Like I said R7, it's not that Gila is a bad player, it is the system we often use that makes him look a bad player. Look what happened toady when he had a strike partner. (IMG:

Oh, so it was a coincidence? Nah, I don't buy that.
Exactly, the goal we scored yesterday was like a replica of the goals we used to score when Sheva was with us. Look at the goals from the 05/06 season and you'll know what I'm talking about.
Imo the fact that there was Pato playing was the most crucial part of the goal.

Very true. And it's sad really when there are other players who because of their terrible performances have cost us much more then the fact that Gila hasn't been consistant

Did I say it was coincidence? did I say it was luck? did I say Gila is crap? NO. I just said he barely played 10 minutes and had
his only shot into the net. what makes you think he scored because Milan were playing with two strikers?!... (IMG:

As I previously said that fact is the most crucial in the goal. Look at the 3 attackers' positions on the field, and how they made that goal from nothing because of how they where positioned. If Gila was alone upfront in the xmas tree I couldn't see that scenario being played out

look at the play dude. it doesnt start unless pato steals the ball, pato being the 2nd striker.
lets say pato wasnt playing, and kaka was then 2nd punta and he happens to rob the ball off obodo? well he has no one to thread the ball too cuz gila is
isolated. it took that middleman to complete the play, 3 guys to link up pato to kaka to gila to the net (IMG:

Exactly

off point a lil, some like to call our midfield the best in the world and gila should be scoring lots well. how many easy chances has he missed this year? 4-5 ok so that means he would still have less than 10 goals! considering he's been by himself up front and has played 60% of time he should have 20 goals if our midfield is as good as some say. the fact of matter remains gila hasn't had many goal scoring opportunities . the rest of his chances are so hard to put away cuz ot's him vs 4 defenders. this is down to our midfield, we really have to question guys like gattuso and seedorf and ambro in our midfield. they can still be useful but we cant start with those 3 all the time, we neeeed more creativity/speed/youth.
Sums up our entire season in a paragraph

good post and i especially agree with the rino,seedorf and ambro in midfield. Gourcoff needs some play time and either Rino or Ambro need to be dropped and on current form it has to be Gattuso
Rino will be kept in the squad, no matter how off form he is, he is still crucial, Ambro is a different type of DMF, And the work Rino puts in when we play with just 1 defensive mid is invalubale. Ambro can't do that.
