Rules would have to change imo - if Brocchi ever becomes next in line for captaincy!
Hopefully he will LEAVE sooner than later!

Pecking order should be

Paolo (ofcourse (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) )
Ambro
Rino
Pirlo
Nesta
Kaka
And if push comes to shove like in the friendly the band should have been given to Seedorf not Brocchi

Completely agree with your list. Too bad Nesta and Pirlo never will be considered. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Nesta in particular. He was more than great as Lazio captain. In fact, I'd put him behind Paolo when it comes to overall experience and value. He is our only player who can walk into any world side, after Kaka.

According to an article on acmilan.com some weeks ago (it's in the Maldini thread), the order is thus:

Paolo Maldini: The 2008-09 season is the 25th in Milan's first team
Massimo Ambrosini: 2008-09, 13th season with Milan
Rino Gattuso: 2008-09, 10th season with Milan
Kakha Kaladze: 2008-09, 9th season with Milan
Christian Abbiati: 2008-09, 8th season with Milan
Nelson Dida: 2008-09, 8th season with Milan
Filippo Inzaghi: 2008-09, 8th season with Milan
Andrea Pirlo: 2008-09, 8th season with Milan
Cristian Brocchi: 2008-09, 7th season with Milan
Sandro Nesta: 2008-09, 7th season with Milan
Clarence Seedorf: 2008-09, 7th season with Milan
Ricardo Kakà : 2008-09, 6th season with Milan

I agree that Nesta probably wouldn't take the armband even if he was eligible (and Milan does seem to operate on the seniority principle, just like the Azzurri do). He's still - and will always be - a symbol of Lazio.

Symbol of Lazio, I know. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) I understand Milan doesn't work this way, but he'd look great in the captains armband. In fact, he's one of our very few star players - players who everyone on the planet knows about: Paolo, Nesta, Inzaghi and Kaka and Seedorf. Even my friends from England to Namibia (and other places) know of Nesta as the top defender currently at his peak.

Outside the world of AC Milan guys like Ambrosini, Gattuso, Kaladze, Abbiati (huh?), to an extent Pirlo and Brocchi can't show a light to Nesta. The guy's just behind Paolo in being the best CB in the world (along with Cannavaro). WORLD. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) But then again, it's the inside that counts. Unfortunately. It's another matter entirely that he still has a Lazio heart. In a perfect world I'd have picked Paolo, Nesta, and then Kaka, Pirlo in that order, judging players by their experience as well as stature in world football.

It's a good thing Brocchi isn't in his 17th year at Milan, or I'd most certainly have fallen sick. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/puke.gif)

I like it how they claim Abbiati is loyal as it's his 8th season.. then also consider him a new signing.

We cant sell Kaka now matter how the big the price as there will be no one good enough (tactically at least and also talent wise) who can slot in easily

I don't think this is the pecking order for captaincy. it's just showing how many season they've had with Milan. I think there should more important factors to be considered.
