QUOTE (Habitant @ Jun 9 2008, 01:42 AM) are you sure? i have a french buddy and he says domenech is obsessed with lyon players, toulalan included. he says he's pure crap. Of course I am. It's true that the French coach favours Lyon players though, but you have to take in account that they've won the championship for the last 7 years and have a lot of French players in the roaster, that have to count for something ... About Toulalan's performances, right now I believe he's better than Flamini without any doubt, even though I didn't see Flamini play a lot, I can say for sure that Toulalan is playing like that for the last 2/3 years while Flamini had one good season so far, and that counts a lot in my opinion. Toulalan is a Deschamps type of player, you don't see a lot, he's not a spectacular player or has any special gift but he's always in the right place and gets back a lot of balls from the opponent, he's like the Inzaghi of the midfield (IMG: http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

QUOTE Flamini: I always loved MilanWednesday 16 July, 2008(IMG: http://www.channel4.com/sport/football_italia/imgs/flamininews01.jpg) Mathieu Flamini maintains he “always loved Milan and could not turn down such an offer.” The midfielder rejected a lucrative contract extension at Arsenal so that he could join the Rossoneri on a free transfer. “I have always loved Milan and been a big fan, so when this opportunity was presented I could not turn down such an offer,” said the Frenchman on Milan Channel. “On a personal level I would like to win a few trophies. As Adriano Galliani said, a great squad is always full of great champions. Being by their side and fighting for my place can only motivate me to do better.” General manager Galliani revealed an intriguing background to this transfer, as Flamini was also of interest to Juventus and Barcelona. “He was a player sought after by all of Europe. He knew it and made me suffer a bit,” smiled the official. “We had clandestine meetings in Paris, but unlike the other clubs, we didn’t get caught!” Flamini was one of the star figures at today’s presentation ceremony to begin pre-season training, even though all the attention was on new arrival Ronaldinho. Instead, the former Gunner represents a more defensive element who will be needed to give the side balance. “Some have asked me if I feel a little like Marcel Desailly. I consider him a champion and it would be wonderful for me to follow his career, especially with a goal in the European Cup Final,” grinned Flamini. “My objective is to do well at Milan and maybe one day become part of the French national team, but those decisions are made only by Raymond Domenech.” channel4 How cute! Well anyway... at least he cares enough to come out with this predictable and fake comment... I like him already! (IMG: style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

(IMG: style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) Like that will ever happen as long as you play for an Italian club and your name is not Vieira (IMG: style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

I think Mathieu is the best signing we made this summer. He's a modern DM. Strong in defense and also useful in starting attacks.

QUOTE (Portikins @ Jul 17 2008, 05:19 PM) He'll be a modern benchwarmer so. Good. If Rino and Pirlo maintain the same level they've shown last season...Flamini could do more then that.
