He was a Chelsea loanee

 
Piatek signs for Milan > Higuain signs for Chelsea > Morata goes to Atlético. Come on Milan get the ball rolling.

23 year old Polish forward. Got a bit of everything and is scoring for fun in Serie A. We've been linked this week.

needs to change that celebration...

 
To spell his first name correctly would be a struggle for non-Polish speakers. Do we need that extra stress in our lives and on this forum :panicbutton: ?

The worrying aspect about this video and our continual link with all things italian, is how sh*t the standard of defending is in Italy. Absolutely shocking. They have no concept of marking, or tackling come to that. No wonder Sarriball looks explosive in Italy, its a league of mannequins.

Trust me, is not like this. Italian football is very complicated, is all about tactics, i can understand if you don't like it, it is not easy to approach. Your football is more direct, more spectacular but more "simple", for example in Italy was impossible for Momo Salah to score more than 30 goals because in Serie A the defences works differently, the defenses of the smaller teams play to cancel the opponents. I'm not saying it's better, maybe the opposite, it's just a matter of culture. This is what foreign teams seeking Italian coaches are looking for. Trust me, if there is one thing we can do is defend :)

Already scored twice in the first 45 minutes of his first game for AC Milan.

Against Napoli too!

You seen the goals? Both cracking finishes, could be a player to keep an eye on, looks like he’s got a fierce shot on him.

 
It's not that it would be that difficult to buy him off AC Milan at a later date, we'll see how he gets on.

First time I have watched those video clips and I have one burning question, why are there so few spectators in the stands? 

Serie A can't be that bad!

It is no more the Milan of Galliani and Berlusconi that you can buy whoever you want ,anyway just start for Piatek we'll see what he will do 

 
Yeah, he's a really good finisher.

My main concern with him relates to his technique. Unlike Higuain he doesn't seem to be a very good passer and his ball control seems rudimentary so I'm not sure that he would fit Sarri-ball anyway. 

 
I'm fairly sure we could have gotten Piatek, given his availability and our financial resources. It's Sarri who wanted Higuain, because he fits his idea of a striker.

Still not sure we have the players to get the best out of Higuain. He is a traditional centre forward that thrives on the quick ball & crosses. As the game went on without decent service coming in, he dropped deeper and when the ball came in he wasn’t where you wanted him to be. 

Hazard and Willian tend to overplay and not don’t release the ball quickly, will be interesting to see how he gets on today. 

 
We could have got Piatek instead of Higuain, but that would be just another signing Sarri doesn't want. The board showed they are behind Sarri in the striker transfer, now it's up to him and Higuian to deliver. For me, if you are a good finisher, you should do well whatever the system is, of course a manager that's willing to adapt system plays a big part too.
