Kaka, CANNOT replace Kewell because they play in very different positions.
Though if you were talking about possible players from Milan, Gilardino would definately be up there in my list.

Kaka plays in a similar position as Kewell actually.
He plays a left sided attacking midfielder - but he is definately not a winger like HK. Kaka likes to cut in a lot from the left. He sometimes plays the support striker/attacking mid role.
Same position, different style of player.
Rafa confirms Italian interest
Liverpool manager Rafa Benitez has confirmed his liking for Juventus striker David Trezeguet.
The French international striker is set to be one of a plethora of Serie A stars who will quit the Italian game following the recent match-fixing scandal.
Juventus, Lazio and Fiorentina were all relegated to Serie B, while Milan must start with a 15-point deduction and none are likely to appear in Europe next term.
Now all four are bracing themselves for bids for all their star men - with permanent deals and loan moves in the offing.
Benitez has now thrown his hat into the ring and confirmed that Trezeguet was a player he liked.
"Trezeguet is a good player, the question is what kind of player do you need. We will look at what happens in Italy and see what we can do," he told The People.
"All the Juventus players are good players - Trezeguet, Zambrotta, a lot of them are good players for us and for other clubs in the world.
"They will now be a better price than they would have been three months ago."
Benitez admits that he would be more than happy to look at temporary deals if need be.
"There maybe possibilities for a loan deal and for me that is not a problem," Benitez added.
"If he is a good player and he is a professional, it's not a problem for me."

We were all set to sell Cisse and put that money towards a new striker, he got injured so we had to settle for a season long loan. That means we don’t have that money available that we anticipated. The Trezeguet. Situation would allow us to get a better striker on loan for the season, no money we haven’t got being risked and no risk of getting a player for high price on a high wage who may or may not settle in the Premiership, it makes perfect business sense.
For what its worth I am not as big a Trezeguet fan as many others, but he is a very good goal scorer. He is similar to Owen and Crespo in that he will play the furthest forward out of the strikers, predominately on the shoulder of the last defender, his movement is right out of the top draw, excellent finisher and very good at attacking a ball in the air. But despite being quite tall he isn’t very strong and isn’t aggressive, he doesn’t really drop deep and get involved with build up play much and isn’t really a back to goal striker like RVN or Crouch. But he will score goals in any league in the world because of his exceptional movement and finishing., for me he is very similar to Crespo.
We can offer him the chance to play in one of the top 3 leagues in the world, Champions League football, title ambitions, and a guaranteed first team spot. A loan deal would suit us best so Juventus may be keen to do business with us.
Its not exactly what I had in mind, but it makes a lot of sense and would be a good move in my opinion, he is defiantly a 20 league goals a season striker.

If he'll be a 20 goal a season stiker why don't you like him? I doubt he'd score 20 goal but I could be wrong
