Milan didnt permanently sign Crespo, they loaned him... a pity, you rely on other club's players do your work...
what kind of border-line retarded theory is that?
So then Nedved who came from another club is technically also another club's player...difference is they purchased him?
So if Crespo is purchased this summer by Milan (as it looks to be) his real season will only count NEXT YEAR?
Yeah makes a lot of damn sense there Zlatty.
More over, in case you didn't notice, Crespo barely played at Chelsea and everyone called him finished last season. In addition, everyone called Ancelotti a fool for having Milan sign Crespo rather than a young defender. Guess that is why he is where he is and everyone else is criticizing from the outside.

Seriously tho, I personaly am not a fan of big clubs loaning players in, I'd rather invest in a player I know I can keep next season.
Irrelevant. Its the same thing as signing a player to one-two years to plug in the weak points of the team: Pancaro, Cafu, Zebina, etc. Basically the fact that the TEAM does not own the rights to him doesn't make you sleep at night (so to speak) but if they straight out owned him then it puts him on a different level?
Irrelevant because usually if they succeed in their 'loan' year the team will do MUCH to buy him.
COME ON ZLATTY.
