Marco van Ginkel

He should of gone to Hull, or someone else over here. Shame.

But good luck to him, hope he gets games and comes back here next summer with a real chance.

[CHOULO19 24,332]

Bad move. Season is long, he would've gotten some opportunities for our team. futhermore, Milan are just shit and I doubt that he can blossom there. They have sold their best player and replaced him with Torres...let this sink in...

He's played piratically NO competitive football in over a season. "some opportunities" is not nearly enough. He's 22. He needs regular playing time or he won't develop.

Milan are not nearly the bad side you try to make them out to be. They will definitely be challenging for top 3 in the Serie A this season.

Are we going to bring another midfielder now? Looks bit thin, more so if we will go with 4:3:3 in near future as our defence was quite poor so far.

[Dy-lan 142]

Honestly I think its a decent loan. He should eventually be starting there, which is good for us as he needs tons of playing time right now.

Milan are a historic club and imo this is a really big move. Sure he could have gone to a pl club but MVG has the opportunity to play in one of Europe's greatest clubs and will be trained by some of the best in football.

Not even close imo... There's still a gap between the two Milan sides and Juve+Roma+Napoli.

I don't see Milan challenging those top 3 teams at all. They'll challenge Inter at the most, and hopefully Inter will come above

Doubt it, we only go 433 in big games now anyway like against City, Pool, Arsenal, MU...etc. 4231 most of the time with Fab as one of the CDM as the opposition is unlikely to be trying to dominate the midfield or attack us as much. Remember at the very worst Dave can play at CDM with Luis LB too

Don't know what you're talking about, they're currently top of the league!

Bet you they don't finish more than 5 points off of 3rd place.

Not a chance.

In all seriousness, Milan's squad isn't as bad as people make it out to be. No European football should help. Good start should give them some confidence too. MVG would definitely improve midfield.

Good luck Cornelius

Good luck, Marco.

Good luck, Marco.

loan?

[LAM09 6,557]

Done deal!

He has joined Milan on loan for the season.

[Thendo 1,088]

Presumably a loan. It seems like a wise move for him imo, won't play week in week out here and will get good experience from playing for a big club.

According to Di Marzio, Torres is persuading Marco to join him at Milan..

One less reason to go.

Please van Ginkel, come back to London a better player.

[BlueLyon 9,359]

Its good for him to go there, he needs to catch rhytm of playing regulary again or he will never be a starter here. Not so good for us though, as he could help us in cup games or smaller league games, so that other CMs would get some rest.
