Shevchenko to return to Milan?

[Pennywise]

Shevchenko-Ronaldo had been great to watch.

[Diabolico]

Fine with me that we probably won't get him-- I'd rather someone new, Sheva feels too much like an attempt to recapture the past.

Sheva begs for San Siro return Saturday 14 July, 2007

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Andriy Shevchenko is set for crunch talks with Chelsea next week begging to be released for a £15m move to Milan.

Reports in several newspapers, including the ‘Daily Mirror’, ‘Daily Star’ and ‘Sky Italia’ television, suggest Roman Abramovich will meet with the Ukrainian over the next few days.


The Rossoneri have never disguised their desire to bring Sheva back to San Siro just a year after his £30m switch.


President Silvio Berlusconi and Vice-President Adriano Galliani have also repeatedly stated that the player is eager to return to the club where he played for seven years, winning the Scudetto, Champions League, Coppa Italia, European Super Cup and the Ballon d'Or.


Recently Galliani gave a clue as to what was needed to complete the deal. “I spoke to Shevchenko and he knows what he has to do.”


Next week the hitman will hold showdown talks with Chelsea owner Abramovich and beg to be released from his contract for £15m so that he can join Milan.


This would after all be a repeat of what happened last summer, when he was only sold because he personally asked the Rossoneri to be set free, supposedly so that he could learn English to communicate better with his American wife Kristen Pazik and their children.


Napoli transfer guru Pierpaolo Marino was also asked about the Shevchenko situation and commented on Pazik’s role.


“Shevchenko to Milan? There’s no point asking transfer experts, you’d be better off asking his wife.”


Another problem may lie with his former teammates, as it's rumoured many of them would not welcome Sheva with open arms after he abandoned them 12 months ago.

The only way I want Sheva back is if he gets down on his knee's and begs and begs and begs. And says sorry to the Milan fans, but I rather have someone new. Neverthless, I would do the same as I did with Ronaldo cheer everytime he scores...

Interesting..

Only Milan could probably bring his career back on track.

[barracuda]

I'm still undecided. I think he did betray us, but he is a fantastic player and he has paid a price for his betrayal (missing out on the CL and having a sucky season).

Exactly how i feel...

[Forza_Roma]

I think Milan should forget about him. They do not need him. Although, it would be nice to see Kaka and Sheva back together again. I don't know. If it happens, it happens.

Didn't Milan sell him for 30m to Chelsea?

[Aladino]

Yeah something along those lines. 47 mil euros and 30 mil pounds i think. But Milan never pay the same price to get Sheva back

[cerebral_assassin]

Fuck that Cock-a-roach!!!!

If milan takes him back, i'll riot... thats the fact of the matter with it!

A year ago, we begged him to stay, and he fucked off to chelsea, so y should we take him back, i'd have prefer oli to stay n prove himself....

Milan should just focus on signing Pato and maybe another pirlo like player.

[barracuda]

The only "Pirlo-like" players of quality around are Xavi and Juninho in my books. Neither I imagine could co-exist with Pirlo, nor would accept the bench.

On Sheva, I'm still undecided, mostly because I'm unimpressed with the other realistic options around....

[Jager]

I think Milan would be foolish to take him back, and they would be showing weakness.

Inter could have had Ronaldo last year in a heartbeat, but they refused. Its strange how things have changed in Milan.

[Aladino]

I don't think he wil come, if Milan don't get over this we will land up with 3 forwards, and it's chasing a lost cause. Sheva must bugger off and Milan must take their finger out and get moving if they wnat to win stuff this season

[Jager]

Honestly, Milan should not take him back out of principal. He left and buggered off, and caught them off gaurd.

Things go to shit for him in England, now he wants to come back. There has to be a time when the better of the club's image is protected. You establish a bad precedent with such moves.....besides, the Curva Sud will riot...well maybe they will.

[Aladino]

I think a huge part of the Curva Sud wil riot, he can't come back here and expect ever thing to be hunky-dory. that is just disrespectful towards Milan. Fuck, he pisses me off soooo much. As Seedorf says he is a winner he must stay at Chelski and prove it.

Milan are in a striker crisis but he won't make things any better

[Forza_Roma]

Ya, better he stays in England. Sheva always said that he needed time to adjust in England. But now, he's finally admitting that he can't adjust.
