FORZA PALOSCHI !!

spoken like a true a school-kid forza #43

I think Paloschi needs to decide soon, whether he's going to be a goal poacher or a targetman...and work towards it.

He needs to improve his off the ball runs a lot, and of course touch is something you can always improve.

lol relax it takes time. Hes not gifted like pato so he'll take a few years but hes got potential. This year i'm gonna say he'll score 10 goals.

Yeah 10-12 goals in all competitions will I think be very good. More than that I want to see how well he integrates with the rest of the team.


It would be interesting with so many youth players purchased,we're gonna like Arsenal have a whole Milan U-23s playing in the Coppa Italia.

lol relax it takes time. Hes not gifted like pato so he'll take a few years but hes got potential. This year i'm gonna say he'll score 10 goals.

If he's supposed to remain a Milan player then I hope he doesn't leave on loan, or co-ownership ****. he can be Milan's first one-club man since God.

Tsk. Naughty word removed.

Milan young gun Alberto Paloschi could be on his way to Serie B hopefuls Bari on a season loan.

The Italian Under-19 international made a name for himself on the senior stage when he scored within seconds of taking to the field in his debut against Siena last season.

But with the arrival of Ronaldinho and Marco Borriello, Paloschi isn’t likely to play a significant role in the coming campaign and is set to be sent out to gain experience.

“I have asked Milan for Paloschi,” Bari sporting director Giorgio Perinetti confirmed. “The player’s agent agrees and now it is down to the Rossoneri.”

Paloschi has stressed his delight at wearing the Diavolo shirt, but he is ready to accept a spell in the Second Division if it helps his development.

“The only thing that matters to me is growing physically and technically,” the 18-year-old insisted.

“Whether I stay with Milan or go somewhere else, that is all I will be thinking about. I know that the club will find the right solution for me.”

Bari would be a good club to join with Antonio Conte as manager they started to play some good football towards the end of last season. Lanzafame was there last year and earned a move to Palermo off the back of his performances.

+1. Now only if they kept him in Milan. With the continuous injury crisis we have with our strikers, he's bound to learn more than if he went to another club as 2nd or 3rd choice striker.

I think he's gonna stay and I think staying at Milan can actually be great for his development. He'll get first team football... and with all these young players, the people who bash our team for being too old won't have any ground to stand on. I personally think Paloschi could be the next Inzaghi...

His talent hasn't impressed me as say a Bojan or Aguero but he could certainly learn from the galaxy of stars around him.....it would have been great if he could watch Ronaldo's approach to goalscoring as well. If he is going to be a pure finisher like RVN, Trez or Pippo his decisions and shot selection has to increase exponentially......at present he's getting off great shots on target. His placement of these shots leaves a lot to be desired. Hopefully he'll learn to roll the ball into the far corner and blast it at near post like Aguero

Would Paloschi be happy to play 3 or 4 Coppa matches this season? I don't think so.

Perhaps because he hasn't the same amount of playing time as Bojan and Aguero, and just turned 18 just a while ago. Give the kid a break. Do you even know what kind of goalscorer Paloschi is? He's closer to Inzaghi... not Ronaldo. He's a poacher and he's just 18 years old. He was in the primavera team not too long ago.

Paloschi is not as good as Pato that's for sure... but he's on his way to being like Inzaghi.

And are you bloody kidding me? We didn't get along before and you had to show here just to harass me some more?

*snipsnip* edit made

Portikins, He could get a lot of competitive playing time considering our injury crisis... not just Coppa Italia matches. Even if Pato and Ronaldinho come back. Inzaghi won't play as much as he used to.

I think people should consider what they post before they post and think carefully.

Edit: Toned Down a tad.

*snipsnip* edit made

He gave some valid points, like his shot selection. Pretty much every shot he hit against Man City, Joe Hart didn't need to move to sve it, they were right at him.

And he isn't as good as Bojan or Aguero, and never will be in my opinion, I feel they're just far superior. That's no criticism of Paloschi at all, it's like saying Seedorf isn't as good as Kaka', it doesn't mean he's bad.

*snipsnip* edit made

I think his criticism is unfair and frankly inappropriate. Lets face it. The kid has had to play tons of matches (more than any of the Man City or Milan players). He was in a major tournament.

That's your opinion. I think if Paloschi develops more he will be better than Bojan. I think Bojan is a tad bit overrated, but then again I don't have a high opinion of Barcelona so that may impact my opinion.

Sorry If I offended you this is a new forum and we should all be

Anyway when I spoke about Ronaldo I simply meant that there are aspects of being a striker that ANY young player could learn from him. Ronaldo is versed in almost all arts of striking...because even though he would be remembered for his Ronaldinho-like performances at Barca and Inter (actually he was >>>Ronaldinho)- he was a better RVN striker than....well RVN at Real Brazil and Milan. So Paloschi might not pick up the art of picking up the ball from half field and running to goal....but he might learn how to place his shots better for instance.....It would be invaluable in actually turning him into the next Inzaghi.

Great post.

Now wait a minute,... First say, why do you think Bojan is better then Palsochi? Have you ever seen him play in a barca formation like this for exmaple: Valdes- Oleguer, Marquez, Edmilson, Sylvinho - Yaya, Xavi, Busquets, Guðjohnsen, Zambrotta - Bojan? Or did you see him only play amongst Ronaldinho, Deco, Iniesta, Messi,.. cause it aint the same.

Secondly, if you base your statement on his ratio or appearences I agree. But saying he never will be better then Bojan and Aguero is...just a prediction like me saying Inter won't win anything in the next 20 years. It's just not founded.

