AC Milan coule be fairly strong again now potentially with some of their signings.
---------------------------------Abiatti------------------------------------------
Zambrotta------------Nesta----------------Yepes/T Silva-------Antoni/Jankulovski
----------------------Ambrosini-------------Pirlo---------------------------------
Pato------------------------------Ronaldinho-----------------------------Robinho
----------------------------------Ibrahimovic------------------------------------
Plus with a decent blend of youth & experience on the bench. The Rossoneri could be a dangerous team again in Europe this year.
On paper that looks like a team filled with creative flair and ridiculously talented attackers, but can this really be a coherent side?
Not one of Pato, Ronaldinho, Robinho or Ibrahimovic will work hard defensively and are usually most effective when they're free of defensive duties and effectively free roles. I can't see all 4 of them playing together and working well as a team. Maybe in attack we could see some brilliant moments, but defensively there's a lot lacking. Against an organised side (cough Benitez cough), they'll be torn apart.
