PAOLO MALDINI AWARDED FOR 800TH MILAN GAME
9/24/2005
MILANELLO - Adriano Galliani led the ceremony to award Paolo Maldini with a medal to record his appearance record. Written on it was: '800 times a Rossoneri', signed by Silvio Berlusconi. Galliani then said about Paolo: 'It's difficult to talk about him, everything has been said. When Silvio Berlusconi acquired Milan on Feburary 20, 1986, Paolo had already made his debut in Serie A. 800 is an incredible number, in the same shirt and same number.  Paolo is doing something unrebeatable. Now that the brake discs are functioning well I have been told they work even better in the cold. He has a contract until the end of 2007 and I want to negotiate another when we have an official meeting. The medal I had out today is light compared to the one for 1000. Paolo is the son of the first Italian captain to win the Champions Cup and he repeared that. He is always our captain, we'll retire the number three shirt when Paolo leaves but the number will remain for his son in the youth side.'

Paolo Maldini: 'I think I have aged pretty well. My spirit is still that of a kid, the knee a little less so but I will look to honour my contract until June 30, 2007. I would also like to announce that my son Christian will start with the Milan youth section at Linate on Monday.'
 

KAKA’ GETS AWARD FOR 100 GAMES
9/24/2005
MILANELLO - Adriano Galliani said: 'Not even Kakà on August 15, 2003 would have thought that in just two years he would have played 100 official games for Milan. Instead, he arrived in a side rich in talent and played 100 games at the highest level as a regular. I would wish that Kakà would now join Paolo Maldini. When he arrives at the end of his career, the average age of players is getting older, he could be playing at 40, taking into everything into account. We'll see ... I hope at least the same for Kakà.'

Ricky then said: 'These first 100 games for Milan arrived very quickly. I hope it goes on like this, for me and the team. Drawing level with Maldini? That would be marvellous, Paolo is an example to us all.'


 
AMBROSINI: 'Scoring is a special sensation'
9/24/2005
MILANO - La Gazzetta dello Sport interviewed Massimo Ambrosini: 'I wouldn't change anything and don't look back with bitterness. The goal in the semi-final, the injury that kept me out of Istanbul, above all, what happed on that evening. Too many regrets to take in so it's best to get back and with a anger which in this case is positive energy.' Massimo's best moments are reserved for goals: 'I can't hide it, I love scoring goals a lot. I am pleased for myself and for the team, but scoring is a special sensation even I will always be a midfielder.'
