Good signing by Milan.

How much will he cost ?

by Ganso Mon Nov 14, 2011 12:02 am

We don't even need him,I can't believe we are signing another striker instead of a midfielder.one of the few galliani decisions that pissed me off to the extreme hmm

What happens with Inzaghi? Isnt he coming back from injury soonish? I read he may considering moving on from Milan.

by Ganso Mon Nov 14, 2011 12:10 am

Even if in pippo leaves we still have pato,robinho el shaaraway and cassano will be back in a few months.wtf is galliani thinking

A replacement for Cassano no doubt.

He's looked decent for Catania since making the move, but I dunno how useful he'll be for Milan. He'll bring a completely different skill set from that of Cassano and it not be what Milan needs.

Yeah, I know Milan dont really need him but I was just wondering specifically about Inzaghi.

I know he doesnt want to retire and I know he has talked about leaving if he isnt important to Milan anymore. Hope he can stay at a level where he is still playing European football.

I do not understand why we are signing this guy (if we actually are)

I hope he proves me wrong though

As for Maxi, I havent seen him since his Barca days. BUt I somehow doubt he has gotten faster and more mobile...how can he and Ibra play at the same time? Do alot of the same kinds of things.

by Ganso Mon Nov 14, 2011 12:14 am

Tbh ibra has been really mobile,he's always going back to the am position and creating chances.(another reason ibra-pato will be deadly)

by Grande_Milano Mon Nov 14, 2011 12:18 am

so we signed him or what? I didnt want any strikers -_-

True, Ibra likes to roam and does it well. Maybe its just two tall strikers seems so odd.

Maxi does seem like a good finisher

Not many of our reguarly playing forwards put away their chances consistently, so Maxi could be useful in that regard

I was happy for this to go through if we played for a month and it became apparent that we needed a fresh face for the rotation given Cassano's absence, however I don't approve of this deal having not even given El Shaarawy a chance to show how he will mature when given more time with the first team.

As a player he's useful though, so I've no complaints on that front.
