AC Milan - Milanfan.com _ Polls _ Poll changes and ideas

Posted by: m1ke Jul 14 2008, 12:12 PM

Hi,

In v2 we've decided to put more emphasis on a single Poll topic every week, rather than have a number of polls scattered around the forum. We felt that if there was just one Poll to vote on, not only would it get a larger number of votes (and opinions), but the results would actually mean something and it should create some interesting discussion.

Only mods have the ability to create Polls, but we're looking to the members to tell us what kind of topics you want to vote on. Feel free to drop your ideas for next week's Poll in here, or PM a mod if you want it to be a suprise.

A new Poll will be created every week, and once finished the results will be published and the thread left open for discussion.

Get voting!

Guys, please - I'm struggling to cope with the amount of poll suggestions that are pouring in! (innocent.gif)

Give me some interesting ideas as to what you think would make a decent poll. It doesn't have to be in this thread - you can PM me, a mod or drop me a line at m1ke[at]milanfan.com

Posted by: Locke Lamora Aug 5 2008, 02:25 PM

What about...what sort of player do Milan need to buy before the season starts? Keeper, defender, midfielder or forward?

Just a suggestion.

I suggest something like 'who will finish our top scorer'... (there was a thread for it but we don't exactly know how many votes each player got - so a poll wouldn't hurt)

More poll ideas would be appreciated! Please post suggestions in this thread!

Posted by: Fillipo Simone Sep 2 2008, 11:59 PM

Well, let's make a poll and decide who's gonna be Milan's most efficient goalscorer?

And while we're there, we can always ask in addition who's gonna be the capocannonieri this season?

Posted by: whoarethepatriots Sep 3 2008, 12:32 AM

Ah, i forgot to do an overall player of the season poll, when i was dishing out the polls a few months ago. Wont make much difference now though

Edit: i would consider it unprofessional if i didnt suggest a poll. How about (with regards to transfers) most overpriced player bought e.g. buying Zambro for £8

Posted by: gal_kenny Sep 3 2008, 12:35 AM

Guys i think we should make a poll of what is really and actually wrong with milan in serie A especially? Is it Ancelotti, is it our defense, is it our goal keeper? is it milan being cheap? or us still having old baggages? Or us still signing players really not needed....Really wat is wrong with milan...? guys we should ponder it..Still after playing our best football in a long time we still lose...really wats wrong with milan? i still down day to day and really think bout this..i haven't gotten an answer...

Is it too early to suggest something along the lines of 'Who will finish our top scorer?'

...Either by Jan, End of Season, Serie A &/or In all Competitions

Posted by: Fillipo Simone Nov 30 2008, 02:02 AM

Let's make a poll and see how many of us think Gourcuff will return. If not, als why...

Posted by: acid911 Nov 30 2008, 12:26 PM

Good idea, Sim. biggrin.gif

Posted by: TriniKing_CE Dec 6 2008, 08:32 PM

POLL IDEA

Given the chance, Should Milan re-sign Ronaldo (R9)?

Yes
No

[Someone please create it]


I'm interested to see which out weighs the other, given his ability to turn a game within a matter of minutes (as we all know of), also given his inability to stay fit for a lengthy period of time.

Who will finish as Milan's top scorer in Serie A this season?

Kaka
Pato
Ronaldinho


PS 1. If you think another player still has a chance, include him.
PS 2. I know it's not the best poll ever, but it's better than nothing biggrin.gif

Let's make a simple poll:

Should Milan install a new coach?

Yes, after season end.
Yes, right now.
No

Posted by: il_diavolo_mtl Feb 25 2009, 08:24 PM

Can i ask a question i think is a very good poll title?
"Who is the best keeper is Serie A so far?"
Frey?
Abbiati?
Julio ceasar?
...

Posted by: dst Feb 25 2009, 08:29 PM

I hate to admit it but Cesar has been this year's best. And he was the best last season too. And the season before that. sleep.gif

Posted by: il_diavolo_mtl Feb 25 2009, 08:32 PM

i would honesly have to go Frey- abbiati and third Ceasar only because of the defenses they play with.

Enough said. cool.gif He was no way near this performance five years back. I don't know what he's smoking now, but he's without the doubt inter's most consistent player. United would have slotted in at least 2 or 3 had it been not for Cesar.

no no you guys are confused. Okay here i will re do it so you guys can better understand:

1)Sack him at the end of the season
2) Let him finish his contract
3) Renew his contract for 1 more year
4) Renew his contract for 2 years
5) renew his contract for 3 years


Sometimes i hate being on an international forum where english is a second language for many.

Posted by: Jack Sparrow Feb 26 2009, 04:57 PM

I like that one. It also ties in with Filippo's earlier poll suggestion. Put it up please. 10ster? Max? Mishie?

After that we can have a new poll...

Dst is a...

1. Man
2. Woman
3. Either/Or
4. God does not play dice with the world but occasionally he creates a sovereign entity similar to Panos Thelis.

Not read this whole thread, but I'd like to see a poll summing up how this forum feels about Kaka's departure.

