AC Milan want Kop flop Aquilani back after releasing former Arsenal star Flamini

By Daily Mail

AC Milan are ready to revive their attempts to sign Liverpool midfielder Alberto Aquilani after releasing former Arsenal ace Mathieu Flamini on a free transfer. The Italian giants pulled the plug on talks to extend the out-of-contract Frenchman's San Siro stay after he failed to agree terms on a new two-year deal.

But Milan boss Massimiliano Allergri is eager to welcome back unsettled Anfield star Aquilani as Flamini's replacement.
The Italy international spent last season on loan at the Serie A side but returns to Merseyside next month to begin pre-season training with boss Brendan Rodgers. Although the 27-year-old could yet have a future at Liverpool, Milan are willing to wait until the end of the summer transfer window in their bid to re-sign Aquilani on a permanent basis.
'The deadline has passed and we told his lawyer we won't be waiting any more,' Milan vice president Galliani told Sky Sport Italia, speaking of Flamini's exit. 'We'll bring in a new midfielder by August 31.

'It could be Alberto Aquilani or someone else, as he is a Liverpool player and we're not in talks with them.'
Aquilani, whose Liverpool deal runs until 2014, cost the Reds £17million in 2010 from Roma. But after an injury-hit first season at Anfield he was sent out on loan to Fiorentina before joining Milan on a short-term deal. Milan, meanwhile, have agreed deals to sign Chievo defender Francesco Acerbi and Genoa’s Guinea midfielder Kevin Constant.There was bad news for midfielder Sulley Muntari, however, who faces six months on the sidelines after undergoing knee ligament damage surgery.

and now they want him back

they know he is quality, just that they also know very well he's not flava with Roy & dalglish, and is taking advantage of it.

i don't know whats all these he is injury prone, when he was out on loan, i don't think he was out for any injury mid to long term for the longest time. anyone?

wow...seems like all sharing anfield photo...
i too wanna showoff abit!!
kekeke....

Bestest time of me life...!!

It actually looks better in your photos Duke than what i remembered circa 95-96. My first impressions was that it wasn't as grand/magnificent as I expected. then again, that was my impression of the north west and england in general - almost everything was old and tired looking as compared to Asia which was pretty much in the build build build mode back then.

As for the rejuvenating the area bit - stanley park which is but a stone's throw away iinm will be a large stadium. Anfield which is also a large (in relative terms) stadium plus our neighbour's home means that there will be three large stadiums in one small area. Not exactly ideal. A waste of space even if you ask me - especially if no matches are going to be played in Anfield. I'd prefer that we tear it down and redevelope it into something useful instead of having another team move in and call it home. A museum will be nice, but preserving a whole stadium to serve as a museum? Hmm... wishful thinking imho.

seems like we are interested in Fabio Borini.. hmm.. any comments?

That was the initial plan

Meireles superb ball to ronaldo.

Whoever thought adam is superior needs to have their heads checked.

halo duke and to everyone here , does anyone know any other sources to purchase a league match tickets? Apparently we need to become a member just to enable us to have the first priority after season tickets to purchase the tickets.

The club come out with a new membership plan call lite member worth around 26.99pounds. Does anyone here have experience purchasing tickets ? I read from RAWK that stated the match tickets will be put on sale on this coming July and November. I assumed this July they will be selling August , September and November matches.

Adryan pm-ed me and told me it is not worth it to get a membership just for a match. Does anyone know the membership can be transferable? Does anyone with membership can help me with this ? So bad rawk didnt allow new member to sign up for their forum , so I have to ask from here.

TQ for reading

btw thanks for sharing Leaf.

nice, look like you had good fun!

Well we can always replace Melwood with Anfield if you feel it'll be under-utilised. With the increased number of seats available, sponsors can arrange for fans to not only watch games on matchdays but also attend training sessions, jacking up the prices on travel packages, meaning more revenue albeit not a huge amount. As it is, Melwood is used solely by the first team for training with reserve and youth team matches being played at the Academy in Kirkby.

Sorry but I gave you the source that I know. As I member I know it isn't transferable and the card can only be use solely by the registered member. You can also try to PM Monstar or easypeasy. Both were in the UK and went for matches.

the source is daily mail = harian metroll

Agreed.
Those damn Italians are just milking the situation.
I believe even if they bid for Aquilani, it will not be more than GBP 5 million.

What they are trying to do (I think) is to try and get Aqualani interested in joining them instead so they can (again) use this excuse to supress his price. And if Liverpool reject, they will say "Oh, Aquilani wants to join us, not we want to buy him" and the "oh, nobody out there wants Aquilani so you guys (liverpool) should be thankful we are even bidding for him" kinda nonsense and excuse and in a way Liverpool have no choice but to sell....

i'd rather we use aquaman than to sell him. after all, what the heck we paid 20m for?

btw heard that flamini is now free agent. snap him up?

Nope, had one good season with Arsenal then forced a move to AC Milan for a bigger contract. While there he was never a first 11 player and never replicated the form he had with Arsenal. His 2011-12 season never happened due to a serious knee injury and there is now doubts regarding his fitness. He is now a free agent because of failed contract negotiations with AC Milan, what I think happened was they no longer think Flamini is worthy of the big contract he is demanding.

If we were to sign him he could potentially be another 'Joe Cole' type of signing for us. Not saying JC is a bad player, despite having a good season with Lille, he still have a lengthy history of injuries and at age 30 his 90k a week wages is just over the top for me. Flamini is 28 and just had an entire season out because of injury, Owen Hargreaves anyone?

Man City's Hart inspired by Gerrard


"He's been great," said the Manchester City stopper.

"Personally, he expects a lot of me. When a guy like that looks to you to perform, it means a lot.

"When he turns around and says 'You need to do this' it makes me grow as a player."

Hart describes Gerrard as someone who leads by example rather than an in-your-face skipper in the mould of Terry Butcher.

"He's an inspirational leader in what he does," said Hart.

"He's not going around looking people in the face and telling people they're not doing the right things, but he leads by example.

"He is a model professional, someone who's been there and done it.

"He just inspires."

Suarez & Messi Hattrick ..
BR shud buy the player dat can 'feed' suarez the goal..

Suarez getting a taste of playing with messi is bad news. Hope he won't ask for transfer to barca after this.

That game is just for show, both teams defenders hardly defending.
