Things are not going too well...didn't see the match, but I've heard enough. Just been one bad season.
Do I have hope for the second leg...I must...I'm a football fan, what will we do if not hope??
But it's rather bleak. This time Hargreaves and Van Bommel in the centre line marking Kaka/Pirlo. Seedorf being less than full potential. Oli and Pippo up front....nope...don't look good. Why God...any team but Bayern...damn!!! Merda will be laughing their @$$ off for weeks...
We have two options for the return leg....
1. Throw everything at them...even Silvio's kitchen sink. Go for broke...to hell with whoever stands in our way. No DMF's. Gattuso playing RM, barely providing cover for Pirlo who has to fend off as much as he can. Kaka runs like his butt is on fire and Pippo if he can't score gets slapped by all defenders and gets them sent off...something beyond football will have to be done.
2. We play catenaccio...the ultimate Italian screwjob. Play deep, withdrawn bolt the door, ask Munich to come over and score. They are bamboozled coz they expect us to attack them with devil knows what. Pull in the sucker goal, with a blistering counter attack, or some lucky aerial ball or some sh!t. Basically a wierd version of the azzuri match against germany in the WC. It worked once, it might work again. Don't think Carlo's the man for it though. Would need Lippi or Capello. But we have the players.
Either way 6th consecutive time quarter finalists. Not too shabby by any standards especially if this is gonna be termed our worst season.
Sad about Paolo...this isn't the way....he went out of the Azzuri like this too. Even Sergio can't pull us out of this mire.
