Ambrosini >>>>>>>>>>>> Flamini

Leo's mistake last season was playing the same line-up every single game. Then again, he didn't really have much to chose from, but he could have used Flamini a little more and give Ambro some breathing space. Also, it's true Ambro went downhill in the last couple of months, but so did the whole team.

You're overreacting dude

Really? And here I thought I hadn't put enough ">>>>>>>>>>>".

+1 apart from the so much >>'s but i think that if we played flamini more he would be much better than this

Ambrosini is the starter for sure, but Flamini should be given more opportunity to prove himself. If not just to give Ambro more rest.

ambrosini is 33, 34 this season. Flamini is 26. Its time to change the who starts and who sits on the bench role. What are we gonna wait until flamini is 30 to start him ??

also on Honda, we should def sign him. He's quality and only 23. Def will put seedorf on the bench.

Imo Flamini needs to be a starter next season. And I'm not even saying he should replace Ambro, imo Pirlo should be moved further forward, he is being wasted in front of the defence. Ambro and Flamini in front of the defence would be ideal for this, they will free Pirlo to do what he does best, instead of having Pirlo in front of the defence doing all the defensive work while Ambro and another mid (under Carlo it was Ambro and Rino) playing as "Defensive Wingers"

I agree with X-Off, last season both Ambro and Flamini were mis-used. Flamini should have played more at the start of the season instead of burning Ambro at both ends for so long. At the end of the season Flamini started to prove what he could really do. I remember the games he played against Roma were he was immense. He pracically won the midfield single handedly, and the game he played against Fiornetina when Ambro got injured and Flamini replaced him, we were losing the midfield at that point and when Flamini came on we started to control the game. At this point Ambro was playing like cr@p. He just couldn't keep up anymore.

If Allegri doesn't play with both of them in the same line up then he needs to figure out a smart way to rotate them. Both have different qualities and we need to utilies them to the maximum. Allegri needs to identify which game suites which player etc. Flamini would be ideal against the smaller teams as he can push forward better then Ambro but is still solid when we need to defend.

Regarding the card debate, we've had it millions of times. All of our DMs are card magnets. Ambro was sent off more then Flamini last season, while Flamini got more yellows. What I don't lik about Ambro is that he mouths off when he already knows he's on a yellow, I've seen him get sent off this way at least 3 times. While Flamini makes the rash tackles when there is no need to

I believe a lot of us here wants Dzeko more than Ibrahimovic (me included). While Ibra is the one who has proven himself more then Dzeko.

We need a player who is still very much motivated and always is running his longs out just to prove his expectations. I agree with you that Ambrosini didn't have had a bad season at all but we need refreshment. I also dont say that it HAS to be Flamini. Ramires would be fine as wel

On other terms, does anyone understand the (rumoured) agreement that Milan and Inter reached about Mancini? Cause I dont
http://www.milannews.it/?action=read&idnotizia=29235

Would be AWFULL to see him for another season here

This won't happen. Berlusconi will not let that happen (based on what he said when we transfered Mancini in winter).

Ambrosini is Milan's captain. He should be a starter. The team needs it captain - this is the logic I follow.

If he turns out bad (which I doubt) we can bench him. So a big IF.

Refreshments? Hell yeah - Oddo, Gattuso, Dinho - engouh positions to find a refreshment.

Tuttomercato reports:

Albertazzi and Legati will be loaned - link
In this article Milans defenders are mentioned. It's not a relevation are defensive line is (too) old. Our average is 30,7 which comes up lower then usually (last few seasons) but still makes me worry.

Also, Milan again linked with Empoli's topscorer Eder - link

Who Wouldn't Want Inter Striker Mario Balotelli In Their Team? - Mauro Tassotti - link

EDIT:

If Mancini is close to come again in Milan for a loan. Inter will pay 70 % of his wages (2.5 mil euro), Milan will pay 30 % (1.4 mil euro ). - link

You mean someone as useless as Mancini has a wage of 4m euro? Oh dear...

Kaladze's wage is 4m/year too. Or 82.000 Euro/ week.

I agree, better to put someone that can play 90 minutes and give his best.
Flamini works better then Amborsini.. I would defently bench Seedrof for Honda
cause he has skills that Seedrof has and he can replace the freekicks or corners
How many times has we been linked with Eder, it been going on and off allt he time..

