sorry i thought it was on the 31st of july
Posted by: Portikins Aug 18 2007, 06:45 PM
Thank fvck Dani Alves will probably be in Chelsea in the 31.
Sevilla have a great team even without him but Alves... he's something else.
Posted by: zdrossoneri Aug 18 2007, 07:28 PM
We're gonna get our @sses kicked by Sevilla! 
they scare the hell out of me. somehow a reminder of Lyon in two or three years ago.
We better have an on form team (I know we won't...) because they're going to give us a hard time on August 31th!
Posted by: misha Aug 18 2007, 09:07 PM
They have played pretty good against Madrid last week but nothing we can't handle...
Posted by: Rossoneri7 Aug 18 2007, 11:01 PM
Piece of cake ... 3-0 Kaka', Pippo, Pippo 
Posted by: zdrossoneri Aug 18 2007, 11:27 PM
You really think so?
consider that we won't have Ronaldo, and instead have an out of form Kaka... so do not underestimate Sevilla, my friend. 
maybe we win after all, but not that easy.

When has Sevilla actually played a club as BIG as Milan
I bet u, you'll change ur opinion of Sevilla after the match

Sevilla owned Barcelona last year in the SuperCup.
I just hope our players do NOT go to the pitch with that prima-donna attitude like Ronaldinho, Messi and co. did last year.

After the second leg at Istanbul .. Trust me they wont
Posted by: han2503 Aug 19 2007, 12:16 AM
Is Ronaldo going to be fit for this one?
Posted by: Rossoneri7 Aug 19 2007, 03:09 AM
Well Carlo did say he will be ready for the season opener, so I guess he will
Posted by: dst Aug 19 2007, 08:06 PM
Sevilla won't look as good against us... but I wouldn't be too surprised if they managed to win this one...
I do trust in my team though!! 
He'd say that not matter who we were playing against (except for Sacchi's Milan)!
An out of form Kaka!?? For ****'s sake you don't really expect him to score in every game do you!?? Has Galliani actually convinced you that he is a forward!??
We've never done that! (Istanbul and Riazor were not such cases in my view...)

Like Porty said, they humiliated Barca in last season's UEFA Supercup 3-0.
They are surely a tough team. let's see how they do in tonight's Spanish Supercup match...
If we take the game seriously and have Ronaldo at our disposal and they lose Alves to Chelsea, we can win.
It's not a matter of scoring goals actually. he just played poorly in Betis and Juve games... let's hope he'll find his top form ahead of this match (since he's had an injury in recent days).
Posted by: zdrossoneri Aug 19 2007, 09:52 PM
OMG... Sevilla is fvcking with Real!! 3-2 ahead in the first half in Santiago Bernabeu!!
They're really on form... we better watch out...
Posted by: dst Aug 19 2007, 11:00 PM
It's good to know you are sane!
I don't think he played poorly though. He was surely far from his best but he was not poor.
Anyway, Sevilla are clearly better so far in the second leg and Drenthe is Madrid's best. They made a great signing in him (as expected). I hate it, we should have gotten him and Sneijder instead and form a new Dutch power (maybe even a new Ducth trio along with Huntelaar)!
Posted by: zdrossoneri Aug 19 2007, 11:03 PM
Real Madrid 3 - 5 Sevilla
Where are you all who think beating Sevilla is piece of cake! did you see how they played tonight?! unbelievable!
Honestly I think we're doomed on August 31.
Posted by: misha Aug 19 2007, 11:04 PM
Don't worry, we'll get them cheap after they'll be replaced with some new hyped talents in a 2-3 years

They played well, but you can't compare Madrid's defence with ours. It will be completely different story. 2:1 to Milan.

Drenthe... I wish he was ours...
Posted by: zdrossoneri Aug 19 2007, 11:15 PM
Well, you're right... we won't concede 5 goals! but I think we'll have a hard game.
What a fvcking defender is Pepe!! he gifted two goals to Sevilla and saw red at last. how could they pay 30 million euro for him?!!!
Posted by: misha Aug 19 2007, 11:18 PM
Hard time? Yes. Lose? No.
We are playing like a unit as much as they do, but we have much more class.
Posted by: zdrossoneri Aug 19 2007, 11:21 PM

I hope so.
Good thing is that they won't have Dani Alves until that game, he'll be a Chelsea player within days 95%.
Posted by: Portikins Aug 19 2007, 11:49 PM
You guys "bla bla bla Pepe's fault..."
Seriously DID YOU GUYS SEE THEIR FULLBACKS? Ramos had an horrible match. Torres in completely out of form.
Anyway, this result must be good to motivate our players.
Posted by: dst Aug 20 2007, 12:01 AM
For now we could get Gago... they have one too many midfielders!!It will be an entirely different game... I won't make any predictions.
Pepe is a very good defender. Certainly not worth E30m... (only Nesta is) but he is good. You'll see.
Posted by: Portikins Aug 20 2007, 12:45 AM
Seriously guys, we must destroy them in the SuperCup. Their president is a c*nt of the highest degree. An arrogant bast*rd.
We've 11 days until then and the match vs. Genoa (away) 4 days before.

I was reading their forums (in their official website) and they're like amazed to be playing Milan:
"Winning or losing we'll be able to tell our grandchildren that we saw Sevilla playing the giant Milan."
This says it all.
Anyway, this cup must be rosso and nera.