Was he forced out by the powers that be, was he a lying judas who took the chance to escape Milan, or was it a business condition which suited him and the club?

Posted by: dst Aug 14 2009, 05:55 AM

I think it's pretty clear, all the players that have talked about it said that the club had to sell him for financial reasons.

I may be wrong - but didn't Miz & Tennie say the opposite? [...forgive me if I am wrong]

Well it's a fact that Kaka was sold for financial reasons, everyone from the club (apart from Silvio who has obvious reasons to lie about it) has admitted so... I'm not sure about Miz's view but Tennie also thinks he's a money whore... I can't see where that is based on but everyone's free to think the way he/she wants...

What league has greatly improved this year. I would honestly have to go Serie A because it is reshaping and i see us Going further in Euro competitions (uefa-CL and so on). One can also make an argument for the ELP, Bundesliga(not really though) and obviously la liga.

We may disagree on the captaincy issue, but we're dead on the nail here.

QUOTE

It did. What gets me about the whole thing is the fact he, like so many before him at Milan and other clubs, swore allegiance to us beyond words. He wanted to be the captain, an idol, and finish his career here.

The Man City bid comes in and we accept, and leave it up to Kaka, who rejects because he wants to stay with us.

Then Real Madrid come in, offer less, we still accept, and he goes. He leaves us with the nice quote that he only wished the deal had gone through sooner.

If Kaka had been self sacrificial he'd have left in January to give Milan the money. No, he wanted to leave for Madrid, and was waiting for them to offer.

In a way, Kaka cost us 50M through selfishness.

For me, personally, his sale was a tragady. The details don't concern me - I know he was held in high regard at Milan so his sale would not have happened unless it was necessary.

He's the kind of player that simply cannot be replaced. I'd like to think that he was true to his word, and wanted to remain but left in order to help us balance the books.

Posted by: dst Aug 18 2009, 04:26 PM

So you're saying if Random FC from a 5x5 tournament in the North Pole had offered half a million euros he should have gone to them so that we get the biggest offer? This is ridiculous. Of course he did not want to go to City, why should he?

I believe he would have never left Milan if we did not want to sell him and you believe otherwise so there's no point going on with this as it will get us nowhere.

The way I see it, a guy that takes time to talk about his former club in his presentational speech is way too tied to it to have gone willingly.

While Kaka' did want a good deal for the club, he didn't want to be forced somewhere that he didn't want to go. I believe had Chelsea came in for him, he would have gone. But where City will be in a few years is still up in the air, nobody knows how quickly they will succeed, why throw your career away for the good of a club? I also think more of the blame should go to the management, they were more than happy to seemingy force him out the club to make a quick few $$$.

Im with Mike. With the level of money we seem willing to invest, he is irreplacable. The few players in the World that are as good as him are simply not in our price range.

1: Club (Berlu and Galliani) forced him out.
2: Lying Judas who never intended to stay
3: A good business deal for all concerned

Not read the whole thread so apologies if I've missed folk saying these before...

Best 'lesser' league to scout for new talent:

1: France
2: Belgium
3: Brazil
4: Portugal
5: Netherlands
6: English Championship
7: Serie B

And:

What is your priority this coming season?

1: Scudetto title
2: CL/Europe title
3: Respectable displays in both to regain credibility.

Posted by: han2503 Aug 21 2009, 06:54 PM

Next poll should be Ambro vs Rino.

Seeing as its a very commonly discussed topic, mostly between me and kurt, but everyone has their oppinion on the subject it should be made into a poll so we can see where the board members stand on this

what'll be our worst defeat

Posted by: TriniKing_CE Aug 31 2009, 02:59 PM

We've waited long enough. Time to know the truth how many people on here want Silvio gone?

Just make a poll along these lines!

Should he go / stay? Would he invest in the team again? Does he care about the team still?

Time to see some statistics! Make a Poll.


I for one am now willing to see us part ways if Silvio doesn't shape up!

Enough is enough - He has been beating around the bush way too long! He is one of the world's richest & most powerful and yet still refuses to help where out where necessary!

We are fine as we are - Are you fcvking kidding me Silvio??!

He has been saying this for years now, but yet this team has lacked consistency and pride for years now.

Not to mention challenging for Serie A! - When last were we really able to do that?! But yet we are fine as we are?!

Fin for what?! - Mid Table, Early CL Eliminations (or no CL at all), Laughing stock of Europe & Italy?

He needs to shape up or ship out (sell) - Simple as that!

Like someone rightly said in another thread - He needs to realize that he is not the only milan fan just because he owns the club! The fans are the ones who bring in part of the revenue to the club and share the passion of the club!

I made a post in the Pato thread, wouldn't mind a poll about it:

For the sake of his career, if Milan don't improve soon, would you let Pato go?

Yes
No

Under the premise that Pato's career is struggling to bloom, and another club in a better state might be a superior environment for him.

hmm i think we are more biased towards milan then any of it's players, it's the reason we didn't lose that many posters to Real Madrid boards...

Posted by: Bluesummers Oct 9 2009, 04:48 PM

I would let him go. Pato has been here only 2 years, so its not that big of a loss. But I would like to keep him if we had the chance, but if he has to go then I would not go ape sh*t like when we lost Kaka.


