Not really, this was our 17th game. But we do need consistency if we want to reach 4th place. It's still highly possibly but not if we keep playing like this.

I thought we'd played more than that! Obviously not. But the way we're playing, the only thing we're going to do is move down the table, not up it. Atalanta? Come on. (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

And it's funny that some guys in this forum laugh at Liverpool CL/PL situation...  (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

That's me! (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

This same team has won 2 CL's and and a Scudetto being runners up once and twice respectively. You can't say they are of the same quality as Liverpool, you just can't! (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) Most of them might be "done" but if we had a team as talented as Liverpool's we'd be fighting for relegation now!

edit: I meant: Most of them are "done". They cannot compete for a c'ship. But the gap in quality between Milan's and Liverpool's first XI (when they both play at 100%) is immense. And this Liverpool will never win the EPL. They need 10 new players to do it. Their bench is even worse than ours...

But instead of looking and comparing us to Liverpool we should do that with Inter. Improve ourselves and not playing for the same cup every year since Calciopoli.

We look like a pile of shite this season. That's the truth. And you can quote this shite whenever you want. I just don't care.

Yes, Inter are our opponents, I only talked about Liverpool in the EPL thread.

This season we are crap but it doesn't scare me so much. I still think we will reach 4th place. The thing is that our future looks black!! We need like 10 players in order to be able to compete for the c'ship next season and that means 14 players should come in considering that some will flop... It's just not possible. And that is sad cause in my view, it means that we won't be able to compete for the scudetto the next season for sure and maybe not even the one after that!

Not always. You've seen Milan's dark late 90's... I don't want to re-live such a period and it looks like we are going down the same road.

It is exactly the same: An old team that no one wanted to admit it was old because we loved it. Until it was inevitable...

If it happens it happens man , its not like any of us can stop it. Unless you you have a time machine and go back in time and shoot Morrati & prevent calciopoli from ever happening (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

But it wont happen , and if it does I'll buy you pizza when you're in Drama again. (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/cool.gif)

I swear man just one more good transfer like pato and we'll be set. Someone for defence like a LB would be good to cover for janku when he is injured. Favalli is great and all but we need pace on the wings.

goal.com: AC Milan ratings

Kalac – 6: In truth Kalac did not have a worthwhile save to make all game. He was faultless on both of Atalanta’s goals.

Bonera – 5.5: Given a real run-around by Langella and made very little impact as an attacking force either.

Nesta – 5.5: Poor game from one of the world’s best defenders. Fell hook, line and sinker for Langella’s dummy on the equalising goal, and had a rocky night.

Kaladze – 5.5: Kaladze had been a rock for 60 minutes of the game until a quite horrendous error gifted Atalanta the winner. If it hadn’t been for this mistake Kaladze probably would have got a rating of 7/7.5. Unfortunately this is how it works. If you are an angel all your life and you commit murder, you still go to prison.

Favalli – 5: I was never a fan of Favalli when he was in his prime – even less so now he is in his mid-30s. At fault for the first goal.

Gattuso – 6.5: Much improved performance from Gattuso who at least showed signs of returning to form. He is still lacking the fire and energy that we have come to know from him though. Will this ever return?

Seedorf – 6: Flattered to deceive did Seedorf tonight. He always threatened to produce some brilliance but it never quite came off. Was unlucky not to earn an equaliser at the death as his piledriver was brilliantly saved by Coppola.

Pirlo – 8: Absolutely brilliant once again. Sprayed passes around the pitch all game and was the man behind all of Milan’s first half dominance. At one point I counted five 30-yard passes to a team-mate’s feet within the space of five minutes. Genius!

Kaka – 6.5: Electric in the first half, but went missing in the second, despite an excellent late turn and shot that forced a save out of Coppola.

Pato – 6: Disappointing game from the youngster. Showed some explosive bursts in the first half, but he missed a glorious one-on-one and barely had a kick after the break.

Gilardino – 5.5: What can you say about Gilardino? He just isn’t a Milan player - simple as that. His lack of technical quality just doesn’t suit the Rossoneri. He is not on the same wavelength as the likes of Kaka, Seedorf and Pirlo.

Substitutes: Ronaldo - 6, Oddo – 4.5, Gourcuff - NA
*

What they are saying about Gilardino here is what I have been saying since the first day he came. A 20 million euro loss. The guy doesn't fit the Milan mold. I don't care if he's on the team but he is not a first choice. just watching this guy game in and game out is the most boring display from a forward in any major team. He just stands there just trips over himself. Our squad tactically needs a top forward upfront. We said Torres but No we have Gilardino. What about Ibrahamovic? No we have Gilardino. What about Van Nistelroy? No we have Gilardino. What about Luca Toni? No we have Gilardino.

Pato is still young but he did have little flashes of quality out there today. I still think he works better with a Ronaldo than a player like Gilardino. Gilardino is standing there waiting to get the perfect pass. Pato and Ronaldo are finding creative ways to work together to break apart defenses.

Because nobody can judge how good a player will be in a new team. I presume we bought him as he was young, Italian and did very well at Parma.

We could have signed Torres and he failed miserabley, you just don't know these things. Look at Chelsea, they bought arguabley the best striker in Europe, and he's been a waste of time.
