QUOTE (CrazyMilanFan @ Nov 2 2008, 03:56 PM)  he is not in UEFA squad That's what I thought too but.. "The coach also talked about the injured players and the Alexandre Pato's start to the season: "I think that both Nesta and Senderos could come back next week against Braga. Pato still has some limits, which he is trying to eliminate in this period. He especially needs to learn to be more ruthless and confident inside the area."" - Carlo so I don't know |

QUOTE (Rossoneri7 @ Nov 2 2008, 09:54 PM) A lot could be said about this encounter ... But the 3 points remains the priority when you consider this team's push for the Scudetto. I think Milan played rather well, being disciplined and precise throughout the game. The possession football and the movement from one side to another is also a highlight. Also, Seedorf was the highlight of the match, he brought the team together and produced a real good display. Bonera - Favalli were good !! The weakest points of the team, but they kept Napoli's threat at the minimum. But also thanks to the hard work of Ambrosini and Gattuso who really ran the show in the engine room. About the penalty .. I think it wasn't a penalty, simple because the player's arm was close to his body and didn't have it stretched out .. And Ronaldinho's freekick, sure the ball got deflected into goal, but that ball was a beauty when watching it on replay for three different angles. All in all, it was a heated encounter .. And consider the 90 mins of game time, Milan had the game within their grasps .. By the end of half time, Milan should have had 2 or 3 goals ! very nicly done the summary or review of the game |

my ratings:
Abbiati - 6.5 Looked shaky at times... but did pull off a couple of good saves. Zambro - 7.5 good pace going forward Bonera - 7.5 showing real professionalism lately.. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Favalli - 7 good performance when called up like this Janku - 7.5 went on some explosive runs, earned the red card (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) Gattuso - 8.5 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) so much energy coming off him (IMG:style_emoticons/default/king.gif) Ambro - 7 decent game, lost focus at times Seedorf - 7 despite the absence of Pirlo, he won the ball in midfield couple of times Kaka - 7.5 created good spacing through out the game, unlucky on the post.. he can score so many penalties consistently Ronaldinho - 8 Scored the goal and unlucky to be denied by an amazing save in the first half Boreillo - 6.5 Not impressed with his "Gila" showing. |

QUOTE (zdrossoneri @ Nov 3 2008, 02:39 AM) For some weird reasons he can't be himself when Ronaldinho's on the pitch... also I doubt if his teammates passed the ball to him more than 2 or 3 times. but he wasn't good and this time even I will admit it. that ******* header should have went in! Thank you. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sleep.gif) He's a kid, and you know what, this miss will only do him good. Bring him some much needed experience as well as build his nerves. He's lucky to still be playing in Serie A (ask Paloschi), and the great player he is, I'm sure he's soaking it all in to explode when his time comes. That missed chance, however, was just meh. I literally celebrated while he was about to head it, knowing he can't miss from there. QUOTE (zdrossoneri @ Nov 3 2008, 02:39 AM) Even 3 points can't make me feel better after almost 70 minutes of sh1tty Milan. we're not convincing at all but we're winning. kinda strange. Neither does it me, believe me! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) But I'll play shitty and win 3 points than play good and lose all, any given Sunday! QUOTE (Tennie @ Nov 3 2008, 02:39 AM) Pazienza's arms were both well away from his body and not in 'natural' positions. The commentary...well, I disagree. It was harsh because it was unlucky for the Napoli player. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) It wasn't intentional from him. But the referee made the right call, and so did you. 99/100 it'd be a penalty, a player playing on world level should learn to keep his hands away from the ball. QUOTE (MizNelson @ Nov 3 2008, 02:35 AM) From what I've heard, Iezzo was a rock in goal today. We're still making opposing league GKs look Buffonesque. He was. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) And you should see it. Sell Abbiati. Buy Iezzo (weird name and all). |

QUOTE (MizNelson @ Nov 2 2008, 11:57 PM) Fishdoll owner: We're happy to FINALLY be atop the table, yet it wasn't in the fashion that we'd hoped, with generally poor play and an own goal. As long as we get the points we cannot complain too much about our display. We sure have to be sharper and more decisive but tonight we got the 3 points and we'll be able to work on that in peace. |

Y'know, it just hit me that we're in FIRST PLACE without either Nesta or Pirlo (aside from a couple of the early games) having played. If someone told me this six months ago, I wouldn't have believed them.

Yeah, but it brings out the naysayers: "Oh, Milan wouldn't be in first place without an own goal, Napoli had 10 men," and other such rigamarole. I want us to erase doubts from people's minds. |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mellow.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) QUOTE (MizNelson @ Nov 3 2008, 03:25 AM) Yeah, but it brings out the naysayers: "Oh, Milan wouldn't be in first place without an own goal, Napoli had 10 men," and other such rigamarole. I want us to erase doubts from people's minds. Oh, that's not a problem. If I were you I'd say funk the naysayers. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) They were always there when we last won the league. When we won the CL in 2003 and 2007, and they sure as hell will be there when we finish this season as champions. Tell them we've won 11 out of 12 matches running, how much have you won? Sure they'll say they were against lesser opponents, but in my humble opinion, Milan's biggest challenge has been overcoming these smaller pests - the Juves, Romas, Fiorentinasand inters we can handle. You see, I'm a man of simple tastes! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif) As long as Milan win the league and the UEFA cup, and Gila finishes as top scorer in Serie A, I'm set, baby! As an extra topping throw in both inter and Juve missing out on CL next season, if you feel generous, but that's it. QUOTE (KillerMax @ Nov 3 2008, 03:31 AM) And I wanna be the king of my own world... Which I'm sure you are. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) Aren't you? QUOTE (Portikins @ Nov 3 2008, 03:36 AM) 3 years. 3 years without being in the 1st place. Forza Milan! I was looking forward to your comment. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/devil.gif) Forza Milan! |

QUOTE (acid911 @ Nov 2 2008, 05:44 PM) Which I'm sure you are. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) Aren't you? We are top of Serie A, we played with desire and determination, our players were sweating blood on the pitch against such an exciting and young team and I honestly can't complain. If anything, I'll have to praise our players for such a show. This was a match that could have gone either way and we knew it before it even started. Now that we won, I'm only grateful. I don't need to wish that we won like this or that. Don't need to wish anything. We're already leading the table. At least until next match-week. FORZA MILAN!! |
