    Well I hope atleast 1 of them becomes a part of our defense.
    And Galliani has called up Arsenal enquiring about Adebayor,while confirming the return of Di Gennaro and the signing of Zigoni.

    Happy b Paolo. I’m still more comfortable with Leonardo as coach, whom I honestly have confidence in, than him, following his statement that Milan won’t win the CL without Kaka.
    OK, how many of you really don’t believe in Ronaldinho? Count me out.
    You people are just wasting your breaths… I guess you’re just bored and have nothing to say, and you haven’t found anything better to do than denigrating one of the finest and most valuable players today.
    You can contradict as much as you want, but aside from Messi, no one has been as ecstatic as Ronie, not Kaka, not Ronaldo, name it.
    I don’t get how anyone would be more excited about Kaka than Ronaldinho, except people with poor taste. Not to diminish Kaka, but come on, there’s a clear distinction here.
    Even when he’s not at his best, Ronie is still the best, and I’m talking among the cream of soccer, and above Kaka.
    I don’t know which top 5 Maldini was referring to, but as far as I’m concerned, Ronie’s a the pack. So to all you disrespectful fellows, shut your trunks!
    And one more thing, you stupid ingrates, you call yourself milan fans, you can’t even recognize all the awesome stuff ronie made you witness in the dreadful experience he’s had under the f*ckhead of a coach Ancelotti ( really, I respect him, it’s mostly on this matter I decide to characterize him as such). Some of the most scintillating moves of the season sprang from my man.
    Stop the hatin’ you bunch of fools.
    And about Maldini’s comment, I say even with an average season, like most of the one we just lived, Ronaldinho could still help the team be European champs. And this form is frankly the worst I fear about Ronie next year.

    Yo, rosoneri, MU is on Nilmar. Jesus people, I seriously need a way to get a hold of someone in the Club. This is crazy… Ferguson is apparently thinking about something like a $20M offer. shit, we SHOULD NOT let that happen. Patcook, I ain’t talking to you bro, I know there something else going on in you head… Goodness people, open your eyes, FUCK, somebody’s got to raise flags for Galliani, Leonardo, come on! People, react… Shit!

    im really pulling for Dzeko instead of Adebayor. i dont know why im not that into Ade, im not saying he sucks, but for some reason i can see him being another Olivera. im gonna go attack a Volkswagen dealership if they turn us down.

    same here. I have somehow never liked Adebayor.
    And bmam,we dont criticise Dinho for what he has acheived,but at the present moment selling Kaka to make Dinho the focal point of the team is nonsense. Kaka is better right now.
    And I hope ManU take away Nilmar. Atleast then,they wont go after Benzema,Villa or Etoo.

    So, I dont know if anyone noticed (besides me, that is), but Luca Toni want to come back to Serie A and says that the two Milan clubs have made overtures. The only thing that makes this palatable as an Inter fan is that Moratti was also asking after Ribary. Toni, though, said no such thing about Milan.

    Hmmm, you all do need a new Shevchenko after all, and he did say he would take a pay cut.

    In any event, I just thought I would warn you all. I wouldn’t want anyone to suffer apoplexy as they came across this story without time to mentally prepare.

    (for all the poop, check out yesterday’s Corrire dello Sport, the digital version of the paper).

    I am not going to get into this ronaldinho thing again.

    But it would be nice for dinho fan boys to not parade around as Milan fans and insulting the rest of us for not agreeing with them.

    Johanna, most of us are just trying to pretend that wasn’t happening to keep our sanity.

    well im not expecting much, and it would be stupid if he said, we will win the scudetto for sure. for one inter & juve are stronger so far ONLY ON PAPER. so let’s not get ahead of ourselves. next season im basically looking for depth and consistency, those 2 can win us the scudetto irregardless. Scudetto 99!!

    Well what can I say, sorry I’m insulting so many of you. You know, that’s the sad part; how come there’s so many of you?! Well that’s good, that we get many players to lean on for enjoying the game. The passion is spread across and not focused on one or two men. I recognize a lot of talent out there. Just leave Dinho alone people. Who you wanna put on top of him? G. Rossi… Please, you’re wrong. And that bugs me not just as a Dinho/great football fan, but as a Milan fan as well. I want the best in my team and the best for it. And when I say the best in it, I acknowledge that the team is more important than individualities; but yall know, since you love kaka so much, that outstanding players deserve their ovation. And I want a great team, with top players, no less than a group of stars, forget that.
    As much as it is hard for you to swollow the praise for Ronie, it’s hard for me to see him get ripped so undeservingly.
    But this imo stance is no sub for what’s real. Clearly, one of us is an idiot; with completely different opinions, and what seems pretty unarguable to me.

    Ok, Kaka is a great player, played better than Ronaldinho, and now he’s gone, and place to his latter. Maybe that’s the reason for all that fussing. Plus I know how much you’re attached to him. Don’t call me less of a Milan fan, because I like Dinho better. He was as much a rossonero with Kaka on the roster as he is now, and it doesn’t batter me at all that now he’s the only one of the two staying, simply ’cause I think he’s the better. And if Kaka represent Milan better, then get ready for Milan the new version. You have no idea what it’s gonna be like, do you?

    what a crank you are bmam. most of the people on this blog know their football and from an outsiders perspective i can see why they arent to keen on ronaldinho.

    no doubt hes up there with the best players ever, hes that good, but when milan bought him he was more reknowned for his partying than anything else. everyone knew that him and kaka couldnt play together but berlusconi wanted him even though it would create disharmony in a team that had played with eachother for years. he was blatantly just the wrong player to buy and his arrival has pushed kaka out the door.

    personally if i was a milan fan i would be pissed off with galliani not spending the dinho money on the defence or 3 quality young italians. he seems obsessed with buying over the hill players (how much time did he spend messing about with beckham??) which is really starting to damage milans position as a european giant. there are so many quality italians out there and your not being linked with any of them. g.rossi has offered himself and there isnt even a whisper of it in the media. where are the great italian players you are renowned for???

    why the fuck you mans hyping G.Rossi! the guy isnt a target man, something milan needs. you obviuosly dont understand football. Who on earth would play G.Rosssi and Pato up front, there too young, thats why were signing Dzeko or Adebayor coz their target mans. PLUS Pato is ten times better than Rossi and 3 years younger.

    m4l,no one was talking about Pato and Rossi upfront.But how about this..
    Pato Rossi Dinho
    Dzeko/Boriello
    It doesnt look too shabby. But it wont happen,so we dont have to worry ourselves about it.
    Galliani has said that he hopes Berlu can start spending for Milan from next year,when our financial situation will improve.

    Happy birthday to the former Commander in Chief, the Commissioner, Boss of all Bosses.

    That being said, the Dzeko deal should happen. I think. No affirmatives can be seen from the Cissokho saga-ette though.

    But looking at the team roster, it looks like there’s some depth except for the front lines. I wanted to get an insider’s opinion on whether or not Leonardo will give these guys any significant playing time, i.e. enough in the first half of the season to turn some of them into starters by the mid-to-late ritorno fixtures:

    Cardaccio,
    Viudez,
    Darmian,
    Abate,
    Diniz, and
    Di Gennaro

    Abate and Cardaccio might get some PT. Viudez,Darmian and Di Gennaro will get a few minutes here and there. Diniz,wont play i think. Then again I dont know a lot about some of these players,and whether Leo likes to play youngsters.
