  MilanMania : AC Milan 4 Fabulous Eras Part I   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
With Gren's and Liedholm's midfield play and Nordahl's devastating scoring punch (he led the league in scoring for a record 5 years), Milan finally conquered its long-sought fourth scudetto in 1950-51, winning three more before the decade was out.
In addition to the fabled GRENOLI, another foreign player from this period needs to be mentioned: the great Uruguyan midfielder Juan Alberto Schiaffino (acknowledged universally as one of the ten greatest south american footballers).
Towards the end of the decade, the arrival of the great Brazilian goal-scorer Jose Altafini (third-leading all time scorer for Milan) and a young lad from Alessandria by the name of Gianni Rivera would signal the beginning of a new era as Milan would finally conquer Europe and then the world.
