Summer Mercato 2011

Your argument is sound.
BUT according to your theory, I think even Silva and Nesta are expendables if money is well spend.

My point is not saying Milan can't survive without Ibra, but rather how a lot of you are turning against any player the moment someone else is picking up the slack for him. As stated earlier, it started with Sheva when Pippo and JDT were scoring in 2003, then Pato just THREE games ago and now Ibra, Heck some even want to give up on Nesta when he was struggling abit in mid season. Maybe I am being too harsh on some of your opinions and views, but for crying out loud, we are Milan fans and Milan fans got to have more class than that.

You can argue that you want Ibra to be gone b/c he has not been performing since Jan.11 or being stupid for getting sent off again after suspension; but don't say his price tag is not justify or that he disappears in big games or that he needs the team to play around him or he slows down the team play.....As none of you were saying that when he was leading Milan to victory after victory on his shoulders.

Lastly, he might not have great stats since Jan, but he has been working hard on the pitch.

When Pato was not scoring THREE GAMES ago, some of you wanted him to be sold for 50mil, as your arguments were, he is injury prone, and make stupid decisions, does not play for the TEAM, and that he can never be THE MAN for Milan like IBRA.
For all those who began to say Ibra costs too much and that he production had been bad since Jan., I really don't recall any of you saying that in Jan, or Feb or March or THREE GAMES ago.
Kept saying Ibra is a UCL flop, but lets look at stats, Ibra got 4 of the 7 goals Milan scored in this year CL. While the other 3 were scored by Pippo, 2 in 1 game, and Dinho. Not sure about you guys, but it were not for Ibra 4 goals, I am pretty sure Milan would have been eliminated in the EUROPA CUP, as they would have not qualify for UCL to the next round.
IF Milan did not qualify for the knockout stage of UCL, I am pretty sure we all will be discussing whether or not MIlan can keep hold of their stars instead of wondering which stars they can sign in the summer.

You just can't say "If there were no Ibra's goal, Milan would not... etc". It is just like saying "If Ibra were not playing, we could go to quarter final since he was flop in Champions League".
We don't know what would happen with Milan in CL if Ibra didn't make goal or didn't play. Ibra could be not a flop in CL but he is still not a word class decider (like one single goal from few chances) like Sheva, Izaghi or other strikers in Champions League. Just like Pato who still find his way to be that kind of striker. We don't have yet the type of word class striker (Inzaghi is still here but I am not sure if he is still that type of player considering his age).

I don't want Ibra leaves but he keeps playing like in his last games, there is no sense to keep him. 3 games ban after coming back from same ban is product of ridiculous attitude. When he played great, it is very normal many people forget his weakness but when he almost did nothing or only did little, what came out should be the rest of what he didn't do well.

I am only making a point by stating Ibra pretty much carried Milan this year in CL. He did score more than 50% of Milan goals in UCL this year.
