OK then. 
Boateng does worry me with his tendency to get injured at such a young age, but I don't agree with you "less impact" comment. Despite his frequent absences, I feel that he had established himself a status only slightly below Thiago Silva and Ibrahimovic. That seems quite evident from the way that Allegri used him (e.g. "saving" him for the big games in the season).
Anyway, I don't think it is appropriate to compare Flamini to Boateng yet. He has made no or little contribution in his four years with Milan, and also refused to play LB when the coach asked him to. Last season, he was out for 32 weeks. Unlucky, yes, but again, no contribution. The goal against Novara was nice but meant nothing in real.
Now that he stays, I hope that he redeems himself and be useful. He does have some good quality that may benefit the team, and I am hoping that we resigned him because of Allegri not just because of Galliani. One year contract extension is not bad at all, particularly at a much reduced salary. But he still has to prove himself, something that he failed to do in the past four long seasons.