Posted by: zdrossoneri Aug 20 2007, 12:22 PM
Yeah I saw last night how good he is!!
maybe he is not mature enough to be playing for Madrid?!Anyway, their best summer purchase is certainly Drenthe.
Posted by: misha Aug 20 2007, 01:04 PM
maybe he is not mature enough to be playing for Madrid?!Give him some time. It was only his second game.
It's hard being a CB at Madrid. Even Cannavaro looks bad over there.
Posted by: zdrossoneri Aug 20 2007, 01:35 PM
It's hard being a CB at Madrid. Even Cannavaro looks bad over there.
Schuster shouldn't have put him in the starting XI so soon (especially since they have paid 30 million euro for him). it was too big for him to handle.
I know he is a good defender, but is that enough to be a Madrid defender? I doubt.
Even an experienced player like Cannavaro is playing poorly over there. that's what I tried to explain to Porty and he didn't accept. last night Madrid didn't have enough "experience". they had too many young 'talents' who couldn't perform as a team. they lacked players like Carlos (though Drenthe performed really well in that position), Beckham, Emerson, Helguera, Slagado, etc.
Posted by: Tennie Aug 20 2007, 02:13 PM
For those in North America, the Fox Soccer Channel (and Fox Sports en Espanol) will be showing the game live.
Posted by: Rossoneri7 Aug 20 2007, 11:35 PM
In 10 days time, I think Milan will be 110% ready for this game.
I like the way Sevilla play, they are compact and (kind of like Greece 04 National team) play a very aggressive game. It will be an interesting match for our midfielders (as always ) as they will have to contain Sevilla's spark.
I predict this to be our formation ..
----------------------- Dida
---- Oddo ---Nesta -------- Kakha --- Sergio
--------Gattuso ------ Pirlo ------ Seedorf
------------------------ Kaka'
------------ Pippo --------------- Ronaldo
IMO this would be the most organized, tactically astute, experienced team Sevilla have ever played !
Even if they beat Barca, Madrid, hell throw Chelsea in the mix too ... I don't think that counts for anything when they play Milan. Sure our team might be old, but the wealth of experience and class that the team has will be on display for all fans and critics alike !

Posted by: Portikins Aug 21 2007, 01:51 AM
Will Carletto play the 4-3-1-2 Serie A style or the 4-3-2-1 Europe style (based on last year)?
Posted by: Rossoneri7 Aug 21 2007, 01:53 AM
With Ronaldo, I'd say he would opt for 4-3-1-2 ...
Posted by: KillerMax Aug 21 2007, 04:45 AM
Jankulovski is our starter at left back. No question.
Posted by: rhy_A4 Aug 21 2007, 06:25 AM
im just hoping they sell Alves , and is there captain still injured
Posted by: zdrossoneri Aug 21 2007, 10:59 AM
If I was Anccelotti, I'd opt for 4-3-1-2. but since I'm not, and Carletto's so wary, I think he will play with one striker, 4-3-2-1.
Posted by: m1ke Aug 21 2007, 02:06 PM
I agree, Carlo will play 4-3-2-1. I don't fear Sevilla though. They're a good team, but they're the ones who should be scared. I think we'll win this convincingly.
Posted by: Portikins Aug 21 2007, 02:46 PM
Ronaldinho is out of Genoa and Super Cup so definately 4-3-2-1.

Any case R20's your excuse for v2 isn't it?? You'd probably wish he takes till Aug 31st.

Lonalinho is just in 12 months.

Posted by: Nova Aug 21 2007, 10:03 PM
3-0 for milan.
Posted by: Portikins Aug 23 2007, 09:38 PM
Will we face D.Alves?
Chelsea got Belletti when everybody thought they'd go for him...
R.Madrid, United, Inter, Barcelona and others are quiet and I doubt they'd spend some millions.
Reports in Spain saying that he was pretty fvcked up when arriving today in Spain from the NT.
Sevilla is strong without him. But with him they're magnificent.
Posted by: mishie Aug 23 2007, 10:24 PM
i think all the big clubs do want him (obvious i know) but sevilla are reportedly wanting nearly £30m for him which is way to much...anyway tough game but i think a 2-1 for Milan
Posted by: dst Aug 24 2007, 09:12 AM
I feared more of Ronaldo last season... but Alves vs Janku still sounds nasty! If it was up to me, Favalli would be my choice for LB with Janku at LMF!
Posted by: Rossoneri7 Aug 24 2007, 09:38 AM
Yeah .. But the squad has yet to be decided, so ... Who knows ..
But I don't understand why so much importance is being put on Alves ?!
I mean, sure Janku is a joke of a defender, but it is Sevilla who should be worrying about Kaka' and Inzaghi IMO, we wont have much problem in containing Alves ... He will be quite for the most part of the game
Posted by: zdrossoneri Aug 24 2007, 10:12 AM
Maybe WE should sign him?!...
Posted by: KillerMax Aug 24 2007, 11:00 AM
Yeah, if they are willing to let him go for under 5 million...
Posted by: zdrossoneri Aug 24 2007, 12:07 PM
Oh I forgot we basically don't spend big money even on worthy players, my mistake.
Posted by: Nova Aug 24 2007, 12:14 PM
Just what makes him worthy of the rossoneri shirt ?
We're still talking about spanish "defense"
I might be wrong , but hey , if he joins something like chelsea ...

No, really... what's on your mind?!
Dani Alves is one of the greatest RB/RWs in the world. you really think he's not good enough to be a Rossonero?! I'd never doubt in benching Oddo for Alves. because he is great in both attack and defense... well, Oddo 'may' be the better player in defense, but nothing compared to Alves in attack.

