why this happened ? why galliani do this ? it was very clear that someone like oliviera with his great abilities need a bit motive and after arriving ronaldo will be more excited and motivated , so why we do this ?

people...these are all just rumors

no one knows, officially, what is being discussed between the teams

don't jump to conclusions before we know all the details

Milan agree Ronaldo fee Tuesday 30 January, 2007

Ronaldo will sign for Milan this evening after the Italian club reportedly agreed to pay £5.3m to Real Madrid.

The two clubs finally reached an agreement this afternoon and the Brazilian will put pen to paper before flying out to Milan at 18.00 hours local time.

The former Inter player, who left Italy for Real in 2002, has already passed his medical and is expected to commit himself to the Rossoneri for the next 18 months.

“I know that Ronaldo is now a Milan player,” Real Madrid boss Fabio Capello is quoted as saying this afternoon. “I wish him luck.”

However, talks for Ronaldo took a twist earlier today as Real Madrid also asked Milan for the loan of Ricardo Oliveira.

It is understood that the Italian side have agreed to the proposal even if they would have to find a replacement for the flop before the window closes tomorrow.

Palermo’s Andrea Caracciolo seems in pole position after his agent admitted that he is set to meet with Milan’s sporting director Ariedo Braida.

“I am always very cautious until things are finalised,” said agent Andrea D’Amico to Radio Radio.

“I have been speaking with Milan for a while, because I believe Caracciolo has the characteristics needed to play for an important club.

“There is a chance that he might move to Milan, but nothing is certain. I am waiting for Braida to return to Italy and we will meet.

“Caracciolo is a player who has great potential. He might not have many opportunities to play at Milan, but you must believe in his qualities,” concluded D’Amico.

The striker himself has admitted that he would like to join the San Siro club, although he is not aware of what seems to be going on.

“I would be happy to play for the Rossoneri, but I don’t know anything about this issue,” he stated.

Meanwhile, Palermo have signed Polish striker Radoslaw Matusiak who is expected to pen a three-and-a-half year contract.

The transfer was confirmed by the player’s current outfit Belchatow, who posted a note on their website stating that the 25-year-old, who has scored nine goals this season, will join the Rosanero for £1.4m.

They f @@@@@@ Milan with this type of shopping

This is so so so so so F*CKED UP. OMFG, what the hell are we doing. We may as well just give real kaka', this is the absolute shambles. Oli got given 8 bloody starts in serie a, what kind of opportunity is that.

Who has seen this guy caracciolo play?

Has he got any potential..

WTF, Carafuckin'iolo???????

If this b/s is true then first I hope we sold him at least at 15M€, second Carashit is a Toni striker type which means we're going to play with the x-mass tree in CL, third we're going for R10 in the summer for sure!

All in all I think we're going to be kicked out from the CL, lets just hope we'll be there next year

with Caracciccccicccciii ANd Aubemamamamamamamamama..................................................... Galliani can certainly do this

Caracciolo is pitiful, he's nowhere Milan quality. I'm clearly disappointed, these guys don't know how to make deals anymore. First Foggia, now Oli. I'm still waiting for the official announcement for the Oliveira move, but...

Poor oli has been made the escape goat.

still nothing official but look at this :


ROSSONERI SQUAD FOR ROMA-MILAN
30/01/2007
KEEPERS: Dida, Fiori, Storari; DEFENDERS: Bonera, Cafu, Costacurta, Grimi, Jankulovski, Maldini, Oddo, Simic; MIDFIELDERS: Ambrosini, Gattuso, Gourcuff, Kakà, Pirlo, Seedorf; STRIKERS: W. Aubameyang, Gilardino, Inzaghi.

Yep, Oli's gone, at least until June. I'm so depressed at the moment...

I must say I'll be REALLY dissapointed if Oliveira leaves now.

Caracciolo? For god sake...

Come on guys Caracciolo is our man

Caracciolo is a box striker, apart from being a total waste of money. If we were to sign someone quickly, then why not Di Natale or Suazo you baldy moron?

Well thats it for oli.

I mean your not going to loan him out and then bring him back.

At least out attack looks threatening for roma and our last two games of the champions league for the season.

