Palermo will be playing Inter, so this will give us a chance to leapfrog them into 4th if we win.

Posted by: Rossoneri7 Apr 8 2007, 11:20 PM

Han the game is in 7 days hehe u could have waited u know

Posted by: Darunia Apr 9 2007, 12:18 AM

I don't think Palermo is a problem anymore, they're only up 1 point with a game in hand and hasn't won in their last 9 games. I'm starting to worry about Fiorentina though, they're only 6 points back of Milan and we still have to play them once.

Posted by: han2503 Apr 9 2007, 03:15 PM

Yeah, I know. But I can't wait for this one since this will most likely be the one that get's us into 4th.


Fiorentina still havee Inter, Roma and Lazio to play. So they will lose points. Plus the game against them is at home and we've already played them away and got a point out of it when we were playing far worse then we are now.

I think we can win it

Posted by: Darunia Apr 9 2007, 05:14 PM

Well that's partly true except Fiorentina has already played Inter and Roma twice.

Posted by: han2503 Apr 9 2007, 05:45 PM

Yeah you're right. Sry about the typo. But they still have us and Lazio to play.

Plus they've droped a lot of points laitley, with does 3 consecutive draws, so I think they will drop more.

I think we can win against them in the San Siro.

Posted by: Rossoneri7 Apr 9 2007, 09:36 PM

I agree with han, seeing as there are only 7 more games till the season ends. PLUS there is a difference of 6 points between us (5th place to their 7th place) ... Fiorentina are definitely not considering a CL spot

Posted by: Jack Sparrow Apr 10 2007, 11:58 AM

7 games?? Anybody think we can get max points? We need to win at least 80% right, and remain unbeaten.....third place off limits?

Posted by: arivanjj Apr 10 2007, 12:07 PM

is this one of those games where we score 5 goals, cause we haven't had any of them since last season

Posted by: Rossoneri7 Apr 10 2007, 12:11 PM

Maybe

Posted by: arivanjj Apr 10 2007, 12:14 PM

and Ronaldo scoring all five?





























yeah ok that's too much.

Posted by: Rossoneri7 Apr 10 2007, 12:35 PM

Well why not

















Yeah, okay it is too much to ask

Posted by: arivanjj Apr 10 2007, 12:39 PM

forget the second part, i like you attitude

Posted by: han2503 Apr 10 2007, 12:40 PM

I think we can win 7 and maybe draw the on against Fiorentina, even though I'm very confident we can win that one.



He has been scoring very regularly lately, especially considering that he has had 2 goals already disalloed only one of them was offside, but you can't fault his finishing on both goals, especially in the game against Empoli.

I think he will score again against Messina, Gila also. And one for Kaka, since he hasn't scored in Serie A since the game against Udinese I think

Posted by: arivanjj Apr 10 2007, 12:55 PM

Kaka worries me... our last game he wasn't aiming to score even when he had chances, instead he passed around

Posted by: han2503 Apr 10 2007, 12:56 PM

Yeah that's what I though.

He really should shoot more, especially when there are openings

Posted by: arivanjj Apr 10 2007, 12:59 PM

tomorrow he'll be a key player since we're only playing with one forward, hope he doesn't do this.

Posted by: dst Apr 10 2007, 01:18 PM

You mean the game against Empoli? It was clear to me that he saved some energy for Bayern.

Posted by: arivanjj Apr 10 2007, 01:22 PM

well not only that game... lately in general.

Posted by: Jack Sparrow Apr 10 2007, 05:54 PM

Funny....some time back I would have welcomed it. When Kaka replaced Rui, as much as I liked Kaka's skill, I always felt he wasn't half the playmaker Rui was. He was more of a goal scoring mid. Now he's passing left and right, and we don't want it. One major wierd season.

Posted by: Rossoneri7 Apr 10 2007, 06:04 PM

Rui Costa is a play maker .. Kaka is an attack midfield, more like a forward than a midfielder; meanwhile Rui is a dedicated play maker as our beloved turtle is

Posted by: Jack Sparrow Apr 10 2007, 06:07 PM

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! Seedorf and Rui...hahaha....well maybe the old Seedorf.

This season's Seedorf is a total piss-off. And to think he promised so much in the pre-season.

Posted by: Rossoneri7 Apr 10 2007, 06:12 PM

H edid promise so much .. Let's see if he can prove us wrong tomorrow

Posted by: Jack Sparrow Apr 10 2007, 06:17 PM

If he does....I'll never every say his butt is fat....

Maybe I might say he's got an enlarged posterior, but that's not the same thing is it....

Posted by: KillerMax Apr 10 2007, 06:23 PM

You're obsession with Seedorf's bum is worrying...

Posted by: Jack Sparrow Apr 10 2007, 06:39 PM

Tell it to him like it is dst...

