Milan had already achieved the agreement to buy a young unknown player from Serie B Club, Empoli, named Ricardo Saponara in the mid of last season. Many people said that the style of Saponara is resemble to ex Milan’s Favourite Ricardo Kaka. Exaggerate? I don’t Know actually, but I wish so. I wish Saponara will be the new Kaka. Saponara position naturally is like Kaka, he is advanced playmaker, a trequartista who able to detect and create the game. I saw him several times in youtube and I know that he will be the most skillful player in the row of Milan’s Midfielder. He has a good dribling and has tha ability to face to face with the defenders and beat them. Maybe he is not as quick as Kaka but he has a vision to create the game and open the attack from the middle.
I remember last season when Allegri tried to place Urby as a trequartista behind Pazzini and Sharawy and it didn’t work. The reason is so simple that Urby is not a trequartista, even when he tried with all his effort, he still isn’t. The under performance of Kevin Prince Boateng, the leaving of Seedorf, and the inability of Urby then forced Allegri to omit trequartista in his system. Milan tried to attack from the flank to optimaze the speed by Sharawy and Niang. The coming of Balotelli in the mid of the season who played as a poacher made the system effective enough. But honestly, although Milan got a lot of victory with this system, the game was monoton. It would be very hard for Milan to score if the attack from the flank is sterelyzed by the defender. Milan doen’t have a lot of craetive midfielder to break the enemy’s defense from the middle. Maybe just Ricardo Montolivo in the mid who has the ability to do that, but he is plotted too far from the ¾ area.
That’s why he coming of Saponara is said will cover the missing puzzle for Milan. But will he? Again, I wish. And now, the ball is in Allegri’s hand. Honestly, I worry him because of Allegri. We must remeber the way Allegri discarded Pirlo, the most creative player in Milan at the time, and choosed Antonio Nocerino who depended a lot in his physic as a ball winner. And I think it will be very fool for the coach to ignore the young’s talent. Disagrre? Well, if you see the video below, you will be have the same opinion with me.
