Nice debut for Milan:

Especially considering it was a position which we desperately needed someone for. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Keep it up!

I don't have a problem with Abate. I thought he was one of the better players last night. The first goal was van Bommel's fault, nothing to do with him. In the last two years, the guy has made huge steps forward, and I think he's a very decent RB for Serie A and CL levels. He's no Maicon nor Dani Alves, true, but I'd trust him the RB position any day of the week against any opponent. What really needs some attention is the other side, the LB position. There we only have below par to mediocre alternatives, and it needs to be dealt with this summer at all cost. Armero? Kolarov? Cissokho? I'd take any of them at this point.

Cissokho has been laughed out of Lyon and kolarov doesn't really commit to his defensive responsibilities at City. Armero is the best pick. He is likely the most underrated LB in the game. I just hope Udinese stick to their standard 10-15M range.
