I hope they don't forget we need a top quality striker... as soon as we sign that world class striker, I won't give a damn about Borriello.

[CrazyMilanFan]

stikers wil be sheva and borrillio

[Fillipo Simone]

Nah, Borriello is just an' Gilardino replacement. And remember how Gila was dangerous and needed. We'll get another, a real one.

[nuh]

i believe that next year our formation will like this :
kalac
zambrota-nesta-maldini-jan
pirlo
fl/gat-r10/seedorf
kaka
eto-pato
maybe borriello

If this is true this is one of Galliani's most stupid of decisions

We've gone from bad to worse. If we wanted to replace Gila we should have gotten a player that will actually be an upgrade on him, if Boriello is really that guy then we might as well just kept Gila (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

I don't belive in a PAT-ETO combo..

I don't belive in a PAT-ETO combo..

why ?

[Fillipo Simone]

why ?

Well, that wouldn't work. Eto'o needs someone who can deliver and mostly play aside near the flanks. That's not what Pato is for. Eto'o needs space, just the same with Pato. I'm not sure it would work. Anyway, I fear Eto'os best days are over.

A Pato-Drogba duo would be much more compatible IMO,.. (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/cool.gif)

Borriello says that he'll not come to Milan to worm the bench, and honestly he's right!

Borriello : I'm no reserve

There's a rumour about Milan buying Borri and then exchange/sell him to la Roma and get Mancini though ...

His attitude is good IMO. He played the season of his life and won a ticket to Austria & Switzerland... that gives him the right to have his 5 minutes of glory. If he remains determinated and proves his determination with results/goals on the pitch, he could become a starter.

Now is the time to decide - Borriello's price and value are probably now higher the ever (in future) and we could use him as a chip for some trade or earn money on him. It's up to our board..

I also believe a Pato-Drogba combo would be better than one with Eto'o. In any case, I prefer Drogba over Eto'o based on current form and how they can suit our purpose.

or he could add to the UEFA quota of having X number of players from your primavera in your roster (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)


@han .. Who said Borriello would replace Gila ?! It's waaaay too early to speculate on such issues, for one, we don't know which world class striker will come in, in the first place. And for that to happen, Gila would have to sign with Fiorentina first.

Galliani said that if Gila leaves TWO strikers will come in. That means if Boriello is brought in then he could be 1 of the 2 that were promised.

And imo, if we take Boriello back it would be taking a step back in terms of quality. We all saw how Gila did at Parma, now compare that to Borriello at Genoa, the only difference is that we already know that he will ammount to nothing at Milan sincee he has already been given a chance at Milan on more then one occasion.

And also spending money on a player when you know that he's never done anything good for Milan and also Milan themselves had pretty much given to Genoa for practically nothing just to get rid of him would be a waste of money that could be used in other areas or even to smooth out the deal with Barca for Zambro and R10

Well yes, Gila-Parma could be used as an example and I fear for such a situation with Borriello too .. But UEFA regulations imply that we need to bring in players from the primavera and Borriello is the best of them atm. Hence, I don't see this as a bad deal, rather the best considering the circumstances.

About the money issue .. I'd rather leave it to the experts at Via Turati .. They have been cutting deals for years now, they know exactly what they are doing (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

And on the strikers, I believe one will come .. And that one would be Shevchenko, if not then another world class striker. Plus Ronaldinho. And that would be it, of course if I wanted to unlock my wet dreams, I would say Drogba, Etoo, Bin Zema, Henry, etc .. But I am not about to go there.


p.s. It is too early han, Galliani said two strikers, yes. And they could very well be Borriello plus another world class striker. Then again, Borriello hasn't arrived yet, not has Gilardino left, so it is all up in the air. Let's just keep it on ice till the window opens (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

re: Borriello, there's always option #3 (which has been speculated today): namely, that Milan buy him back and then sell him on to another club. Could see that happening too, depending.
