Well at least I'm not the only one saying it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

I do sense a little misunderstanding about my view on him - I do think he is a special talent to have been as good as he is at this age - but the lack of improvement over the past half year and arguable regression (most matches see two or three errors now, one usually being big - that just wasn't the case 6 months ago) is concerning and is a case against his being the Greatest Goalie Ever in the Future Of All TIME! If he recaptures that old form and starts to look like he can save shots like Icardi's weak opener in the derby, I'll be happy again. I am just a little worried about the slack people give him when there's points on the line.

Milan are more important than any individual player's future.

We must not make the mistake of selling our precious young talents just because we have money now. They are the backbone of this Milan team at the moment. We should spend on experienced players and champions to strengthen and add depth, not replace the good ones that we have right now. I'd like to see Aubameyang, Deulofeu, Fabregas/Pastore, Musacchio, and someone similar to Kante being brought in the summer.

All the other names are fine. Not sure of Aubameyang. He's a speed merchant who'll cost us close to 70 MM for 2-3 years more at max. Is he really that worth it?

What about this Mbappe kid? I read most big clubs want him already.

He's incredible. I've watched him. Quite a few times now. I think he's on his way to becoming the best striker around. He just makes the game look so incredibly easy - seems to have a telepathic understanding of the game and reads it so well - his instinct and anticipation are world beaters.

He strolled Ligue 1 this season, makes UCL look a dawdle - if Milan signed him I would literally run the entire circumference of Glasgow naked and upload it to YouTube.

PS he's also 18, is the youngest player in Ligue 1 history to score a hat trick and has a conversion rate in Ligue 1 and UCL of 1 in 3:

I want us to sign him just so I can see Danny running naked. He's amazing. So the four youngsters who've really impressed me this season in Europe have been -

1. Mbappe
2. Dembele (Ousmane)
3. Tielemans
4. Pusilic

I'd be thrilled if we could sign any one of them. The first two being forwards are going to have exaggerated fees (70MM+), but the other two might come in for 30-50 MM.

But considering Milan are saying, we'll only spend 50 MM this window not including cash from player sales - not sure what the likelihood is of anything happening.

Yes, was lumbering into this thread to post that and you stole my thunder, Sparrow.

But yes, that 50M Euros story has resurfaced again and is starting to look more real. More than a bit disappointing but it still means two 20M players and one 10M. Which definitely rules out Mbappe!

I'm hoping this is a budgeting thing. Meaning 50 MM is total outlay, which if you consider amortized payments is perfectly reasonable.

What do you guys think about Pasalic. Do you think we should sign him for permanent deal? On Aubameyang, I just think that combine with Suso and Deulofeu, that's a pretty menacing and unpredictable attack.

Yes, it will be. But think of the cost involved? I understand we're probably losing Deu and Bacca and Ocampos next season. So we might have to rebuild the whole attack. Spending all of 70MM on one striker seems a bit risky.

I seem to be one of the few on here who's advocated Pasalic. I like him. He's not exceptional, but he's a hard worker, gets forward well, and he's enthusiastic. He also scores the odd goal here and there. I'd keep him.

If we are rebuilding our midfield, then Pasalic seems an expensive proposition to purchase just for depth.

Meanwhile Tuttosport are running a story claiming De Sciglio told Milan, he's not interested in renewing and will be joining Juve. I'd call BS, because if this were the case, why make him Captain.

Because Montolivo and Abate are injured. MDS isn't our captain, he's just filling in.

And honestly, considering how bad he's been on a constant basis, it wouldn't be the end if he left.

DS can bugger off, he is no Maldini.

could agree with that anyone that wants to leave can leave for a price. we should get every thing we can get from him to juve.