Posted by: dst Apr 10 2007, 06:41 PM

arivanjj is talking about some clear occasion when he could and maybe should have shot but he instead went for the risky through ball from close range the one that rarely goes through... there were some of those recently but we can't blame him for being a team player... we can maybe blame him for being a little bit too polite if we fell blame-happy. Considering the goals he scored in the CL group stage I think he should try some more shots.

He's a good player I think!


I'd rather see him on the bench... Bayern have a large one!

Messina - Milan

Milan visit the Stadio San Filippo knowing that they must take all three points if they are to keep up in the race for Champions League football, but will have to negotiate a Messina side desperately battling to escape the drop.

The alarm bells are ringing in Messina. The Peloritani haven’t scored in three games and have slipped to second bottom with confidence at a low. The return of Bruno Giordano didn’t have the desired effect last weekend as the Giallorossi fell to a 1-0 defeat against high-flying Lazio – the Roman tactician has a lot to do and so little time to do it.

If the Sicilians are to fight their way out of trouble they will need to continue their solid home form. While they are winless on the road, Giordano’s side have triumphed five times on home soil and could possibly spring a surprise. Desperation can inspire struggling sides and the Messina fans will be praying their side find an extra gear or they will need another courtroom drama to remain a Serie A outfit.

Milan also know that one performance could be the difference between a successful campaign and bitter disappointment. Despite the eight-point Calciopoli handicap the Rossoneri could sneak into the Champions League spots and boosted their chances of doing so last weekend with a 3-1 victory over Empoli.

Carlo Ancelotti’s side leapfrogged the Tuscan minnows to move into fifth and are now just one point shy of the stuttering Palermo and the Holy Grail that is fourth place. With so little time remaining Milan must secure maximum points and hope that city rivals Inter can do them a favour and beat Palermo. If they do so Ancelotti’s men will suddenly be in the box seat.

Paolo Maldini was the unexpected goal hero when Milan squeezed past Messina at the San Siro in Week 13. Milan have won the last four meetings between the two sides but Messina fans will recall the 2-1 triumph at the San Siro back in September 2004. This encounter also sees the League’s most disciplined side take on Serie A’s bad boys. While Milan have recorded just three red cards and 51 bookings, the Biancoscudati have seen 13 dismissals and a staggering 94 cautions.

Giordano will be glad to welcome Ivorian stopper Marco Zoro back from suspension but cannot call upon the banned Vincent Candela or injured pair Angelo Rea and Mitsuo Ogasawara. Veteran Milanese hit man Arturo Di Napoli is struggling with a calf injury but cannot be ruled out.

Milan are finally nearing a full strength squad. Serginho remains sidelined and Cristian Brocchi is fighting flu, but they are the only probable absentees. Ricardo Oliveira is set to be banished to the bench leaving a Ronaldo and Alberto Gilardino partnership. Both men will be fresh having sat out the mid-week clash with Bayern Munich due to ineligibility and suspension respectively.

Man on fire: Ronaldo (Milan) – Il Fenomeno opened the scoring against Empoli last weekend and turned provider to set up Gilardino for the second. He has breathed new life into the Rossoneri front line since his arrival and Messina will struggle to contain him.

Last season: Messina 1-3 Milan

Form guide: Messina (W D L L L) Milan (W L W D W)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Messina (probable): Paoletti; Zoro, Iuliano, Lavecchia, Pestrin; D’Aversa, Masiello, Giallombardo; Alvarez, Floccari, Rigano’

Milan (probable): Dida; Cafu, Bonera, Kaladze, Favalli; Gattuso, Pirlo, Gourcuff, Kaka’; Gilardino, Ronaldo

Posted by: Darunia Apr 11 2007, 09:41 PM

Tiring match, so that probable lineup seems likely. Maldini, Nesta, Seedorf deserve a rest. Gila + R9 will score some goals!


Just realized we have a midweek game against Ascoli on Wednesday. Also, the Cagilari game will probably be moved up to Saturday, meaning Milan plays 3 games in 6 days. Luckily Messina and Ascoli are at the bottom of the table, but we can't take any games for granted. We'll prob rest some regulars against Messina and Cagilari.

Posted by: han2503 Apr 12 2007, 04:27 PM

I personally would play this one for The next game

Cafu--Bonera--Nesta--Janku
Brocchi--Yoann--Ambro--Sergio
---------Ronaldo--Gila--------

I think this will be enough for Messina, resting key players and getting Sergio back in top form is essential for us in the game against Man U.

Posted by: dst Apr 12 2007, 04:35 PM

Looks good to me han but I doubt we're going to see that on Sunday.

Posted by: han2503 Apr 12 2007, 06:10 PM

Yeah me too but guys like Kaka, Pirlo and Rino need some rest. And Carlo now knows that we alomst have the CL spot secured, so I'm counting on him to rest some players since we have such a tight schedule in the next few weeks.

