QUOTE (X-Offender @ Jul 28 2012, 01:22 PM)  Robinho won't play cause he had some problems with his passport and remained in Frankfurt. He should join the team in the next few days. So El Sha is our only striker?

QUOTE (X-Offender @ Jul 28 2012, 03:44 PM)  Maybe Cassano could play a few minutes. So all off the NT players are back?

QUOTE (Zed.D @ Jul 28 2012, 08:21 PM)  I hate time zones with a passion. can never make out how they work. I hate the different names for the time zones. Why can't there be just one? Everytime I see GMT or EST or whatever I never know which one it is. I had to look GMT up for God's sake, and EST is likely spelled wrong. And know KillerMax posts EDT, NEVER heard of it. Are we expect to know them all? (IMG: style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

(IMG: style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) (IMG: style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) I just mostly know CET, GMT and then there are the ones used by the americans, pacific, central and eastern GMT is the most commonly used and then preceeded by the - or + amount of hours

QUOTE (drucurl @ Jul 28 2012, 08:13 PM)  Boateng gets the F out (IMG: style_emoticons/default/yay.gif) ....finally. I wonder if he's ok though...he didn't even run on that last counter (IMG: style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) Why were you excited to see Boateng come off?

A couple of takeaways... I watched on ESPN and Twellman was one of the commentators... the guys is such a joke, cant even pronounce KPB haha kept saying KPG. Shows how biased he is... Him and Alexi Lalas should really be off television... makes us Americans look ignorant. (IMG: style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) (IMG: style_emoticons/default/mad.gif) (IMG: style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) Traore' is horrible, the guy can't do anything... only run... and sack trap. (IMG: style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) Emanuelson seems to have a scoring touch, his explosiveness in midfield is impressive, and he can generate a good amount of attacking steam. Perhaps as it was previously mentioned he could be converted into our other midfield runner.. Emanuelson- Montolivo- Noce Boa I thought our defenders looked decent, I would like to see Mesbah replaced with someone who can actually defend, and perhaps another center.. (Astori anyone?)... but we did have crosses in the box... which leads to the next point. We definately need a true CF, a big man like Dzeko would be ideal as we could add a bit of height up top, but someone to back Pato up in case of injury... a goal scorer.

QUOTE (X-Offender @ Jul 28 2012, 08:50 PM)  Boateng is a poor excuse of a trequartista. I feel ashamed that the legendary #10 is worn by someone like him. Montolivo did pretty well in front of the defense, never lost the ball and was pinpoint in his tackles. Antonini and Mesbah are horrible fullbacks. We need to sign a new LB ASAP! What's wrong with you man? Boateng is a scudetto champion = proven champion Milan also defeated the Champion's League Winners I'd say we're fine as we are (IMG: style_emoticons/default/cool.gif)

Currently watching the replay on a Chelsea TV stream and I have to say, that Traore guy is just awful, what were they thinking when they brought him in FFS?

QUOTE (Zed.D @ Jul 29 2012, 10:17 AM)  I agree with X-Off, Boateng wearing the #10 is plain wrong. why the **** did Cassano not take it? Exactly. It was perfectly fit for Cassano after Ibra left, yet someone completely inappropriate like Boateng gets it. It's like if Gattuso got the #10 after Rui Costa left, instead of Seedorf. QUOTE (han2503 @ Jul 29 2012, 12:02 PM)  Currently watching the replay on a Chelsea TV stream and I have to say, that Traore guy is just awful, what were they thinking when they brought him in FFS? Free agent, muscle player, ugly. In other words, Allegri's type. QUOTE (acid911 @ Jul 29 2012, 12:28 PM)  The sad part is they don't. (IMG: style_emoticons/default/sleep.gif) Ever. I can understand it's Chelsea TV, but these guys are harping up their players and downgrading even the EPL sides they play against, let alone us. Then you clearly haven't seen a Milan game on Milan Channel. (IMG: style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Then you clearly haven't seen a Milan game on Milan Channel. (IMG: style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Yep, Boateng should have gotten the #4 or even #7 now that Pato took the #9. But I think Cassano wanted to keep #99 for some reason, it's what he had at Samp as well. And yeah, you can't really complain about bias when you're watching a game on a club's dedicated channel. It's obvious they're going to favour their own team no matter what. QUOTE (X-Offender @ Jul 29 2012, 12:46 PM)  On a side note, I hate that frigging white collar on our jersey. I mean really, really hate it. Who the hell designs this stuff?! It's the only thing that I can't stand from our kits this season, not only is it white so it stands out like a mother, but it's unnaturally big, so it flaps around alot. Very ugly detail, at least if they wanted to make collars they should have been smaller and black with red accents

QUOTE (CrazyMilanFan @ Aug 5 2012, 12:53 AM)  wow nocerino first had some wonderful team play.. it is only pre season but we are looking good.. We'll see how we'll look in the coming friendlies against Real and Juve to see how in shape the players are. The guys coming back from the Euros all look good, Robinho also looking very lively and El Shaa is really starting to get involved more in our plays instead of just being there
