QUOTE (dst @ Feb 17 2009, 02:11 PM)  Kolo Touré. Yep. Maybe that one. Not many of those around 25 avaible + good IMO. That's why we go for youngsters or old veterans. QUOTE Ait i've made up my mind...It was difficult but itts done...If Milan doesn't win anything this season and we still continue with the same players we have next season without bringing in our youngsters out there and defenders, i won't support milan again...I've been teased and humiliated a million times by my friends and people in general about this team...If we don't bring the necessary things needed 4 this team to succeed next year..i'm out...Milan has always been in my heart..cuz i think of them everyday n night, even in my sleep...First we need to win the game against Bremen...If we don't do what i've just posted then i'm out and i'm dead serious...I'm tired of milan pursuing old players!! Milan is just plain WICKED!!! buying beckham? common..he'll be only useful for 2 years and then wat? i've supported milan all my life but this can't go on anymore What can I say other then I've always enjoyed hearing people/my friends make fun of Milan. That only gave me a few motives more to think more positive. You have to switch does bad-vibrations into good ones. Trust me, it's the only reasonable way that also works from time to time. QUOTE alternatives to Ade would be Drogba and or and this may sound crazy but....Balotelli he is upset over the fact he is behind Zlatty and Adri-Hand-o, but in milan he would be #1 choice next to pato. Ade I don't rate really highly, Balotelli IMO is also overrated,...but Drogba is a big yes for me. The ideal type of striker Capt'n Jack wants! QUOTE is DST the funniest man/woman to walk the earth or a inhebreated juve fan? lol Most likely... (IMG: style_emoticons/default/cool.gif)

I think he's a great player, better than Mexes or Vidic to whom we have been linked today and he'd surely also cost us less as it seems he wants out. Or maybe Santacroce. He's less experienced than those guys but he has a few years on his back (also in Serie B which is a very tough league) and it'd be great if he could develop even more with us!

Santacroce has a distressing tendency to pick up a lot of cards. That's the only real negative I can think of with him. He's quite good and does show potential.
Fishdoll is stubborn in wanting Chiellini at Milan, however unrealistic that might be.

Chiellini could come, I don't think he's unsellable especially with Gigli in charge but they'd never let him go for less than 30m which is not worth it in my view.

QUOTE Ade I don't rate really highly, Balotelli IMO is also overrated,...but Drogba is a big yes for me. The ideal type of striker Capt'n Jack wants! I find Drogba works best alone as he is a presence in the box and commands attention. Unfortunately he may follow the special one to Inter where mou can finally play his 4-3-3 with a very imposing Adriano/Zlatty/Drogba forward formation. I like Adebayor for the simple reason that he is good in the and a one kick finisher, he demands tight defense which opens up pat underneath( who would be playing as our secondary striker). The only issue i have with Ade is yes, granted that wenger said he would be open to sell Ade, he would command 20Mil+ which isn't easy to take a chance with these days. I LOVE the balottelli move for many reasons: -Pippo can groom 2 players (boriello & Balotelli) while staying another year with milan, perfectly there technique and hopefully teach them how to be onside hehe -Balotelli and Boriello are very solid in the air alowing pato to stay a bit farther behind to make plays. -Competition breeds the best out of players and if we we're to sign Ade, boriello probably would see his star in milan fade a little. If him and Balotelli grind it out for every start we will see amazing performances from either - During the derbies i would find it hard to believe that anyone would play more angry and passionate the super mario lol he would hopefully wreck inter while throwing grass at Mou (IMG: style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) -And on a much lesser note, Juve has taken the title as the team with the most italian talent it would seem and adding a all-star italian youth product could make sure that the team knows where it comes from and doesn't take too much of an inter approach. - We have the potential of having both pato and boriello for a long time, a feed that most european teams would sell their souls for! I find when you look at it deeper then us hiring a whinning teen that can't find his way onto a star-studded offense, you come to realise this makes TOO MUCH SENSE........ that being said, it will never happen

Wouldn't want Balotelli anywhere near Milan. He's got a really bad attitude problem both for club and country. If we're going to sack Rome, I'd prefer a Vucinic. If we're just picking Italians, I'd pick Rossi even if he's not the power forward type we all seem to agree Milan needs.
I know myself to be biased (except for Aston Villa and a couple of other odd individual players, I don't particularly like English football) but I'm surprised that so many of you are only picking EPL players as possible transfer targets.

My bias is against anything having to do with the EPL. Not against Balotelli. (IMG: style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Balotelli is one of those guys with tremendous potential and talent. But he's getting bad advice and making bad choices. If someone relatively strict like Mourinho can't get him to behave, I don't see how he'll do much better (and could do worse) at Milan. Then there are his NT antics -- for the recent U21 internationals, Balotelli was called up. He went out partying at Hollywood (the cool nightspot in milan) til 4am. And slept through his alarm, missing the U21 team flight to Trieste. He had to drive himself there and explain himself to Casiraghi, who was not at all amused. So in short...no. Unless he himself changes, I don't think Balotelli would be a good option no matter how talented he is. One thing Milan has traditionally had is a strife-free dressing room. Don't want to see that change.

QUOTE (Tennie @ Feb 17 2009, 08:03 PM)  I don't follow the Russian league much - how is Akinfeev doing these days? Is he fully recovered from his injury? I rather like him. Russian league starts in March...and last season he was great as always...and he was gewat in Euro 2008. So solid, talanted and so young keeper. We have georgian, ucrainian,,,why we can't buy russian?))
