agree
The problem with milan players is their attitude. They lack fighting spirit, winning ambition and team compactness. Not to mention being slow and sluggish. New players wont solve the problem if this issue is not addressed. I think the team is okay. Only dat ronaldinho should be more serious. He should first be EFFECTIVE Before trying fancy!!!! Zambrotta should also show more commitment
BURLUSCONI SHOULD ONLY WORRY ABOUT RUNNING THE COUNTRY INSTEAD OF GETTING INVOLVED WITH THIS TEAM . I THINK HE SHOULD HAND THE TEAM OVER TO GULLIANI AND LET HIM DO THE JOB THE RIGHT WAY .... NOW THAT SAID WE DO NEED SOME NEW PLAYERS WHO CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE AND TURN AC MILAN INTO THE TRUE CHAMPIONS THEY REALLY ARE!!!!!!!!!
