Highlights:
* Arsenal are asking 45 million (euros, I think) for Adebayor. Galliani stated that this is too high and that Italian clubs can't compete financially when the big Spanish and English clubs get involved in the bidding.
* He sort of contradicts himself in the next statement, contending that Ronaldinho remains a very real possibility.
*
Milan is loaning Abate to Torino (albeit with a very high buy-out clause because according to Galliani, Milan dont' want to lose Abate).Â

Â

Â
* Sporting have made an offer for Grimi that Milan don't think adequate. Apparently there are offers for him from England.
* Transfer negotiations are underway for Digao, Storari, and Simic.
* Kaka should be ready to play by the time Serie A resumes
* With regard to Ronaldo, Galliani says that he needs to lose weight and train. He adds that to play for a club like Milan, one must be prepared to make sacrifices.
OH no **** *** keep him and give him a chance...... what does he wants for grimi 10 million while milan is not paying 25-30 for R10............atleast R10 is a possibilty but unfortunatly what the real possiblilties are actully never the real possiblity

Okay, I think Sportitalia is...on crack or something. At least I hope they are. They're now saying that Milan and Roma both are looking at Arsenal's Niklas Bendtner.
(No offense, Locke, but Bendtner is...not someone I'd pick).

Bendtner really isn't a good player in my opinion. If he didn't have the likes of Hleb and Fabregas spoon feeding him chances every week, he'd wouldn't score!

Why is AC Milan loaning Abate out and not loaning the primevera players..Abate is better than them..AC Milan is foolish for loaning him
Tennie
Jul 1 2008, 10:05 PM
Not necessarily. They may be loaning him to Toro so he'll get serious playing time (ie, he'll start every game) and mature a tad bit more as a player. At least that's what I'm hoping.
As for the primavera players, well, the only two it seems that'll be officially promoted to the first team next year are Paloschi and Darmian. Not a lot of folks have seen Darmian, but he's looked good in the couple of games I've seen. Paloschi...well, the fish doll is a big fan of Paloschi.
Also playing in the primavera team (which has its own championship that's regulated by the lega calcio just like serie a and serie

is Michelangelo Albertazzi, who's captain of the Italy U17s and has been called up to the Italy U19s.

Fincenzo Morabito: Who said Adebayor doesn't want Milan ?!
MR. Fincenzo Morabito Adebayor's agent in Italy spoke to the program 'Unico Grande Amore' which broadcasts on 'Teleradiostereo' and the future of his client.
Mr. Morabito talked about Emanuel Adebayor whos name was tied with Milan over the past couple of months, before certain statements came out about Adebayor preferring Barcalona over Milan because the latter didn't qualify for the Champions League, Morabito said: "It is unbelievable! Unbelievable how much false and fabricated statements that we have to read everyday! How could Adebayor every say that he wouldn't prefer Milan because they don't play in the Champions League ? That is unbelievable, Adebayor takes Milan as a prime club and as the best solution without even thinking twice about which tournament that team plays in next season, and we do not joke about this!"
He continues: "Transfers don't happen based on the player's desire, but it depends on what Arsenal and Arsene decide on. There is also interest from Barcalona, but I am very sure that Adebayor would be even happier if his move was to Milan. Showing interest into what is published in England is stupid, and it is a situation which doesn't gain our respect because it comes from on top of us."

IMO we need a classic striker as top priority, then a AM to fresh up things with Kaka and Seedorf. In other words both.
If we sign Ronaldinho we still need a striker. He doesn't have to be WC, but a decent one. Ade? Oh,..let's pass this for M's sake.

Well it's easy to say that we would need both, because it as a fact that we need both players. But we're only going to get one, and we're already struggling in that department so expecting both players is a bit too much since we all know it's not going to happen
We have Pippo and Boriello as in box strikers, and yes Pippo is unreliable in terms of injury and sometimes even form and we don't know what Boriello will be able to do and we do have Paloschi to call upon if we're really in deep **** (tennie remove this later for me pls

), who has shown that he is able to score in tight situations. But we only have Pato as a supporting striker, Kaka and Seedorf the only attacking mids and to me Seedorf is not a pure attacking mid. R10 will give us far better options in terms of positions he could play in.
If we're going on what should really happen then yes, preferably both would be ideal but we all know that's not going to happen

Little risk in getting him? So 35M british pounds is little risk?? There's a good chance of him flopping, he's only ever had one good season with Arsenal and the ammount of sppon fed chances he gets every week for Arsenal are something that won't be happening at Milan. Imo he's not worth it, maybe if he had at least 2-3 consistant seasons for Arsenal than I would say that he is worth his price tag, but the ammount of money Arsenal are asking for him for just one good season is ridiculous

I agree with han on Adebayor, £35m is a whole lot of money. I know prices have inflated alot recently, but when you consider how much Sheva went for on the back of 7 great seasons with Milan.. is Adebayor worth more than that on the basis of one season? It's a huge risk, not just because he could flop, but if we spend that much on Adebayor, that would be our whole summer budget gone in my opinion, which would mean no more other signings.