Gennaro Gattuso will not follow Fabio Cannavaro to Dubai, according to his agent. - link

how if Kaladze and Mancini's wages are the same, Why can't Milan get rid of him?

Kaladze refused every single offer that other clubs made for him. He doesn't mind if he doesn't play he just want's to earn 4 mil/ year until 2011. That's on his contract.
If we get Mancini we will pay only 30 % of his wage so maybe if he starts to work harder he will deserve our 1.4 mil.

I guess Mancini can give us depth but.....bleh.

He was back up for Pato or Ronaldinho right? It will be hard for him to deserve that 1.4 m..
Let's hope Kaladze gets a better offer then 4m/yr.

Not in a million years. Who would offer 4m/y for Kaladze ?

You're not serious, are you?

of course not! just want to get rid of him.
I menat Lets hope somebody (stupied) else will offer more then 4 m /yr

I don't see the relevance in this?

I hope you didn't try to say Ambrosini isn't very much motivated.

If we don't get a new midfielder, then both Flamini and Ambrosini should play. But if we sign a box-to-box midfielder we all want so bad (like Ramires), then Ambrosini should be the DM next to the box-to-box.

Was I the only one impress by Prince Boateng of Ghana or what? I think he is a pretty good player, and would fit very well in Milan.

no , I think he is very good and I would love to see him in a Milan jersey

He recently moved to Pompey, which doesn't make him an easy target. On the other hand, the club is still (I think) in financial problems, so we could afford him probably. But, a move to Germany would be more likely.

I read some rumours about Kevin-Prince Boateng. And he is quite cheap! But I haven't read anything about Milan, so...

I haven't heard anything but Is it true that his littlebrother played World Cup too? I don't know if its in Ghana or in Germany, cause Germany has lots of others nationaltys but they are still german.

Jérôme and Kevin-Prince are brothers, yes. Jérôme is an all-round defender for Germany.

These german players are "wanted" (according to transfermarkt.de):

Lukas Podolski (Manchester City) - 20 million euros price tag.
Mesut Özil (Manchester United, Valencia, Barcelona, Manchester City, Arsenal) - 24 million euros price tag.
Thomas Müller (Chelsea) - ?
Bastina Schweinsteiger (Manchester United, Real Madrid) - ?
Sami Khedira (Real Madrid) - ?
Phillip Lahm (Manchester United) - ?
Denis Aogo (Juventus) - ?
Serdar Tasci (Arsenal) - ?
Miroslav Klose (Rubin) - ?

Good that I finally got that clear, kinda like the Milito brothers but in a diffrent team.
..And not playing agianst each other in the semis in Champions Leuage

Boateng and Boateng did play against each other in the World Cup. That's special too. (Both started the game.)

yeah, I remembered, when it ended 1-0 to Germany.
Thank God that Germany don't not beat them that badly.
But Serbia - Germany , lucky serb

Hope something starts to happen now the world cup is about to end

Pastore Honda & Otamendi at least those I hope.

After this world cup, I'm not so sure about Otamendi. Everybody was raving about how he could play CB and wingback, but at least as a wingback he didn't impress.

Better said, the Germans put him apart.

According to milannews.it we officially signed a player called Luca Santonocito from Celtic. He is 19, he can play both as a left back and as a left midfielder.
here

After Aadiyah and Hoffor, we're getting this young fellow. Good job! (If he's really that talented though )
Also says he played in the youth of Inter

This is all we can do this summer ?

i don't think he'll be first team as he wasn't presented on our website

Milan Genoa youth swap milannews.it i dont know much about the genoa players is this a good or bad deal?

Ronaldinho doesn't want to leave.

Milan after Ledesma - link

EDIT :

Goodbye Fabregas, Barcelona can't pay for you - link

We are not linked with Fabregas yet but still Bracelona's crisis opens the door fol Italian clubs.

Barca not being able to afford him is just delaying te inevitable.

He loves it at Arsenal, so I fail to see any reason why he would leave unless it's to Barca. No chance he'll go to anyone else.

I think the same reason that Dzeko would choose to go elsewhere. If he seriously thinks Arsenal's project is going nowhere fast and that Barca can't afford him...he might choose to go elsewhere. And Juve and Inter (not us ) look like they don't mind splashing the cash in their quest for glory.

Allegri wants Ledesma
