if we get Honda + we have Balo and maybe a fit Robinho - i think it won't be a problem to scorea against weak teams
last season we had the creativity problem in midfield... we had no connection between midfield and attack, no trequartista... Honda should solve this problem

but anyway, i think Niang will be first on the list of getting chances, and Petagna will get some only if Niang screwes up like last season

I am not convinced if we don't get a quality CM. Just like you said, we had/have creativity problem in midfield. If we play with trequartista, the problem is still there except Saponara and/or Honda could play in CM position and they play well there.

If we get Honda as trequartista an a quality CM than I am comfortable to wait the best game from Milan under Allegri.

Yeah, the midfield is still our weakest spot.
imho, the best formation for us with the current squad would be 4-2-3-1, which would have SES/Roby/Niang/Ljajic on the wings and Honda in the center, ahead of Monto-DeJ and behind Balo.
The fullbacks would have a lot of work, but considering we are good on this part, it would be ok.

So this is officially milans only right winger with a left foot? I like these kind of right wingers. Both niang and saponara are limitied since they are both right footed. Their game is heavily limited to running down the flank and crossing meh.....

Ronin · Jul 15, 2013

I think Robson is the only one who can use both feet quite well

ladro · Jul 15, 2013

He sticks mostly to the left. I think he scored his very first goal for milan from the right thoe after he didnt really do much on that side. Just like most of milans wingers he prefers to drift from the left. So yeah he is decent with both feet just obviously prefers to stick to the left. Even niang if i saw correctly played alot on the left now in milanello when theres no el sharawi.

De Jong, Montolivo, Poli, Boateng, Cristante, Muntari
i dont think mid is bad.

He is Ronaldo-like (R9) but without technique.

You mean face or physically?

Physically I see him has similarities to Vieri, big size of body with strong feet on the ground.

His face looks indeed a bit like real Ronaldo.

Wake the Dead · Jul 24, 2013

He is surprisingly fast :eek:

irkuysm · Jul 24, 2013

Good enough,but why i see him lack of fitness or stamina whereby in the last 5 minutes he showed tiredness although didnt play full game.

benjamin · Jul 24, 2013

Dude, it's only the 3rd friendly of the season, and the 1st against a decent team

young player alway do. they lack speed and stamina at highnest level but in future they are used with it. this period they are working very hard in pre-season work loads.
good enough! definitely!! its reason why milan extended his contract to 2018 (with Pro contract) (Ganz junior, berretta, zigoni... only Young contract)

Curupira · Jul 24, 2013

He looked good, don't know if we will roll the dice on him with Pazzini out.

belloefamoso · Jul 24, 2013

Proud milanello's product!!!!!

from Scirea tour to Trofeo Tim, great Bryan, Andrea, Mario (Piccinocchi)

belloefamoso · Jul 24, 2013

review his goal in primavera team, the fourth goal is impressed!!! he driblled through 4 player to score!!!

This Is Milan · Jul 24, 2013

I think he'll be able to contribute to the first team pretty soon. Unlike other young players he won't have that much difficulty with adjusting to Serie A defenders.
With such a tank-like physique even veteran defenders will have a hard time trying to bully him. Very Vieri-esque.