Besides, if we aren't doing well we have guys like Kaka who can come on and make a difference, even though I think that Gila or R9 are bound to score at some point and out defence have been looking good recently

Posted by: KillerMax Apr 12 2007, 07:22 PM

Gourcuff MUST be used. It only makes sense. Kaka, Pirlo and Rino all need to get at least some rest. I have a feeling that Nesta won't start cause he gave 150% against Bayern and he is not that fit yet.

I think Ancelotti will go for:

------------------Dida-----------------------
--Oddo---Bonera--Kaladze---Jankulovski
------------------Pirlo-----------------------
--------Brocchi-------Gourcuff-------------
-----------------Kaka-----------------------
--------Ronaldo------Gilardino------------

Posted by: Portikins Apr 12 2007, 07:26 PM

Inter-Palermo on the same day. It's time for us to, definately and with a game in hand, enter the Champions League zone.

Forza Milan!

^I love how Channel 4 continues to refer to Empoli as "minnows" despite the fact they've been strong all season.

Posted by: LaPalma Apr 13 2007, 07:15 AM

Yap, this is our chance to take the 4th spot. And it's about time IMO!

Serie A Preview: Messina - Milan -- http://www.goal.com/en/articolo.aspx?ContenutoId=279608

When: Sunday April 15, 15:00 (CET)

Where: Stadio San Filippo, Messina, Italy

Messina are once again facing relegation, after having narrowly escaped demotion last term. Their Serie A status for this season was not affirmed through their own merit, but due to the Calciopoli scandal and subsequent relegation of Juventus, which allowed Messina to stay up.

Such luck does not appear to be on the horizon this time around, however. They have been fingered as possible perpetrators for the second go-around of the Calciopoli investigations. Although, it is not yet clear if they did in fact have involvement in wrongdoings or in what amount it may have been. Nevertheless, this will not be a welcome distraction for a side on the brink of going down to Serie B by virtue of their poor play. That is, if they aren’t demoted even further when the Calciopoli verdict eventually comes down.

Milan, on the other hand, have been tabbed as victims in the second round of investigations, most notably in the scoreless draw which took place at Juventus’ Stadio Delle Alpi in December of 2004.

The match was embroiled in controversy, and Milan twice had valid penalty claims against Juventus waived off by the referee. The outcome of this match, according to many people, was the real difference in the final standings, as Juventus edged out Milan for the title that season.

On the playing side of things for Milan, the current encounter in Sicily represents a terrific opportunity to finally achieve their goal for this season—Champions League qualification. The Rossoneri are a single point behind Palermo for the fourth place in the table, which brings with it a chance for top European football next season.

Seeing as Palermo play top of the table Internazionale this weekend, Milan can feel good about their chances of moving above Palermo in the standings.

BACKGROUND

When Milan hosted Messina at the San Siro back in November, the deciding factor was ‘Il Capitano’ Paolo Maldini. In the 13th minute, Andrea Pirlo sent a free-kick into the box, and Maldini leapt above the crowd to head home the only goal of the game for a Milan win.

CURRENT FORM

Messina (19th place in Serie A, 24 points)

Last three results

3/18 Messina 0-3 Torino

4/1 Cagliari 2-0 Messina

4/7 Lazio 1-0 Messina



Milan (5th place in Serie A, 47 points)

Last three results

3/18 Milan 1-0 Atalanta

3/31 Roma 1-1 Milan

4/7 Milan 3-1 Empoli

TEAM NEWS

Messina must do without several players for this fixture. Mitsuo Ogasawara, Arturo Di Napoli and Angelo Rea are injured, and Vincent Candela is suspended after being sent off against Lazio last Saturday.

Milan will be missing Paolo Maldini, who must rest his knees after playing the full ninety minutes against Bayern Munich on Wednesday. Several other first team players may also be rested in view of the busy end of season schedule.

PLAYERS TO WATCH

Christian Riganò (Messina) – The club’s leading scorer this season, and only consistent threat in front of goal. He will be watched closely, but should still find space among the Milan defenders.

Ronaldo (Milan) – Scored one and assisted on another in the victory over Empoli last weekend. Since returning to the city of Milan, he has committed himself to regaining proper fitness, and this has been evident in his play.

POSSIBLE STARTING XI’s

Messina (4-3-3): Paoletti; Zoro, Iuliano, Lavecchia, Pestrin; D’Aversa, Masiello, Giallombardo; Alvarez, Floccari, Riganò

Milan (4-3-1-2): Dida; Cafu, Bonera, Kaladze, Favalli; Gattuso, Pirlo, Gourcuff; Kakà; Gilardino, Ronaldo

PREDICTION

Surely, Milan will obtain the points they should get, rather than to play down to their competition. Messina are staring the prospect of relegation directly in the face, and the outcome of this match will not do anything to alleviate their fears.

