Now thats like Sol saying to Spurs that he wants to play for Arsenal.......


:lol:
In seriousness, that's not an issue these days though!
Even it was fairly common knowledge before he signed for inter he was a Milan fan.
He got collared the other day in an interview. He was asked about AC, but sensibly answered "it's not an issue" and moved on. He was then given a AC shirt and asked wear it. He refused and said he couldn't and wouldn't.

The interview finished and he was told this. They then ask him to try on the presented shirt for size and he was filmed doing so by secret recording which when out!
Slightly stupid but he was duped.

Does that mean he is as brainless as diaby ?? :shock:

From what little I know of him he seems to be a strong but mobile guy striker and I am always saying that we need a guy with pace up front cos rvp, bedtner and eduardo combined dont have fcuk all pace :roll:

He's got tons of potential: pace, power, strength, great footballing ability. I think a move to England will do him good, he's had a lot of trouble starting his career in Italy, being racially abused wherever he goes. I think he's the sort of guy who needs an arm round his shoulder than being called someone with 'One Brain Cell,' by his twat of a manager. I don't think he is another Ade and he just needs a break, that's all.

He needs to leave the country. I feel sorry for the lad as he's a black Italian living in a facist country.

Problem is the majority of the country doesn't want him which extends to some of his fellow professionals.
Sadly the Italians are several years behind us in terms of black national players.
I think the problem for him is he stated he loved AC milan not the best thing to do if you play for Inter i dont think its racial

So give Walcott a run through the middle where he can whizz past the central defenders.

Chamkah is coming (my hunch is Eduardo is going on loan) but we should have a serious look at this guy too.
