Why would Dida cancel such a lucrative contract?

I would be happy if i was being paid 4m p/a just to laze around

Exactly

So because he's not playing right now, he's "lazing around" in the meantime? **** this.

Look, why do you get angry when people insult Dida? He is not wanted by the majority of the fans in the club and probably should have left the club earlier. Furthermore, he earns 4m a year. That means that he is one of the best players on our squad. He is a top asset. That is why he earns 4m a year.

But he is not. In fact he's 4th choice goal keeper. He is behind Storari and Roma for gods sake. Thats just sad.

Given our finanical situation and our strict policy on not wasting money; a 4th choice goal keeper earning 4m just isn't right. Thats why people want him gone. He is a holding back the club with his huge wage.

but hey I know he's your favorite player and it must suck having to deal with these comments, but that is the reality of the situation. So save yourself the time and stress and just ignore the comments. There going to come until the day he has left milan. To many people Dida is looked as a greedy, lazy, unmotivated goal keeper who is just sucking milan dry as much as he can before he retires.


just my 2 cents. But do whatever makes you happy.

The question though is why is Dida still 4th choice? Either he is pushed to first choice, or he must get a paycut. But pushing him to 4th choice is a little unfair on Storari and Abbiati. Abbiati was rightfully first choice and on current form Storari definitely should start.

Not that this is Dida's fault, but nothing can be done here.

I think Dida should volunteer for a paycut, or ask for a contract cancellation. But we don't even know his contract details. He might already be on a lower pay scale, because a minimum matches played stipulation might have been placed in the contract.

I think the management are waiting for Dida's contract to run out to release him. it'd not be respectful in their eyes to force him a contract rescission, I guess. paycut? that's different and given the current circumstances I think it'd be more than fair. there's no balance between the players' earnings whatsoever.

[Jack Sparrow]

I think the same. He will be released. It's something of 'going gently into the good night'.

Schalke 04 manager Felix Magath has stated that he believes defender Rafinha is destined to be sold, when the transfer window next opens in January.

The Brazilian has been linked with a move to Italy, with both Milan and Juventus interested in the services of the 24-year-old.

If both Italian teams put in low, or inadequate offers, German giants Bayern Munich could also become involved in swooping the stopper, as they are also following the situation with interest.

"There is no better defender - who can go forward - better than him in the Bundesliga," Magath told Novantesimo.it.

"If he continues to play like this, Bayern will have no choice but to contact us.

"Although, should he maintain these levels of consistency, a team at the level of Barcelona may also contact us."

Over the summer transfer period, Schalke were rumoured to be wanting at least €10million for the defender, with no team willing to pay that much.

I have never seen rafinha but i would think under 10 M for a highly rated FB would be a great buy!

No worries, ganney.(IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) It's just polite to other boardmembers to cite where the news comes from.

Fabio Capello believes that Manchester United were clever to persuade Real Madrid to pay them €27 million more for Cristiano Ronaldo than Milan received for Kaka.

The England manager thinks that the Red Devils' ability at the negotiation table saw them walk away with a great deal for the Portuguese winger.

While rating Ronaldo highly, Capello thinks that Madrid paid over the odds for the star because he feels that Kaka is not far behind in terms of ability or importance.

Milan were paid €67m for their prized asset by the big spending Spaniards, but the Premier League outfit reportedly agreed a deal worth €94m for the Portuguese.

"[Ronaldo] is not worth £25m more than Kaka," Capello said in an interview with Marie Claire.

"You can see that Manchester United’s directors have been cleverer than AC Milan’s in their dealings with Real Madrid."

HAHAHA! Even Capello is calling B$G retarted (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

He's fourth choice only because he didn't play one minute of the preseason for whatever reason (thank you, Milan Lab) and the team's rash decision to replace one dud (Kalac) with another (Roma). And not to worry, folks, he'll definitely be gone after this season.

About our no-wasting-money policy, whatever that is, tell that to Digao and Chedric Seedorf and the Brazilian duds we've recently paraded through here. The management gave him that contract and it's their obligation to honor it.

He's lazy and unmotivated solely because he has a big contract and is relegated to the bench? Bull. For years his teammates have publicly asserted that he's one of the hardest workers on the team (not too many go and work out in the gym AFTER training sessions), and that showed last season when he ably replaced Abs when he went down.
