MILAN, Amauri wants Rossoneri
08.05.2008 13.27 by Redazione TMW

Relationship broken between Amauri and Palermo: as predated yesterday by Tmw and written today by press, the player and his agent, Vittorio Grimaldi, think interested to Milan. But Rino Foschi is not agree and declares:" Amauri at 90 % will wear Juventus jersey next year: we have an agreement and there is still a street, we are not speaking with other teams. Don't interest me that does Grimaldi , we continue to speak with Juventus' executives: our thought don't change". Will be Juventus and Milan duty to make change things

And why buy just a poor, squad player? What's the point of buying a forward then? I will rather keep Palladino in that case. We have Iaquinta as a squad player. We need another star forward and I don't see Gilardino as that player.
I don't think we need a star forward, because he'll spend a lot of time on the bench. We either need a solid forward for a reasonable price, or a long term replacement for Trez.

I believe Gilardino would regain some confidence if he left Milan and he would start playing well again. He has some talent, just really has not shown it at Milan. If we were able to get him for cheap, i personally would be happy. Many people will disagree and tell me he sucks, but i believe he has potential still and just needs more motivation and confidence. I think he deserves a second chance, and personally if he comes to Juve, whats the worse that can happen, he sucks and just holds bench. If he starts playing well again then we have some good alternatives to Trez and DP.

That if Palermo fans think he's not a mercenary, it doesn't have to be true.
He proved with his attitude that he is not a mercenary. While we're at it, I think Zambrotta and Thuram should be well respected for what they have given to our club. Hundreds of great performances don't get erased overnight by few bad words in newspaper interviews. I prefer talking is done on the pitch.

Wrong. We have to be prepared in case of the worst for next season and bring in a new, great forward. I can agree we need a long term Trez replacement. Solid forwards are Iaquinta and Palladino and Gilardino is not better than any of them. So, he doesn't fit any of the bills.

Un-neccesary risk imo, buying Gilardino. Waste of time and money.

But even a mercenary can give hundreds of great performances.

Cannot possibly be more of a waste of time than this whole transfer saga with Amauri, or Milito last year, and that's why i said if we can get him cheap it would be good. But if we have to pay alot then it would indeed be stupid to risk it on a player who may possibly continue to play awfully.

Not sure if Palladino is better than Gila, but yeah, it's probably too much of a risk.

I don't know if your defintion of "mercenary" is same as mine. For me, a player who gives his all for somebody's shirt for a little bit more money is not a mercenary.

It would be a waste of time. Why are you people complaing about Secco then? You want quality players and you curse him for getting cheap and mediocre players and now the idea of signing that kind of a player is supported? I just don't get that logic. If we want quality, we need :money:

Firstly, Gila is way better then Palladino, get a grip.

Secondly, you might be right in saying its an unnecessary risk if we have other good options, but if we dont, and if he comes quite cheap as he should do, he would NOT be waste of money. He is better then Palladino in a big way, and he can be way more prolific then Iaquinta (way more talented goalscorer), in being backup for Trezeguet.


I dont want to be facetious, but you dont need to be nostradamus to think some of you being 100% exaggerated in how bad he is, will eat up your words just as how too many were ridicolously exaggerated in saying how bad Momo and Iaquinta would be.

Change of venue, a system like ours and other teams that gives service to a poacher like Gila (while Milans one has zero wingplay, and they are used to isolating their strikers, having Sheva type who is one man attack, not someone who needs service all the time, Trez would suffer a bit in their system who is very unfriendly to a paocher), and him gaining his confidence after picking up form (big reason of his failure is confidence, not ability), and I dont doubt you will be seeing a profilic goalscorer like the one of Parma again. Or if not entirely, still be way better then in Milan. I predict alot of people (not you perse) would be eating up their words then, by just saying he sucks and exaggerating like he is worst striker in calcio.


P.S I still prefer to sign Amauri because of his overall qualites that is more then a poacher. But in REASONABLE price, his attitude is annoying me already, but if he comes with a fair price, he would be the update we need.

:rofl2: I am loving these arguments: Gilardino is younger, Juve fan and was a great finisher at Parma and he is Italian.

Gilardino downright SUCKS! I can now see the standard of knowledge of current posters. Frankly, I lost any will to post in this thread when people think Gilardino is better than Amauri. Check that guys's post, Amauri is Brazilian and I hate him? WTF? Are you stupid or what? Amauri is a superior player any way you compare them. If you want to dump a great striker just because we would lose one of our fucking youngster who maybe won't even become a good player for that piece of useless shit Gilardino, be my guest. But please, don't ever say one bad word again about Secco. You criticise him yet you would turn Juventus into a circus with playres of Gilardino's calibre. I just hope our Board will not listen your advices. Morons....
I agree.Gilardino is very bad NOW.He WAS great some years ago but right now he sucks.Well, many can say that we will help him find his form again, like we did with Canna and Zanneti but what if this won't happen?It's not time for experiments, we need players that we are sure they will perform.
If Milan sign Amauri and they sell Gila to us i will feel robbed.Simple as that....

I want quality where we dont already have it, i.e majority of our defense, and a CAM. DP, Trez, Iaquinta, Palladino is good enough up front for at least one year, i just want to strengthen the more important areas first, then if we have left over $ we can buy a good striker. But i want to splurge on a good CAM most importantly, and also a defender (tho Ujfalusi for free would be fantastic).

When Amauri storms Serie A next season, I will remind you of this post. How can you call Amauri a waste is beyond me.
I do not believe he is a bad player though, thats the thing, i just think he is unnecessary for the fee and players we will lose to get him.

Edit : sorry for double post.
