Every club has this, but as we know, Milan are not every club.
Basically the most illustrious teams in any club's history are usually what fans would describe as a class befitting the club's name. The standard they expect. For Barca they will always expect Messi/Iniesta/Xavi/Ronaldinho/Eto'o type quality. Won't settle for less now. Man Utd expect Giggs, Van Persie, Ferdinand etc. For us it's clearly the quality of Maldini, Baresi, Boban, Pirlo, old Kaka, Gullit, MVB etc etc. Question is will we ever see 'Milan class' again? Right now we have debatably one player who comes close to being uttered in that kind of breath, Balotelli. And truth is he isn't the finished article, his attitude is often disgraceful and that's now 5 matches we've lost him for through poor conduct. We have very good players like De Jong (imo arguably one of the top 5 DM's around), Monto (out of form at the moment admittedly) and Kaka (nowhere near convincing anyone he's back to the old Kaka) but other than Balo we basically have no 'Milan class' players at all. Right now this Milan is a new breed, a team we're not familiar with. We're having to be content with Abate, Mexes, Zapata and DS when it used to be Cafu, Maldini, Nesta and Jankulovski. Times have changed and it may be decades before the true Milan class returns. |

QUOTE (kurtsimonw @ Sep 30 2013, 02:18 PM) I can't agree there. Who was better back in the day? The only rival in that position was Roberto Carlos and he was technically slightly before Jankulovski. |

Ashley Cole and nobody else was even close to being in his league. I expect you to disagree, but that's my opinion on the matter. |
