All Milan Europa League matches talk here. Starting with today's game against Dudelange.

What is wrong with Hakan? It's the second match in a row that he is sucking.

I told you so (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) . But well, I haven't been listening.

Deserved.

This team is a mess.

I disagree. Atalanta started pushing forward, that's true, but it really isn't a deserved draw, we lost the win rather unlucky and in a typically tragicomic way.

Leonardo should start consider sacking Gattuso. What have we achieved thus far?

A loss to Napoli after being 2 up
Win in the last second against a terrible, terrible Roma side
Draw against a crappy Cagliari
Draw at home against a struggling Atalanta

But it's not just the results. It's the game that's lacking. I mean, we're so predictable. We mainly rely on simple passes and long balls. We're not able to play horizontally without losing the ball. The players are too static, and the spirit is just not there.

I feel like a player of Higuain's calibre is just being wasted here. He should have never signed for us for his own sake.

It's too soon.

The game man, the game. We don't have an identity. Or rather, we do have one, but it's that of a provincial side. And that's reflected in our mentality and vice-versa.

How does a team like Lazio with such an average line-up on paper play so well? They might lose all the big matches, but they win most of those games that count against the average/poor sides, hence they're always fighting for that 4th spot every season.

It's because Inzaghi has taught them how to play as a unit. We're just all over the place instead. Gattuso just isn't the man for this job I'm afraid.

I disagree. Lazio have it easier because they're a different team to begin with. They're a smaller team with a different mentality. The pressure at Milan, the expectations and the whole team setup is different. We haven't been top for years but it's still a big club, whereas Lazio turned/stayed this proud small team happy to grab anything above 6th place. They have a integrated squad with players who have been playing for them for years. On paper only Higuain and perhaps Romagnoli are better players; their midfield allows them to play compact, speedy and offensive football.

We are predictable because we have so little to work with. Our midfield and our wings (bar Suso of course) are disintegrated and limited, which surely isn't up to Rino.