I think one way to compare Adebayor is with Gila. Gila proved at a very young age that he could score goals for fun, he looked like a great purchase for us. But Gila had even more advantages than Adebayor - he needed no time to adjust as he already played in Serie A, and he had more than just one good season - and look how Gila turned out.. and we're going to pay twice the price of Gila to bring in Adebayor? It doesn't make sense from a risk point of view.

Agreed. There are better strikers out there and we could manage to get them less then that. Eto'o would go for about the same price and he would be a much better purchase.
As for our entire transfer budget, personally I believe that no matter how much we spend on the attacker that comes in, whether it £35m or £5m we still won't get anyone else.

Exactly, 1 good year is not good enough to bas that ridiculous price on. Sheva's 30m were imo more then justified, he left here as the premier marksman in all of Europe, now what happens to him after he left doesn't matter, sice Chelsea were buying a great player. It's justified, Adebayor's price tag is not.

Pato didn't cost as much, and he has that something special that you could already see, Adebayor doesn't have that, there are countless other players like him out there who manage to score impressive ammounts of goals that doesn't mean they are special.
And he is sort of like Gila, except Gila had 2 great seasons behind him while Adebayor has only had one. We're not talking in terms of characteristics as players but rather how they have performed and they have a similar pattern.
And frankly I can't see how anyone would want this guy, especially after all the cr@p he's been talking about, if I was an Arsenal fan I wouldn't even want him. "If you want me to play like Henry then pay me like Henry"

He was more clinical then Adebayor there. Plus Adebayor misses about 3/4 of the chances he gets at Arsenal, something you can't do at Milan because we don't create as much chances and Serie A is a much harder league to play in, in terms of space being allowed to attackers to move in, which is something that is completely opposite of the premiership

So suddenly Adebayor became a star or someone who's finishing is above the normal/usuall? What's happening? I didn't like Gilardino from day 1 but, hell he's still better then Adebayor. Yeah, he's big, and maybe he has pace...but I don't know why we stuck on that guy so badly. Maybe cause there's no competition? If we target Drogba or Eto'o we have Inter, Chelsea and others to compete.
But I really can't see what's all about Adebayor. We're making up things to hype him or make him look better. Is he fast? Yes, he is. So is Suazo, Klasnic and some other players. Is he tall? Yes, just like Kanu, Budan or Koller. But all in all...no! And from my experience does kind of tall-physical strikers don't play many top-seasons. Like Kanu or Bierhoff.
The one thing he has is that he still is young? Do we need youth in that department? Actually, considering everything, Pato-Paloschi in particular, my answer is NO!

Again, Pato has that something special that Adebayor will never have. And age doesn;t matter into the equation. It's about the money we'll spend and the quality we'll get in return. And for that ammount of money the quality is seriously lacking.
In every league there are players who are able to score a huge ammount of goals but that doesn't make them WC because the minute it gets tough they faulter, that's the sort of player Adebayor is and you can find players like that for a less amount of money
Again, he's like Gila when you compare their track records not their characteristics as players.
And you might not take to offence by those type of comments but for a Milan player they are unacceptable.

Benzema would be a player that would be more useful for us. He remids me of a young Sheva.
If we are going to go for anyone that could score us goals I would even chose Crespo before Adebayor. I know he's over 30 and all that, but in terms of getting a sure performer for next season that will gaurantee us goals Crespo is more then capable of doing the job, plus he won't even come for 1/3 of the price and has more then enough experiance in Italy and we all know he can perform for Milan since he's already done that
We all know that one player will be coming in, and it has come down to Adebayor and R10. And if I were the one to choose I would go for R10 hands down.

