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.
