It's really a double edged sword I guess. What if there are two teams - Team A and Team B? At Team A he will play. And at Team B he will play with a good foundation and at an excellent atmosphere to develop. But Team B will only take him on a co-ownership, while Team A will be willing to take him on a loan. What then??
Now I'm not saying this is how it is, but it could be. We can't judge without knowing facts. And they're not gonna reveal all the facts either. For all you know, this co-ownership, might not involve money at all, but first option on Rosina. I don't consider Milan as complete retards on the market. You don't last 20 years among the top 10 clubs in Europe that way.

It's what Diavolo says, it makes sense.

They usually do co-ownership deals rather then loans because the players would get much more playing time then they would if they were just loaned.
But still co-ownership deals always favour the big clubs so if he really does well next season we'll buy him back

I still don't get the Borriello one, as we do have the numbers for that. We sold half of him, then bought that half back for £6m. Now we definitly did not sell our half for that much, so surely that's just wasted money? I honestly don't see the upside for Milan in this deal. Yes, he got first team experience, but he would have got that from a loan too, and it'd have saved us £6m as well.

QUOTE (Rossoneri7 @ Jul 24 2008, 10:18 PM) Ur speaking on hindsight. It's really irrelevant, it's just common sense, especially with young players. Loan:The player remains yours - he gains experience elsewhere - you then have the player back at the club. If he turns out bad, you sell him for a small price, if he's good, you've had to pay nothing for a good player. Co-ownership:You make a small fee to sell half - he gains experience elsewhere - you have to buy the player back. If he turns out bad, you can get rid of the other half of him, you don't make much. If he's good, you have to pay out to get the player back. So the outcomes are:If he's bad? You barely make anything on either a loan or a co-ownership as he is not of much value. If he's good? With a loan you keep a good player, without costing you a thing. With co-ownership, you have to end up paying out to get him back. I do not see one single upside with co-ownership. And I'm amazed that after the Marco situation we haven't learned from it and have done it again with Abate.
