I just hope for them to make smart move, like Wenger did in Arsenal, by signing good undervalued prospects more and signing overrated star players less. if there is really unadequate amount of money, I won’t hope Milan to sacrifice too much, because I’d hate to see my club go down to serie-B because of financial problem.

Here are some videos of Andrei Arshavin

The City of Milan owns that stadium. Galliani and Moratti have often complained about it, and it is because of this reason that Berlusconi has indicated he wants to build a new stadium for Milan that is owned by the club itself. Also, I believe the Artemio Franchi is not owned by a single club as well, rather it is under the authority of the city. There are some others, but I can't remember them all right now. Hopefully what Juve's doing will set other Serie A clubs in motion. Juve's new stadium is supposed to be a dandy, with stands close to the pitch, no running track, and 75,000 capacity. Hopefully, more clubs will be able to follow in that direction. It's things like old stadia and less than great fan attendance that make Serie A seem below the likes of La Liga and the EPL. We all know the quality of Serie A clubs is among the best in the world, but there isn't the same showcasing of that quality as there is elsewhere.

Carletto was at the Russia v Sweden match, and has said to reporters that Arshavin is the biggest surprise at Euro 08. I really liked what I saw from Arshavin against Sweden, and I hope this is true. Oh, and I definately don't think Pato is a one season wonder. I'm practically the biggest Pato advocate, I want him starting every game! I'm just acting cautiously because you never know what can happen to a player. Apparently Milan is heavily interested in signing Russian striker Andrei Arshavin.

By the way Milan are supposedly leading the race to capture this guy, Andrei Arshavin, from Russia...I'll give a link to a video when I get home from the doctors I don’t know if Rash Man (Borriello) is going to be able to take on the responsibility…Hopefully crossing my fingers that he can.

I'd like to see Borriello being given a decent chance, hopefully he's learnt his lesson about unprescribed medicines. Galliani seems remarkably gloomy about Milan buying anyone at all.

Since the season ended, we've been talking and talking about possible new strikers, and I guess it was a waste of time 'dreaming' about the new strike-force of Pato and Mr. X. After 1,2 and 4, my hope level was at 100.. then 5 came and it went down 30.. 6 made it 10.. and 7 leaves me at a 1.. :P Cheers to anyone who understood the above. Pretty much Avia..

But you sum up EXACTLY how i feel with your last comment. 1. Galliani says Milan own the transfer market! 2. Says we have 40Mill to spend on a striker 3. We are linked to Dino at Barca 4. We are linked to Eto'o, Shev, Drogba and Adebayor 5. Then starts to say Boruc @ 10 mill is too expensive 6. Such and such a striker is too expensive 7. If we cant land Ade, we dont NEED any othr signings! WTF! Moka – i dont know about the cheap bit coz i do remember when Milan used to be a sledgehammer when it came to signings.
