He's a box striker in essence. We've already got Pippo.
There are more exciting Dutch players (Drenthe, who does play LB at Madrid! The wingers Babel and Snejder).

QUOTE (Tennie @ Sep 24 2007, 11:51 PM) Pippo will be 35 next season... it will probably be his last one at Milan... Plus, Gila is a big questionmark, even if he's on form, you cannot depend on him! So I say we do need another in-box striker to and as soon as possible too so that he will settle well in the team!

That surprises me a little. I think Huntelaar is good, I just don't think he's what Milan need. Bring us more Italian strikers! [/broken record mode] In recent years italian strikers have rarely succeded in Milan (except the amazing Pippo) Others like Gila, Bobbo have failed. (although that doesn't mean that all the others will fail, but it's just a statistic) I'd reather go for a foreign striker, and Huntelar can be the one! Italians can keep defensive part though!

That what you said is in fact very true. Pippo is the only italian striker who suceeded in Milan for the last 6 or 7 years. Only Marco Simone (in his comeback season) Gianni Comandini and Maurizio Ganz were even mildly successfull. Saudati, Boriello, Gilardino and Vieri (we should have given him more time!) failed. But that should not discourage us,... The bigger problem is that right now there is not any extra-class italian striker avaible. A 29 year old Di Natale is right now in form, but his transfer would be questionable. Many of us here, me included, said Iquinta is crap. But I saw him play for Juve and I must say he is valuable and dangerous. Maybe we should have gone for him. Toni is unavaible, same with Camoranesi. That leaves us to Fabio Quagiarella and Tommaso Rocchi. I'm waiting for a new talent to arrive and I should not take long,..Still, Italian strikers in general do start playing good after their 25-th year, so...What about Nicola Pozzi? Is he any good at Empoli?

I like Rossi. I also like Pazzini though Fiorentina isn't likely to let him (or Montolivo who I also like) go.
There's Graziano Pelle who's playing at...Alkmaar, is it? Anyone know how he's getting along?
Milan own Pozzi but in honesty in the Empoli games I've seen so far this season, he hasn't impressed.
