Pre-Season Squad Analysis

CASSANO AT 80+ KGS >>> THAN ANY PLAYERS LINKED SO FAR

just my rant of the day

Proof is that Prandelli confired that Fantantonio actually lost 3.5 KGS in pre-season training.

Cassano will stay.

I hope so Arq, he has been one of the most talented but underrated Italian players of the last few years.

Great summary Forza.

Also it's great to hear that Cassano is losing weight, however it appeared at one stage that Ronaldinho was going to work hard after regressing only for it to all fall apart. Thankfully Cassano has no reason to feel complacent having had a far less successful career.

Well Dosto, if you have any doubts.

I have a keen sense of memory and have compared both sets of quotes regarding their daily thoughts and ambitions with Milan as Cassano has considerably shown more dedication and commitment in his words as Max and Prandelli have praised his focus in training.

Also, Ronaldinho was always as a state where he had nothing to lose he lost his competitiveness after his glories with Barca. Antonio on the other hand, has already stated his self-ultimatum on never forgiving himself if he screws this chance up and his wife is one that has reinforced this. Plus, Cassano's dire need to be in the Euro's and playing regularly for Italia shows the diligent commitment and ambition he is willing to show for club and country.

And of course, by a visual standpoint in training; I have seen Ronaldinho who had shown commitment only in the beginning of the season yet shortly after only practiced his juggling and was the jester around with his Brazilian crew as one video shows how complacent he truly is and slow to the staff orders.

Cassano on the other hand by my visual perspective has been quite professional and focused in training at Milanello (despite making others laugh to the point of tears)

I trust that he has the right motivation, I'm simply erring on the side of caution in this case. I wouldn't sell him in anything except extreme circumstances however.

I think the Dinho problem is similar to lots of others talented Brazilians and that being that they peak too early, often are womanizers and end up divorced and missing their homeland and the party lifestyle. Maybe a big generalization but the likes of rivaldo,Adraino, dinho I believe still had a lot to offer had they not themselves been their worst enemy and shrugged their demons.

Cassano is just a bit crazy, but being in a team of big personalities like Milan it has tamed him and he still has the hunger to play for the national team and win trophies with Milan
