My point is the 3 Dutchmen weren't the only players in the team, and Milan didn't win just because of them. There were also Baresi, Maldini, Ancelotti, Massaro, etc... It was a team effort, which Sacchi put together. > These days there are far more than 3 foreigners on their books (as > there are for all the other top clubs)

Benny's fantasy that Milan was a bunch of locals with a smattering of cheaply bought imports that were developed by Milan is complete rubbish. Milan paid top dollar for that team. It was money wisely spent as they enjoyed much success. Others have spent equal or more for less returns on the pitch. It will be interesting to see how Real's season pans out

They were a contrtibuting factor, like Sacchi, and 8/11's of the team, wich was Italian.
