I'm very happy to have officially signed Flamini. To be honest, I never really thought this would actually happen when all of the rumors started circulating. At one point, it even looked as though Flamini would be joining Juventus, but luckily he thought twice about whether he would ever like to have any success outside of domestic competition and ultimately chose to join one of the two most successful clubs in history. I just hope that he can adapt to Serie A and fit in with the squad, but I'm confident that he has the quality to do so. Like everyone else has been saying, Pato and Flamini were two of the best moves made by G+B+B in a long time. I just hope that we are nowhere near finished with this transfer campaign.
I really hope that the next purchase we make will be a world class GK. All due respect to Kalac and Dida, one will never lead us to the top of Europe/Serie A and one is long past his prime. Either Marco Amelia or Frey would be perfect, IMO. Amelia would seem to be the more likely option as he currently plays for lowly Livorno and all of the other big teams in Italy already have 1st GK options that they are satisfied with. Amelia is young and could develop into one of the best keepers in the world if he were to join Milan, IMO. Frey is better than Amelia at this point (also older), but I think that it would probably be tougher to pry him away from Fiorentina than it would be to get Amelia from Livorno. Perhaps Frey will see that even in our worst season this decade, Milan was still able to finish ahead of his team in Serie A (hopefully) while taking the final CL spot. Either way, one of these two guys are a must, IMO.
We also need two or three defenders. The emergence of Bonera over the last couple of weeks really is a great sign for our future. I just hope that he can maintain the type of form he has had in the last several games. I would gladly welcome Zambrotta to the San Siro as I still believe that he is one of the best defenders in the world when in form. His versatility is also something that should never be underestimated. IMO, Zambrotta could provide 2 or 3 very good years for the Rossoneri. Dossena and/or Vargas are also players that I believe we should be all over during the summer campaign. Either one would make me really happy, but I'd love to sign both. Then all that is left to do is to find a quality CB for our defense and we'll be set. I'd love to see Barzagli, but I don't know if Palermo's owner would be willing to sell him to us.
Add someone like Gomez, Berbatov, Huntelaar, or Benzema as a striker and we would be one of the best teams in Europe once more.
All I know is that things are starting to look up for Milan: We've purchased two very young and talented players in less than a year!!!
