Milan-Inter row intensifies 

Sunday 27 May, 2007 ::: channel4.com

Relations between the ‘cugini’ are at an all-time low, with Massimo Moratti and Carlo Ancelotti exchanging barbed comments over Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

There was controversy this week when Milan Coach Ancelotti said a star player who “nobody could suspect” had approached them looking for a transfer.

“If I revealed his name, there would be chaos,” he smiled in his Press conference. All the major Italian newspapers insisted it was Ibrahimovic, who has criticised Inter for dragging their heels over a contract improvement.

When asked about this story, Nerazzurri patron Moratti vented his fury at Sky Italia television.

“I really don’t think that Ibra can go to Milan,” he said. “I definitely did not appreciate Ancelotti’s comments.

“I’m not sure at this stage what is true and what was built up by the media. In the past we have exchanged players with Milan to avoid excessive wage deals, but I don’t see any likelihood that could happen now.”

This message was relayed to Ancelotti and the tension between the two clubs grew even further.

“I wasn’t trying to be funny,” said the Rossoneri Coach. “Moratti has nothing to do with the ‘beyond suspicion’ player I was talking about. The newspapers are making these links, but I never named anyone. I never said Ibrahimovic.”

If Milan are not behind it, then what is undeniable is that Ibrahimovic is unhappy with the Nerazzurri.

He caused controversy this week by telling newspaper ‘Libero’ that Juventus were more organised and a better squad, partly because of disgraced former director general Luciano Moggi.

“You always need someone like Moggi in an organisation,” Zlatan reiterated in front of Sky Italia television cameras this evening.

“He helped me out a lot when I was at Juve. Here at Inter things are going well, but one can always do better.”

How stupid can Moratti be? (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

I wouldn't be so quick to jump on the 'Inter suck' bandwagon.

With the team they have, I would be almost surprised if they don't win the Champions League sooner than later.

No, really, stop you're killing me here!!!!!!! (IMG:http://www.coolsmileys.net/happy/rofl2.gif)

If you open your mouth, it'll just come back to kick you in the ***.

If that were the case then Inter would have at least reached the semi final in the last 3 years since everybody falls into a fit of laughter at the suggestion of Inter reaching a final before every season starts.

Btw I see your father does not know of Milan's DNA then (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/cool.gif)

As wrong as it may seen, we were involved in Illegal activity, they weren't.

They were the highest placed 'fair' team last year, so they deserved the title, they were also the highest placed 'fair' team this year.

Not really. Inter where the team that have ties to 'certain' people at Telecom Italia, the company that taped the calls.

Coincidentally NO calls what so ever come out involving Inter despite countless times now refs and the previous desegnator have come out and said that Facchetti pressured them as much as the others.

Now if Moratti's people can pull strings in telecom Italia the company that held the tapes of the calls, do you really think that they would release any tapes involving Inter? (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

And regardless of this, the only 'incriminating' thing they found on us was someone that was mearly a NOTHING at the club complaing AFTER a match had been played because of Sheva and Crespo having goal incorrectly disallowed.

The only rule we broke was that a person from the club which wasn't even a board memeber spoke to the referee designator, infact we weren't even in court for match fixing we were in court for unsportsman conduct

Kurt has a good point. Inter have a strong team. Along with Chelsea the best squads in the world IMO. They can win the CL in the next years if Moratti bring some top players like Riquelme or some top-class for 1 or 2 places they miss.

I mean, they can. It's possible. (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

But 42 years without winning a CL with all that $$$ they have spent it's an outstanding record. (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/cool.gif)

What Inter misses and will never have it is the president. Moratti is like a child, he behaves in that way.

Silvio has the respect of all the players, fans, everybody coz he's a real gentlemen and a smart person.

While Silvio tries to talk about the proffesional perspective of football, while he goes to congrutulate Inter for winning the match (against Milan), on the other hand Moratti keeps on talking like a 11-year-old child about Milan "they didn't deserve CH.L", moreover when we signed Ronaldo he said "we (inter) got Ibra, who's better than Ronaldo" and that seemed to me like a kid saying to his friend "my uncle is stronger than yours"

And finally, when Silvio goes to the dressing room and gives a talk to the players they all got encoureged coz he is Don Silvio Berlusconi. While if Moratti goes to dressing room he is like a normal person which can't motivate his players, and most of times he can't even keep them at Inter.

Great post. Everything you said is spot on! (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/cool.gif) Inter are called merda for a reason.
