well pato isnt a known for penalty taking imo

Remember the GK is our beloved Dida Okmilan

And Pato... oh Pato... what the heck are you doing with your career...

I laughed at one comment on one of those videos (translating from Portuguese": You [Pato] let down a mediocre fanbase, but delighted the whole country".

Pato had so much more love (from the fans) than Dida, but Dida achieved so much more than Pato.

Thats his last season with Milan. He was one of our main players in 2003-2007. I thin to this day Dida has the record for longest period without conceding in CL. (2005)

Also the 2003 final. He did save everyone`s ass in that final.

You are kidding right? Abbiati is a poor man's version of Dida. Both are shot stoppers but Dida was simply much better.

Dida had that record for less than one season. Lehmann (Arsenal) broke it in 2005-06 (10 matches or something).

lol

try last 5 seasons.

every cross into our box made me switch channels for a bit cuz i couldnt bare to watch his failed attempts at grabbing the ball.

not to mention a blunder goal almost every game.



I could've strangled him with my bare hands after Leeds.

Leeds was 2001 (or 2000?), and he was loaned back to Brazilian. When he came back, he proved himself again. Until 2005, he was among the top 3 goalkeepers in the world. The firework incident hurt him psychologically, but still he was way better than Abbiati. Had he played instead of Kalac, we would not have been eliminated by Arsenal in 2008.

There is simply no goalkeeper that has never made a howler once in a while, but to claim that Dida was the worst in the history of football and deny his enormous contributions to Milan are laughable. Mind you that unlike Juventus, Milan history isn't known to have great goalkeepers (Buffon and Cudicini came to mind, but those were long time ago), and I would even go as far as claiming that Dida is perhaps one of the best goalkeepers in Milan history.

i hope youre not serious there xu Icon_lol2 cuz your post did make me laugh out loud Smile

are you telling me that dida's howlers were "once in a while" ?? i challenge you to name a GK for top clubs that has had more howlers than dida. lately abbiati is catching up, but he's still miles ahead of that clown.

dida is the worst regular first-11 milan player in the last 20 years or so that i've been following the club.

I don't know who laughed louder then. Smile

I have followed Milan for 25 years, and I can tell you that in my opinion, Dida is better than every other Milan goalkeeper in this period (including Galli and Rossi). I am very serious.

I understand it can be a matter of personal opinion, so I will leave it here. If anyone else wishes to jump in and take side, feel free to do so. I am curious what other people think. Smile