Messina 0-2 Milan

Posted by: rhy_A4 Apr 14 2007, 01:39 AM

I hope Favali gets a start he was looking good at the Empoli game , and i really want Gourcuff to start he needs to have more time on the pitch espicially as we need to rest seedorf

Posted by: tom_valtellina Apr 14 2007, 02:40 AM

We are in a delicate position. Key players need to be well rested prior to the Man United tie but we cannot afford to drop too many points in the league if we want to finish fourth.

Fiorentina are only six points back with a game against us still to come, plus they have a better goal difference than we do. Empoli and Palermo appear to be fading but can't be discounted. I'm still confident we will finish in fourth place, but we can't afford to take our foot of he pedal on the domestic front.

Our next run of games is Messina (away), Ascoli (away), Cagliari (home), Man U (away), Torino (away), Man U (home) and Fiorentina (home).....six games in three weeks. So Ancelotti will really need to balance his squad very carefully. Thankfully the whole squad is pretty much fit at the moment, after a bad season on the injury front.

Posted by: han2503 Apr 14 2007, 10:13 AM

Definately. I would especially like to see Kaka and Pirlo rested, at least for 1 of the games.

Playing a 4-4-2 like I suggested earlier will be enough against Messina imo, Ronaldo is as much a match winner as Kaka imo.

And if it doesn't work we can always put both players in after half time.


I think we have it secured, yes Fiorentina are really hot atm but I think we have enough to keep them at bay.

Also the fixtures favour us more then anything else, and if we win at home and the gap by then stays the same then we won't have to worry about them anymore.


Yeah, it will be tough, that's why rotating the squad in these easier games will be key.

What is also in favour of us is that Man U still have to fight for the title and FA Cup, where Chelsea are breathing on their necks in the league, but have a relatively easy path to the finals of the cup.

So they probably won't risk resting a lot of their players, especially since they don't have a lot of depth in their squad.

Posted by: Darunia Apr 14 2007, 06:21 PM

Ancelotti said same defense and attack from the Empoli game... so slightly different midfield then?

We'll prob see this lineup, although maybe Pirlo or Gattuso will be rested.

------------------Dida--------------
Cafu---Bonera--Kaladze---Favalli
------------------Pirlo---------------
--------Gattuso-------Gourcuff-----
-----------------Kaka---------------
--------Ronaldo------Gilardino-----

Posted by: Jack Sparrow Apr 14 2007, 07:17 PM

I'd guess Ambro instead of Pirlo...and maybe Rico instead of Kaka later on.

Posted by: jefri91 Apr 14 2007, 07:46 PM

Rui COsta??? I hope so cuz Ive only seen him play once if not none


**** Im going to punish myself for this *******

Posted by: milanista88 Apr 14 2007, 08:06 PM

rui costa?!!
lol he's with benfica
i think rico as in brocchi
cause gattuso didnt get called

Posted by: Darunia Apr 14 2007, 08:13 PM

Gattuso got called up, Brocchi didnt (flu I think)

Posted by: misha Apr 14 2007, 08:19 PM

You aren't up to date He meant Ricardo Oliveira.

No matter what line up it will be, it's good enough to beat them. Kaka and Pirlo must rest.

Posted by: fresh_prince7 Apr 14 2007, 08:19 PM

Empoli drew with cagliari.. so a win later today will give us a bit of a buffer in 4th.

Posted by: Il Capitano Apr 14 2007, 08:25 PM

It's gonna be like this

G:Dida

DF:Cafu,Bonera,Kaladze & Favalli

MF;Pirlo,gourcuff,Gattuso

OM:Kaka

FW:Gila & Ronny

Maybe we will se Serginho or Ambrosini instead of pirlo and Gattuso.

But most of the starting X1 is confirmed by Il mister.

Posted by: milanista88 Apr 14 2007, 08:28 PM

well we just gotta win!!!
crucial points now.

forza milan

Posted by: whoarethepatriots Apr 14 2007, 08:59 PM

This is the only time i am supporting inter, although a draw would be most enjoyable to witness

As for the line up, carlo has said Ronnie and Gila play, Gourcuff is a definite, brocchi is out with the flu supposedly and i guess il capitano will be rested, the rest may or may not be played but it would be a good idea to rest some guys, and bring them on only if desperately needed (gattuso pirlo kaka im talking about, maybe the full backs need a rest too)

Posted by: han2503 Apr 14 2007, 09:09 PM

It's either resting guys like Kaka, Rino, Pirlo and Clarence all together from the start and see if the team win it without them or just play them from the start, try to kill the game off by half time then take them off.

I personally would prefer the first option but Carlo will most probably choose the second.

Either way, if we do kill the game off by half time then at least Kaka, Pirlo and Rino need to be taken off. Too bad Brocchi has the flu, I'm sure Carlo won't risk Ambro since he will be very important for us in the CL. So Sergio, to replace Rino and Yoann moving to the right and Sergio on the left, Oli in for Kaka and go for a trident by after half time.

And also, taking Pirlo off at some point is also a good idea, reaplacing him with Ambro somewhere arounf the 70th minute to help close the game up.

Resting players is important, the defence has no problem since we're mosty playing a back 4 for CL and another for the Serie A recently, The guys that played against Empoli the other week played great, they shouldn't have any problems against Messina

Posted by: jefri91 Apr 14 2007, 09:11 PM

Im sorry I just became a Milano like 2 month ago and when did he transfer? I remember him playing a match and then after that he said he didn't want to play anymore or something like that.

Posted by: jefri91 Apr 14 2007, 09:13 PM

Important update !!! I just played Winning Eleven 11 against Messina (Away, 5 stars ,etc) and the score was 3-0 with Ronaldo scoring an early goal, Gilardino scoring in second half and then another in Injury time!!! and he also gets a yellow card

Posted by: Jack Sparrow Apr 14 2007, 09:17 PM

He dived again...that biaatch...

Posted by: han2503 Apr 14 2007, 09:18 PM

Thanks for the simulation.

Let's see if this is another correct one

Hopefully not Gila's card, I think he will be suspended if he gets another one

Posted by: dst Apr 14 2007, 09:21 PM

I'm with Palermo. I don't want the Merda to finish the championship unbeaten. Although most probably that's what's going to happen...

Posted by: jefri91 Apr 14 2007, 09:28 PM

Thats our Gila



It might be 2-0 because the 3rd goal was so lucky Bounced off the goaly, hit the cross bar and starting rolling down the goal line until the middle when it moved in

Posted by: han2503 Apr 14 2007, 09:40 PM

Well I don't really care if they do that, we went for 2 seasons straight unbeaten so they still have a long way to go to achieve that. whereas if they beat Palermo and we win then we're basically home free in 4th place with a game in hand.

And right now that is more important





Well we're due a bit of luck this season

this game will come before a Semi final just like last season, when Kaka, Sheva and nesta were all injured by the messina hench men, so we should really be careful.

And now it comes out that the Messina president had a lot of connections with Moggi. Funny how things turn out isn't it...

Posted by: Portikins Apr 15 2007, 01:22 PM

-------------Dida--------------
Cafu-Bonera-Kaladze-Favalli
---Gattuso--Pirlo--Gourcuff
--------------Kaka'------------
----Gilardino-----Ronaldo

Let's do it! Forza Milan!

Posted by: dst Apr 15 2007, 01:37 PM

Good line-up! Hope we can rest some of the players later on.

Forza Ragazzi!! Bring home a win, 3 points and 4th position in the table!!

Posted by: arivanjj Apr 15 2007, 01:42 PM

i like the line-up, just hope to see more playing time from Sergino

Posted by: whoarethepatriots Apr 15 2007, 01:43 PM

He isnt fully fit, but i do expect him to make an appearance later on

Posted by: arivanjj Apr 15 2007, 01:44 PM

hey porty (lol, still cracks me up), i think bwin is showing the game, would you give us the link. thanks

Posted by: fresh_prince7 Apr 15 2007, 01:52 PM

Wish I was old enough to have seen the action of the early 90's and see the invincibles in action.

What a time that would have been..

Posted by: arivanjj Apr 15 2007, 01:57 PM

ok it's come up... you can watch the match on bwin, i think you would have to register tough

just go here https://www.bwin.com/ and find the Messina - Milan game on the right hand side and press the video tab.

Posted by: han2503 Apr 15 2007, 01:58 PM

2 minutes till kick off

FORZA MILAN

Posted by: arivanjj Apr 15 2007, 02:09 PM

Posted by: han2503 Apr 15 2007, 02:10 PM

Yes, but when I click the video tab nothing happens

Posted by: elcordobez Apr 15 2007, 02:11 PM

Sweet i got it working
very small screen tho but still good...

We're struggling early on >.<

Posted by: arivanjj Apr 15 2007, 02:12 PM

oh you have to click on the video tab on the left hand side again

btw it's a small video so http://www.sendspace.com/file/lp1l7p is a neat magnifying tool to make the screen bigger.

Posted by: Darunia Apr 15 2007, 02:13 PM

Yeah, works... but so small. I'll try the magnifying thing

Posted by: Darunia Apr 15 2007, 02:15 PM

Kaka on fire

Posted by: Portikins Apr 15 2007, 02:19 PM

Fckin' stupid comentator. What the hell is "Melan"? Geez.

Posted by: arivanjj Apr 15 2007, 02:19 PM

hmm... it's probably because of the area you're from.

Posted by: arivanjj Apr 15 2007, 02:19 PM

HAHAHAHA

Posted by: elcordobez Apr 15 2007, 02:20 PM

Ya this commentator probably had a bender last night

Posted by: Portikins Apr 15 2007, 02:21 PM

Yup. It is. It happened to some other people in other matches.

Posted by: han2503 Apr 15 2007, 02:22 PM

damn

Posted by: arivanjj Apr 15 2007, 02:23 PM

hey my one is lagging... same for you?

Posted by: Portikins Apr 15 2007, 02:23 PM

Roma 1-0 Sampdoria. Totti... 19th goal this season. Rosella Sensi laughin' on the stands.

Great shot.

Posted by: Portikins Apr 15 2007, 02:24 PM

Just a bit.

Melan... now it's Gilardinho.

Posted by: han2503 Apr 15 2007, 02:25 PM

Everyone calls him that for some reason, especially the English

Posted by: arivanjj Apr 15 2007, 02:26 PM

LOOOOL!!

Posted by: misha Apr 15 2007, 02:28 PM

Again great save from Messina keeper

Posted by: Portikins Apr 15 2007, 02:28 PM

Ohhh. What a play by Kaka'!

Posted by: han2503 Apr 15 2007, 02:28 PM

Again great save from the keeper.

Kaka is definately on fire today

Posted by: Portikins Apr 15 2007, 02:29 PM

What time is in Sydney right now? Just for curiosity.

Posted by: han2503 Apr 15 2007, 02:29 PM

Rigano Yellow

Posted by: Il Capitano Apr 15 2007, 02:31 PM

Posted by: han2503 Apr 15 2007, 02:31 PM

GOOAAALLLLLLL

FAVALLI!!!!!

GGGGGGGGOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL FAVALLI! 0-2!!!

Posted by: misha Apr 15 2007, 02:32 PM

Favalli!!!!!!!!!

Second week in a row

Posted by: Darunia Apr 15 2007, 02:32 PM

FAVALLI

I swear his finishing is better than Gila's =/

Posted by: han2503 Apr 15 2007, 02:32 PM

Some nice play from Ronaldo

Posted by: Il Capitano Apr 15 2007, 02:33 PM

Gila must take notes on how to finnish from Favalli.

Posted by: arivanjj Apr 15 2007, 02:33 PM

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOL


anyone catch the shot of Galliani wearing a red cap!

Posted by: whoarethepatriots Apr 15 2007, 02:34 PM

My god

Favali with 2 in 2, what is the world coming to

Posted by: han2503 Apr 15 2007, 02:34 PM

Yoann Yellow



He shouldn't make falls like that though. Even though I don't think it wasn't a totally intentional dive

Posted by: HasanHasanly Apr 15 2007, 02:34 PM

FAVALLiNHO!

Posted by: han2503 Apr 15 2007, 02:35 PM

14' GOAL! Kaladze gets a touch on Kaka's shot from outside the area... and it's enough to fool Paoletti in the Messina net! 1-0 to the Rossoneri and that Champions League spot is looking like it's theirs tonight!

30' GOAL! Favalli finishes well after Gourcuff had put him through! Milan 2-0 up now!

Posted by: Darunia Apr 15 2007, 02:35 PM

LOL def an interesting fashion statement by baldy.

Posted by: Portikins Apr 15 2007, 02:36 PM

Sub Kaka'. Put Oli on.

Rest the #22.

Posted by: misha Apr 15 2007, 02:37 PM

WOW!! Cafu and Favalli should have scored

Posted by: han2503 Apr 15 2007, 02:37 PM

This MESSINA GOALKEEPER

WHAT A DOUBLE SAVE


From Cafu and Yoann

Posted by: han2503 Apr 15 2007, 02:37 PM

That was Yoann

Posted by: Darunia Apr 15 2007, 02:38 PM

Yeah, almost 3-0. Kaka should be subbed out at HT if it's 2-0

Wow, defender gets hit in the balls.

Posted by: Il Capitano Apr 15 2007, 02:38 PM

Damn I hate this keeper.

favalli is playing very good today.

Posted by: han2503 Apr 15 2007, 02:39 PM

If we get another then Kaka and Pirlo should be taken off for Janku and Sergio

Put Yoann in the Centre, Janku on the left.

And Sergio as a left wing forward

Posted by: han2503 Apr 15 2007, 02:39 PM

Definately needed smeeling salts for that

Posted by: Portikins Apr 15 2007, 02:39 PM

Offside on Gilardinho.

Posted by: misha Apr 15 2007, 02:40 PM

My mistake

Posted by: Portikins Apr 15 2007, 02:40 PM

Yup. Those 2 need rest.

Posted by: han2503 Apr 15 2007, 02:41 PM

Our Brazilian wonder kid



Yeah, he really put his foot through that, great shot.

The score could have been 4-0 by now, really playing with confidence.

btw, that was a terrible tackle on Kala

Posted by: misha Apr 15 2007, 02:43 PM

Kaka missed an easy goal

Posted by: Portikins Apr 15 2007, 02:43 PM

Big miss by Kaka'. Feck.

Posted by: han2503 Apr 15 2007, 02:43 PM

Gila missed a sitter there. But great svae from this deamon keeper

Posted by: Darunia Apr 15 2007, 02:43 PM

AHHH Kaka should have a hat trick

Posted by: Il Capitano Apr 15 2007, 02:44 PM

what the hell, Kaka wasting a very good chance.

