WE'RE LOOKING FOR A GREAT NAME
7/16/2007 12:38:00 PM
Milan administrator Adriano Galliani revealed the players which are being targeted by the club in this transfer campaign. Five big names and a possible surprise, Milan are working in the shadows.

Some people may be asking themselves: "Are Milan a part of this transfer campaign?" The answer of vice-president Adriano Galliani came on the columns of today's edition of daily sports paper "La Gazzetta dello Sport": "The excellent subscription campaign shows the fans have trust in us. We want to win during the spring and not in the summer. The team is already very strong, but it's true we want to buy another great player.

EtoÃ¢â‚¬â„¢o, Ronaldinho, Drogba, Shevchenko, and Pato: "I cannot mention the names of the candidates for respect to their clubs, but let's proceed in order. As far as Shevchenko is concerned, I don't feel like making a lower offer to Chelsea. If they want to sell him they will tell us and the same goes for Drogba, who at the moment is not on sale. Ronaldinho and Eto'o are still waiting to become European citizens, while Pato is a champion in the making, but to us is worth as much as the other four."

The sixth option: "Yes, there is a sixth player we are interested in. He does not have European citizenship, but I will not say who it is even under torture. But he's a remote option. If someone comes, it will be a non-EU citizen. Or anyway someone who has this status at the moment and will perhaps be a EU citizen by 31 August."

In attack we are well covered: "We have four strikers: in alphabetical order Gilardino, Inzaghi, KakÃƒÂ¡, and Ronaldo. On Pippo I would like to say this: I'm happy for him because he lives for football. He does not go out at night after a certain day, he cares about eating well. He's a baby, not 33 years old: he will keep playing a long time."

Oliveira? Disappointment, failure, or a lost bet?: "I would not be so negative. Four Spanish teams have requested him: that means his qualities are not in discussion. We loaned him to Zaragoza because he will be able to show what he's worth there. In a year we will see."

Gourcuff's renewal: "It was a strategic choice, a demonstration of faith. I understand the psychology of certain players and I've had the impression that Gourcuff thinks he's not part of the French national team yet because he doesn't play enough with Milan. With Ancelotti we have decided not to buy any midfielders and count on him. In our plans Gourcuff could also play in the role of Gattuso and Ambrosini."

The KakÃƒÂ¡ saga: "We are not buying him again: we are adjusting his contract to the new reality. In 2003 KakÃƒÂ¡ was the third number 10 of Milan after Rivaldo and Rui Costa. After that his growth was exponential. I have not talked to him, but I am completely calm and I have fixed an appointment with his father for the days following the reunion of the team: the contract will be prolonged and improved. KakÃƒÂ¡ is happy, he's playing in the most title-winning club in the world. He and all the Milan players know that their annual salary is based on their performances and their role within the squad."

There...made it...and right in the middle of another Dida debate...still rate him, he still makes mistakes but more or less makes up for them...The only keepers I'd take over him are Buffon, Cech and Reina...maybe Casillas because of his age, but no one else...not VDS (this guy has committed more mistakes in one week than Dida has in the whole season), not Amelia and certainly not Doni...
He's been injured quite a bit this season; hopefully he gets back to his best for the coming season..