I prefer a healthy milan to a healthy pato.

Funny, I wasn't that bothered when we lost Kaka because I'd already felt his best years were behind him, a belief being justified by his average start at the Bernabau.

I was, however, appalled at the notion of losing Pato.

Now, however, I'm less sure.

Bidum t'sh.

Put it this way though, imagine we get 50M for a 20 year old in January, and a new manager - I'd much rather use that money to rebuild the squad from the ground up than keeping him and not having any money for a new manager to use.

And let's face it, after he brought in Huntelaar, I don't exactly trust Leo with millions.

What does that mean? Bid him goodbye?


I don't think Leo is to be 'blamed' (too early to say) for KJH. In his defence similar to Carlo, he wanted something else and was forced to compromise for the sake of the budget.

He wanted Fabiano and the board got him KJH who was on a special 40% Milan only discount.

Even if I buy this theory, it doesn't excuse the appalling nature of our current plight. Leo is a symptom of it, if not the cause.

leo publicly declared that huntelaar was a good striker but he wanted fabiano, it was the management's decision.
i'm not sure but its rumoured milan only paid 4m with 11m to come in installments

Almost everyone was fantastic in a way. Pirlo stunned Madrid players with his strike - if it hadn't been for him we probably would have lost. Seedorf and Ambro created well, Pato finished well. Nesta defended well - so did everyone in defense in fact. so... no MotM. we won as a team and that's how it should be most of the time (not always).

Man of the match for me was Zambrotta. The moment he fouled Benzema and no penalty was give, I knew the stars were shining on Milan that night. Since Zambrotta assured me of victory, I give him the prize.

Posted by: Bluesummers Nov 12 2009, 09:16 PM

Should the transfer thread be left to only offical news coming from an ac Milan representive or should it remain the same?

EDIT: @ Blue

Official news coming from acmilan? that happens about a couple of times each year so obviously no.

I personally think any kind of news can/should be posted in the transfers thread, but citing the source to each and every one of them must not be forgotten. so people know whether or not to take them seriously.

It should never be left for official news, that's why we have the news section...

How about what can be posted or not. I know there was an issue regarding twitter posts etc. So we'll see what people want to see in that thread, do they want the twitter stuff or just the usual rumours that are from TMW/Goal/etc?

Which youth player will receive the most playing time this season?


Alexandre Merkel (MID)

Mitja Novinic (MID)

Simone Verdi (FW)

Rodney Strasser (MID)

Giacomo Beretta (FW)

Michelangelo Albertazzi (DEF)

Dominic Adiyiah (FW)

Nmadi Oudamadi (FW)

Posted by: CHU-LIP Aug 7 2010, 12:54 PM

Oduamadi because he is a right winger, and we're lacking that the most in our squad. Verdi is younger so he would be more in Primavera, so that's why I guess Odu will play more. It's between Merkel and Odu I believe, and Strasser. Why didn't you open a poll in the poll forum? smile.gif

Not that big a deal, but I was wondering with Ibra, Pirlo, Kaka, Seedorf, etc. all gone (and assuming Kaka won't come back) will it FINALLY be Pato's turn to become our primary penalty taker or will someone else take them.

So... will someone open a poll like this?

Who should be the first penalty-taker?

Pato
Robinho
Cassano
Kevin-Prince Boateng




Posted by: X-Offender Aug 15 2012, 05:06 PM

Pato.

Truth be told, Pato needs to practice taking penalties, but of our current crop of players, I'd choose Pato or Cassano.

Not done this in ages. I'd like the following poll:

'In theory, with the player at his best (ignoring current form and/or injuries) who is our best player?'

1: Kevin-Prince Boateng
2: Riccardo Montolivo
3: Alexandre Pato
4: Stephan El-Sharaaway
5: Bojan Krkic
(any other the poll poster thinks is a valid addition to this - I do like De Jong, Mexes and Constant but I don't think they quite fit the criteria)

I've been thinking to make some new summer polls and I need help/suggestions.

The categories would be (all for the 2014/15):

Serie A best goalkeeper

(Buffon, Lopez, Perin, Neto)
Serie A best defender
(Chiellini, Bonucci, De Vrij, Glik, Darmian, Castan, Peres)
Serie A best midfielder
(Anderson, Pogba, Vidal, Candreva, Pirlo, Nainggolan, Kovačić)
Serie A best attacker
(Totti, Toni, Tevez, Icardi, Morata, Higuain, Dybala, Berardi)
Serie A best coach
(Allegri, Pioli, Garcia, Benitez, Mihajlović, Montella)
----------------------------
AC Milan best/worst player
AC Milan best/worst signing
AC Milan biggest disappointment

Now, send me you suggestions for all categories and I'll make the polls happen.

Also, if anyone here has a new idea for a thread, I'd be glad to help.

Berardi had a stunning season. Amazed he hasn't been snapped up by a heavyweight. Personally would give it to Tevez. But no Menez? Hate or loathe him, he deserves in the list.
