Here's the real all time Milan XI
...
They can't beat this Also Pep's Barca couldn't even beat Allegri's Milan without fake pens lmao
*blocks your path*
Why do south Slavs like Serie A so much
>Albanian
>Slav
british "education"
>Dida
>Gattuso on the right wing
Best universities in Europe by a very, very long distance my friend :^)
No Gullit?
Gattuso is clearly RCM in that formation and Dida is literally our best keeper(he used to be a beast in the early 2000s)...Milan never really had great keepers...other than maybe Rossi.
Regardless that line-up is a fucking joke. Anyone who puts Pirlo and Seedorf on an all-time XI Milan line-up needs to be shot.
Then I guess it's just your low IQ
Uh-huh, and has the average brit attended any of these "best universities"?
No Rijkaard either
Selections in OP is a complete joke
This is the real all time Milan 11
Your XI is cool but Nesta was definitely better than Costacurta. Sheva and Kakà could also be added but it's alright.
Costacurta is underrated as fuck by people who didn't watch him on his prime. His understanding with Baresi was insane. I could go with either Billy or Nesta but went with the former.
No way is Kaka getting over Savicevic. He's just nowhere near that level.
I love Sheva but you have to sacrifice someone and Van Basten is simply better.
They'd be first bench options but not starting material.
You just know how batshit insane Milan is when you can leave out players like Kaka, Sheva, Nesta, Inzaghi etc. out of the All-Time 11.
i miss cafu
>he doesn know that feel when his team can outscore anyone
madrid fag detected
It's fine not putting them in but they would also be fine. Sheva to represent 2003 and Kàkà to represent 2007. Also, it's true I couldn't watch much Costacurta in his prime but I still think Nesta was more talented. Best defender I have seen.
>not rating Seedorf
i'd put Rijkard over Pirlo tho
Literally who? never heard about any of those fuckers in America so they are irrelevant tbqg
you gotta go with ManU they got all the all time greats, Beckham, Pogba, Ronaldo, Rooney etc...
>no makelelelelele
dropped
*blocks your path*
heh nothen personnel kid
I have 2 Ancelotti era representation there with Cafu and Dida but I went for pure ability over representations of eras if you know what I mean. Otherwise I'd have put guys from the 60s there like Maldini Sr., Rivera, Altafini.
I rate Dorf, but all-time Milan material he is not...not even when he's playing at his best is he anywhere near Gullit or Boban...let's be real.
Goes without saying Frank is million times better than Peerlo, so was Albertini and Desailly.
that was easy
>Alba
>Anywhere near an all-time XI
I'm not even a Barca fan and I call bullshit on that jesus fuck
BTW No Rivaldo or R9?
This really wouldn't work in an actual match nowadays.
That defense gets ass-raped.
>That defense gets ass-raped.
No it wouldn't, you have 3 CBs and 2 defensive mids.
Ovechkin - Bondra - Semin
Oates - Backstrom - Jagr
Langway - Gonchar
Labre - Johansson
Kolzig
Holtby
>literally every player peaked in this century
nice "history" you got there, milan
I barely count Ramos as a defender
Pirri definitely doesn't have the fitness seeing since he played in the 60s and 70s and he was also more of a midfielder turned defender
Hierro is great but obv. no Maldini/Baresi
Redondo is fantastic but even with Makelele partnering him the midfield is too thin and Zidane won't backtrack to defend
Lastly the attack is way overcrowded and that would only work in the 50s
This team is all screwed up. Although have to admit it'd be fun as hell to watch for the insanity alone.
See for a proper line-up
If I had put Roberto Carlos and Helgera or Carvajal in RB you wouldn't have a problem with it even though nowadays wingbacks are more attackers than defenders.
No, Carlos couldn't defend all that well either but you would get additional attack prowess over Ramos at least.
The biggest problem is prioritizing offense over midfield though. No matter how good Redondo-Makelele are they'd still be outnumbered by 3 men/4 men midfields.
Just moving Zidane a bit deeper at LCM would solve a lot of problems alone.
Still think you don't really need 4 attackers they'd just overcomplicate shit and all of them will try to hog the ball for themselves(especially CR). 2 is more then enough 3 is pushing it.
>No Maradona (the literal GOAT), Romario, Rivaldo, Proto-prime Ronaldo in Barcelona's team
>Alba is in
Pero me cago en ti chaval
*bloqueja teu cami*
Andate a dormir, maricón!