If the former phenomenon is a flop, we'll be absolutely coasting.

it was a new year gift !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Are you kidding they're too young

EDTI : Carashitolo is young too

Anyone else think its abit over the top the whole 'RONALDO' in gold on the first page of the milan site.

I could understand if it was dinho we signed but this is almost tragic.

You said it, it's tragic. They have totally lost it.

Oh my God... I can't breathe... This reminds of what happened to me when Sheva left... I hate this... I NEED TO F@CKING BREAK SOMETHING!!!

Whoo-Hoo!

Hmm so oli couldn't fill the boots of sheva.. but can ronaldo fill the boots of oli..

Can he even fill his own shoes? That's the main question.

I think something similar to this would be out best possible team for celtic.

I think it's gone be something like that!

It's not about filling Oliveira's boots... It's about what a great player Oli was and how they never believed in him... He could have scored many goals with us if JUST the club could show him the same confidence they showed to Gila...

Couldn't agree more K-Max.

No faith, no opportunity, 8 starts.

i dont get why where puutting him out on loan. normmally you to that when you have a surplus of players in a certain position. this is a disgrace, all this talk about going for CL, and all we have is pippo, gila which is complete **** and who knows at the rate we sign players it could take 12 months to sign another another striker to play in CL.

Is there anyone good that we can realistically sign before the deadline?

Seems liverpool were able to get fifa to bend the rules and get a loan deal on masherano.

Just thought I'd mention it since thats a push to sign for the future in terms of age and talent. Unfortunately we seem to only sign the overaged and formerly talented.

He was talented for sure, but may he hadn't the right attitude, I dont know but I'm our management would never gave up on him just like that if he showed the same desire as Gila did, remember when Gila wasn't scoring, he kept runnig everywhere and never gave up, now take a look back to Oli's Match against la Roma, he started very well (his best start with us so far) and then just vanished he was just waiting for the ball and didn't work enough to get the ball back, and honestly no one knows what was going at the training, so may be that explains why we gave him on loan!

I refuse to believe that Oli is gone until i see Ronaldo's name instead of his here: h**p://www.acmilan.com/LM_Team_Roster.aspx

i heard in rai tg sport that oliviera is not still definite ,,,,,

On goal.com, it said it was part of the deal. And also if we qualify for the champions league next season we have to pay real a further 0.5M.

I think we were all for the ronaldo deal if it had no impact on our squad and minimal financial cost. Seems we've been exploited, surprise surprise.

This is one of the worst decisions our management could make. With Pippo still out of form and Gila struggling recently a third option in the CL would have been good. I have absolutely no respect for this decision!

This has turned into a nightmare!! f@cking Caracciolo???????!!!!

Why give Oli to Rea????l Just why????? it baffles me how stupid they could get.

They say our main objective is CL?? We'll be lucky to get past Celtic with Gila and Pippo playing together upfront.

This is just so f@cking rediculous!! Caracciolo!!! What the hell???!!!!

Well at least we know we'll be getting a lot of fan boys from china. The official site's server has gone down

At this point we have nothing to lose. Ronaldo is a player that will score goals. We paid nothing for him and he still is deadly. Id say a El Gordo Ronaldo is better than Gilardino anyday. Hopefully our next acquisition is Pato, then Id say we are starting to address our weaknesses up top. And of course Grimi and Oddo give us some width.


Even on Madrid they called him El Gordo and all that but he scored in virtually every game until he got injured last season. Even in the face of a bunch of ungrateful, hateful Spaniards he manages to get some points on the board. Milan is a totally different environment than Inter and Madrid. Hopefully well pull a couple more great years out him.

Ronaldo = 7,5M + Oli's loan.

Gosh... great management if confirmed.

That's not the point, we have virtually no one that could help us out in the CL. This transfer was ridiculous to say the least



I think our management just reached a new high of stupidity

Oh yeah, I totally forgot about him, since R9 has a europeen passport and we gave Oli on loan we still have a non-euro place available, so may be we can get him right now

Come on....he has been good for a few matches, and then he came back to his old Milan self...

Ha only played 2 games since the winter break

No way will this happen.

They will go the cheap root and get f@cking Caracciolo. I will bet my car on this.

Our attacking line will be R9 Gila Pippo Caracciolo by tomorrow.

You wait and see

Gila got that nasty nock against Lazio. It will take a while before he get's back to normal
