Well according to Milannews. Allegri has decided to keep Odu to play as Pato's backup after his good performances against Varese and Juventus.



This Is Great News For Us... We Will Save Money & Bring Along Our Youth. There IS definite potential in this kid. I hope He Get Extended Minutes Against All T he Weaker Sides... ( Brescia, Cesena, Lecce etc...)

this kid seems to have good characteristics and could very well be a promising talent for us in the coming terms..he has good speed and pace on the ball, like pato..he needs a little more ball control skill and a few other things and could be what we need for a pato sub..

Him and verdi have the most raw talent I have seen from the youngsters but I think he is the cream of crop, still rough around the edges but still exciting to watch.

i dont think that loaning Oduamadi out would be a good idea. it may be true that he'll get more minutes in another team, but he'll also get minutes right here when we play against weaker teams/want to rest dinho or pato/when we are 4-nil up and can afford giving him playing time. and him and verdi are our depth for dinho and pato in the 4-3-3 so there's no way we should loan him out. he's been decent in the pre-season. it's good enough for me. we should have faith in our young guys. it would pay off. it beats having mancini

:star:

And might I add: when he makes minutes with our team, he will also get used to our team.

If we loan out Odu, what are we gonna do? Play two poachers every now and then?

loaning odu wouldn't be bad, but i'd rather keep him. i would be more disappointed if we loaned verdi, merkel, or strasser as they can give quality to the team now... odu seems very unrefined still and not ready, but i want to see him incorporated a little this year for sure.

so do i, but i'm not playing for milan. odu is a bright prospect, but he should either play primavera this season or be loaned(NOT co-owned!) and then brought back when he gets better control of the ball. i have good hopes for him, but I think players like verdi, merkel, and strasser are ready to contribute NOW, whereas odu is not yet.

Odu is working hard in the games, he gets into good scoring positions and also makes many runs forward. The only problem is his ball control, he needs to improve it because he loses the ball too often and also didn't finish the good chances he had on Sunday. There he needs to improve, but otherwise he is a big talent and when he gets better with ball control then he can be a great player. In our team are many players that he can learn from in terms of ball control and finishing chances, Pato and Dinho surely can help him there.

I think we should loan him to Foggia, he would have a chance to win a starting spot in Zdeněk Zeman's 4-3-3 and I think it would be great for his development

Lega Pro great for development? Even I don't rate him that low.

LOL, why should he be loaned? He is the direct backup for Pato.

I rate Verdi but he's kinda hurt and physically weak and younger. It's not lock Verdi is ready yet.... If Verdi establishes himself as viable backup in 2010-11, then odu can go on loan in january, but god knows the idea of huntelaar/borriello combo uptop when pato is out makes me want to puke.

BTW he has improved during pre-season, and had awesome assist v. juve. Lets show him faith

Like said before this kid has most natural ability and with proper guidance can be one of the top attacking players in serie A anbody requesting him to leave the club is a fool, his finally3rd pentration/confidence on the ball is unmatched by anybody in the primvera. You people need to get real.

I saw pace and desire from this kid. (against Catania) I hope he continues to improve.

this kid always has had shown great ability with his pace and speed..needs to work on some other things and will be good coming off the bench..really wish he would have came on earlier tonight, then the 80+ min...

Stop looking in your toliet and/or mirror.

stop being offensive.I didnt mean to insult anyone.

What i meant was i saw 0 potential and was stupid move by allegri to substitute pippo especially at the end of the match.

Hopefully we sell him before other clubs catch on to the fact that he's not going to cut it in Serie A. Another overrated foreign youngster from our youth system.
