    i felt a bit sad after fiore-milan....if cannavaro got balon d'oro Maldini deserved it too...i've to say that i think he deserved it most in 94' when Stoichkov got it...he was good in '03 too...such a big player should have got it..but anyway i think defence players simply cant have better season than attackers
    Disappointment is a sort of bankruptcy - the bankruptcy of a soul that expends too much in hope and expectation

    bring maldini to Barça perfect to help with the youth Academy!
    "I pass and I move, I help you, I look for you, I stop, I raise my head, I look and, above all, I open up the pitch...The one who has the ball, is the master of the game...That's the school of Joan Vilà, of Albert Benaiges, of Johan Cruijff, of Pep Guardiola" - Xavi Hernandez

    !!Visca Barça!! !!Visca Catalunya!!

    This guy was an absolute joy to watch, tackles were perfection & always clean and elegant.

    Great guy also, took numerous wage cuts when Milan were struggling financially, legend of a person & as loyal as they come.

    Nesta/Maldini cb pairing

    One of the best players I've had the pleasure to watch. By all accounts a top bloke too, a real ambassador for football.

    One of the greatest ever on and off the pitch.

    What irks me is that he still isn't doing some job at Milan. Maldini revealed his frustration some time ago about being not welcomed back by Milan.

    I remember back in 2011 I read an interview with him saying that AC Milan are alienating him from the club. He wanted to play a role for them but they turned him down.

    How cool would it be if we could get him as a defensive coach or something, maybe bring his son too.

    I think it's because he'd have too much influence & would want to do things his own way & being so popular & mostly right everyone would side with that, shame i'd like nothing more.
