How has Albertazzi been playing this season?
Stupid Serie A. From what I've seen.... Verdi, Fossati (and MErkel) are too good to be playing primavera. You could have made same case for Zigoni too..... but theres no where else for them to play......
Cagliari 1 - 3 Milan. Beretta, Verdi, and Pasini scored Milan's goals.
What you mean by that?

After the victories against Udinese and Chievo in the league and Cup in Italy against the Citadel, the Primavera Milan Cagliari taketh. The recovery of the 4 'day, young Rossoneri are needed at home rossoblù 3-1: the advantage of the Beretta 31', Martignoni answers to 7 'of the second half, but then we think the Verdi in the 16' and Pasini 40 ' give the three points the team Stroppa.

I just recalled that back in 2005 the AC Milan u18 team had come to India to play 3 friendly matches. Organized by Mr. Agostino Pinna, the consul general from Italy in India at that time. I had gone to see one match vs West Bengal u-18s (my state side)
Anyways Leonardo came with the team too and this was the squad which came for the trip.

Can someone tell me if any of these players are still playing for decent teams and/or have a decent future ahead of them? It'd have been great to watch a future start in action when he was 16/17
By the way we lost 2-1!! A bengali guy curled a beautiful freekick in after we took the lead and they scored again later.
I was wearing my Maldini jersey at the stadium and people were smiling at me on the way out with the "haha u loser look!" I was actually carrying an extra tshirt if we won.. the crowd in Calcutta can get rowdy!!
i remember this... i think Bayern youth team also visited India that year... and played in the IFA Shield (for non-indians... this is the 4th oldest football tournament in the world (started in 1893) after Scottish and English FA cups and the Durand Cup which is also played in India)
