QUOTE (misha @ Jul 27 2008, 09:39 PM)  All of our keeper options are not Milan worthy IMO Admittedly, yes. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sleep.gif) But I'd at least get the best of the bunch above in the pecking order. Injured or not. Out of form, or otherwise. Putting Kalac above in the hierarchy is just meh. |

He has been in decline for the past 3 years and last season was bench for someone like Kalac (shows you how bad he was). For me it's simple - we must buy a new keeper that would number one without saying. |

A keeper spot is too big of a hole to keep hanging. It's a key position and we gonna regret about it unless one of the 3 somehow has a wonderful season |

A GK is imo 80% responsible for the teams success and there is no wonder why we have failed season after season with the keepers we have.

Very true, but also a smart person would have thought of this before and not let the squad ge to the state that it has come to now. 2 players every summer for the past 3 seasons would have been the smart thing to do and I'm 100% sure that if we had done this we wouldn't be in the position we are in now (ie UEFA Cup). We still need a top class goal keeper, a top class center back, someone that can stand in for Pirlo, although I have faith that Flamini can handle that positition, obviously not do the same thing Pirlo does but he can fill it in better then abybody else we have, and we need another great box striker. Trying to market Boriello as the next Van Basten or whatever Galliani is trying to do won't work, and it certainly won't make Boriello any better. As for actual spending counting the guys going out and what we made on them and the guys coming in. We only spent about €10 - €15m this summer which is not much especially for a club like Milan who are supposedly in a transission fase, Fiorentino have spent more then us for god's sakes (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) |

Instead of dealing with the problem, Milan brought Abbiati who of course won't solve a thing. |

The only reason Abbiati was brought back in was because we couldn't sell him, he was close to joining Palermo but they didn't want to pay what we asked of them, which I totally get after the disaster 2 seasons he had while out on loan. And in the end Palermo ended up with Amelia which shows you how smart Galliani is. Galliani only used the 'new GK signing' tactic to in some way placate the fans. And he must be delusional if he believes that the fans actually fall for his cr@p |

Unfortunately, we lack that smart person at the top. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) I can't help but agree what you said. I too am 110% that if we had signed more than one good player every transfer window, we wouldn't have been in the mess we are now. We just went into a shell after the Sheva loss. Didn't buy much, and what we did wasn't world class. Pity. We could have finished at least 2nd, if not won the league if we had bench strength. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sleep.gif) |

We can hope that the defense is good enough this year so that they don't have to make that many mistakes.

This is the right choice. Kalac is now our most reliable keeper. Which is... disappointing. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sleep.gif)
