Winter Mercato

everyone got his own opionion. mine is that we never changed style or gor some new players. we play with same team year by year.

and about gila, give him pato at his side and he will shine like a star, i am really convinced about that.

we don't have bench idd: favalli, brocchi, serginho, ronaldo, simic, ... all weak players
even ourt first team is weak: amborssini, oddo, gattuso, ronaldo, dida,...

we should really invest in players.

and finally action has been taken, it has come by our greatest talent: maldini, he also says nobody of the youth will go to first team. he want to change that by devolopping the youth more
love you maldini

Equating Buffon to Ronaldo as savior is a good comparison. I agree that Buffon will be a perfect substitution for Dida, but Buffon is probably the only person in the world who can replace Dida. Frey et al. are just fantasy names on paper right now who have little experience in Champion League game; indeed, will you compare Frey as Buffon or as Ronaldo (as a striker?)? I don't think so. I don't think they are on the same caliber, yet, though potentially they may.

I just had a thought, when we got Ronaldo to save our season, he was fat, out of shape and he just came back from injury...

That kinda shows how sad our attack was... and it's shown again how sad it is that Ronaldo isn't playing...

So, I can't be comparaing Ronaldo to Buffon, because Buffon is not fat, slow, out of shape and sliding down the hill... Getting Buffon (still the best on the planet) is comparable to getting Eto, Henry or even Drogba...

Therefore, we don't need Buffon (altho getting him would be a fantasy signing, can play in CL too!) to improve our Goalie situation... we just need someone that doesn't make blunders, and there's plenty out there...

Even if we storm Moscow and get Alkenviev (or whatever his name is) and kid does make some blunders (as some proclaim a goalie needs experience etc etc), we won't be making things worst, coz I don't think we can go any lower than what Dida has been doing the past few months...

ochoa, akinfieev are greatest GK talents. but they say milan was interested in a amazing brazilian talent 'bruno' i think.
we need someone. but it is not only our Gk that is not good. defence is also not good.
no what i say: al our team is not good enough.
galliani thinks that R9, kaka and pato will save the season... KAKA is no machine

You know, for some weird reason, I have the same gut feeling as well... I think we're not alone...

I hope it's not us just being hopeful-wishful Milan fans that wants to believe in a happy ending...

I still haven't given up to Gila... but I must say he's running out of time... till 31 May 2008 to be exact...

How about these news?

Drogba declares: I'm leaving Chelsea
tribalfootball.com - January 06, 2008

Didier Drogba has declared this will be his final season at Chelsea.

"It comes from me, I said what I am thinking, that I wanted to leave," he told Eurosport.

"The problem is that I say that I want to leave since two or three years.

"Mourinho's departure didn't help, to the contrary it made my desire to leave even bigger.

"I am not going to speak about that (his next club), we will in the meantime.

"My major objective is the ACN and winning all the interests we have to win when I'll return for Chelsea.

"The most important is the Champions League but when you are playing for the English title, you don't swipe on it."

hahhaa hopefully he will do what we feel
we'll see out first match what pato-gila will do if they carlo want to put them together on the field. because 1 attacker is to few.


----pato--- gila
------kaka-----
--seedorf---prilo


if he fails ill change my avatar :p

Hey Guys,

Is it just me, or is Zambrotta not playing at Barca?

I briefly watched the Barca game yesterday, and he wasn't on the field... and come to think of it, I haven't seen him in a long time...

He injured or something?

Plus Ronaldinho not playing as well...

And both of them linked to us... Could it be? You think we're negotiating for them? They are finally coming over?

As for Ronaldinho, i didn't saw him at the barca's bench.

Zambrotta was relegated to the bench some games ago. They put in Marquez in central defense and put puyol in the right. This is not the first game he sat on the bench, he have played very little recently.

Ronaldinho is said to have an injury.

I don't think they will come before the summer though, Barcelona don't have a replacement for Zambrotta in the squad and something big like Ronaldinho sounds more like a summer move.

Then we must sell Ronaldo.Ronaldo is a great world class striker but the problem is that he plays 1 game in 20 games because of injuries + he is 31/32 years old.
So we bought Oliveira 17m euros + Gilardino 26m. euros + Ronaldo 7m. euros =50m. euros!!! , and finaly noone from these players didn't do their job good.We should sell them all.

In midfield carlo liked Ribery and he finaly bought Emerson. No comment!

In defence we need a RB and a LB for sure. We bought oddo for 7m euros and he played one good year.Now he is 32 and he is not good!And we need again a RB.Why we really bought him?Oddos transfer was good only for one year.On the other hand we got cafu who is 37 and he cant play 90mns.Finaly we have not a good RB!!!
As for the left back, well what i can say, we got Maldini 39...Ok he is our captain i can't talk bad.On the other hand we had Jankulofski......but where is Jankulofski? Finaly we had no a good LB.
In midfield we really need a player like ribery nothing else.
In GK place we really need 2 good GK's, we cant go on with Dida and Kalac.
Dida really need do be replacement everyone says it and Kalac should have been repalced from years earlier.How we trust Kalac for a second GK, the man can paly only at serie-G!Im worried to know whoes idea was Milan to buy that GK?

One of the most important for our club is that we really have not a good bench! Our bench is very very bad.Serginho,Cafu,Kalac,Emerson,Bonera,Brochi,favali...... we don't have a bench!
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Thats it.That was my opinion about what we should change in our team.

I agree to all except the Gila's situation...

Thanks for the info Tony, i can always rely on you

Do you think Vargas could be used as a more advanced option, like Serginho? When Gio first mentioned him, i was hoping he was a winger rather than a full-back.

I dont know why most of you guys blame Gila all the time he? He could score alot this season he could be blamed for that but now alone why dont you blame his teammates for not creating chances and passing the ball to him when he's free? Why dont you blame Carlo for not playing with 2 strikers when we play agaist teams that defend with sth alike 9 or 10 defenders? Why not the managment for not buy new players for the coach? Why not those fans tha booing the team at San Sero so that our players lose confidence? Why not Inzagi for not scoring a single goal in the league or Carlo for depending on 30 + years old players? Etc etc etc.

What I want to say is of course Gila is mistaken but some of you makes him a scepgoat and the same comes for Dida, he makes some mistakes and at the same time some worldclass saves, and BTW all Milan players do the same with exception to Nesta who is always worldclass and Maldini 2 or 3 years ago.
We do have many problames in both defense and offens and Dida and Gila are not the only 2 reasons, even if we have Van Basten and Buffon in the team we will suffer of these problems, the team is realativly slow and old and some of our Midfielder are inconisitant, our fullbacks cant cross, our bench is very thin plus the fact that our team cant win a single game home, who could you blame only 2 players for all these problames.

Why in all that years Pippo who is 34-35 is first choise over Gila?
I think from that question you can find the answer.

I don't know much about him, but he seems more attacking minded. Nonetheless i've got the impression that he can be a good defender too. Look forward to watch more games from him...
The price wouldn't be superior to 8 M Euro IMO.

well gila and pippo are 2 different types of players... don't compare them.
gila need co-striker
and pippo don't, he just stays in the box and rely's on 1 quick pippo action.
gila needs a fast striker next to him who creates openings.

and IMO it is not gila's fault. it is the whole team! he haven't got any decent ball to score.