Posted by: Portikins Apr 15 2007, 02:44 PM

Viola 1-0 up against Siena.

Posted by: misha Apr 15 2007, 02:44 PM

We should have scored at least 5-6 by now

Posted by: han2503 Apr 15 2007, 02:45 PM

Definately, this keeper is like possesed and made some incredible saves

Posted by: Il Capitano Apr 15 2007, 02:46 PM

amazing tackle by favalli

Posted by: HasanHasanly Apr 15 2007, 02:47 PM

who is watching a live stream? this the second match i cant watch this season just because two channels that i have decided to show torino - atalanta

Posted by: Portikins Apr 15 2007, 02:49 PM

HT 0-2.

Now... time to rest Pirlo and Kaka'.

Posted by: Darunia Apr 15 2007, 02:49 PM

We're watching on bwin.com

Posted by: han2503 Apr 15 2007, 02:49 PM

HT: 2-0

Great performance, but should have really killed the game off

Posted by: misha Apr 15 2007, 02:49 PM

HT 0:2 easily

We MUST give Pirlo and Kaka some rest

Posted by: Il Capitano Apr 15 2007, 02:50 PM

B-win is showing the game but u have to register to watch the game.

Posted by: HasanHasanly Apr 15 2007, 02:52 PM

i found the bwin video, but its stuck i think... it has LiVE ViDEO STREAM written over the little box, and nothing else loads.

Posted by: Il Capitano Apr 15 2007, 02:52 PM

We are so bad att killing our matches.

We waste to many good chances.

Thumps up for Kaka,FAVALLI,Gourcuff

Posted by: dst Apr 15 2007, 02:52 PM

I think it'd help if we stopped shooting right at him...

Great first half!! Bravo Milan... Ricky should be more concentrated!

Favalli... well he's class!

Posted by: han2503 Apr 15 2007, 02:55 PM

The one fro Cafu was great and also from Kaka.

That sitter we missed was the one that was shot straight at him.

Still really proud of how they're playing.

Total control of the game, great one touch passing, and not tiring themselves too much

Posted by: rhy_A4 Apr 15 2007, 02:55 PM

i told u guys Favalli should play made some very good tackles and is good to rest Jankalovski i want 4 - 0

Posted by: Rossoneri7 Apr 15 2007, 02:56 PM

Did u guys see the first half ?!

FORZA MILAN !!!!!!

That is the performance we were lacking, Milan is slowly getting into form

Posted by: arivanjj Apr 15 2007, 02:58 PM

hmm.. Lazio 0 - 0 at half-time.

Posted by: Il Capitano Apr 15 2007, 03:00 PM

Kaka,pirlo and Gattuso should rest the second half.

Posted by: jefri91 Apr 15 2007, 03:02 PM

1 question guys did costa curta stop playing or what?? and also at defender's injury !!!

Posted by: dst Apr 15 2007, 03:02 PM

We can't take Pirlo AND Gattuso out at once, we'll lose control of the midfield.

Wigan 3-3 Tottenham on the 70'... anyone watching it? I really liked the way Tottenham played against Sevilla in the UEFA Cup!

Adriano red card... for Atalanta!

Posted by: Portikins Apr 15 2007, 03:03 PM

Half-Time.

Posted by: han2503 Apr 15 2007, 03:04 PM

No

I only want Kaka and Pirlo off.

Posted by: han2503 Apr 15 2007, 03:05 PM

Second half just starting

Posted by: fresh_prince7 Apr 15 2007, 03:05 PM

Perfect time for us to start peaking..

Least we can rest a couple of players now..

BTW will that go down as kaka's goal or kaladze's..

Posted by: Darunia Apr 15 2007, 03:05 PM

2nd half on the way

Posted by: han2503 Apr 15 2007, 03:05 PM

Kaka, it only deflected off of Kala

Posted by: dst Apr 15 2007, 03:06 PM

Yes, Costacurta stopped playing along time ago. He just can't live without football...

The goal will be credit to Kaladze I think...

Posted by: jefri91 Apr 15 2007, 03:12 PM

LOL I confused him with rui costa thats why I said I saw him play one game

Posted by: han2503 Apr 15 2007, 03:12 PM

ooooo Ronaldo should have done better there

Posted by: dst Apr 15 2007, 03:17 PM

LOL!!

That's why you wrote Costa Curta!? His name is Alessandro Costacurta (sometimes referred to as Billy cause he likes America a lot) and he used to be one of the best CBs in his prime. In the past seasons he just can't quit football I guess even though he's not able to play professionally anymore!

Posted by: Portikins Apr 15 2007, 03:17 PM

For god sake Carletto... rest Kaka'!

Posted by: dst Apr 15 2007, 03:19 PM

Carlo is afraid to take him out of the game...

I missed Yoann's yellow... did he dive inside the area?

