    Flamini told Gazzetta

    I always said ACMilan would have been my first choice if I left Arsenal and I didn't do it for the money.
    I dont say it to boast, but I had lots of offers and I chose Milan because it's every player's dream.
    Milan is the team with more International title in the world.
    They are a great Club with a great history, a good, amiable coach, excellent players, passionate fans.
    When I entered the San Siro on the night of Milan - Arsenal it made me shiver.

    I like Flamini already. :ffic:

    ACMilan and Barcellona are very close to the deal for Zambrotta, according to the Gazzetta.
    Also the two teams are discussing Dinho and Eto'o, which according to Galliani are part of ACMilan future.

    Poyet: Spurs not interested in Eto'o

    http://msn.foxsports.com/soccer/story/8169924/Poyet:-Spurs-not-interested-in-Eto'o

    The last part mentions that Tottenham landed Luka Modric, of Dinamo Zagreb. Zagreb is a very good club in Croatia. They produce good players such as Eduardo of Arsenal. Eduardo unfortunately had a horrific leg injury in his first season and may be out up to half an year. Back to Modric though, he is a very very good player and was heavily pursued last year by Arsenal. Wenger thought very HIGHLY of him and tried to sign him but could not land him. Tottenham is loaded at Striker which is why they are trying to sell their Bulgarian star Berbatov.

    I agree. Kaka has stated that he has a dream of playing in the PL but with Arsenal thank god and not Chelsea. As for Robinho, I think Robinho will eventually be in a Chelsea kit.

    Maldini may rethink his decision "Another year?" we'll see.
    " The atmosphere makes me want to play one more year "
    " I love this sport and Berlusconi and Galliani are pushing me to carry on "

    Would be great if Maldini can play one more year, frankly I'm not sure if is got enough gas letf on him.

    Inter Milan: Objective Lampard.
    The deal is well under way, Massimo Moratti and Roman Abramovich have been discussing matters personally.

    My thinking is that Lampard will stay put.

    Sheva on the escape list.
    The Club still has a few days to decide, but it is unlikely that Abramovich will let Andriy go free, while Milan is only looking to land him on a free transfer.

    Yeah Maldini is probably older than my grandfather but the guy can still play. I agree though, one more year sounds good, possibly two but thats it.

    Lampard has had some criticism from Chelsea and its fans about his game. He is the all time leading midfield scorer at 111 goals I believe. He has been a big part of Chelsea for a while and I don't see him leaving either.

    Sheva is bound to be a Milan player, the question is just when?

    Ah god, I like Mourinho as a coach, I hope he doesn't come back. Send him to coach in the Serie A or take over someone like Newcastle.

    Great reads all over bro. Thanks :up:.

    Premiership trio tracking Croatian striker Zigic

    http://msn.foxsports.com/soccer/story/8171628/Premier-trio-take-a-look-at-Zigic

    First, I want to say that he is Serbian not Croatian. Fox soccer can't seem to get that right with players.

    Now, A lot of people don't know about Zigic. Zigic is a really good player. He got stuck at Valencia behind Villa and Morientes after they signed him to a nice contract this past off season. Zigic stands at a towering 6 feet, 7 inches and has one of the best "scoring heads" in the game. He is deadly with headers and his feet. The guy can score from all over. He has 190 career goals in 292 career appearances. That's an average of 1.5 goals a game. Heres some info on his presence on the Serbian national team:

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nikola_Zigic#2006_World_Cup

    Also, he was linked to Arsenal as I stated earlier and as well as Italian giants Juventus. Juventus bid on him but failed to overmatch Valencia's price of 20 million Euros.

    Which ever team he lands with, they will need a good winger who can lob the ball in. If they can do that for him, the guy couldl be dominant in the PL. I hoped that Arsenal would go after him because we are going to lose Adebayor whos a pretty big guy to Barcelona and they want Roque Santa Cruz. I rather have Zigic but than again, I am somewhat biased considering I am half Serbian. One other note is that he is by far the most liked player in Serbia as of now (I know my dad heavily criticizes (everything really) the Serbian national team, every player except Zigic.). Everybody likes him in favor of Mateja Kezman aka Batman, because Zigic is not a head case. He is a mature player who just goes out and does his job. Zigic and Dejan Stankovic of Inter Milan are by far the two best players on Serbia in my opinion. Heres some quick videos on him.

    http://youtube.com/watch?v=B-VamFoxKho

    http://youtube.com/watch?v=MhTNxold3bc&feature=related

    Btw, the last video proves Balkan players can play with all types of league, that strike is against Roma.

    Ronaldo To Decide Before Start of Euro 2008

    http://msn.foxsports.com/soccer/story/8165414/Ronaldo-taking-fortnight-to-think

    In a month or so, I think you will see Ronaldo lifting up a Real Madrid kit at a press conference.

    Another thing, there has been reports in the past that there was an offer of 190 million to ManU from Madrid for CR7. Don't be surprised if that transfer happens and its in the same range. I am going to go out on a limb and say Madrid will pay 175 million for CR7.

    Sheva will not be in Milan.

    Milan is to sign Drogba I believe, as well as Ronaldinho.

    I also have a strong feeling that Zambrotta will also be joining Milan.

    You heard it here first ladies and gents.

    Drogba is reconsidering his decision.

    Zambrotta stated a couple months ago that he will be let go by Barca and will likely join Milan. :wink2:
