lolz.. he didn't impressed when he played against Catania in Coppa.btw i think that was the 1st time he played for 90 minutes in Milan's official game.. and look what we got? but i've been impressed with Alberto Paloschi's performance in that game

The point is: Buffon is a class above. The other candidates are more or less on the same level.

of course Buffon is CLASS.but it will be the same question like: could u take the moon for me? Buffon is loyal.he will stays in Juve.give the chance to Frey.and Amelia is the 2nd GK in Italy while Abbiati just 3rd.but my suggestion is go for Frey (more realistic).although i would die coz i'm happy if we could sign for Gigi.

i agreed..our major problem is GK and "someone who will be able to score in Europe and Serie A". i always pissed off when everytime ppl says Milan is AC.Kaka.but can u blame them for that? apparently only him who knows where is the net

EVERYTHING you said he cant/doesnt do he did and still does it, but maybe i'm watching/talking about a diffrent Gila ?

He has 5 goals to his name? so how the bloody hell didnt he score? that means, he did open spaces for himself...
also, when he has the ball and cant pass a defender he passes to Kaka/seedorf or whoever and tries to run through the Offside-trap
and in Germany vs Italy, HE DID Dribble, and he still dribbles in Serie A
he's not fast? then why did he beat lazio's goal keeper to the ball like 3 times?
and how the hell does he run from 40meters out to the penalty area faster than almost all Milan plays if he's slow, HAS WINGS MAYBE?

And yes, i am proud to have Gila in Milan!

Gila mate has 4 goals not 5 goals!
He has 4 Serie-a goals and 2 CL goals.
Gila mate is the third choice striker at Milan.After Pipo and Ronaldo, Gila comes 3rd, and very soon with Pato he will become a fourth choice striker .So you should realise that Gila is not playing or will not play too much because he is not playing good.Gila is not a top class striker.

pippo will retire soon and so will R9

I would spend big moneys just on Buffon.

Boruc definately is above Abbati. There actually no comparision. He is in large part the reason for Celtic being dominant in their domestic league & over acheiving in the Champions League.
Did you see what happen to Celtic when he was out of their line up for his operation? They were losing and drawing games to sub par opponents. He's back now and the looked different. (Although their past 2 games have been pp)
I will put my neck on the line and say...Boruc will make life REALLY difficult for Barca and if he is really on they might even advance. BOLD prediction, yes, out of the realm of ppssibility no. I say pay the buy out clause and bring him next year. (as long as it's not crazy $$$)

Someone also mentioned Ochoa's name and he is definatley underrated. WHY? Because he doesn't play in Europe. What makes it worse is that he doesn't play in the Argentine or Brazilian league either. How many Mexican goal keepers are there in Europe?
People know he pretty good...but he's actually brillant, he's aggressive, good with good reflexes, and does very good on crosses. He also always seems to be in the right position to cut of the angle on a shot or pass in the box. In a league like the Mexican League where defense is suspect he is excellent.

My girlfriend is Mexican, and she has this sattelite dish/box that pics up feeds from Mexico. So I saw him all this year, and believe me if he was playing in Europe the way he plays in Mexico all the big teams would be fighting for him.

UNDERRATED!!!

Anyone of the two would be excellent!!!

Yes. Right now we have Pato and for sure we are gonna buy and another Striker like....Amauri/Benzema......and Gila we be again a thrird choice striker!
So no problem he will be at bench for sure!

I still believe that Gila can play much much better with a second forward near him...

I hope it's just media crap, but goal.com saying that Barca going to buy Amelia...

And how Zambrotta is set for a shock Juve move...

Sigh... I hope we sign him...

Ah, misinformation, the next tactic in putting down Gilardino.

Gila goals: 5 serie A, 2 UCL.
Inzaghi goals: 0 serie A, 2 UCL. (scored in other cups, you can count him in finals)
Kaka: 7 serie A, 1 UCL.
Ronaldo and Pato 0. for obvious reasons.

Now put over the penalties that Kaka scored and Gila would have a very good statistics and the rest would have quite miniscule ones. I think it is four penalties or even 5 in serie A, excluding a missed one. That would put Gila on 9 or 10 goals.

Convincing post. I admit i'm not super informed about Boruc, so i will wait for more informed comments about him and to see more in the next CL tie.
