Shame..just a bleeding shame. Even worse, it's a disgrace. And for some time I thought it was because we lost, but it isn't. It's even worse. He was wearing the Captain's arm band for f_ck's sake!! (IMG: style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

Did you see the way he behaved even when he got booked, constantly punching the floor? I've seen refs that would book you again for something like that for dissent. This guy doesn't deserve the Captaincy he doesn't even deserve to be in Milan, even after all these years.
To do something like that is pathetic.

Funny thing is that it took all you lot all this while to see/understand this. (IMG: style_emoticons/default/sleep.gif) I would not go as far to say that he should not be in the team, he should be, but not as captain. He is noway near captaincy material. Ambrosini, even though he a very big step down from our previous armband wearers, still is a million or two mile ahead of Gattuso. I dread to imagine what the team players would be thinking (subconsciously, or otherwise) of when their captain is punching the floor like a mad man. Not good. Not good, at all. It practically throws all rationality and game plan out of the head seeing your captain behaving like that. This, and the street fights he had with Joe Jordan twice. It would been far less painful if he was not wearing the captain's armband at that time. (IMG: style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) A captain's behavior reflects on the team, after all. And then some people say he was treated unfairly be Leo. Do we even know what went on in the locker room after that inter 0-4 match where Gattuso got worked up and carded? What Gattuo said or how he behaved with Leo (and vice versa). (IMG: style_emoticons/default/mad.gif) Not to mention his performances were really nosediving last season, this year at least he is trying to get back to his destroyer self. But during Leo's time he deserved the bench, and Ambrosini starting ahead of him all year long. Leonardo was far from a saint or a scientists, he had his flaws too, but I won't hold him up on Gattuso's case last year. Rino lost the cool in the derby defeat. And brought it upon himself. And for today, disturbing behaviors yes, and needless fodder for the media, but if the club/UEFA takes action, Gattuso can serve his sentence and get back to business. Just keep the armband away from him. And to think it says "Respect" under it in the image Jack Bauer posted above.

Sometimes having a loose cannon works. I liked it when Rino told off a few Spurs players. It gets the crowd worked up, the players stoked..and all that is cool.
But it has to be within limits. He just lost it..and made AC Milan look bad.

That's the most astonishing thing for me. I mean, if it was just a new player I would say kick him out and it'd be normal, like OK who cares? But to be able to say that for a player that has offered a lot to Milan and I used to like... that just shows how unacceptable what he did is. The worst thing, nothing will be done about it.

Okay, I get it, his behaviour was unacceptable and a disgrace. But hey, let's not push it too far. AC Milan has history and tradition, I don't think this incident can permanently alter the image Milan has. It would be too easy.

Yeah, and of course we all knew what Gattuso was like, no-one has suddenly realised it now. Unless they've only been following Milan for like a year. It's just that even for Gattuso what happened last night tops anything else that he has ever done.
Remember the outcry on here when CR7 lightly pushed Pep Guardiola? Gattuso pushed Jordan and actually headbutted him as well. Let alone the ridiculous antics at Crouch. Sorry Gattuso put you're a typical bloke with small man syndrome, get out of the club. He was practically trying to fight our coaching staff and Flamini at the end to try to get to him. In all honesty I'd pick Jordan above Gattuso in a fight, I don't know what he was trying to prove.
Just because we are AC Milan isn't an excuse to forgive this kind of behaviour.

QUOTE (kurtsimonw @ Feb 16 2011, 02:00 AM)  They were speaking in Scottish? I wasn't aware they had their own language. Like Michael Mcintyre says, the Scottish make everything their own. Even the language (IMG: style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) I think all of you are going overboard with this! Not trying to defend Gattuso or anything, I'm a fan, but if you've been reading my posts lately you'd know that I've been one of his biggest critics this season. But come on people!!!! Everyone here knew what he was like. Did we all forget the shows against Shalke, Juve and especially Inter last season, which was even worse then this, he actually threw the amband to the floor. He's a loose canon and it's not something new. And the fact that everyone is getting on his back for it now to me is ridiculous. Especially after seeing the match last night. Crouch and Jordan had been riling him up all game. Crouch practically jumping all over him hand knees and everything else on every occasion that he got and then exchanging barbs with him at every opportunity. Jordan obviously said some very colourful things to him as well. Sure we can all say that he should have kept his cool and all that, but I doubt any of us here would stand for some of the things going down on that pitch last night. I agree 100% with kurt here. Jordan should have never got in his face like that, he's part of the coaching staff and last time I checked he shouldn't be coming out of his area and mouthing off to players, simple. Gattuso has done some really drastic things over the years, and that's just the way he is. But I think everyone is over reacting here. It was not just his faul, Spurs played a dirty game imo, especially in the 2nd half when they lost control of the game, they saw Rino as the mental weak link and poked him until he blew up. No one here is a saint so let's not condemn someone for doing something when we probably wouldn't stand for the BS Spurs threw at Rino last night. Punching the floor? He's done it before getting bent out of shape for it? Why let it bother us now. Kicking Rino out of the team? Why? When he's done things of this nature before and no one gave a flying sh!t about it. I think we should all chill and instead of point fingers look at the big picture and imo I'l give 50% of the blame to Jordan himself, the picture posted above shows a clear picture of this, he's not some innocent senior citizen getting attacked by the thug (IMG: style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

UEFA Open Disciplinary Probe Against Gennaro Gattuso; Italian Media Claims Joe Jordan Racially Abused Milan MidfielderQUOTE Milan midfielder Gennaro Gattuso's outburst against Tottenham coach Joe Jordan has landed him in hot water with UEFA, who confirmed disciplinary proceedings will be opened to look into his actions.
Telegraph.co.uk reports UEFA's Control and Disciplinary Body will probe Gattuso's antics before and after the final whistle as Tottenham won 1-0 at San Siro.
The Italian midfielder clashed with Jordan twice, and appeared to headbutt him post match as a melee ensued on the touchline.
Despite apologising for his actions after the game in which he said "I lost control", the midfielder is likely to face a ban from UEFA.
Sky Sport 24 claim Gattuso's reaction was sparked after Jordan allegedly called him a "f***ing Italian Bast*rd.
After the game Gattuso said there was a heated discussion, but he was reluctant to explain what had been said.
"Jordan had been annoying me all the second half, but this does not justify my actions," Gattuso said.
"I don't come to tell what he was saying, but I was nervous because of his [Jordan's] attitude.
"What language were we speaking? In Scottish..." source: goal.com
