Finally there is something worth writing about at AcMilan, the signings of Zlatan and Robinho. I just saw a couple of articles on the web ” Does AC Milan Posses the Best Attacking Lineup In the World?” and “Are AC Milan now Serie A favourites?” which prompted me to get off my lazy butt and write my 2 cents.
These signings are sensational.. thats exactly what they are, It is surely the best offense Milan have had in a long time .. essentially Robinho is filling in for Kaka,(lets call that a wash.) and Zlatan replaces Borriello which is definitely an upgrade. with Ronnie getting back in shape and Pato coming of age, it is definitely a menacing offense. (I think having to sit out the world cup, has lit a fire in their gut) The only issue is all four of these players are quite tempermental and they dont really play much defense.
Bottom line, if the teams let Milan play offense they will be doomed, but if they press Milan midfield of Ronnie, Pirlo and Ambro and hustle the possession away from them, that would essentially change the color of the game.
Against weaker offenses or good defenses:
—————-Ibra———–Pato—
—–Robinho——–Ronnie————
—————Pirlo———-Ambro—
Antonini—Silva—-Nesta—–Bonera–
————–Abbiati—————-
