Milan Vice-President Adriano Galliani has stated that Carlo Ancelotti’s job relies on his results this season.

The tactician is in his sixth year with the Rossoneri and both Marco Van Basten and Frank Rijkaard have been paired with their former club.

Ancelotti insisted over the weekend that he wanted to be the club’s Sir Alex Ferguson with a 20-year spell on the bench, but the San Siro officials may have other ideas.

“We have always felt a deep affection for Ancelotti, since he was one of our players,” Galliani told Sky Italia.

“However, it is logical and evident that the confirmation of any Coach depends on the results he achieves, it has always been this way,” added the former Lega Calcio chief.

Milan are currently in fifth place after the 1-0 home win over Atalanta, but the Via Turati club has already started planning their next signings, which Galliani explains are discussed with the team veterans.

“Milan are a democratic club, the new signings are agreed to by the management, the Coach and the veterans,” explained the official.

“I have always asked Paolo Maldini and Alessandro Costacurta their opinion before buying a new player, I think that is normal.

“That is how it works here, club, Coach and veterans, so no one can blame only one of the parties involved if things don’t work out as expected,” concluded the Rossonero.

Frank might have made a mistake against liverfool, but Barca are still top of La Liga. He also managed to get one over carlo last year (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Fact of the matter IMO is that carlo's time in Milan is up. He has been quite successful but again IMO he should have won more with the squad he had at his disposal.

Barca are only top of La Liga because all the other top teams are terribly inconsistant, if there was a team that was steam rolling through the league like Inter and Man U are doing in their respective leagues then they wouldn't be on top.

And Rijkaard didn't pull anything on Carlo, we should have won the game against them in the Camp Nou but had a good goal disallowed for no reason and our strikers where all guilty of wasting almost 5 sitters in the San Siro. Barca only went through because they defended in both legs and they scored a goal because of a moment of brilliance from R10 not because they where better then us over the 2 legs.

And yes I agree that it is probably time for change even though I love Carlo, but right now I don't see anyone who could actually be an upgrade on what we already have, except for Mourinho but as I said he will most probably clash with Silvio.

Plus this season can only be blamed on the management and no one else imo.

IIRC in the home game against Barca Jaap Stam had R10 in his back pocket, so Frank responds by playing R10 through the middle. That move resulted in R10 setting up the goal for Barca, so like I said Frank got one over carlo.
