Well it will certainly allow other younger players to play... I view this as vital for their development. I'm glad Brocchi is leaving... he gave away the ball way too many times. I don't think he had the quality to play for Milan.

Exactly. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) Normally I wouldn't pick on a player that plays for Milan, but Brocchi did his damage, whether intentionally or unintentionally. He did get the job done, as some have said, but when has getting the job done ever cut it in top flight football?

Besides, who knows he'll have a better career at Lazio, may fit into their plans more. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) Hasta La Vista!

Well he fit in Fiorentina okay... so I think Lazio is better for him. It just irritated me he was substituted instead one of our other players... he didn't really deserve the time he got because I felt while he gave quantity... quantity is not quality.

Yep (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Though we should keep Oddo, as it's not wise to have only one natural RB. Bonera is not very effective in that position.

Agreed.

It's bad to sign a player after one good season, so in the same respect it's silly to sell a player after one bad season. Oddo was key to us grabbing 4th + the CL in Athens in 2007!

Yeah I think we should keep him too. He had a bad season... it happens... Janku had a poor season too... even though wow... he's back in great form.

Brocchi had zero talent and skill. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) He made up for everything by working very hard and nonstop running around the pitch. That will never cut it for a club of Milan's caliber, when you think more than half of our squad has ultimate talent, and specific skills depending on their position.

I'd have kept him if he kept quite like Favalli, and played when necessary. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) But he made his fair share of noise. Let me say this again, you'll never score goals with someone like Brocchi (particularly if his partners-in-crime are Gattuso and Ambrosini, defensive mids). You need to have some creativity in to really put the opposition under pressure. We all know when we failed to beat, or wait for it - draw - with mid and low table teams. Pathetic, really, now that I think about it. We couldn't even score one goal.

All that's left to say is thanks for the memories, even though they weren't that great. And good luck in Lazio!

I have to be honest, I can't remember much that he did for this club, if anything at all. When I think of something in the past that I remember Brocchi doing, it's giving the ball away at Old Trafford to assist United scoring against us. That about sums his time in Milan up. At least Kaladze has done something of note than we can remember him for!