They are either currently the worlds best, or they will be.
If anyone thinks that Adebayor wastes chances...let me assure you that his goal in the San Siro for Arsenal will NOT be the last goal he scores against Milan in the Champions League for the rest of his career..unless we get him and he scores for us. The man is a defenders nightmare..and sure he may seem like he wastes a lot of chances, but the truth is by virtue of his physical prowess and speed, he creates far more chances to score than most strikers do. His size, speed, and power is unmatched across the board as far as strikers go, and with maturity hell hone his finishing skills and score even more than he did last season. Comparing him with GIla? Thats a joke! Gila will NEVER create the chances that Adebayor does. Ade powers through and takes on defenders, Gila can't even dribble, he just takes two touches and dives!
There's always something we can say: Pato's too young, Ade's too wasteful, Drogba's too soft, Eto'o's just annoying..but come on, they would all be more than welcome, cuz their talent stands out amongst everyone else in the world..that's why they're linked with Milan

right they are proven...but how is Ade not? He's scored 30 goals for a top flight team in the EPL. Drogba never ever did that until two seasons ago, and THEN he became proven. With that sort of take, its like thinking that yeah, Ade scored 30 last season, but this season hes gonna score 7...so he sucks and we shouldn't buy him...where's the logic? I mean when you look around the world at all the clubs and see who has striker problems..We are one of them..Arsenal on the other hand are not. why? Ade.
kurtsimonw
Jul 3 2008, 06:27 PM
My logic is this: Players need to prove themself over a number of seasons, otherwise it's a gamble. Gila had 2 great goalscoring seasons, how did he turn out? Same for Oliveira. Adebayor has only had one good season. Drogba, Eto'o and Berbatov have been doing it for longer.
vnata001
Jul 3 2008, 06:41 PM
you know, i do agree with you. in order for me to feel assured that a signing is a good one, i want the player to have proven himself for an extended period of time. you're right..and don't get me wrong there are strikers, like Berba who i would rather see here over Ade. But to continue the role of devil's advocate. hey, Shevchenko was a hands down, no 2-ways about it SUPERSTAR. If any team in the world gets him, they'd be lucky right? we all know how that one turned out.
i guess what i see is just a very very high ceiling for Ade. Just the mere fact of his size and speed means hes more suited for Serie A than Gila ever was ever. Lets admit it, Gila is never gonna get BETTER than he was at Parma. My thinking is that Ade has SO MANY ways he can improve..and he's already went and got himself 30 goals, for a big club, and quite a few in high pressure situations.
For me, that's enough..its no different from people in this forum wanting Mario Gomez. Before last season i had certainly never heard of the guy. If the unquestionable Paolo, Kala, and Clarence want Ade, and Cesc and Wenger don't want him to leave..then just from that i can judge the player's value.

I'm honestly 'eh' on the various striker names being mentioned. None of 'em are really supersupercool IMO (disclaimer: I am NOT a fan of the english league). There doesn't appear to be anyone really exciting out there, really. Just as the Ukrainian failed miserably when he jumped ship to go to Chelsea, I'm not at all sure that any EPL-based players will be able to hit the ground running and score 20+ goals in their first season in Italy. The fish doll and I are still holding out for a 25 year old Van Basten clone. In the absence of that, we're not really too picky.

Thats a joke! Gila will NEVER create the chances that Adebayor does. Ade powers through and takes on defenders, Gila can't even dribble, he just takes two touches and dives!
There's always something we can say: Pato's too young, Ade's too wasteful, Drogba's too soft, Eto'o's just annoying..but come on, they would all be more than welcome, cuz their talent stands out amongst everyone else in the world..that's why they're linked with Milan
try telling someone Gilardino is capable of this:

For me we will be very very lucky if we can bring here Adebayor , Milan family is his environment for utmost mature !!
in fact this time again Galliani point his finger on another right choice !!

%99 after all the words Ronaldinho belongs to Milan . but they try their chances for Adebayor too , they are trying and my guess is that they did something with italian agent of Adebayor but they are waiting for the right moment !

I'm honestly 'eh' on the various striker names being mentioned. None of 'em are really supersupercool IMO (disclaimer: I am NOT a fan of the english league). There doesn't appear to be anyone really exciting out there, really. Just as the Ukrainian failed miserably when he jumped ship to go to Chelsea, I'm not at all sure that any EPL-based players will be able to hit the ground running and score 20+ goals in their first season in Italy. The fish doll and I are still holding out for a 25 year old Van Basten clone. In the absence of that, we're not really too picky.
[I know it's impossible but] what do you think about David Villa?
