[Milan Are Brilli...]

Hopefully, nothing more than back up..!

At least Gattuso has someone to fight with now.

Well I've got two things for you, Han: 1) If we had our own version of Bommel, we wouldn't have any need to bring him here. 2) And like I said, the club is free to make certain exceptions. And 3) I thought you just skimmed through my posts. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Reasons enough for you, LOL?!

But really, a major reason he is here is because Bayern did not renew with him due to their new policy of keeping and promoting youngsters. Also the reason of the recent renewal with Schweinsteiger with the whole of the fan base jumping up and down with joy, because this would tie him up with the club till he's what, 32? Six years extension, if I am recall correctly.

I think we as fans and some players get attached to the club quite emotionally. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) Nothing wrong with that, of course, but this does not hide the fact that there is life outside of Milan as well. Ask Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, Kaka, Sheva, Brocchi and even Pirlo in a few months time. For my money we should cherish the moments that a certain player played and gave to the club - those are way more powerful than the feelings on the day they move on!

And more then that, we are lucky enough to witness them play - live in stadium, or via mobile phone videos, Youtube and HD feeds, archive matches, photos and what not. Back up till the 90s the media was no where near as strong and a lot of great players did not get their careers captured as they deserved to be.
