Always everybody talked about how old is our defense.... how we miss a great striker.... and so on and on.....

But, maybe the problems are somewhere else....No one ever mentioned our midfield. Is it that great? I don't think so.

Maybe most of you will disagree and get surprised, but IMO replacing Gattuso and Seedorf with new players in the summer would be a very smart move. Especially you don't agree with Gattuso, I know, but let me explain:

Gattuso has lost his motivation. He is not the one we used to see against Juve in 2003 final, or Manchester last season, the time when he never stopped running. Now, he is a totally different player, he is not fighting and he is losing a lot of balls (like tonight).
And, this is not the only match that I am disappointed with him, but I'm thinking about this for quite a while.

We need hard-fighting players, but who can also hold the ball, make good passes, so we need a player who can contribute in the flow of the match.

A perfect replacement for Gattuso might be Mascherano, and if Silvio would really want him, we would have him, coz he isn't a contracted Liverpool player still (they're trying to buy him in January).

Then there is Seedorf.... I'm running out of words now. He can be brilliant sometimes, but we need players that are always brilliant. (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

I can't think of any replacement for Seedorf right now, but there are a lot of them, I'm sure.


So, what do you think?
Is Gattuso or/and Seedorf the reasons why we are struggling?
What would be the best replacements for them?
And, do you think Milan will replace them in the summer?

Seedorf -> Sneijder!

van der Vaart!

van der Vaart!

Yes, Van der Vaart would be the best solution.

Sneijder is good, but not as good as VDV, and Real wouldn't sell him.
