Thiago Silva Thread

GALLIANI: "If Rossel asks me about Thiago Silva I'll politely tell him that the player is not on sale"

If Nesta's fit for the Barca game then I doubt we'll miss him badly. Abate, MVB, unfit KPB, Aqua and Binho however..

We are gonna miss him BADLY

Nesta is just returning from injury and very unfit. That coupled with his age is a bad combination

Plus neither Nesta nor Mexes are speed demons, so we are likely to get burnt a lot without Abate and Silva

Told ya

Don't tell him politely. Tell him to fuck off.

[r0ckcold]

so silva wont be fit for second leg either?

 

[badboybjörn]

That would be so sweet tho. Imagine TS turning up on camp nou together with bommel and abate and a more fit prince/binho. Wed be favorites! Well or atleast not 10 to 1 as the current bookies are offering

 

[crazy4milan]

goal.com is reporting we will make him captain next year in order to help keep him from joining Bartha or Madrid

Because it proved to be a very successful idea with Shevchenko and Kaka! :-/. I don't like Abbiati as captain, but I dunno how I feel about Thiago wearing the armband specially for such a pathetic reason. He is next in line after the senatori's so no issues there (if that's the excuse I have no problems with it) but to prevent him from leaving? Argh, that's a sign he shouldn't.

Pato is ahead of him by that count.

Silva as Captain

100% win record so far

 

[Sage]

Pato is ahead of him by that count.

ahead of silva? nope


the game where silva started as a captain was against chievo, pato started the game as well.

 

[crazy4milan]

Pato is ahead of him by that count.

In terms of time he is...in terms of personality/leadership, even Nocerino/Urby are ahead of him (at the end of the day both have to come in account in here, Milan's been lucky that all of the current senatori are leaders in one way or another, so that hasn't been an issue, but now it has to matter).

I'm just talking about the practice of giving the captaincy to the most Milan-experienced guy in the team. After the senatori, comes Pato.

But of course, that practice will be broken this time and it will be Thiago Silva only - due to multiple reasons.

yep

I hope pato becomes vice captain, only because it would really piss off his haters

Technically by caps after the senatori-

Bonera- 140
Pato- 135
Silva- 119
Abate- 101
Antonini- 97


If we went by minutes played, it's probably Thiago cause almost everyone of his are a full 90....

To be fair, I never thought Sheva had the personality of a captain or that of a leader. He was one of the finest goalscorers of his generation. If Pato somehow picks the piece of his career back and becomes what he has always promised to become, no reason why we won't offer him the captaincy.

Of course, this is all hypothetical. As of now, Thiago Silva is clearly being set up for the role. He knows that Galliani is dangling this carrot out to him, and if that makes him stay for a couple of years more, excellent.

Our practice is not caps, but the time for which they've been at Milan. Gattuso would have naturally been ahead of Ambro had the practice been no. of caps.

Bonera is still half a season ahead of Pato I suppose.

 

[Senatore_M84]

Bonera is still half a season ahead of Pato I suppose.

a season and a half.

Bonera came in 2006. Pato came in fall 2007, but couldn't play till 2008


You're not a real milan fan. Any real milan fan would know the day, minute, second we signed our defensive savior, daniele bonera. GFTO

A full season, Bonera capitano NOW.

 

[Ash]

Silva will become captain because he is a leader and was trained by two of the finest leaders Milan ever had (Nesta and Maldini)

In fact, he is already starting to act like a leader considering how he organises the defense and berates teammates who fuck up (his rants at Abate are legendary )

He is the perfect person to usher in a new era for Milan

 

[Australiano1980]

Pato is ahead of him by that count.

thiago said that is honour be the captain of milan, even knowing that pato and antonini have more games than him for milan.

so obviously for the board.. antonini and pato dont have any influence over the group.

 

[HeroMaldini]

wtf-how is there no update here on his injry!!? he able to play 2nd leg of barca game or what!

 

[MilanReality]

you joking?

 

[luke07]

he is high on somethin

 

[MilanSpecialist]

thought they said T.33 is gone a month..so to whomever asked if he would be back for the return leg, there should be your answer...hoping for a nice recovery tho, because if we advance past barca, he will be greatly needed..until then mexes will have to hold us down.

 

[Goldfinger68]

Would be awsome to know our real chances, or see how we would preform with full team against the midgets. we will miss u Thiagoo

 

[Costanza]

Mexes fucked up big time, missed you a lot.

 

[Ragazza]

silva, you were sorely missed in the CL games get well soon please!!

 

[Benz_1803]

I wonder if he reconsider his desire to playing with the so called best player
ever after yesterday incident?

 

[Goodfella]

He wasn't missed at all in the 1st leg, but we needed him badly in the 2nd since we used a high backline.

So..when's he back?

 

[adriancg]

Baby come back.