Even i could wals past their defenders
And a defender's job is to defend Whats the point buying a defender for his attacking skills.
No , i wouldnt trade him for Oddo , hell no.
Posted by: Portikins Aug 24 2007, 01:46 PM
Daniel Alves has revealed his dismay that Sevilla rejected Chelsea's offer to sign and feels let down by president José MarÃa Del Nido.
The Brazilian full-back has the subject of transfer speculation all summer and was expected to complete a big-money move to the Blues.
After having a €36m bid rejected, Chelsea have now bought Juliano Belletti from Barça and Alves has been left fuming that Sevilla scuppered his chance of a move.
"It is the opportunity of a lifetime and I want to leave," he said. "I am not going to let this chance pass.
"I am disappointed by the way I have been treated. In the four-and-a-half year that I have been here I have given everything and I wanted more respect.
"We had an agreement that if an offer came in that was above the asking price or a huge amount that they would properly think about.
"An offer of €36m is a lot and yet the club refused it.
"I feel disappointed the offer of €36m was accepted at first and then later on it was turned down. I thought that it would be accepted on Monday, but it was not."
Despite his anger, Alves made it clear that he only has issues with one person at Sevilla and holds no resentment towards the club.
"I do not want to talk badly of the club, because this is a matter between myself and the president," he continued.
"The fans understand what is going on because nobody in their right mind would accept an offer that would see their salary doubled."
Alves is now inline to be part of Sevilla's squad for the opening game of the season against Getafe, but did pick up a knock playing for Brazil against Norway in midweek.
"I have trained with the squad, but not like normal," he added. "I still have a bit of bother."

It seems that he won't play.
Posted by: dst Aug 24 2007, 02:38 PM
Because for most people, Dani Alves is by far the best RB in the world!
Posted by: misha Aug 24 2007, 02:43 PM
Seems like it's not that serious. Probably will miss the league game but'll be ready for the Super Cup (if Madrid won't buy him before
).He's. The guy is pretty flexible too. He can also play as a center midfielder and as right midfielder, of course.
Posted by: zdrossoneri Aug 24 2007, 03:09 PM
One thing is clear: Dani Alves is hugely disappointed and pissed off about the situation. he wants to leave Sevilla but they haven't let him go yet, not even for 36 million euro. if he play against Milan, I'm sure he will not give his best, there's no chance for Sevilla to get from Alves as much good performance as they used to.
I even hope that Dani do us a favor and sore an own goal!...
Posted by: Portikins Aug 24 2007, 03:09 PM
).Will he play on the 31 with only some hours left in the market? Hum... I doubt.
Chelsea, Madrid, Barcelona, United or Liverpool should open their pockets.
Posted by: misha Aug 24 2007, 03:17 PM
Chelsea, Madrid, Barcelona, United or Liverpool should open their pockets.
What about this: Alves to Barca and Zambrotta to Milan. A win-win situation.
Posted by: zdrossoneri Aug 24 2007, 03:21 PM
That'd be fvcking great! I want Zambro
Posted by: misha Aug 24 2007, 04:19 PM
Winning trophies has become a habit for Sevilla FC. Prior to their UEFA Cup triumph in 2006 they had not collected a significant piece of silverware since lifting the Copa del Rey in 1948. Their 4-0 victory against Middlesbrough FC in Eindhoven brought that barren run to an end. Ever since, Sevilla's greatest concern has been finding space in the trophy cabinet to house an ever-expanding collection.
Sustained success
The past 15 months represent a period of sustained success the like of which the Andalusian side have never known. Sevilla have won the UEFA Cup twice, the Copa del Rey and the Spanish Super Cup since Juande Ramos took charge two summers ago. Now a fourth European trophy beckons as Sevilla defend the UEFA Super Cup against AC Milan on Friday. Having comprehensively beaten the 2006 European champions FC Barcelona 3-0 to win the competition last year, Sevilla return to the Stade Louis II in Monaco with every confidence they can do it again. "I think we're turning Sevilla into one of the great European clubs," midfielder Antonio Puerta told uefa.com. "We have a great team and Milan will have to respect us in the same way we respect them."
'Proud'
Milan will provide another indication of how far Seville have come in a short period. Judging by recent cup performances Sevilla have nothing to fear. Their thrilling 6-3 aggregate success against Real Madrid CF in the Spanish Super Cup last week was their fifth successive final victory. Of all those matches, RCD Espanyol pushed Sevilla furthest in May, taking the game to penalties after a 2-2 draw at Hampden Park before Puerta fired in the winning spot-kick. The 22-year-old only forced his way into the side on a regular basis for the first time last season after coming up through the ranks of his hometown club. "I never dreamed I would experience what is happening at the moment," he said. "I dreamed of playing for Sevilla but I never imagined I could win five titles in 15 months with the club. I'm proud to be from Sevilla."
Challenge
Goals from Renato, Frédéric Kanouté and Enzo Maresca defeated Barcelona in the UEFA Super Cup last season, and Renato and Kanouté were back on the scoresheet at the Santiago Bernabéu last week as Sevilla's excellent early season form continued. That followed a 2-0 win against AEK Athens FC in the third qualifying round of the UEFA Champions League that has put Sevilla on course for a place in the group stage for the first time. Rumours may be swirling concerning the futures of Juande Ramos and Daniel Alves, but the uncertainty has not affected performances as the Spanish season approaches. New signings Aquivaldo Mosquera, Tom de Mul, Khalid Boulahrouz and Seydou Keita are adapting well and Sevilla look well placed to challenge on both European and domestic fronts again.
Inzaghi goals
Milan too have been in good form and veteran striker Filippo Inzaghi is back among the goals in pre-season following his two-goal, match-winning display against Liverpool FC in the UEFA Champions League final in May. There may not be as much at stake on Friday as there was in Athens, but Inzaghi insists it is a game Milan will not want to lose. "Seville are undoubtedly a very good side [and] are playing extremely well," Inzaghi told uefa.com. "But we really want to start the season well and bring this cup home. It's a very prestigious trophy and we want to win it. I hope we play as well as Milan always do on the big occasions."
Experience
Milan are the only side to have won the UEFA Super Cup in successive years – 1989 and 1990 – and they will be looking to claim the trophy for a record fifth time, and the first since defeating FC Porto in 2003. The Rossoneri have featured in the competition seven times in all, another record, and Puerta believes the pressure will be on them to deliver again. "No one expected us to win five finals in so little time," he said. "We're growing little by little so to lose this match wouldn't be a disaster. We're here to enjoy it and if we get things right we'll have a chance. Milan are a big club and they are in a final they are almost obliged to win."
'Great form'
Success has come quickly for the 22-year-old whose emergence has coincided with the club's golden period. Whatever the result, Puerta is determined to enjoy it while he can. "We know we're not going to win five titles every year, but we want to make the most of our great form and try to extend our good run," he said. Beat the European champions for a second year in a row and despite their recent success, Sevilla fans might be forgiven for thinking the best is yet to come.

