Yes but financial troubles couldn't just start in one day - with or without the court case - remember this was an appeals court actually reduced the fine. Almost certain there wasn't much chance of reducing the fine to zero.

My point is he isn't really poorer in August than he was in May so should have kept Merkel to play mid this year too.

His ability to play either left or right means he's first choice sub for both spots. Antonini fails too often and Oddo is a waste (aside his game winning penalty yesterday). Much better to sell oddo for peanuts than losing Zambro IMO

I agree. Zambrotta is a key squad member, he is at least reliable, opposed to Antonini and Oddo. All these variations including Cassano/Zambrotta indicate we're really unable to cough up 10 millions for Montolivo... And this puts our alleged interest in Fabregas also into question, as I don't think we could realistically considered bidding for him, with this kind of non-existent financial background.

The BEST post in this thread since the post number 4721

This guy was priced something like 25-30 mil few seasons ago. He was really impressive in Euro 2008. Kind of the ideal player to partner Prince, MVB & Flamini in the midfield. Just wondering how much he is worth now? He is a pure talent by the way!

Although Kaka back is still my dream number 1. Imagine AC Milan in UCL semi final against Barca, Madrid or Bayern. Who would you trust to be ACM's deciding factor?

The man who lives to decide these occasion:

Pato Imbrhimovic
Kaka
Prince MVB Flamini

or an over hyped fake, fragile Kaka-wanna-be kid with a mediocre future from Brazil?

Pato Ibrahimovic
Prince
Ganso MVB Flamini

I don't expect Kaka to play 30 games in the league & 16 in UCL like someone like Prince, Silva, Abate etc. ACM can play Cassano or Robinho as trequartista & still win away to say Genova, Bari etc (no disrespect), but when its high pressure game, then the flair of Kaka is what AC Milan is missing rite now. The guy single handedly carried ACM for 2 years even when injury prone after 2007 UCL win. I don't see why he can't do it again? Nesta & Inzaghi have over come severe injuries with ACM, so why not Kaka? He will be at home rite?

One more thing, for people who say Kaka would be a flop because history is not on his side like $heva case etc, well there is away the first time for something to happen new.

To hell with all other discussions, just imagine this:

One of AC Milan's all time loving sons is possibly coming home back. How can you not be happy to see him in red & black with the number 22 again? This is AC Milan we are talking about & Kaka is not even 30 yet One reason why some have doubts over Kaka's return is possibly because of the fact that Kaka was the best in the world in his time at AC Milan. Maybe they just expect to see the same #1 Kaka. Let just be realistic & hand over that title to little Messi followed by Critiano, Robben, Iniesta etc. Maybe not the former #1 Kaka, but still he could be the deciding factor for ACM to go long way in the UCL.

One recent relative example: Robben was injured before the World Cup, rite? The Dutch still decided to gamble & took him to the tournament. When he returned, the Dutch just stepped up to a different class & almost...... almost won the World Cup if he had gone down in the final ....

For those who claim Ibrahimovic is the focal point of ACM's attack, I just want to warn them. Be-careful what you wish for. This guy simply can't score in the knockout stages of the UCL. Don't believe me? Check the statistics.

I think all the talk about Cesc to Milan was just an invention by deluded fans and exasperated by certain posters who claimed insider knowledge. Those posters are being called out/trashed on the other site and rightly so. The person on this site (gregapenny) obviously doesn't have the balls to come back here. (Or maybe he's having lunch with Galliani talking about plan B, ie Mr. Y)
