Last night met Milan and Fiorentina for several reasons: it was pure sporting course between the two teams ranked among the top four, so the Champions League qualifiers. It was also the first anniversary of the ex-Srossoneo Alberto Gilardino. Completely apart from the fact that it was also the first game of the media phenomenon of Beckham's home in San Siro. And of course nobody was interested in Gilardino, Beckham or the result. Almost continuously played the Curva - often supported by the stands - a "Non si vende Kaka" (Kaka is not sold) for their superstar. After the final whistle the Brazilian prodigy hugged his teammates under a thundering "Galliani vendi il tuo Figlio" (Galliani buy your son). Mind you, the same Galliani, were sung at the Christmas party with the funny songs have in common!

I will not even skip over the possible sale Kakas to the sheiks of Manchester City, I do that, if the contract is signed. As a fan, it breaks my heart, key players like Kaka simply have no price. As a wholesale club with an unhealthy expenditure pattern in times of economic crisis should an offer of x Fanta Tilli Arden petrodollars are of course not so easily rejected. And as an objective observer, I try to be coherent: poach If profiting from Berlusconi's wealth AC Milan, Brazil or Italy is and will ensure qua superior financial strength of the greatest talents and most decorated football club in the known universe rises, then of course that is perfectly fine . Just as fine as you have to learn that the game goes in the opposite direction, and if anyone comes even richer, then we must also come out unscathed. With few exceptions, none of the current Milan players in their own youth team grew. And with each purchase somewhere out there our broken hearts and tears caused.

Is also conceivable, yes yet another scenario: Kaka has extended so far with any request from anyone to get his contract and the salary increases significantly. Ie every six months have knocked Chelsea or Real and punctual Daddy Bosco Leite arrived in the past via Turati and said: "Yes, of course Kaka is Milan's shining light, and remains, if ..." And every time there's a nice increase. It is of course not entirely ruled out that dad has gambled Kakà this time plain and simple: ring and Manchester City offers Kaka's dad in via Turati and says: "Ricky is, of course, if ..." - and there Berlusca responds: "If you want to go, then go yet. "

Is just a mind game, but that would explain, of course, that he has reasonably responded upset, complaining that he "no longer for sale", it explains his comments a la "I want this old captain will" and it explains the feverish Waiting for an offer from Real Madrid, Kaka ... because one does not really want: to go to City. But then appear to run on it out: Chelsea buys nothing more real looks at the drama from the outside and City are the only ones which have concrete on the table.

If this speculation (as I said, just a way of thinking) is true, then could Berlusca emerge as the absolutely brilliant winner of the campaign: Kaka has gambled himself and will get no salary increase, Kaka is not for City because he wants to in any case, nobody other offers as hoped and Kaka is staying with us. In this case (and only then) I would take the hat off Berlusca! A further increase in salary for someone who already pocketing 9 +1 million per year is ludicrous. And when Kaka gets offered 15 million, then give the various Dinho (4 million), Pato (2 mn), Ambro (1.5 million?), Etc. are no longer satisfied. So if Kaka is serious about his vows, then now is the time to speak up and say: "I'm staying here!" Despite all the theories: Against his will, we will Kakà sell unsafe.

When is it really to be: Good luck, Ricky, and thanks for everything you have done for us.
