7 mil?? is he worth it? better than Taarabt for 5 mil?

Well actually its 5 million (On 2 years) + 2 million in bonuses . But yeah he will be worth every penny. Gr8 player, still young , he can play Lw-Rw-Am-Lcm-Rcm . Very flexible and smart player. He and baselli were atalanta's big players. Inter were tracking him for so long but since they couldint release guarin, we got him. :thumbsup:

Just spell out the word "great." Why do you choose this one random word to abbreviate in such a stupid way? I've seen you do this a couple times now too.

Some posters on this forum are really bizarre in their diction and I don't quite get why.

Messi for free isn't better than Drake for 5 million.

Honest Q, I don't follow Atalanta.

If he's as good as some say he is, why did Atalanta sell so cheaply? I mean G called and in 10 minutes they agreed on a 7m fee? I read that last season they asked for 15, how come they accept less now?

Out of contract soon, unhappy, wants upgraded contract, bad season?

They needed cash immediately because they bought Gomez from Metalist( he played at Catania before) 5 millions which is a big sum for us and they needed to recover this sum in this window. So they lower their demands.

As with every Galliani "Italian talent", I guess we'd have to wait and see it on the field.

Seems like no one knows is main position...not pointing specifically at this one, but I like that philosophy of buying players to play a position that's their 2nd or even 3rd position... Sometime they don't even play that position.

Still in denial though I see.

Why not? Because it's dumb and way too random. :|

This is dumb and way too random.^^

Decent player with little creativity. He wont solve our creavity problems in midfield. Good for rotation role for wingers if we signed him for back up El Shaarwy.

We are an interesting club, we cant sign any decent CM with some creativity, while we spend 11 m euros for third choice striker or 7 m euros for second choice winger.

I don't watch Atalanta but I know they have good midfielders, Cigarini for ex. did 102 passes in the first week of Serie A, more than other midfielders did.

And yes Bonaventura asked from Atalanta to be sold, Inter, Milan and Fiorentina were interested, so he said he is ready for a big club.

Inzaghi asked to buy Bonaventura, Galliani said this. He is the coach and he know what he want and he know what to do with Bonaventura.

He's not very creative, but he knows how to bring the ball forward and defends well, very hard worker. Think of him as Nocerino, only with skills and brain.

Pretty much

If we signed, say... Grenier for 12m, people would be all impressed like ''wow, we are finally improving our midfield''.
If Grenier was signed for 7m, people would be saying hes shit, or lazy or whatever because there's no other explanation why he went for so cheap.

This place.. instead of being happy you got him for such a good price, conspiracy theories are being drawn up.

Exactly. Even :g: said in an interview that if we signed Lopez for 10 million everyone would fap over him, but cause we got him for free, he's just OK.

Bonaventura: I have been waiting for a chance like this for a long time and Milan are the best club to make the most of such a chance. I was so happy on Monday and with all that has happened in such a short space of time I think it is only normaly to be a little moved by everything. I spoke to Inzaghi on the phone immediately after signing and he wished me well. It was great to come here to Milan, meed Galliani and wear this shirt. It is a dream come true. I am an attacking midfielder, I can play as an outside midfielder in a three man midfield or even as a wide forward in a three pronged attack. I am willing to do what the team and steff need of me.

Thats what I was saying.

Hope this guy can become a decent CM.

Inter fans rate him because he had a great game against them but I dont rate him as much as a winger

Maybe he would be a good CM but we shouldnt expect too much from him. if he overperforms great.

He kills Inter any time they play them
