You kidding? Watch the last World Cup? Or the Champs League Milan won? Or the season you mention they lost to you in the final? He is class.


its the age old tale of that role being so under rated.

you have to also take into account the players around him are ALL attack-minded leaving everything to Gattuso.

it would be a dream for a player of Gattuso's stature playing for West Ham. he is top class and has a good few years left in him.

I agree big jono. He has been a rock for ac milan. I think the debate now is will he retire at .C or will he make 1 more big move??? What you think??

i hope and think he will retire at Milan. he is playing for a fantastic club he loves and the fans undoubtedly love him.

what has he got to gain by leaving?

I take your pint i only think he would move for personal reasons. Such as wanting to play in the best league in the world, expierence a different style of football and playing in europe this year as milan haven't qualified this year.

some might argue that Serie A is the best league in the world.

not everybody buys into Sky's idea of great football.

he can compete in the UEFA Cup for a season im sure. after all, it was his and his teammates below par league performances that got them there. he is honourable enough to get them back where they should be i think.

Yeh true ppl may say Serie A is best league personally it hink the Premiership is. What do you think??? I think any team who had Gattuso in there team would be a very lucky team. I would have him back at ibrox in a heartbat seeing we through the league awya this year.

there are pro's and cons with each. i would be very wary of saying either was better to be honest. i enjoy watching both for different reasons. the premiership has more money and exposure but does that make it 'better'? i personally dont think so.

im sure 99% of clubs would like him at their club. he is an inspirational figure on the pitch.

How would you evaluate your season??? Ours has turned from being potential fantastic with uefa cup final and 3 cups and now we have lost league, won league cup and playing a 1st division team in scottish cup final.

West Ham will wait to see who the other PL clubs chuck out on the scrap heap and will go picking thru it for bargains, thats their transfer policy Wink

No i disagree, i think ramos will bring in a few quality players. His 1st real season next year and i think he will want to stamp his authority on the club. Lets also hope he learns some english lol. Very Happy

Gattuso to England?
