Serie A Review - 12/13

[nehe11]

I hope we end 3rd, but it would be very hard, 5th or 6th is more reasonable.

Boateng is not half the player he used to be.
Pato is not a player anymore.
Nocerino doesn't score anymore.
Pazzini and Bojan aren't scoring enough.
if we can solve those four problem i'm confident we can arrive 3rd but we must get something usefull in the market.

For De Sciglio iz important that he improve (cit.) Anyway Abate is injured now and i've no idea about what Allegri will do, Abate is faster, De Sciglio make better cross, both are decent defender

And don´t forget Abbiati.....Antononi being injured is a good thing for Milan. Montolivio is finding his feet in Milan and been playing well in the games I´ve seen, good signing and he was free.
A club like Milan should not depend on a 20 year old to carry there attack, Faraone has done very well but he needs help, you need to buy a striker who can give you 20goals per season.

He has scord 10 league goals in 14 appearances this season, that is a ratio that works out at closer to 30 than 20 across an entire campaign. Another point that is worth considering is that Juventus won the league last season, but did n't have a player in the top 10 goal scorers and when Milan won the 2010-11 season their best placed player was joint 8th in the list; Zlatan, Pato and Robinho all with 14 goals, and the top two overall goal scorers in the league were Di Natale and Cavani who played for the 4th and 3rd placed teams respectively, but of course they finished 12 and 18 points off of the leaders Milan .

So that would suggest that in Serie A it is better to have a number of goal scorers in the team that get between 10-15 a season rather than one stiker that gets 20 plus goals in the same time period. This is made even more convincing by the fact that when Zlatan fully emerged as "the main man" in his second season whilst he scored more goals himself with 28, no other Milan player got in the top 10, whilst the minimum goals needed to get in was 1 goal lower (13 rather than 14) and Milan collected two less points than in the previous season and finished 2nd compared to 1st in the season before.

There´s a difference in quality between the Juventus strikers and Milan strikers. Imo Juventus worst striker as far as goals go would be a starter in Milan 1st 11. A club of Milans stature should not depend on Shaarawy. Zlatan and Cavani are reliable strikers with alot of experience and they are good enough to carry teams, nobody including Shaarawy himself expected to score as many goals as he has done so far and if he diden´t then Milan would be in alot more trouble then they are now. That´s a problem imo to rely on somebody so young and inexperienced.

not motm, but he was one of the best. For sure his best game since now.

Where do you think you´ll end up this season? My guess would be 5th or 6th and De Sciglio had a great games yesterday, good for him maybe he´s ready to take Abates place who have been poor this season.

Both Nocerino and Boateng used Ibra's presence last year. He was providing a space for them, specially for Nocerino who's pretty limited player.

Juve has pretty average strikers, none close to world class.

Inter just gone 1-0 down to Parma. Not a very good game. I caught the end of Napoli vs. Cagliari before and it was quite exciting, two good teams.

 

[Tevez City]

Inter are looking like a mid-table club.

Yes they used his presence and they scored quite a few goals as well. Imo Juves strikers are better then average, they are good strikers who make good runs and can hold the ball up quite well. Milans strikers on the other hand are the definiton of average, the only one who´s pulling his weight is Shaarawy.

 

[LoveCity]

El Shaarawy is so good.

 

[bluemcr]

El Shaarawy is so good.

I know! Have we been linked with him? swap deal maybe with balo?
