A 4-3-3 is not something new, not when you're playing Urby and El Shaa on the "wings". I'm 100% certain that we'll end up forming up with the same shape on the pitch as we have been for the last few games. It will become congested and our only tactic will be to cross the ball in whenever we get near the penalty area

Here's a crazy idea. How about we actually wait to see the 4-3-3 before deciding it doesn't work. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

It's pretty obvious when he chooses a certain player over the other in regards to how it will turn out.

It's not simply about the formation, a 4-2-3-1 could also easily turn into a mess if he's playing a bunch of runners everwhere who have a tendancy to drift to the center.

And the predicted line-ups all show that he's going to be picking the same players but instead of having Prince tucked in behind the strikers he'll move him wide. And we all know how it will eventually turn out

Prince isn't playing. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

Or maybe I'm missing your point.

According to Italian newspaper 'Leggo', the Ferrero family is interested in purchasing Milan from Berlusconi. There have been contacts for months now, and the group is currently studying the club's balances and budget. The next important meeting is scheduled for spring 2013. Michelle Ferrero is the richest man in Italy and 23rd in the world, according to Forbes.

I don't know anything about the man and how he would manage this team. I don't know what to think of this news.

It'd be too good to be true.

Could be good IMO. Especially as the new owners would be Italians.

My only fear is that the Milan we all know ceases to exist - the gallant, traditional and modern, special Milan that legends always point out. One can easily say this is already the past, but still - as long as we have people in the board who know how this mentality was achieved, and who participated in it, we have a chance. Once this is gone we could turn into a good, even great club, but without that special thing.

And to me, this is what counts. Milan's specialty is more important then any United, City or Blaugrana silverware.

Thing is (and correct me if I'm wrong cause I'm not too knowledgeable about Milan's history) we are using a total different approach than we used before to achieve our greatness.We are getting free players disregarding their tainted past..maybe the old Milan wouldn't accept such players as Cassano.The history books will only tell if this kind of approach will fail or succeed but I'm willing to venture with new owners who will invest if we are losing our identity anyway.

I don't think it's a new approach. We always signed players like that. But the thing was - we used to transform then, offering them a totally different atmosphere and mentality which most of the troublemakers used to understand and cherish very much.

Agreed!

Further, Berlusconi had invested a lot into Milan. Has contributed significantly in exposing the world to Milan.

We could have ended up the Torino to Juventus, Juventus being inter. That alone has been the crucial element in my support for his management of the club, considering we were almost bankrupt and all that stood between us falling to Serie C or D was Silvio Berlusconi.

That said, many fans don't comprehend the financial difficulty this club had to bear. Let alone neglecting the reason it went into administration in the first place. But that is all fine and dandy, considering we only knew Milan as a CL giant and the home of legands.

I do agree that I'd rather be a very good club with a soul rather than a great one without a soul. But the "family" Milan seems to be passing on a bit and we're not the same club anymore. I'd rather us return to being a contender, then worry about being classy, rather than the other way around.

Crespo calls for Milanese patience

Hernan Crespo has defended the Coaches of both Milan clubs following their problematic starts to the season.

Massimiliano Allegri has seen his Rossoneri lose three of their four League games, while Nerazzurri counterpart Andrea Stramaccioni has witnessed his side defeated on two occasions.

“I don’t think they are to blame,” the former striker, who represented both clubs during his illustrious career, told Sport Mediaset.

“The trouble is that the philosophy of the clubs is always to win and that is why the fans of the great teams don’t have patience.

“Now neither team has a great player who can win games by themselves, but they now have important youngsters who are part of a growing squad.

“Inter and Milan are following a project which they seem to strongly believe in and I can’t see that there is anyone who needs to be slaughtered.”

The two San Siro giants have made substantial changes to their squad over the summer in an effort to cut costs.

“It’s strange because the Milan clubs are now thinking like small teams do,” Crespo continued. “Things are changing.

“Inter and Milan are planning for their futures in a different manner. In the past they targeted ready-made champions, big players.

“Now they need a good eye to spot talent and have the patience to let them mature and grow. This is a transitional phase and we must not condemn anyone.

“Juventus did the same thing and look at them now…”
