In This Frank interview Mauro Tassotti discusses the Ac Milan squad and Various Players new and old.

“Our squad will consist of 22-23 players plus the goalkeepers. The ideal situation is to have two players for each role. We’re a few players less compared to last season and We hope that we won’t have as many problems next season as we had last season. Thiago Silva’s contract renewal was an important piece of news for everyone. Keeping such a player is very important.”"

“All the players should be available for the USA tour. Everyone will get the chance to show their worth but The pre-season will begin without the national team players, those playing in the Euros and the Olympics.”

“It was important that we signed Montolivo. He played quite well in the Euros and we believe that he can become an important player for us.We will see where he will play when our squad is complete. We don’t know exactly which role Montolivo could be used in yet. We also still have to figure out what kind of player Bakaye Traoré is.”

“We have many players for the left back position, but we still haven’t got a true starter for that position. Dídac Vilà is a part of the Spanish Olympic squad and that means that he has talent. Spain are at the top at the moment. If you’re a starter for that team then it means that you’re an important player.”

“Pato is very important to us. He just had tons of injuries and We hope that Pato will stay well and fit during the coming season. We’re curious to see him play at the Olympics.

“We believe that De Sciglio can become an important player for our squad. Last season, De Sciglio got injured right when we could have used him. He delivered some good performances during an unlucky season. De Sciglio could become an integral player in our squad which is an important thing for us and for the club.”

“If we have thought of changing our tactical formation? I believe that we’ll continue with our current formation and then we will see when the players are fit. Boateng, for example, can do many different things. The tactical solutions could be different but in my opinion it’s too early to talk about them. We need to have an extra tactical formation which is different to the one that we’re used to.”

“Unfortunately, we didn’t win the Scudetto. It isn’t easy to win it twice in a row But it was important that we were in the race for the title up until 180 minutes before the end.”

Young Cassano looking like an absolute boss. Cool

------------------------------------------------------------

Acerbi's press conference:

MILAN - "It was a fantastic first day at pre-season training to see all the fans here. There must have been two or three thousand people here, then there was the team and to see inside Milanello was wonderful. I never expected anything like this. Thiago Silva is probably the best defender in the world at the moment but all the players here at Milan are excellent because you have to be excellent to play for Milan. It will be a great privilege to play alongside Thiago Silva. Hopefully I will learn quickly from him.

"When I played for Chievo I tried to do everything to improve as you need to make that leap in quality, I am committed to do so and then came the call from Milan and I was happy. I like to start the play going, it is a quality that I have, I like to get forward and help out in midfield. As a Milan fan I am very happy to be here and I want to win with this shirt. I’ll be ready to do my best. As a defender, Alessandro Nesta has always been my favourite player, but my first Rossoneri idol was George Weah.

"I would like to improve the tactical level of my game, we must always improve. Arriving at Milan is fascinating, as it is known to be a wonderful club, I would like to be here for ten years not a single year so I need to do well. Since I arrived I'm trying to learn better and faster and do what the coach and my team-mates say because I want to get into the mentality of this team quickly. For me now what matters is to be here and do well, the national team is a dream, but now I am just thinking about this team and what eventually will be, will be. I'm trying to do my best, to be the best I can and give everything for this team, I hope to stay here for as many years as Gattuso.

"Last season I had an injury at the beginning, but I came back and played in the Cup and did well when I was picked for the league matches so the season turned out well.

"This year, Milan, Juventus and Inter are the favourites for the title. I was very impressed with Ibrahimovic, he is strong, tall, all muscle, better to have him as a team-mate than as an opponent.

"In life no one has ever given me anything, I have always struggled to earn something. I want to win a place here and I will work to get it. During pre-season, it is more difficult in the morning than in the afternoon when we are working with the ball."

Now he might end up learning from Bonera What a Face

Prostitute mother and that childhood. Kind of makes sense that he looks like a 40-year old rather than a 30 year old.

AC Milan split their squad in two this evening and played a friendly with the home kit team winning 8-0 against the away kit team.

MILAN WHITE: (4-3-2-1)

Amelia; De Sciglio, Ely, Iotti, Taiwo; Hottor, Innocenti, Emanuelson; Valoti, Carmona; Prosenik.

Scorers: Ambrosini (2), Robinho (2), Pacifico, Traore, Boateng, Emmanuelson (swapped to Red at half time)

Match description of the aforementioned result.

-------------------------

The game lasted an hour and the first goal was scored by captain Massimo Ambrosini. He finished the game with two goals, the same as Robinho while the other goals were scored by Pacifico, Traorè and Boateng. A goal was also scored by Emanuelson who started the match with the whites but was shifted over to the reds after half time. An impressive display by Traorè who not only scored a goal but also ran the midfield and dictated play. The understanding with his team mates seems very good. Even Acerbi looked confident although he did have little to do.

by pUsHa Sun Jul 15, 2012 3:02 pm

Taiwo is back !? lol Shocked

by Ganso Sun Jul 15, 2012 3:18 pm

This is good news, good for Serie A and Italy!

Come on Galliani, quit whining about our finances and start working on a solution to the problem!

by red&blacklegion Thu Jul 19, 2012 3:59 am

Do u guys know if we'll have the whole squad available against Schalke? abate, Cassano , Monti, and Nocerino ? Pato is obviously with the brazil squad

by BiasedMilanFan3 Sun Jul 22, 2012 12:07 am

by Ganso Sun Jul 22, 2012 12:13 am

Good stuff from ses.still needs to cut his hair though.thank god pato didn't play in that potatoe field,would be out for the season

by BiasedMilanFan3 Sun Jul 22, 2012 12:47 am

Acerbi looked like absolute crap when he was trying to keep up Palacio for that last goal.

by Ganso Sun Jul 22, 2012 12:52 am

We have one of the worst defenses if not the worst from top teams...if we are still a top team

by red&blacklegion Sun Jul 22, 2012 1:48 am

We should give Acerbi some time.Remember Silva making stupid mistakes first season he was with us?BTW, I hope we give Albertazzi more chances to prove himself.

by BiasedMilanFan3 Sun Jul 22, 2012 2:41 am

Silva actually had Inter, Madrid and Barca following him before we signed him. No one wanted Acerbi, not even Chievo since negotiations were so easy and uninterrupted by other clubs.

Acerbi will suuuuuccccckkkkkk

by Forza Sun Jul 22, 2012 2:51 am

El Shaarawy is shaping up to be a fantastic player. Meanwhile, Acerbi looks like Bonera v 2.

by nichabr Tue Jul 24, 2012 10:47 pm

ganz and valoti looked great today against schalke.

by Guest Tue Jul 24, 2012 10:51 pm

didnt watch the first half but 2nd half he was ok. .... .i mean acerbi...

but to me it looked like boateng el sharawwy traore antonini they just looked not so good.

hope its just preseason stuff and they show up in first game .... pretty mediocre performance ... schalke was bossing the entire game
