“We have established a hierarchy of goalkeepers and Carlo Ancelotti drew it up,” revealed general manager Galliani.
“I think that at this stage we can say we're starting with Kalac, then Abbiati while we wait to evaluate Dida's condition, as he is undergoing a recovery programme.”
Despite Kalac not directly comparable to the likes of his team mates, its a smart move. Think about it, Kalac had the most match experience of the three wearing the Milan jersey during recent times, he knows the team tactics better than the rest of the two. So we could start the season with him, while the Milan staff can evaluate Dida (whether he is still afraid of incoming ball or not) and give Abbiati more time in training to get him up the speed during the crucial mid half of the season. I personally want to see Abbiati wearing the Milan jersey as quick as possible, he had a fantastic season with Juve a few 2 years back and a great spell at Spain. For once in a long time, Milan have a good line-up of goalkeepers, we should never under estimate the importance of strong reserve goal keepers, just ask Chelsea :P.
