good news

 

[Average Joe]

Bit gutted

But was on a ridiculous wage for whats now a rotation player

Don't understand why AC Milan didn't play a 4-2-3-1 to fit them all in.

Pirlo - Gattuso/Ambrosini/Flamini

Pato - Ronaldinho - Robinho

Ibrahimovic​

The 3 in behind Ibra hardly ever track back so they would be exposed on the wings and Ac Milan's full backs are shocking.

Would leave them far too exposed at the back, the front 4 hardly ever track back, Pirlo will hardly break the play up, leaving one of the three others you named a very, very difficult job.

Really surprised he didn't go back to Gremio - I guess there's no loyalty in football any more....

This. Guessing it's a it like when Ronaldo was linked heavily with Flamengo but joined Corinthians instead, although not sure if Gremio are as big a rival with Flamengo as Corinthians.

 

[TGW]

good for him, his retirement plan is all set out now

Gremio pulled out as they couldn't afford AC Milan's demands. They were on the bidding table right until the last hurdle

 

[bray123]

wow, i heard that he is on 1M per month wages, it's a lot for brazilian league, and it's a huge amount for argentinian league

 

[NunoPeixinho]

I'm glad for him , he will play on a regular basis in a very good club

 

[Blynd1]

500k month made his passion for Gremio disappear ^^)

Believe me or not, lots of Gremio supporters don't want him back...

Let's hope so. Thoroughly enjoyed watching him prawn La Liga a few years ago and I miss those days

fail

Fail? Care to explain how? He's still playing football and he'll enjoy it back in Brazil.

Really too bad he didn't come to the states he's exactly the type of player we need in the MLS. Exciting, creative, and recognizable. People would come out to the stadiums in droves to see him. Maybe we could get him by the end of his contract, but by then he'll be old, slow, and probably fat from partying.