>No Gullit
>No Maradona
he goes in the Napoli all time xi
since he played multiple seasons there
Cannavaro over ramos
Busquets works better under Xavi/Iniesta than Koeman ever would
Too many eastern yuros. Get the fuck out of here with Boban and put Kaka there he won you 2007 CL on his own. Also Sheva for Savicevic and I have a question for Albertini, was he really that good please describe his playstyle
What about my Pleb Juve XI??
>No Platini
You high af
Since a lot of GOAT tier players played for multiple top teams, you should only be able to include them in the teams they spent their prime years in
So for example Chelsea wouldn't be able to use Gullit, Spurs couldn't have Davids and Barca can't claim Maradona
He said XI not IX
If it was about who would win in an actual game, then Barca easily. Just take Pep's Barca and add in prime Ronaldinho and Ronaldo in place of Pedro and Villa.
No Gravesen??
>chelsea would use gullit
Literally unbeatable
>john arne riise
Isn't that the team that lost to Liverpool?
bundes did it for you
although i wouldnt put schweinsteiger in there
>Schweinsteiger over Ballack
>Ribery over Effenberg
>Breitner on LB and not CB
come on man
come on m8 desu
>Redondo
This meme never gets old.
>Dida
kek mate are you really that dumb?
Milan is not famous for their great gks
>That mostly mid-2000s Milan team
I think I know a team that could beat it........
One match where Milan had their biggest choke of all time and Gerrard dived like a bitch for the PK for the 3rd goal means jackshit. Not to mention they won on pens.
>They won on Pens so it doesn't count
Maybe Shevchenko shouldn't have missed then
>Kaka over Boban
You can't be serious with this shit. Kaka is overhyped as hell because of those few great matches he had in 2006/07. He was actually much better in 2004/05 too.
Anyways, no way in hell is he as good as Boban. Boban was a complete player, he could play in several positions was a great free kick taker, he could defend well and had way better passing ability etc.
Plus I chose Savicevic over Kaka not Boban. Kaka can't play as CM/Side Midfielder he's strictly an AM.
Again Savicevic > Shevchenko. Plus you already have Van Basten over there so putting 2 similar players like Sheva and Van Basten in there is a waste.
You just can't help it...when making a real top 11 Milan of all time based purely on ability it's always going to be heavily dominated by Sacchi/Capello era players.
Imagine Pirlo but he could defend so he didn't need bodyguards. Plus he had more stamina, worked harder and was more versatile being able to play in more than one midfield position. Had a really powerful shot too.
Ancelotti was much the same way before him but not as good imo.
Pirlo was basically a poor man's version of these two.
Maybe Pirlo shouldn't have missed his either.
That's neither here nor there though. Any other day and Milan would never choke and concede 3 goals. Istanbul was a freak accident.
Dida was a monster in the early 2000s
2005 flare incident really fucked him up good and he never recovered after that
True but it's not like we've had complete shitters either
Dida was great before the flare incident, Rossi was really good too though he's underrated because of the legendary back-line and I suppose Buffon's granddad or whatever Lorenzo Buffon was good too from what I read.
How do you accidentally let the opposition score 3 goals and then not score any more yourself?
Technically we let them score 2 goals and the 3rd one came from a non-existent PK. Dida saved Alonso's shot too at first but Alonso scored on the rebound.
It's not like Milan was playing shit in the 2nd half all the time either.
They still had more chances and Sheva missed a spectacular chance he wouldn't miss. Even fucking Serginho missed his penalty which is just fucking nuts to think about because he was a goddamn specialist.
How you ask? How? I don't fucking know...nobody does. Ever since that disaster everybody from the fans to the players to Ancelotti to Galliani, Berlusconi etc. everyone wonders how. There's really no explanation.
>riise
>grobbelar instead of clemence
>Imagine Pirlo but he could defend so he didn't need bodyguards.
but he had Desailly
He had Rijkaard too. Point is they didn't cover for him much. He was more than competent defensively and he didn't struggle under pressure unlike Pirlo

You clearly know your Milan players mate fairplay, which is your favourite Milan manager I assume Sacchi right
Desailly was over the hill when he joined us, Carvalho was GOAT
Palace GOAT XI
...
Scholes can't tackle and Pogba can't defend at all.
where's tom huddleston fambly
I love Alba but no Pikek or Alves?
Are you seriously putting Rooney and Zlatan above Cantona?
>Pogba
>dat Zlatan + Trezeguet partnership
>dat Del Piero + Trezeguet connection
Sebastiano Rossi was a better keeper than Dida. He only never got a national callup because Italy had Walter Zenga at his peak in that era, who was probably the best Italian keeper ever after Zoff and Buffon.
