Through the years, I'v never doubted Ancelotti. He was never a perfect coach, but he has certainly improved a lot and it is absolutely not true that he doesn't have fresh ideas for the team. I think he did his job greatly last season and if Juve hadn't cheated, we would have won the Scudetto by a big margin. And you all know what happened in the CL. Barca won the game in San Siro, we play 3 days after, they rest for a week, we lose 3-4 key players to injury, we play them, we have a perfectly normal goal disalowed and we are out.

But that's not what I wanna talk about in this topic. I wanna talk about how perfectly Ancelotti is using the rotation system and how well players have responded to it so far. He keeps every single player hungry enough to do well, and it's working wonders for us so far. I mean if we keep going like this, I don't see us getting tired by the end of season as much as last year. Last year Seedorf played in every single game if you remember and that made him tired and also affected his motivation to do well. But what happens this year? Gourcuff, the 20 year old gets the nod from Ancelotti over Seedorf in Milan's opening CL match and he does a perfect job and also scores. Then Carletto plays Seedorf the next game, and sure enough he scores to prove why he should be in the starting 11. This is perfect for a team. I see us achieving great things this season if we continue on like this. Forza Milan! (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/king.gif)

I already read that!!!! But I don't get it ... I have a certain opinion about that game and people feel like defending Milan like I'm a Giuve fan attacking them ...

I just said I blame Carlo for the mentality he (did not) passed to the players!!!  ... ofcourse it's their fault too since they were on the bloody field and ofcourse I'm not saying Carlo is useless!!!!

But it seems like I can't say that stuff here ... only "God was against us" is allowed!!! (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

For some reason dst, when it's you making comments like these you bring a smile to my face. (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

And you are right, maybe Carlo didn't do what he was supposed to do during that half time break, which is to keep all the players fired up, but I really doubt that. As I said in some other post, I'm also sure that while in half time Carlo didn't say to the players "we're 3 nil up, you guys don't worry, this one is ours. You go out there have some fun, relax even".

Personally I don't blame Carlo for the Istanbul night, I mostly see that as the player's fault for losing their concentration, even if it was for a split second, you should never lose your concentration in big matches like that, it was practically suicidle to do that.

I do however fault him for the Deportivo game, that one yes, I think it was partly his fault, and still I would say that the players also had a part in that self implosion.
