The AC Milan Thread [2006/2007]

[jani]

Milan have bought Yoann Gourcuff (19) and brought back Pasquale Foggia (21).

Gourcuff is a replacement for Rui Costa while Foggia is a speedy small winger that Milan have never had in recent times.


commitment? I dont know what to make of it, but Kaká said he was staying, but Spanish papers tell a different story.

Maldini, Costacurta.. I guess they are leaving for sure..

Dida and Abbiati seem to be on the way out if we get Buffon. Dida to Man Utd and Abbiati to Torino, Juve or Arsenal.

Others havent said anything because simply, they are on holiday. I even doubt how they managed to contact Kaká in the USA.

 

[Axolote]

Here in Argentina there are some rumours that Crespo will go to Milan...any news in Italy about this...?

When dont they?

I would take Crespo back with my eyes closed. Gilardino showed he can complement a bigger guy at the WC, playing behind Toni, so we could try the same.

 

[Stephan_BEL]

As such a die-hard Milan fan you should know your numbers better man. In 84 they were already back in Serie A. Last time they were in B it was 82/83.

If you should live to get as old as I am, you'd start to forget the exact years also you'll see. In '84 I was 15 years old, chose Milan because the other peeps chose English clubs (well West Ham was/is still my favorite english club though) and I like to do different. Milan has the exact same colors as my belgian team (RIP bankrupted in 1999), that's why I chose them first.

I never went to San Siro because I don't have the money to pay the trip, I'm not some rich man's boy I'm affraid.

First time I seen Milan live was when they played KV Mechelen in Belgium, now I always go see them when they play in a 400km range of my home (when I can get there by car and the ticket is cheap enough), last time I went was in Eindhoven in the group CL stage last year.

I'm not gonna stop supporting Milan. let me just get that out of the way. even if I do come out and say "**** Milan, I hate them now", I'd still end up waking up Sunday mornings and watching their games intently.

and no, I don't love Sheva more than Milan. if I had, I would've upped and bought a Chelsea shirt that very day. but I still love him, favourite player back when I first started watching football in 01/02, favourite player today. I admit I haven't shown much love for Milan lately, but that's not because of Sheva, it's the scandal. I've already said, had Milan gone bankrupt and been demoted to Serie D, I'd still support them like no tomorrow. it's just the conditions they've been in lately, they've hit me hard. every time Milan would get a questionable call towards them, everyone would say "man Milan just pay the refs, they run the league, blah blah blah", and I'd just deny it. and now with all the **** that's been going on, I just kinda felt backstabbed by the club itself. you give your love and support to a club so that they can play with heart, try their best to win, please the fans, etc. but since I actually started following the allegations against Milan more closely (thank you Stephan), all the question marks just sort of faded. don't worry, I'm still gonna be here.

 

[jani]

whatever it is, sorry for questioning. your like some bloody girlfriend of Milan in a love/hate relationship

anyways, as Milan always boast, Milanistas are a family



news. Abbiati officially loaned to Torino. Buffon is closer.

Zambro's first choice is us. Damn, I really want these two. Sorry Juventino

Kaka freaking called Milan HQ from his holidays to deny he wants to leave after he read the official website publish quotes of him apparently saying he was open to a Real move


Lately no strikers have been linked with Milan except Zlatan. But he's closer to Inter. No word on Crespo. But why you guys want him so much? He's like 32?

Dida to be offloaded? If you're getting Buffon no one can really complain however.

And Kaká, I just knew he just had class enough .

 

[jani]

Dida's contract is about to expire and I think he doesnt want to sign the new deal. Milan said that they wont sell him however. But if Buffon comes, Dida will be the one who would want out.


and yeah, Kaka

 

[dannyeli]

It's been a long time, but well i'm here to support Milan. I'm sad the Sheva is no longer with the team but we have to move on.

The scandal has benn sad, but we were very fortunate not to be relegate it. And as far as Kaka, i don't think he will go to Real Madrid.

 

[Juventino]

news. Abbiati officially loaned to Torino. Buffon is closer.

Apperently Secco told Milan they can forget about Buffon now. Juventus demanded Abbiati in the deal.

 

[sprada]

This message taken from AC Milan page says everything that i want to hear.

MILAN FOREVER

The idea, Carlo Ancelotti and the champions remain with Milan. Neither the coach nor our great champions hopped on a plane, actually Rino Gattuso even went so far as to state officially that he is ‘proud to be at Milan and is not leaving’. There is no need to worry. Niether Spain's La Liga nor England's Premier League will be able to boast the likes of Nesta, Gattuso, Kakà or Pirlo. They are our champions and they are here to stay. In fact, Ricky once again politely but firmly declined the interest of another club and he just renewed his contract with Milan until the end of 2011 in the midst of the World Cup. Our champions stay because playing for a Milan is a matter of the heart, playing here is like being with family.

Nothing else to say.

if thats true


Why would anyone want Crespo? Pippo is older still and nobody is calling for him to be sacked. Crespo still scores for fun like he's half his age, and he doesnt cost a penny

Why would anyone not want Crespo?

 

[jani]

because we have Pippo



and btw, Juventino, I doubt Milan would be that stupid to not give up Abbiati for Buffon. Just doesnt make sense.

 

[Juventino]

Yeah... it was probably Abbiati's own decision. I understand he rather plays in Serie A then B.

Hey, been a while indeed. How's it going mate?

 

[Stephan_BEL]

I'd take Crespo any day of the week to replace Amoruso He ruled in the WC, not only scoring himself but giving the best assist of the tournament (the Cambiasso goal).

I hope Buffon would come since Dida is on his way out after the next season, he doesn't want to sign a contract extention and has likely already agreed a deal with either Villareal or Man Utd.

Just remember players come and go, but the team stays

 

[MaestroZidane]

QUestion for all milan fans, whats the great paolo maldini up to these days?? I read that he may still play this upcoming season and then retire??

 

[jani]

well, almost every new season seems to be his last season

he's not 100% anymore. I dont seem him being a starter


neways, Buffon to stay at Juve. very surprising. but two other very good goalkeepers around, Frey and Amelia.

 

[dannyeli]

Hey, been a while indeed. How's it going mate?

Everything is great, real busy with work and college, not to mention GF.

Now like sheva7 said, very surprising to read that Buffon will play for Juve. I think Milan should really start moving before all the good players from Fiore, Lazio and Juve are gone.

At least 2 very good player and other 2 good players from those clubs Milan should sign, don't know who or what position.
