Milan's Kaka hails Man Utd's 'Brazilian style'

[Lazie]

(Palos, Tiouches and alll Empire haters .... read and WWEEEP!)


AC Milan's Brazilian superstar Kaka believes Manchester United have overtaken Arsenal as the Premiership's most stylish side.
 


The 25-year-old got a first-hand look at Sir Alex Ferguson's men on Tuesday as his side crashed 3-2 at Old Trafford in a thrilling Champions League semi-final first leg.


Kaka was arguably the star of the show with a first-half brace, but he saw enough of United to convince him they would not look out of place at Rio's famous Maracana.

'I watch the Premiership and I see Manchester United in England as the most Brazilian-like in their style,' he told the Daily Telegraph.

'Obviously, Ronaldo and Rooney are very skilful, but they all play well with the ball on the floor.

'They play the passing game. They did not use any long balls against us.

'People always say that Arsenal play a Brazilian style of football, but I think Manchester United are more Brazilian in their way of playing than the Arsenal players are.'

Kaka also hailed United's fans for their vocal performance on Tuesday night.

'I was particularly impressed with the singing of the Manchester fans at half-time, especially as their team was 2-1 down,' he added.

'This is one of the great things about Premiership fans. They have such passion for their team. I love that kind of atmosphere.'

The Champions League's top scorer this season has predicted an equally attacking second leg when the sides reconvene on Wednesday night at the San Siro.

Kaka said: 'The two teams are very similar, both very strong, who both espouse an attacking brand of football.

'We are two teams who instinctively like to come forward and attack. I think the combination of the teams makes it a joy to watch.

'You could never hold back and settle for a draw against a team like Manchester United.

'The second leg will be an exciting match, because it would always be this way whenever these two teams of players meet.

'But we are going to go for the kill in the San Siro, to win outright.'

It sound like the man being a true professional and talking about his honest experience playing against the ManU, Brazilians don't hate, we appreciate!

hear wha de man say too, de fans impress him... ManU have de best fans in the world, they doh give up, and thats exactly what the players feed off of....


Ah mean Fergie, even let Yorkie train with Manu before the world cup, and had Scholes showing Yorke the type of role he does play in midfield... Give Keane he blessing on signing Carlos Edwards... Same team that make we proud when Yorke win the treble, wha other Prem manager do that for TnT... So I does cah understand the hate, Jose Mourhino and Wegner go be like "Trinidad who?, where that is?"

We feared a Roma-style goal rush, says Kaka

Kaka, Milan's brilliant Brazilian who scored twice in the Champions League semi-final, first-leg, admitted his side had visions of Manchester United's seven-goal frenzy against Roma in the previous round after Sir Alex Ferguson's side scored an early goal on Tuesday night.

"After five minutes there is obviously the fear that Manchester can go goal crazy," Kaka said. "Our thoughts went back to Roma, seeing how quickly they managed to score. That is why my equaliser was so important and why I celebrated so much."

Kaka admitted Wayne Rooney's late winner was a blow to team morale but remains confident of reaching the final in Athens. "It is a sour defeat," he said. "It was a psychological problem. The whole team went too deep and we paid for that as United have great movement and you need to really push them to keep them down. But I believe we are favourites. Now we hope our home fans will help us to reach the final."

Gennaro Gattuso, Milan's fiery little midfielder, was typically irritated about the finish to the game. "This result burns," he said. "We are really angry. But do not fear because in the return leg we still have a chance. At Old Trafford, we have proved to be a great team and we shouldn't fear Manchester.

"It's going to be difficult but it would have been the same if the result was 2-2."

One reason it did not end that way was arguably because the Milan goalkeeper Dida failed to cover his near post when Rooney smacked home the winner and the Milan coach, Carlo Ancelotti, admitted as much yesterday. "Dida made great saves," he said. "The first goal wasn't an easy save because Cristiano Ronaldo was in front of him. Perhaps he should have covered the near post for the third goal."

What an insult   calling us a shit side



Kaka keep your brazilian ways 2 urself

see you on Wednesday

[JDB]

Say what yuh want Palos, Kaka's comments are positive. It says a lot about how far the club come.

I rememebr 10-12 years ago when United was playing Juve or Barcelona they were clearly inferior. Hard fighting, good in spots going forward but very naieve and always vulnerable on the counter-attack. They were a big European team in name and hype only.

Since about '97 when they hit Porto 4 they have really come into their own. There will be seasons when they don't get the results but that happens to all teams even the Madrids and Barcelonas that everybody love so much. After seeing them play Ruud-ball over the last few years in Europe this season is real refereshing.

Win lose or draw on Wednesday United play the most attractive ball in the Champion's league this year

One thing about Kaka is the oyuth honest he eh hold no water in he moth when he say ronaldo was playing lazy and he eh need to mamaguy manu to bring it he showing respect for a good team and rightly so but that doh mean he en goh bring the pain in the next leg but I feel man u go hold them not psychological plain admiration from a big baller people doh realise that alot of these big ballers have alot of respect for each other most times id the fans who wanna rip each other apart lol...by the way i maintain he better than ronaldo by a mile and the man have a turn of pace that people doh realise is just that he does create so much for others that he doh appear as individualistic as  others hes a boss...a real creative mind