It's possible.
But let's face it: Barcelona don't need ofensive fullbacks playing the 4-3-3 or even with the 'fantastic 4' - that's why they've Abidal and Zambrotta for this season.

I have other options too. for instance if I had to choose between Liv Tyler and Monica Bellucci, I'd pick Monica! Basically Brazilian, Italian and French girls/women are my taste
OK, back to Milan-Sevilla!
Posted by: Fillipo Simone Aug 25 2007, 06:17 PM
I have other options too. for instance if I had to choose between Liv Tyler and Monica Bellucci, I'd pick Monica! OK, back to Milan-Sevilla!
Well, those options are really in everyone favor. Its like choosing between Ronaldo and Romario, or something like that. 80% of us will agree on Monica and Liv. Still, I prefer some other, more personal choices,..
Why did noone (sorry if I`m wrong..
) suggested Kanoute as a possible transfer for us? I mean, we reached the bottom with suggestions like Santa Cruz, Makaay or my pathetic Cisse option..The problem with him is that he is 29 (..old?..young?), and had some amazeing moments at Sevilla, so his value could be hyped. And he never hinted any chance of leaving Svilla.
For the game,..we can win, hopefully. My prediction: 2-1 for us (Yohann & Pippo goals)

Yup, Friday nite for Porty is b!tch-slap nite.
By the way I saw Sevilla in their match against Getafe. I think we might have just enough quality to beat them if we play our usual 'bella Milan calcio'.
But I'll tell you what though, if we play these guys with the same game plan we played against Liverpool, I don't think they stand a chance. They need a free flowing game to score, any cynicism from their opponents and they're stuck.

I'm going to have to stay off here when the game is on due to my neutralism(If that's a word), I don't want to start any arguements or anything.
Milan are a better side, but Navas is going to slaughter Janku or whoever plays at left back, no question. Seedorf is going to have to really help out his defender in this game.
I still predict a Milan win. 3-2.

The Brazilian midfielder proved that he's already reached a very good physical condition in this early part of the season.
Milan kicked-off their new season with an important and impressive 3-0 win away to Genoa at the Marassi stadium, with Ricky Kaka being the man of the match with two goals and a lot of good movements.
"I'm in form," admitted the Brazilian star, "But now let's thinking about Sevilla."
The Rossoneri will be facing the Spanish side, which won for the second consecutive year the Uefa Cup trophy, on Friday at Monaco in a game which Milan want to win to increase the number of silverware.
"We're in form right now, just like Sevilla, who won yesterday. I'm fine too, but I must still improve in the sprint."
With regards to yesterday's match, Kaka hopes that everything will go back to normal between the Genoa and Milan fans, and that in future there will not be the need to restrict the entrance to one set of fans.
"I hope that our fans can make peace with the Genoa ones," concluded Kaka.

The Rossoneri are rounding up their players for the upcoming Supercup final against Sevilla in Montecarlo, with only Maldini and Ronaldo unavailable through injury.
Without even having the time to fully celebrate the convincing opening Serie A win at Genoa (3-0), Milan already have to start preparing for the match in Montecarlo against Sevilla on Friday night, which will assign the European Supercup, the first major objective for the Via Turati club.
Massimo Ambrosini will be a part of the game, as the results of today's x-ray exams were satisfactory. It's probable that new purchase Emerson will also be called up, considering that he took part in today's 7-a-side match. It's a different matter for Ronaldo, who seems to be on his way toward a full recovery, but he was still training on his own today along with an athletic preparator.
Captain Paolo Maldini is not fit yet and will certainly not be called up, but for the rest coach Carlo Ancelotti has a full squad available for this mouth-watering clash between the European champions and the Uefa Cup winners. The Rossoneri and Sevilla both made winning starts to the new league season, as Sevilla also got a big win, defeating Getafe 4-1 at home last weekend.

I thought Ronaldo will be available also. I'd like to see Ronaldo- Pipo pair up front in Euro games.

MILAN - After coming off the pitch during the second half of Genoa-Milan for a knock to his knee, today Ambro did not have any problems. The magnetic scan gave positive results, after Ambro had already felt good this morning. Today Ambro will probably be able to train, without forcing himself, while from Wednesday he will be able to prepare with his team mates for the European Supercup final on Friday against Sevilla in Montecarlo.
I did not know that's the reason why he was substituted but this is good news!

UEFA: Super Cup goes ahead
Tuesday 28 August, 2007
UEFA have decreed the European Super Cup Milan-Sevilla will go ahead as a tribute to Antonio Puerta, who tragically died today.
The 22-year-old player collapsed on Saturday during the Liga game with Getafe and, although he walked off the pitch, suffered five cardiac arrests before he lost his fight for life in hospital.
Although UEFA have rescheduled tonight’s Champions League preliminary round tie with AEK Athens, the August 31 European Super Cup will go ahead as planned.
“The match will be a tribute to Antonio Puerta,†said UEFA spokesman William Gaillard.
Milan have suspended all communication with the media and Press Conferences ahead of the match in Monaco as a sign of respect.
The football world has been stunned by the death of this talented young player, especially after revelations he had collapsed twice before in training.
“One cannot put any blame on the emergency team that gave First Aid, but I can say that the player had precedent and in Italy we are very severe on situations like this,†explained former Inter chief of medical staff Piero Volpi.
Volpi was the doctor who gave Nwankwo Kanu a medical after he signed from Ajax and spotted a serious cardio-vascular dysfunction that meant he risked his life every time he stepped on to the field.
The Nigerian underwent surgery and was out for over a year before carrying on his career.
“In Italy we have very in-depth medical exams that are obligatory and in almost all cases find any doubts over the readiness of a player to compete in sport.â€
Puerta’s case is on the latest in a series of shocking incidents. Most recently Cameroon international Marc-Vivien Foe died during a Confederation Cup match with Colombia on June 26, 2003.
In January 2004 Benfica’s 21-year-old striker Miklos Feher collapsed from a heart attack against Vitoria Guimaraes.
In October that same year Sao Caetano defender Serginho died at the Morumbi stadium in San Paolo.
There are precedents in Italy, although they go back some way. On October 30, 1997 the 24-year-old Perugia player Renato Curi suffered a heart attack during a game against Juventus. It emerged a cardiac problem had been diagnosed, but he was still cleared to play, prompting a clampdown on the rules.
More fortunate was Lionello Manfredonia, whose heart stopped during a match with Bologna on December 30, 1989. The Roma midfielder survived, but his career was over.