IMO Paloschi is a old-fashioned italian striker, who will develop until his 24-25 year and reach his peak at let's say 28. Like the 80'ties strikers did. And he never will get the hype Bojan did get, on that I'm sure. He's just very much different.

I just think he has alot more talent. Right now Paloschi is not in the same league as Bojan, and I don't think he ever will be. It's like trying to say Pippo is say.. better than a guy like Raul. He never has been and never will be, they're both World class at what they do, but Pippo in terms of football ability is very average, while Raul is superb.

Now, it's my opinion, that's all. Like I don't think Liverpool will win the league title for at least another 10 years, or I don't think Carlo will win another major trophy as Milan manager, or that Nani will never be as good as Ronaldo. They're just opinions, that's all. And besides, if you think me saying "Paloschi will never be as good as Bojan" is 'wrong' to say, IF you disagree with it, you're essentially saying "Paloshchi WILL be as good as Bojan" which is just as wrong and unfounded as my opinion.

I think Paloschi will be a good striker in the future, but better than Bojan? I don't think so. Hype doesn't mean anything, if anything it's a disadvantage for Bojan since he has alot more pressure, but I still think he'll be a better player, that's all.

Why are we comparing Bojan and Paloschi anyway? They're different sorts of players.

They are, but you can still compare their footballing ability. At least I think you can. Paloschi will be a good player, no doubt. But the position he plays is so.. 'untalented' in a way. He may be very good at what he does one day, like Pippo, but that doesn't mean he'll have much ability as a footballer. That's all I'm trying to say anyways.

I think even the Milan youth coaches will agree with you on that one, Kurt. I do as well.

In an old issue of Forza Milan magazine, there's a nice piece on Paloschi. Fillipo Galli (I think; one of the primavera coaches) commented that of the kids he's coached, Di Gennaro is much more of a natural talent. But Paloschi works very hard and is constantly trying to improve. I think the Paloschi-Pippo comparison is a good one. I love Pippo to death, but he's not a player gifted with loads of natural talent. His positioning sense, however, is second to none.

For a box striker ... You don't necessarily need to be like CR or Ronaldinho. All you need is the brains, the positioning and a lethal shot. If Paloschi can develop in those areas, I think he will have gotten his football abilities to 'his' maximum. And this is Milan after all, he will always be guaranteed champions backing him up and feeding him balls.

Agreed. Though I don't even think you need a powerful shot. I bet I could kick a ball better than Pippo, but it's his ability to nicely roll it into the corner of the net that makes him so clinical in front of goal. If Paloschi can be anything like Pippo I'll be happy. We have Pato to be out 'Bojan' and have all the ability.

True .. I think you can take Inzaghi second goal against Reina and teach it to all strikers, the positioning, the coolness in his blood, the way he thought one step ahead on Reina and tucked it right under him ...

I bet Paloschi is getting lessons as we speak


So anyways, when is Pippo playing again ? Is it against Juve ?

Yes it's the placement that he needs to work on...not simply blast it goalwards.....that's why I wanted him to see Ronaldo in action because although Ronaldo's not a by any means a classical poacher......he fills the role with total ease......imagine our new "fox in the box" with Pippo's positioning and Ronaldo's finishing He'd be a monster......he might never be able to take on 5+ defenders like Ronaldo did ......or position himself as well as Inzaghi....but he would be his own player....completely dangerous in his own role Because for all the positional sense Inzaghi has, if he was a tad more skilled he would have set records with the amount of goals scored.....actually we were hoping that something like that would have happened with Gila... but that's another story

I'm pretty positive they won't risk Pippo tomorrow. Maybe the first match when the season starts.

In that case...Bojan is better. Even better then Buffon..

He already has!

Carlo gave the impression that he was fit and ready to play.

A.C.MILAN COMUNICATO UFFICIALE
27/08/2008
MILANO - L'A.C. Milan comunica che il calciatore Alberto Paloschi è stato ceduto in compartecipazione all'F.C. Parma.

So Paloschi is going on co-ownership loan to Parma.

I wish him the very best of luck at Parma and hope to see him back at Milan next season!

Good luck Palo.

Go get em kid!!

Too bad it's co-ownership, but a year or two of first team football will be good for him. Good luck, kiddo

Co-ownership..

Hush now...let's not walk down that road again...it was co-ownership or Coppa Italia...

It has happened. Good luck, kid.

Come back soon

I agree. I just think we could get away with a classic, old fashioned loan deal.

Good luck Paloschi! Light up Serie B!
Come back soon!

Forza Paloschi!

Co-ownership is the best in this case in my eyes...

I saw the Parma game on Friday (almost WENT to the game actually, but just missed the train so...). Paloschi came on after the break and though he didn't score, he looked very good. Had a couple of extremely good chances (other team's keeper was on his toes) and Gazzetta gave him a 6.5 rating, which for them is pretty good.

Young Alberto is wearing the 43 jersey for Parma.

Rather nice signature, Giancarlo. Yes, by all means be back. Can't wait to hear your thoughts on our season opener.

lol here we go again. sigh.. his opinions replicating facts lol. Calling one of the best wingers in teh world rubbish lol, hes a lost dozer, very lost indeed

Cool - Thanks for the info!
Looking foward to Ac vs Parma (and I am hoping he puts in a good performance... maybe even a goal, once it doesn't affect us getting 3 pts. :

(psst, Trini: Parma is in Serie B this year. They won't be playing Milan).

Maybe we'll meet them in a Coppa event?

Seriously, you're out of line with that comment. Best winger in the world? LOL. That's beyond unsupported.

What's a dozer? English please.

Ohh Sh!T for true!
Well maybe in Italain Cup!...lol

My opinions have basis in facts and I'm not lost at all. I know what I'm stating. He's far from the best winger in the world.
