well...we always have january (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

through all this though, i think all this talk about how terrible our forwards are going to be this year is a smack in the face to gilardinho and pippo...they are 2 great strikers and i think gilardinho is going to step up and take on the lead role this year. pippo has already shown great form again and we can always move kaka up as a striker as well.

Iaquinta can suck my d!ck.

I think he'd be bad at that too! (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

Quality comment Warchant. But believe me we know that. That's the only reason everyone on this forum is still holding on to our sanity (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

We had the same idea last january when were getting some defensive reinforcements. Of course our defense came through.

Hopefully it will be the same with our strikers now.

No, if we won't get Ronaldo then we will sign Ricardo Oliveira. And there's still hope for Torres too, not to forget Tevez. We'll just have to wait and see.

There hasn't been any real concrete indication that we'll get Ricardo or any of them.

Torres was linked for a move to Milan last january. We got all excited and it didn't come through.

At this point, I say hell with it. If we sign somebody, then we sign somebody.

We'll still be strong on the pitch. Our strikers will do well.

Maybe we could try Kaka in more of a forward role.

We really will just have to wait it out and take what happens in a positive light.

There still is a chance Ronaldo will want to come.

What is Real thinking, like we're going give them 24 y/o Kaka and all this money for a 30 year old, injury prone Ronaldo.

Theres more to Ronaldo than just football. Alot of it has to do with the fame that he draws to a club-- the business side of things.

I think this is why Don Silvio wants him so bad.

Loss of Scheva = loss prestige in the football world.

Silvio wants Ronaldo as a possible replacement and also because he aggressively expanding Milan's channel, and products. Ronaldo could be the new poster boy.

Milan have built their legacy on great strikers in the game. Van Basten and Scheva.
