Marco prefers Ronnie to Kaka (google translated)

He said recently: "Kaka is no longer what it once was" chaos and unleashed a large media. The award of the Rossoneri striker Marco Borriello was passed around the world, even to the Madrid. Kaka meanwhile endorsed the idea that journalism was more a stretch than anything else. A distance of time by those words, Borriello back to thunder by endorsing a full dual-out operation Kaka, Ronaldinho-in:"The stronger the Milan with Ronaldinho and Kaka than in recent years?" I choose always Ronaldinho. Over and beyond the assists, I love him as a person and for me is like a brother. Just look into his eyes to see that has a sensitivity beyond the ordinary. I would not change with any other player in the world ...".

borriello really let me down today on several occasions..we could have very easily won this match, from goals by borriello and Hunte...sure hope our finishing gets worked on from both our strikers, or else we will stay in the same boat we have been in for a min. now..

+1, that is the same what I think

I was so pissed off because of him yesterday, I couldn't believe that he is that selfish, idiot, that cost us two points. :mad:
We could've decided the match when he had chances to pass to Hunter, who was in a much better position to score, instead he only thought of himself and that he needs to score because of his NT place, selfish idiot!!
I normally like him but for that I would like to bench him against ManU, he needs to learn to not be that selfish and pass to others when they are in a better position.

honestly seeing the replay again, I kinda think it was more of he fucked up his finishing rather than too selfish. Well he is selfish but, seeing the he's position is actually as free as Hunt, I can't really name any striker who wouldn't shoot himself. Not trying to defend his selfishness (but he is a striker, they are teach to be selfish), but the fact is IMO he fucked up his finishing :mad:, Sheva would not pass too but he'll score, even Hunt would not pass but I think he should score too. He should have blast it, rather than trying to place the ball!!

You said it yourself, Sheva would've probably scored it, Borriello more than likely wouldn't, he ain't clinical simple as that, so if there's someone better placed (cause regardless of anything, Huntelaar was better placed than him) he should pass it instead of shooting, time for him to know his limitations instead of making them obvious.

personally I think borriello is getting a lot more hate than he deserves. I know a lot of people wanted to see 'bori-hunt' partnership but it doesn't take a rocket scientist to know that was NOT gonna work. Neither r very technically skilled, great passers or hold much vision. Both are lead strikers (in different ways)

IT's absolutely ridiculous people who say he's selfish and doesn't pass though. He sets up pato and even seedorf quite a bit. MUCH more than huntelaar... playing support striker/making decisions on the run is just different than CF where he's often back to goal. He's out of position.

honestly, seeing the replay again I don't think Borriello position is worse than Hunt..that's my point, rather than raving if he should not pass as it would be better to judge him for poor finishing as I can guarantee no striker would have pass the ball anyway in borrie's position. He do have a great position considering he can still adjust his footing and even pick a spot (look at his shooting, he doesn't blast it but sort of pass it)

there is a difference between passing to a midfielder or a winger and someone with whom you are in direct competition w/ for the CF spot

LOL. This should be a bannable post


are you actually impyling he didn't pass to huntelaar cause of positional competition? Thats most immature/******** argument i've ever heard.



And btw, newsflash. If he assists huntelaar he gets creditted too

Really? Cause he has ONE assist this entire season. Stop making excuses for him. He's either selfish or dumb. He had the chances to pass it to someone who was in better position than he was and he decided to instead make an awful shot each time.

Even Kaka, who would make those tight angle shots all the time would often pass it to the player who's wide open in the box just because you don't want to risk fucking it up. Boriello decided he didn't want to do that and in doing so fucked it up for the whole team, multiple times. He plays like he's out there for himself, and not the team. If he had the skill to pull that kind of self-righteousness off, that'd be fine, but he doesn't. IMO he should warm the bench for a few matches.

questionable he even had a better shot. He had a good angle. He took the shot. Missed, oh well. GET OVER IT. Huntelaar also missed a point blank header. It happens. Neither Hunt or Boriello are world class or by any means perfect strikers....

Yes I think that factors in.

you dont think that it is possible that he doesnt want Hunter to score so he continues to start? seriously? I think that is highly naive of you

I'll get over it when we win the league, if we don't, I'll know at least one performance to place part of the blame on. I never said they were WC or perfect, but if you think his chances were at scoring from those opportunities were just as good as if had passed it, I'd suggest watching the highlights over.

If you think those are my conspiracy theories you are sadly mistaken my friend. Maybe Borriello's fauxhawk has your panties in a bunch, but I think we have some straight guys here who'll actually make objective calls on his performances.

good God, not defending anyone here but after seeing the replay, Borri's position is as good as a striker can get :head: not even Huntelaar would've pass the ball in that position. It's not the selfishness that bothers me, is the poor finishing!!:head:
trust me if you ever join a football club and play as a striker, your coach would kill you if you don't shoot :o been there, done that

in that situation u don't have to be a wc striker to understand that hunt is in a better position than you that your angle is a lot smaller than hunts and that his chances of scoring are far better than yours.I like borri for the work he puts on the field and that he really tries but that was one lousy decision he wanted all the glory for himself u could see it in his eyes.I'm not saying that we did not win cause of him cause hunt missed one hell of a chance but borri there should have passed i think he would've gain a lot more credit if he did pass than for he trying to score.If he passed this does not mean hunt would automatically score but it would have been a really great opportunity

as good as a striker can get ?? FFS he can't score to save his life. If I was Borrielo and I know how much I suck I would give it to Huntelaar. Ofcourse Huntelaar wouldn't have passed the ball, because he would have scored that.

Also Borrielo sometimes is in way better positions but decides to put the ball down instead of shooting and taking it back to Pato or whatever. He clearly doesn't like Huntelaar because he is a threat to his starting position.

I don't think he is selfish overall, but he was in that play, and he was dumb there, but well who knows, maybe for the ManU game he'll be a heroe.

wrong. Conspiracy theory. He's trying to ruin milan from the inside. Paid by Moratti (obviously)





some people are ridiculous lol. Actually saying he won't pass cause of competition. Garentee you 90% of second strikers, Pato, sheva included woulda shot that. Maybe they would have made it, maybe not. No one ever claims borriello was mr. clinical

If it wasn't for that huge man crush you have on him, you would've notice that before. ;).

Yeh but Borriello in a lot of occasions with even better chances would not shoot and rather put the ball down and pass back just like I said before. If he likes to do that in such crucial occasions why didn't he do it this time with Huntelaar ? knowing at least this time it was reasonable to do that.

Hes not selfish. Hes just super slow. He looked @ hunteaar at first but took 2 much time and by than hunt had already someone running behind his back. He had no choice but to shoot. Borri just needs to work on his speed with the ball and maybe try shooting with his right here and there. Thats the only thing preventing him from being WC imo.

I actually don't blame him for not passing the ball to Hunt (who wasn't all that open anyway), but for ridiculous choice of shot - he saw Burdisso sliding in front of him and should have shot high and into far corner, like any world-class striker would do. If he had missed trying that, I wouldn't blame him. But this was just plain stupid decision and we see that quite often from Borri.
Also that shot in 1st half after Dinho's assist is just unforgivable :head:
