Marcos Cafu believes knee surgery will add years to his career and that his injury problems are behind him.

“After the tempest comes the rainbow,” smiled the Milan star who has struggled with fitness worries and his father’s illness.

“These last four months have been terrible for me, but these problems have made me stronger. I will take part in my fourth World Cup, but my heart is beating as if it were my first.”

There were reports that the Brazilian would end his career at Sao Paolo, but the 34-year-old has no intention of hanging up his boots yet.

This week Milan doctor Massimiliano Sala stated that the former Roma man can play another eight years considering his overall fitness levels.

“It’s good to have this constitution. How about I play another decade instead of just eight years?” he joked.

Cafu went under the knife in Rio de Janeiro to correct a knee problem, but also had surgery on his nose and throat to ease his breathing.

“I am now a new man and soon I will be able to literally fly on the football field!”

8 years more?????

We're not even in the relegation zone, Lazio, Reggina and Fiorentina are all below us. And in only 2 games we have narrowed the gap with Inter to just 6 points, 2 derby victories and we're there. This is the start of a legendery title winning campaign.

[Poor_Sunyol]

Not as easy to win when you can't cheat.

[Beast]

exactly

[Super Pippo]

The fact that we are still winning and Inter are not proves perfectly that Milan weren't rigging the league in their favour in the first place.

[Beast]

oh ... i was so spot on in my Milan predicition


Sampdoria is beating Milan 1-0 with 20 minutes to go...
thats a nil - nil draw with Livorno,Lille,Siena.. and now...

talking about being competitve this season... they need a whole sale change..

[Beast]

crap Milan draw with a very clear handball ... how much did Silvio pay this time

[Raed]

I have no idea, but it doesn't matter. They are dropping a lot of points and getting them selves in deep trouble. Only if Inter would capitalise on that and catch up to Roma. They didn't show the match here for some reason. The coverage is getting worse on TLN .

EDIT: In addition to that, Sampdoria usually play well against big teams. Their coach was spot on with his predictions and mentality. Not even Ronaldinho will be able to do this team justice unless they replace the I-Beams and Pillars of that team.

[Beast]

well you can add to that another defeat today for Palermo in San Siro


... i've should have put money on my Milan prediction... they are buried by their own ignorance in handling their aged squad

wonder how Milan fans think now

MILAN, Oct 26 (SW) � Milan manager Carlo Ancelotti has admitted his strikers are suffering somewhat of a crisis, but insists that they will soon be back to top form.

The Rossoneri overcame a determined Chievo side on Wednesday night, with a Marek Jankulovski goal giving the Serie A contenders all three points.

�Sooner or later, this wasteful period will come to an end,� insisted Ancelotti.

�Alberto Gilardino and Ricardo Oliveira moved well in the first half and we created chances, but couldn�t convert them.

�This is an important win. Jankulovski is working well and always gaining in character. These are crucial goals for both his and our confidence.

�Our forwards will join in and contribute eventually. Now we can look forward to the Milan derby with the right spirit.�

The latest Italian press reports have linked Udinese hitman Vincenzo Iaquinta with a �10 million move to the Rossoneri in the January transfer window, despite Ancelotti declaring his side does not need re-enforcements.