Sevilla will want to win this match for Puerta. I'm not sure if they manage to do so though, because they're in a really disconsolate situation, they'll probably lose Alves to Real one of these days, and on the other hand, we want the Supercup more than anything right now!
Rest in peace, Puerta.

Real wont get Alves. If he moves, it will be to Chelski..

Chelsea closed that door when they signed Beletti. They have 3 RB now. Jose said that they won't buy anyone else but might release one player.

Ronaldo in shape for Supercup
The wait is nearly over for Milan fans. On Friday evening the Rossoneri go up against Spanish side Seville for the European Supercup.
There is good news from the club will more than likely go to Montecarlo with the rest of the squad. The Brazilian has been working hard all summer to get in shape but a niggling injury in July set him back almost a month and Milan want to avoid a repeat of the situation.
A place on the bench seems the most likely destination for Ronaldo with Pippo Inzaghi already confirmed in the starting 11.
Reassuring news also from Massimo Ambrosini who picked up a knock in the game against Genoa but will be available for the game of Friday and should once again be wearing the captain's armband.

Tras el entrenamiento vespertino del miércoles, celebrado a puerta cerrada en la ciudad deportiva del Sevilla FC, Juande Ramos ofreció la lista de convocados para el partido ante el Milán, con la Supercopa de Europa en juego en el estadio Louis II de Mónaco. Juande ha decidido que, como es habitual en las finales, viajan todos, 24 futbolistas, incluido Daniel Alves. La expedición parte mañana a las nueve de la mañana en vuelo chárter hasta el Principado, donde quedará alojado en el hotel Columbus. El entrenamiento está previsto para las 20.30 en el escenario del encuentro y la rueda de prensa oficial del mÃster será en la sala de prensa del estadio media hora antes, es decir, a las 20.00 horas.

Ambrosini expects moving experience
Massimo Ambrosini will lead out AC Milan for the UEFA Super Cup against Sevilla FC "with a heavy heart" following the death of the Spanish club's midfielder Antonio Puerta. "It's a strange feeling for me," said the Italian international. "I should be experiencing something wonderful and special personally but I cannot forget what has happened and it will be a moving experience playing tomorrow."
Opening goal
With a knee injury ruling regular captain Paolo Maldini out of the opening exchanges of the season, Rossoneri coach Carlo Ancelotti had little hesitation in handing the armband to the reliable midfielder. Ambrosini wasted little time in repaying that faith as Serie A kicked off at the weekend, scoring a 21st-minute opener at Genoa CFC before Kaká's two first-half goals completed a 3-0 victory. By that time, though, Puerta was in a critical condition in hospital having suffered a heart attack during Sevilla's Primera División defeat of Getafe CF. He never recovered and passed away on Tuesday.
Paying tribute
"We all feel grief and surprise at what was happened," said Ambrosini, an unsung hero of Milan's UEFA Champions League success last term. "It was up to Sevilla to make the decision to play the Super Cup and they decided to go ahead with it - perhaps this is the best way to pay tribute to Puerta. We must play in a committed way even if the match has lost some of its attraction, but we don't know what our mindset will be. It will be a very new experience for all of us - a victory or defeat will not have the same meaning as under normal circumstances."

Dida Doubt For Ancelotti Ahead Of Super Cup Clash
The Milan goalkeeper has a problem with his right shoulder and his presence for tonight's match against Sevilla is highly in doubt.
The Rossoneri are facing the possibility of playing without their number one goalkeeper Dida in tonight's all-important European Super Cup game against Sevilla at the Louis II Stade of Monaco.
The Brazilian shot stopper suffered a problem to his right shoulder on Thursday evening and it is yet unclear whether he will manage to recover in time for the big game.
If Dida will fail in the last tests before the kick-off time, veteran Australian goalkeeper Kalac will take over the responsibility of guarding the Milan goalpost and try to shut down the Sevilla attacks in what promises to be an exciting final.
Dida's injury occurred towards the end of the last training session and this could be an important loss for the Rossoneri , with the Brazilian playing well during the pre-season and in the first league game against Genoa last weekend.

