure. That is what I think. Crosses I didnt even mention coz MArek cant cross at all.

Bari is maybe the weakest team of Serie A,and they have almost beaten Inter,like i said,Inter is nothing.Usually,Ibrahomobitch would have netted twice to rescue Inter's poor ass.But know Inter face troubles as they dont know how to handle small teams who close themselves up,they have a BIG problem Imo.

We should win next week,Inter really was poor.

Happy with this draw,FORZA MILAN PER SEMPRE!

Guys be careful about how u talk about Inter...they drew today but next week, its going to be a tough match...The same inter that we say suck has won 4 scudetto in a row..we just have to be patient, play our game and take our chances!!! even me as a milan fan is saying that even though i hate them completely

We really do need a LB soon.And Pirlo last night was okay but I think we should of sold him and invested in a similar younger hungrier player. Although that money probably would not of been invested. Janku is so good going forward until he has to cross but as a defensive player hes is ordinary. Im really looking forward to the derby to see how we do , and to see Huntelaar. Dinho was good last night really good and nowhere near at his best. Pato is amazing and can only get better hopefully we keep him and don't sell him for book money.

We will make the most out of Hunter if we have good wing play Abate can do this but no one else can. As for a LB or RB im out of Ideas De Silvestri maybe Bale but definately not Drenhte (is that the correct spelling..lol) as a left mid Drenhte would be good.

Let hope that Weslly will not play in the DERBY!!!!

Yeah guys this was only one game. We will have big problems with Inter next week. I personaly think we will lose that match.

my opinion for inter was always that they cannot play footbal
if they dont get a creative player on the medfield they are awful,at least their style..

for the next week,for me its a 50-50,but if we control the medfield as we can,then we have our chances,the thing is i hope we will have a lb till then better than janku(although i am not sure that any newcomer would play)..

ps im off for vacation for a week,but i ll stay in touch as much as i can..the last time i was on vacation we got hunter btw,so who knows..:-)

he's real young rafinha real good player seen him in the champs league when barca played them and in uefa cup, the reason i like de slyvestri hes almost a 6 '0" back and thats a rarity to find a back with that height in the modern era,what i hope is to replace both our wide backs if we can do that we're a very serious title contender and in the champs league anything is possible...

Also I wouldnt mind Eboue, aldough people bash him. He had bad season, but is a good player for sure, better then De Silvestri, Zaccardo etc.

And, it would be nice to see Leonardo using Kaladze as a LB few times. Kaladze is more then capable of doing that when he is fit.

Right now Nesta and T.Silva look brilliant! To me it seems Nesta still lacks a bit of pace but he finds it easy to play with Thiago as he covers extreme ammount of soace due to his power and speed. One FB that can defend well would help a LOT.

Cissokho was the man, choosen by Leo. Too bad Silvio didnt let it happen...

Until now, from what I know, Leo told Milan(Berlusca) to buy Kaká, Pato and Thiago Silva, Hernanes, Luis Fabiano and Cissokho...

Just for these first 3 players(of course he was reading my thread ), Leo deserved a big role in purchases. It was not that Leo was asking for 30 or 50 mllions type of players...

Can´t believe after Kaká, Pato and T. Silva, Silvio didn´t trust more in Leonardo as a scout...

When we face inter it will be a tough match regardless.. But we have to remember with a big derby like this the thing inter beats us in is they have good back up for every position which affects the game alot in big games because obviously every player on both teams is going to be giving it their all and get tired

Oh, he trusts Leonardo as a scout, he just doesn't want to fork out the money. This cheap bastard is only concerned about making money nowadays that he doesn't care if he missed out on the next big thing. There was nothing wrong with Cissokho other than his price tag.

Is rafinha any good? he is apparently for sale for 10 million

Here is some interesting news, but some of you may consider this as Bull$hit....

Agent admits AC Milan contact for Genoa defender Ranocchia
24.08.09 | tribalfootball.com
The agent of Genoa defender Andrea Ranocchia admits bigger clubs are watching the youngster.

Ranocchia is currently on-loan at Bari and is being linked with Juventus. His agent, Tullio Tinti, told calciomercato.com: "Juve? It seems a bit premature to talk about them now, I personally do not know anything, but something may happen.

"And it's normal that big clubs are interested. In the past, I have spoken to AC Milan many times about him."


And the news I wanted....

West Ham eyeing AC Milan fullback Oddo
24.08.09 | tribalfootball.com
West Ham United are eyeing AC Milan fullback Massimo Oddo.

Oddo was left out of the Rossoneri squad for last night’s 2-1 victory away to Siena and Leonardo made it obvious he is not needed.

“I was very clear with Oddo, just as I was with [recently departed goalkeeper Zeljko] Kalac,” said the Coach.

“I told him if he finds a new more suitable club then he should jump at it, because there is already a set situation here.

“We’ll see what happens from here until August 31, but I hope another wide player can be brought in.”

Now there are reports Gianfranco Zola is offering Oddo a new experience in the Premiership with West Ham United.

Milan idea Faubert for the RB according to mediaset Milan could get Faubert in a swop deal with Oddo
