LOL, you just made that up. It's three yellow cards for every suspension. Zlatan will be regularly on the pitch against Parma.

This is all according to FM, which (at least for the world's larger leagues) I take as fact.

In England, it's a one match suspension after 5 yellows, two matches after an additional 5, and three matches after every further group of 5. And for reds, it's one match for the first red, two matches for the second red, three matches for the third, and so on...

In both Germany and Spain, it's a one match suspension for every 5 yellows, and a one match suspension for every red.

Then there's Italy...here goes:
One match suspension after the first four yellows.
One match suspension after the next four yellows.
One match suspension after the next four yellows.
One match suspension after the next three yellows.
One match suspension after the next two yellows.
One match suspension for each additional yellow card.

And...a one match suspention for each red.

I wonder if anyone's ever made it past 17 yellows so that each yellow basically acts as a red...

Of course, reds can always result in additional match bans if the play was blatantly dangerous or the player was throwing punches or deliberate kicks at another player.

What worries me is their wingers against our FBs....

@ x-off, I'd like to see Seedorf in the CM position instead of one of the DMs. Rino, Flamini and VB all in the same midfield, now that's ugly...

I'd give Pato and Ibra another run out, they need to learn how to play together. Cassano playing behind them for me. Robinho has been playing non stop for weeks now, he could use a rest, while Cassano would be better at supporting them imo, even if you say otherwise (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

Allegri has to do something, or this match will soon slip out of our hands.

Bayern Munich have confirmed that Milan have signed Mark Van Bommel.

Milan had initially ruled out a move for the Holland international partly on account of his age, but a series of injuries to their midfielders has brought about a rethink.

Adriano Galliani and Ariedo Braida apparently travelled to Munich yesterday to hold talks with Van Bommel who is being represented by Mino Raiola, the agent who brokered Zlatan Ibrahimovic's switch from Barcelona to Milan in the summer.

Van Bommel's contract in Germany was due to expire in six months' time and Bayern intend to pursue alternatives rather than extend the 33-year-old's existing deal.

"I leave Bayern with a heavy heart but with my head held high," he said.

Initial reports claim Van Bommel's contract is only until the end of this season and expires on June 30, 2011.

The veteran midfielder is the third new arrival at Milanello this winter after Antonio Cassano and Urby Emanuelson.

Tottenham.. easy!? they're no Barca but if you think it'll be easy, you're wrong.

To say they're easy is just as naive as them saying we're easy. It will be a tough match no doubt, I don't fancy us at theirs but if we can do well in the 1st leg we should be set.

May I suggest...

Ibra is probably his brother or something. Better not say anything stupid. Hopefully he doesn't know tae-kwon-do.

the zlatan hate is obvious.

He played for Inter and Juve for one thing and he's arrogant. Milan fans have gotten used to world class players without egos on our team for years so now its a surprise to see one and they don't like it.

as always Seedorf does one good thing and it'll be enough for him to be a starter for the next game... and help us be The Predictables!

Thanks for that one (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)


Hey, nice to have you on the forum, and I tend to agree with that since he was mentioning his time in Barca as well, so maybe Sacchi criticised him then as well... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)
