Abate right back and DES left back will suffice for next season.

his ending contract is the main reason why we want to sell him
not because he didn't played enough

Main reason is that fat prick Raiola requesting a raise from 1.8 million to 3 million. Not worth it.
2-2.2 at most and he can stay. He shouldn't really be getting a raise tbh.

Really needs to leave so that DeS can prosper in the RB position. Its high time he chooses a flank. Whatever money we can get from Abate's sale could be used to fund an LB

My only question is why is Abate good enough for a star-studded team like PSG and the Nazionale but not good enough for Milan? I guess players will always have their haters.

Out for a walk.
Ibra wants his baby, and talked Raiola into shipping Abate closer to him. It has very little to do with whether PSG could use him. Abate's been off for two seasons now, so he should leave for 10+mil.

Agree with your assessment, sometimes in this forum, some people viewed internal players as fodder/not enough to play for milan, but when they play outside, will be categorized as solid players.

Although some Milan's player really trully a fodder though.

Abate is good, in my opinion, for the right coach

Either keep as a starter or sell for 15 mill.

He should not even be on the WC squad. The guy is a joke. How many assist does he have since joining Milan? 4 or something and 0 goals?

His crossing is not the problem atm IMO... it improved over the last 2 seasons
Its just how bad he is on the ball, his ''no look'' useless passes all the time. And he plays like a headless chicken at times

Then don't sell him. Simple.


And let him go for free next season?
Or giving him that 3M deal?

DeS has looked better at LB than RB so far in his career. That might change, but to this point he has been strongest on the left.

Abate is a rock solid player. He isnt a star, but he is a quality player and a top 3 RB in Serie A.

In my opinion Seedorf not playing him was by far his biggest mistake as a coach. For a team that lacked in talent, it makes no sense at all to not take advantage of the team's biggest strength. With Abate on the right and DeS on the left, Milan has the best pair of starting FBs in Serie A, and one of the strongest pairs of any club in Europe.

Hes fast, good in 1 v 1 and counter attack situations. Shit at everything else. Take 8M for him and be happy.

Average tackler. Gives a penalty or is skinned for position every big game.

Nope. None whatsoever. Has been nothing but average since he got injured in allegris second season.

Almost every derby loss since leonardo has had his name on it and i can always expect him to be responsible for one or two goals at nou camp. When he gets skinned for italy i dont mind though.

Any stats on who has given away most penalties in last 5 years for milan?
