Summer mercato 2012

[WCmilan]

I'm impressed with both Didac and De sciglio, i think our managements primary reason for not investing in a left back is because first off Acerbi can play CB and LB, not so sure if he's any good at LB. De Sciglio really impressed in his few appearances, where Didac REALLY impressed for a full season but with Espanyol. Antonini is always going to be antonini, he had some bad games,some okay games then some like against barca where he'd be rated one of the best LBs in the world had he played like that consistently. Emmanuelson is also an interesting project at LB if in fact that's where Allegri plans to play him, he's just over all an interesting player. He's got the pace, he's got the dribbling, he's got some defensive characteristics, he has a good left footed shot and cross, I rarely see him get taken off the ball (although he's not neccesarily a strong player) .. I think we should keep urby no matter what, he's a great squad player and has had some spectacular games/goals with Urby it's just a matter of him finding a position that best suits him and staying consistent at it.


In our "Mr.X" saga for a midfielder I think it'll be Strootman, since it's confirmed negotiations will take place when the euros are done (now that netherlands are out maybe sooner?) Anyhow, other solid link is Sahin, I doubt it will happen but who knows I predict a loan+option to buy type deal, also we've been linked with Lass diarra from madrid.. not a signing I'd like, I'd prefer both sahin or strootman over him but hey I wouldn't complain anyways.

Anything can happen really, Strootman is really the only player who has any concrete link with us but for all we know we might end up signing someone whos been gone from any links in the media with us like ganso or something
