Borriello: Beckham more important to AC Milan than Pato
Marco Borriello says AC Milan are a better team for the return of on-loan LA Galaxy midfielder David Beckham.
Indeed, Borriello rates Beckham's influence as greater than Brazilian star Alexandre Pato.
He explained: “Without taking anything away from Pato, I must say David Beckham has brought the right balance both in defence and attack. We are very dangerous with his crosses.
“Ronaldinho can become stronger than he was at Barcelona and he brings so much joy. Maybe last year he was overshadowed by Kaka.
“On Sunday we will discover our true worth. Inter are a big test, we are curious and want to put ourselves in the spotlight.”

Boriello is totally wrong. Huntelar should have started up front instead of Beckham and probably Beckham in the middle for Gattuso. Inter very cleverly marked our Ronaldinho with three menb and Boriello with two at all
times because Beckham as a forward never went near the penalty box and playedmost of thye match at midfield. He was never a threat so they did not need to mark him until he actually got the ball. Add to that a nervous defence with Nesta out and that's the result we got.
Oh yeah, how'd that work out for you tonight marco. You and your sh*t team were beaten by a 9 man inter team..you are a terrible excuse for a milan striker and pato is one hundred times better than your inconsistent ass
borriello you are ***** for that statement that beckham important than pato you are a wast stricker than you have any goal sens you are not a shape forward milan use borriello to swap for lazio hitman zarate and use jankulvsky and kaladze for dzeko because borriello is not a striker it can turn no short please sell borriello
