But I don't think they are the same mistakes.

I blame much of what's happening on the management. Negotiating with key players contracts for months and months with no real achievement in their last year is amateur hour.


Man, you?re really fixated with these renewals. And what do they have to do with what we?re talking about?

You think it's mentally irrelevant for the team and the mentioned players if their future is uncertain or not?

We're talking about two players. If the rest of the team is so fragile that the uncertainty of two teammates conditions their performances then we're talking about a bunch of amateurs. I doubt that's the case.

Simple, when we have our full squad, we are an interesting team.

Said nasty things to the ref. Out of nowhere. Because his ego is bigger than the team. Tw@t.

1-3 FT

3 vital points. Honestly thought we were going to waste this after that red card. Did well to defend the result.

Didn't watch today as I couldn't

What was the performance like? Any improvements?

As for Ibra, apparently he didn't say anything nasty to the ref. He just complained. Why do our players get sent off for this? We've even had our captain yellowed in the past for complaining, and he actually is allowed to do that

Anyway, we should have Mandzukic available i the next round.

X-off, what is up with you and Ibra. The man literally is 70% responsible for us being remotely competitive this season. He's not perfect, never was. But the man deserves respect

Nothing too flashy but we controlled the game in the first half and it looked like an easy win. In the second Parma seemed to push more and after Ibra's red card we parked the bus but still defended well.

I don't think he's reliable anymore. We should let him go, but that's just my personal opinion.

As for the red card, he should have kept his mouth shut. But if indeed he just complained then it's on the ref for being a pathetic loser. He's the same ref who Conte complained about a couple of months ago for wanting to be a "protagonist" on the pitch.

Apparently this is what he said

Ibrahimovic to Maresca: "So you don't give a damn about what I say? It looks strange to me eh."

BS red card, for no other reason to be as you said, the focus of the game



And I disagree about Ibra. Not about him being unreliable. I agree on that part in terms of what his body can still take. I think we made a huge mistake not bringing in someone who can at least take some of the burden off, especially when we knew that it would be a non-stop season with games practically every 3 days without rest.

The fact that we kept playing him in every game up to November until his body broke down speaks to the error we made in terms of managing Ibra. You don't play a 35 year old every 3 days, let alone a 40 year old

On the other hand, I personally think that he still a hugely important figure in this team. He is our talisman, and he's a huge reason for the amazing turn-around we made from where we were last season to now. You might say we f@cked up a huge chance to win the scudetto this season, but we had a lot of things going against us. It wasn't just Ibra who kept getting injured but practically the rest of the team. It is a fact that we have not had a full squad to choose from since that day in November against Napoli. We've had to play players out of position, have had to deal with players getting Covid in important moments, anf the league didn't help us out by postponing matches like they've done for Inter and Napoli, even when we had to play Calabria in midfield

We can b!tch and whine all we like, but Pioli has steered us through some tough times this season, and we're still hanging on

We have to be as perfect as possible from now to the end of the season. But all of Juve, Napoli and Atalanta have stumbled when it mattered as well. That's why we're still second even after the slight slump we've been going through

Anyway, watching the replay on Milan TV. Certainly much better than last week. Still too many loose passes in key areas imo, but much better than last week

We were good. Ofcourse, nothing flashy, but that's expected given that this team hasn't played with each other since a moment.

If we can keep consistently this team, we'll get the 4th place, that I think we deserve this season.

I'm going to be honest, players protesting to the ref can't be condoned. The ref is the law, whether we like it or not, and while some refs can take the lip, some can't.

The game is theirs to be officiated, as best they can, and while they'll make errors, players making snotty comments to them helps no one.

Red card a bit extreme, yes, but a ref's job is hard enough as it is without players trying to demean them.
