No, but we (are about to) sign a Senderos. Lack of pace isn't the guy's issue. It's that he's got dreadful positioning and, honestly, just isn't all that good. If he puts the jersey on I'll support him, but honestly? It's embarrassing to me to see him at the club. Milan has a tradition of having great defenders - the Invincibles of the Sacchi and Capello era, for example - and in no way, shape or form does Senderos come anywhere near Tassotti, Costacurta, Baresi, or Maldini in terms of skill, talent, or class.


Of course he's no where near those greats, but consider the role he's going to be given. he is behind Nesta, Maldini, Kaladze, Bonera. he may be good ebough for Milan's 4th/5th choice defender. maybe even better, maybe even worse. we still don't exactly know how will he do in Serie A. English league is a bit faster and he's kinda a slow (but stronge) defender. his physique definitely suits Serie A better. his intelligence though may not... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Assuming he passes the physical and stuff, then Senderos will be a Milan player. As such I'll support him when he wears the jersey and hope my dire predictions are inaccurate. (Fishdoll would prefer Darmian to be the #4 centerback, for what it's worth. He likes the kid).

I don't think so. Parma is/was a good club. And there he'll get the start most of the times. In a SerieA club, he might not have gotten a gauranteed firstXI start.


I know they've introduced some great strikers before, it's the league they're gonna play in that bothers me...

We all like to see homegrown defenders step in, but with Carlo in charge that's almost an impossibility. I can't see Darmian get playing time other than in some Coppa matches...

And he'll play off Cigarini...should prepare him for Pirlo in a few year's time. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

You're a bit behind the times here, Jack, Cigarini has moved on to Atalanta. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Apparently...very behind the times. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dunnosmiley.gif) Now why Parma? Coz they have a better training setup??

I'd heard Sampdoria were interested as well, I would have preferred he went there then...

Apparently both Genoa teams were, Jack. Not sure why Parma but the news popped up late last night and was confirmed today. They must've made a better offer -- or maybe young Alberto just REALLY likes parmesan cheese on his pasta. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Like an offer Milan could not refuse? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) Parma does have some of those kind of offer-makers (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

Some interesting comments this morning. Nemanja Vidic said that he is unhappy in England, he hates the weather, etc. He likes playing for Man U, but can't settle in this country. He also said he'd like to play in another top league (He only mentioned Spain though), so hopefully people at Milan took note of this. Even if he is a United player, I wouldn't mind us signing him next summer as a top CB.

Vidic IS rather good. Wouldn't mind him either.