Kalac might not be able to do http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NOn68JGw01k but I fear more of a did fumble than a Kalac one.
Posted by: Minami Aug 31 2007, 02:21 PM
So Dida won't play tonight??!!!!
Posted by: han2503 Aug 31 2007, 02:27 PM
Forgot about that one that's probably Dida at his best during those times.
But still I trust Dida much more then Kalac and he looked good in pre-season and the opening game. So I'm not that afraid about him fumbling
Posted by: Rossoneri7 Aug 31 2007, 04:03 PM
Our weakest link, going into this game, is the Gkeeping options ... But in all honesty, Sevilla don't exactly have a Buffon for a Gkeeper neither do they have a Henry for their attack ... In any case, I think we'll outscore them
Posted by: kurtsimonw Aug 31 2007, 04:16 PM
Palop was one of the best keepers in Europe last season. Kanoute was one of the scorers too.
Posted by: Rossoneri7 Aug 31 2007, 04:24 PM
Yeah .. But Sevilla are playing AC Milan, so for a team/club as BIG as Milan, players like palop or kanoute or whatever ... Don't stand a chance !
Ohh and it's Nesta who will be in defense, not Laursen. And it's Kaka' and Inzaghi in the attack
Posted by: Portikins Aug 31 2007, 04:26 PM
A spanish radio says Alves will be on the first 11.
Some others say playing or not, he'll be a Real Madrid player until mid-night. Just rumours.
Posted by: Rossoneri7 Aug 31 2007, 04:28 PM
I hope he plays !!!
I really do hope he plays
OOoooo RinGoooooo
FORZA MILAN!!!
Posted by: kurtsimonw Aug 31 2007, 04:46 PM
My new prediction: Sevilla 1-0 Milan. Kanoute to score, Palop with the cleen sheet.
Posted by: dst Aug 31 2007, 04:59 PM
It's getting really nasty all this Galliani talk! Do you understand that Milan don't artificially create their players!?? We buy them from other teams... Sevilla could be that team and Palop could be the player... the difference between us and them is not as big as you'd like to think! Milan is not on Mars...
Posted by: kurtsimonw Aug 31 2007, 05:02 PM
Sevilla did beat teams like Madrid last year. Not just any Madrid, a Capello Madrid that could defend! It's very hard to predict this result. A very fast paced Sevilla team against a technically gifted Milan team.
I just hope it's a superb match, one in memory of Puerta!
Posted by: Darunia Aug 31 2007, 05:03 PM
Alves will give us a lot of problems with his pace and offensive ability.
Forza Milan!
Posted by: IoRDanCHo Aug 31 2007, 05:13 PM
I know that Gilla can't put the f**king ball in the net, but i wan't him to play tonight! I know Pippo will play, but i don't think he will make us kings of Europe... Just a feeling, let it be a wrong one
Posted by: misha Aug 31 2007, 05:16 PM
45 years old Pippo with one leg is still would be picked ahead of Gila
Posted by: Portikins Aug 31 2007, 05:16 PM
I just hope it's a superb match, one in memory of Puerta!
Sevilla was lucky at home vs. Madrid with Mejia as CB.
In Bernabeu, they lost 3-2.
Posted by: Rossoneri7 Aug 31 2007, 05:19 PM
Calm down !! We will beat the sh1t out of Sevilla !
Posted by: kurtsimonw Aug 31 2007, 05:29 PM
In Bernabeu, they lost 3-2 but they were totally rap*d by Madrid on that 2nd half. Guti was the MOTM.
I dunno. I don't think they were that bad. And both of Sevilla's goals were fantastic, if Casillas couldn't stop them, Dida/Kalac won't.
But If both teams play to the best of their ability Milan shouldn't have too much trouble in winning the game, they have too many leaders and real top class individuals on the field, wheras Sevilla are 'just a team' with the exception of Alves and Kanoute.
Posted by: Tennie Aug 31 2007, 05:34 PM
Trivia factoid for those who are interested in such things:
Sevilla's midfielder Enzo Maresca (who is a usual starter for them) is a former Milan Primavera player.

