[Fillipo Simone]

As every year I'm making this little calculation. I'm not sure many of you are interested, still...

Don't know why, I can't find last years calculations thread. Anyway, note: bold are calculations for this year, and in brackets last years.

Squad size: 29 playes*

*Strasser, Darmain and Viudez included
**Last years team roster counted also 29 players

Team age average (total): 28,24 (29,62)
____________________________
Goalkeepers: 34,0 (35,6)
Defenders: 28,7 (30,5)
*Midfielders: 26,6 (29,0)
Strikers: 27,4 (25,0)

*Kaka marked as midfielder, Ronaldinho as striker

I don't think the team average for Milan is that bad ... Sure having a younger squad means having a team for tomorrow ... But when has Milan ever depended on developing talents ?! In Berlusconi's era, surely this never happened. Milan go into the market, buy what they need and that is it. And in that sense, I don't think it is a reason for alarm to be sensitive about the age pyramid in Milan, rather be comforted in that if an important element like Maldini leaves or Seedorf, rest assured they will be replaced with the best in the market.
