And they're not signing Cavani. They haven't offloaded these two for 65 just to spend 50 of it on Cavani, with that many problems in their team left to fix. I see them bringing in a Dzeko or a Tevez for around 25-30, though.
They sold Sheva for what? 40-50M? They bought Oliviera I believe it was. :lol:
They sold Kaka for 60M...did they replace them?
Ibra and Silva gone for 70M? I don't think they'll adequately replace them. A majority of that will go to balancing the books IMO. I expect a 25M Dzeko/Tevez signing, and a 10M Ogbonna/Astori signing. 35M of that 70M spent to reinvest, 35M to be never seen again by the fans.

I think so too.

Anyway, at least they still have Nocerino.

I know one person who is extremely happy that Ibra went to PSG, and that would be Jack.


PSG just pissed away their chance at a Champions League trophy

The people who are questioning Milan's firepower without Ibrahimovic should remember that even if they don't sign a striker, a Pato-Cassano front two is very dangerous.

That's on the off chance that Pato can stay fit for any amount of time, of course.

Yeah, that's true. I'm just very happy to see Ibra go. He always had Serie-A by the balls. Best striker you could have in this league.

Pato is overrated, he's far from being great. As for Cassano, he's older and since his injury he never looked fit, he can't play 90 minutes.

They're attack line still isn't really that bad. Cassano, Pato, Robinho, ElS

I mean...Vucinic, Giovinco, Matri, Quag...we need some Jojo up in this bitch!

Ibrahimovic just beasted the small teams, he kept Milan around the top week-in, week-out. Milan need someone to come in and hit the ground running, or for someone else to step up. Ibra is such a physical beast he scared defenders, and he is strong mentally. There is no one around with his mix of physique and technique. They could go for a technical, energetic forward or a big tank like Carroll, but not that mix.

Still very inferior to Ibra-whoever.
I'm not sure.

Ibrahimovic in Italy was as much about his aura - and the effect it had on opponents and teammates - as his ability. That's not to say he's not an extremely talented player, mind.

That aura didn't intimidate good players, which is part of why Ibrahimovic is viewed as not performing in big games.

A Cassano-Pato front two could go a long way towards replacing Ibrahimovic in a strictly footballing sense, but they won't have that aura that allowed an Ibrahimovic team to effortlessly win game after game after game against the lesser sides in the league.