Navas... the wonderkid Jesus Navas. Don't forget him.
Posted by: kurtsimonw Aug 31 2007, 05:51 PM
Oh ar, he'll be sure to cause Janku some problems.
Posted by: Portikins Aug 31 2007, 07:28 PM
20 min.
Alves Poulsen Escudé - - - Drago
Navas Marti Keita Duda
Renato
Kanouté
Sevilla playing in a 4-5-1 or 4-2-3-1 (as you like).
And Milan on the x-mas tree.
Posted by: kurtsimonw Aug 31 2007, 07:39 PM
Both only playing with one striker? I expected Sevilla to play with two.
Why the hell has Aubameyang got such a silly number?
Posted by: Portikins Aug 31 2007, 07:42 PM
FORZA MILAN! FOR THE 5TH EURO SUPERCUP!
Posted by: kurtsimonw Aug 31 2007, 07:50 PM
That wasn't the Sevilla fans booing Alves on the ball was it!?
Posted by: kurtsimonw Aug 31 2007, 07:51 PM
Kaka' off the post!
Posted by: misha Aug 31 2007, 07:51 PM
soooooooo close!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Posted by: Portikins Aug 31 2007, 07:51 PM
OHHH. Kaka' at the post.
Posted by: armisse Aug 31 2007, 07:52 PM
where are ronaldo and emerson ?
Posted by: kurtsimonw Aug 31 2007, 07:53 PM
Gatusso yellow card: Silly foul on navas.
Posted by: Tennie Aug 31 2007, 07:53 PM
Oops. Naughty Rino. Yellow.
Posted by: Portikins Aug 31 2007, 07:54 PM
Stupid Gattuso...
Yellow with 6min played. Just stupid.
Posted by: Kaka Is Brilliant Aug 31 2007, 07:55 PM
This is perhaps the only ever Milan game that I'm not cheering them on 100%
Posted by: kurtsimonw Aug 31 2007, 08:01 PM
Same.
In fact, I'm completely 50/50
1-0. Sevilla! Renato!
Posted by: Kaka Is Brilliant Aug 31 2007, 08:01 PM
Well done Sevilla, Dida you're useless, but I don't care tonight
Posted by: misha Aug 31 2007, 08:03 PM
We shouldn't recieve goals like that!! Dida
Posted by: kurtsimonw Aug 31 2007, 08:04 PM
Was a classy celebration. All together, in front of the Sevilla fans, for Puerta!
Dida is well and truely useless, how the hell does anybody rate him!?
Posted by: zdrossoneri Aug 31 2007, 08:05 PM
I said it's gonna be tough... we're going to lose 0-3!
Posted by: kurtsimonw Aug 31 2007, 08:06 PM
Where's R7 when you need him?
Posted by: Kaka Is Brilliant Aug 31 2007, 08:07 PM
Guys I seriously wouldn't base anything meaningful on tonights game.
Pippo's taking lessons from Gilar's diving book!
Posted by: misha Aug 31 2007, 08:08 PM
No we won't.
Posted by: Kaka Is Brilliant Aug 31 2007, 08:08 PM
Duda/Dida anyone else confused
Posted by: Tennie Aug 31 2007, 08:12 PM
Phew. Grande Nesta! Good save.
Posted by: Kaka Is Brilliant Aug 31 2007, 08:12 PM
What's Dida doing
Posted by: kurtsimonw Aug 31 2007, 08:13 PM
Dida is sh!t, get him off!
Nesta saved Dida's @ss there. Kanoute/Duda could have scored.
Posted by: Kaka Is Brilliant Aug 31 2007, 08:15 PM
Chelsea want Alves at right back That guy's the worst Right-Back I've ever seen, hes a winger
Dida has lost it completely!
Posted by: kurtsimonw Aug 31 2007, 08:16 PM
Kaka' with superb skill there, great ball to Rino.. He miss-kicked his shot.
Posted by: Kaka Is Brilliant Aug 31 2007, 08:17 PM
Chance! Should be a goal
Posted by: misha Aug 31 2007, 08:17 PM
Seedorf's header wide. good chance
Posted by: kurtsimonw Aug 31 2007, 08:18 PM
Seedorf should have scored. Poor marking, Seedorf one-on-one with the keeper. Headed it over.
Posted by: whoarethepatriots Aug 31 2007, 08:18 PM
Im done defending Dida, for a while now he has been on the decline and if he didnt have such a good defence in front of him we would concede a lot more
Terrible positioning, even worse decion making and Butter Fingers aswell
Posted by: Kaka Is Brilliant Aug 31 2007, 08:18 PM
Good diver, would suit Chelsea, this guy is overrated seriously!
Posted by: kurtsimonw Aug 31 2007, 08:19 PM
That was no dive! He twisted his knee!
Inzaghi shot. Saved by Palop. Sign him up!
Posted by: Kaka Is Brilliant Aug 31 2007, 08:20 PM
Twisted his knee? He legged it back onto the pitch
Posted by: whoarethepatriots Aug 31 2007, 08:23 PM
At the moment i rate everyone ahed of Dida and to a certain extent Kalac
Posted by: kurtsimonw Aug 31 2007, 08:26 PM
Why the hell is Dani Alves playing left wing now!?
Posted by: Kaka Is Brilliant Aug 31 2007, 08:28 PM
He is everywhere, he's not bad, but people have told me he is the best right-back in the world! I haven't seen one tackle
Posted by: Tennie Aug 31 2007, 08:29 PM
I think Alves is more of a #10 that happens to play in the RB position.
Posted by: kurtsimonw Aug 31 2007, 08:30 PM
Awesome ball from Pirlo towards Ambrosini, equally good challenge from Poulsen.
Posted by: whoarethepatriots Aug 31 2007, 08:30 PM
More of a winger than #10
Posted by: kurtsimonw Aug 31 2007, 08:33 PM
Inzaghi goals! Offisde. Great play from kaka' and Seedorf.
Posted by: Tennie Aug 31 2007, 08:33 PM
Bah. Pippo goal disallowed. Offside.
Posted by: Kaka Is Brilliant Aug 31 2007, 08:35 PM
Not a bad game considering.
Posted by: kurtsimonw Aug 31 2007, 08:36 PM
Nope, it's been pretty decent.
Milan should use Oddo more, he's been working his @ss off up and down the right-wing, but they never give him the ball!
Posted by: bigmacmtl Aug 31 2007, 08:40 PM
and theres people here that dida is one of the best Gkers in the world
Posted by: dst Aug 31 2007, 08:40 PM
Yup and that's because of Milan... this is not our usual play, whatever that means...
Sevilla is so complete it's scary. Best counter-attacking team in the world by miles! When in attack, they open up like a fan!
I hate to say it but Poulsen is the best player on that field tonight! Pirlo is also amazing, his through ball to Ambro in the last minutes was simply jaw-dropping!!!!
And Nesta's save on Renato's shot... what to say, NOT EVEN IN HOLLYWOOD!!!!!!
Edit: Goal was (partly) Dida's fault! And he also made a bad exit in another set-piece. His uniform is really cool!!
Posted by: aLbErTo Aug 31 2007, 08:40 PM
bad bad half for dida, he's runing in the box, like he's trying to replace oddo them together make perfect defending couple ^o) while pirlo was just being pirlo in the last 15min of the 1st half awesome to watch
Posted by: fresh_prince7 Aug 31 2007, 08:45 PM
It is a good game, both teams definitely playing to win.
Dida absolutely woeful, why didn't kalac play.
There doing a wonderful job tagging kaka' out of the game.
So no ronaldo, that hurts, leaves it down to gila.
I like the way sevilla play, thought we'd close them down better in the compact formation we play, and hurt them on the counter with kaka' and seedorf wide. Seedorf is going to definitely have to come into the game, cause kaka' is getting no space.
We played some good football though, deserved to be on level terms. Can so see us losing this game though.
Posted by: bigmacmtl Aug 31 2007, 08:45 PM
-sevilla keep counter-attacking and gattuso isnt doing anything so i would bring on emerson cuz we need another holding mid.
-kaka is being tightly marked so this should but opening up more other players (oh and i thought kaka was supposed to dance around ales with ease? i havent see that )
- i like what i've seen from ambro
-seedorf has created alot but wasted a sitter
-pirlo wasnt in the game until the last 10 minutes of the half
-our fullbacks are so bad at crossing, all our crosses are either low or mid height, while sevilla are getting all their crosses in the 6 yard box
-nesta has been majestic and saved a goal
-kaladze dint look good on several plays
-dida doesnt was just plain useless.
-pirlo wanst in the game until the last 10 minutes of the half
Posted by: Tennie Aug 31 2007, 08:47 PM
I've been rather impressed with Pirlo's performance in the second part of the half. He's been...Pirlo, in a way he wasn't for large parts of last year.
Nesta is a god in defense.
And Oddo is being allowed a lot of space on the right, they should (as Kurt said - I'm scared, I'm agreeing with Kurt again) use him more.
Posted by: dst Aug 31 2007, 08:48 PM
Please... let's not crucify Dida just yet!!
He's been set free, it's due to our way of attacking!
Posted by: fresh_prince7 Aug 31 2007, 08:49 PM
FORZA MILAN! LETS GET THIS BACK TO 1-1!
KAKA' to make it 1-1!

