Smart move but he might be too lazy to be a part of Milan's style. He is more of the, "Give the ball to my feet and I will make things happen" kind rather than the "I will come and get the ball and make things happen".

So i don't know how effective he will be unless of course, Ronaldinho makes a difference up front - first by losing weight, then by losing his markers.
