Thanks Jay. Knowing the fact that we have only Seedorf as creative midfielder is worrying. He played well as left CM only in the second part of the season (not the first games of the second part of the season IIRC but like last 10 games or so when he was like having new extra energy, something he never showed with Milan before except when he was young).
Seedorf is old, inconsistent and we don't have his backup. We only have a winger, Emanuelson and playing a winger as left CM won't give much benefit for our play. From Primavera we also don't have player who could take role as 3rd. or 4th. backup (watching Fossati's last games still makes me think that he is still not ready to play with senior team, he still lack of self confidence). With this situation, Montolivo is very welcome. It is better to have 1 more creative player (even not a great one) than stuck with our current rosters. Not a good mercato but better than nothing!