I agree with you on all three points!
Dida's had too many chances at Milan. It's time for a change in goal - Before he loses is another big tourney.
Posted by: whoarethepatriots Aug 31 2007, 08:53 PM

Not too late to bring in the affordable Amelia for £5 million, but i can see Milan Management giving Dida another chance
This season we will live or die by our goalkeeper
Posted by: Tennie Aug 31 2007, 08:54 PM
Wow, Duda really tried to sell that one. Bad tackle by Oddo, though. Lucky not to get a card.
Posted by: Kaka Is Brilliant Aug 31 2007, 08:54 PM
Oh dear then! We have a solid defence and he's a great shot stopper but when it goes in the air it's madness and it's been like that for a good few seasons now so nothing's that different.
Posted by: Tennie Aug 31 2007, 09:01 PM
PIPPO!

Janku. Great volley. 2-1 Milan.

Pirlo is beyond amazing!!
Posted by: Warchant Aug 31 2007, 09:10 PM
i was just about to come on here and post about how janku had done NOTHING this entire game...it's like he wasn't even playing in the game.
then he scores...so i'll be quiet
Posted by: BssMn Aug 31 2007, 09:11 PM
PIRLO SUPERB...AND JANKULOVSKI JUST AMAZING
Posted by: kurtsimonw Aug 31 2007, 09:11 PM
Marti OFF, Kerzakhov ON.
Posted by: Tennie Aug 31 2007, 09:14 PM
Duda yellow for hacking down Pirlo.
...followed by a yellow to Poulsen for dissent.
Posted by: Kaka Is Brilliant Aug 31 2007, 09:15 PM
Alves is playing on we know what, that's absolutely sick, get off the f*****g pitch
Posted by: dst Aug 31 2007, 09:16 PM
Except that he should have yellow-carded Keita from the first half!!!
Master-class goal for Janku... Pirlo is breath-taking... a tear run down me cheek!
Posted by: Portikins Aug 31 2007, 09:16 PM
Alves asking the ref directions to Madrid.
Posted by: kurtsimonw Aug 31 2007, 09:17 PM
I know I'm a Poulsen fan, but does anyone agree that he's been simply second class tonight?
Posted by: kurtsimonw Aug 31 2007, 09:19 PM
Gatusso OFF, Emerson ON.
Posted by: Portikins Aug 31 2007, 09:19 PM
Emerson in
Gattuso out
Posted by: Tennie Aug 31 2007, 09:19 PM
Ooh. This will be interesting. Emerson on for Rino. Hope he does all right.
Posted by: Kaka Is Brilliant Aug 31 2007, 09:19 PM
I remember what happened last time when we were 2-1 up Gattuso came off that time for Brocchi! Rooney anyone?! Hopefully Emerson's better
Posted by: Portikins Aug 31 2007, 09:19 PM
That guy is sick.
Posted by: Portikins Aug 31 2007, 09:20 PM
Who doesn't?

Duda OFF, Maresca ON.
Posted by: I_Rossoneri Aug 31 2007, 09:21 PM
IMO he's always second class
Posted by: Kaka Is Brilliant Aug 31 2007, 09:21 PM
Probably Carlo seeing as Brocchi's still in our squad
Posted by: kurtsimonw Aug 31 2007, 09:23 PM
You know what I mean!
I'll reword it then.. A class above the rest.
Posted by: misha Aug 31 2007, 09:24 PM
It's a good time to put in a fresh Gila
Posted by: Kaka Is Brilliant Aug 31 2007, 09:25 PM
We conceded so late quite a few times in Europe last season, try and keep our heads tonight.
Posted by: kurtsimonw Aug 31 2007, 09:25 PM
I see Gourcuff's getting plenty of time to work his way into the team, as always.
Posted by: misha Aug 31 2007, 09:27 PM
Yeah, it would have been a great idea to put him instead Rino
Posted by: I_Rossoneri Aug 31 2007, 09:29 PM
Gila will be fresh for monday
I take what I said back.
Posted by: Kaka Is Brilliant Aug 31 2007, 09:30 PM
Even if we win, trophy has to go to Sevilla right?
Posted by: Tennie Aug 31 2007, 09:31 PM
I think it'd be the right thing to do.
Posted by: I_Rossoneri Aug 31 2007, 09:31 PM
I'll reword it then.. A class above the rest.
TBH I can't stand the man, I don't rate him as a footballer as well.

What a footballer, but what a person, great gesture Kaka
Posted by: Tennie Aug 31 2007, 09:34 PM
Goal Kaka (missed penalty, rebounded to Kaka, who headed it in). Class act from Kaka, pointing to the Puerta name on the back of his jersey after the goal.
Gila on for Pippo and (eek) Brocchi on for Turtle.
Posted by: Kaka Is Brilliant Aug 31 2007, 09:36 PM
Class from Seedorf as well, good lads
Posted by: kurtsimonw Aug 31 2007, 09:36 PM
Not many Milan fans can stand him.
But, as a Sevilla fan also, I think he's pure class. Showed just how great a centre back he is today, been no worse than Nesta tonight by any means.
