Well, as Sergio stated I must hand it to those worthless Milanisti. They did us a favor that I was not expecting them to do, and hopefully Abbiati will recapture A LOT of that GOOD form he posessed before Dida made him take a seat on the bench. But I must say Milan was very nice to loan us another keeper after such an unfortunate event during the Berlusconi Trophy. Even though they are our supposed enemy, Milan still has a heart, it seems. Hopefully this won't be a deviation of "keeping friends close, keeping enemies closer."
Balzaretti? I have seen him play two times if I remember correctly, and he looked like a solid defender. Should be good cover for Cannavaro if Kovac is not available.
So is this the end to our transfer campaign, or does Moggi have one more surprise up is sleeve? Looking at the squad right now I don't think we will obtain anybody else, however we could still use a decent attacking midfield option to cover for Camoranesi and Nedved. It seems like the latter is on his way to another injury-plagued season, so we must prepare for the worse unfortunately.