Posted by: Darunia Apr 15 2007, 03:19 PM

Gattuso down.. not good

Walked off.. good

Posted by: misha Apr 15 2007, 03:21 PM

What a miss

Posted by: Portikins Apr 15 2007, 03:22 PM

OMG.

Posted by: han2503 Apr 15 2007, 03:22 PM

Clearance off the line from Kaka.

Serious injury to the Messina defender

Posted by: Portikins Apr 15 2007, 03:22 PM

Their keeper just "killed" their defender.

Posted by: Fillipo Simone Apr 15 2007, 03:24 PM

Hey guys, whats the result...?

Posted by: Darunia Apr 15 2007, 03:25 PM

2-0 66' min

Posted by: han2503 Apr 15 2007, 03:26 PM

Kaka and Favalli with the goals

Posted by: Portikins Apr 15 2007, 03:26 PM

0-2. Kaka' and Favalli. 65 minutes.

And Totti just scored his 20th goal in Serie A. 2-0 for Roma against Samp.

Posted by: Il Capitano Apr 15 2007, 03:26 PM

Cafu is no good

Posted by: Fillipo Simone Apr 15 2007, 03:27 PM

Now I feel better...Thanx guys!!

And what about that Fav-man? Scored twice in two games? What`s happening with him?

Posted by: arivanjj Apr 15 2007, 03:28 PM

Ascoli 1 up

Posted by: Portikins Apr 15 2007, 03:28 PM

ASCOLI scored! Ascoli 1-0 Lazio!!!

Posted by: han2503 Apr 15 2007, 03:29 PM

Great 5 pts away from the if it stays the same

Posted by: Rossoneri7 Apr 15 2007, 03:29 PM

The icing on the cake !!!

Posted by: han2503 Apr 15 2007, 03:31 PM

And the Cherry on top will be Inter winning tonight and move permanently into 4th

Posted by: Portikins Apr 15 2007, 03:31 PM

Roma 3-0. Ferrari. What a great play and cross by Totti.

Posted by: arivanjj Apr 15 2007, 03:31 PM

isn't messina known as the dirtiest side in serie a?

Posted by: Portikins Apr 15 2007, 03:31 PM

Lazio equalizes.

1-1.

Posted by: Portikins Apr 15 2007, 03:31 PM

That's Buve.

Posted by: han2503 Apr 15 2007, 03:32 PM

Yeah, they already have 4 yellows so far

Posted by: han2503 Apr 15 2007, 03:32 PM

Those are a serie B side

Posted by: misha Apr 15 2007, 03:33 PM

Kala saved us

Posted by: han2503 Apr 15 2007, 03:33 PM

We have switched off

Posted by: arivanjj Apr 15 2007, 03:33 PM

Posted by: dst Apr 15 2007, 03:35 PM

Posted by: han2503 Apr 15 2007, 03:35 PM

Posted by: han2503 Apr 15 2007, 03:36 PM

I think we are switching on again

Posted by: misha Apr 15 2007, 03:36 PM

Serginho in Gila out

Posted by: Darunia Apr 15 2007, 03:37 PM

Kaka should be rested, bring on Ambro or Oli

Posted by: han2503 Apr 15 2007, 03:37 PM

This is going to be good

Posted by: Portikins Apr 15 2007, 03:38 PM

Roma fans celebrating Ascoli goals in the Olimpico.

If I ever find the mofo that's playing with the switches...

Ronaldo's passing his been off today

Posted by: Portikins Apr 15 2007, 03:42 PM

Lazio 2-2. Fvcking cvnts. I guess they'll have time to score the 3rd.

Posted by: han2503 Apr 15 2007, 03:43 PM

They've been very lucky so far these past few months so don't be so surprised if that happens

Posted by: han2503 Apr 15 2007, 03:43 PM

Ronaldo!!!

Great skill

Posted by: Darunia Apr 15 2007, 03:45 PM

Ronaldo goal, after some great posession/passing

Posted by: whoarethepatriots Apr 15 2007, 03:52 PM

Roma 4-0 up, Panucci scored

Posted by: han2503 Apr 15 2007, 03:52 PM

Messina scored.

Rino pulled out of the tackle to not get the card

Posted by: Darunia Apr 15 2007, 03:53 PM

10 I think


Kaladze got owned, but it doesnt matter, last kick of the game

Posted by: Portikins Apr 15 2007, 03:53 PM

1-3. FT.

Kaladze... always the same ****. Every single game. Sell that fcker.

Posted by: han2503 Apr 15 2007, 03:53 PM

FT: 3-1

Should have kept the clean sheet, but I think it was a good decision to net get any cards

Posted by: Darunia Apr 15 2007, 03:55 PM

Good game, Milan dominated... should have been 5-0 but 3-1 is a good result.

Posted by: dst Apr 15 2007, 03:55 PM

I think it's 7 in the league...


Oh OK... so April 15 it's officially the Aged Fullback's Day!

So it is... a win, 3 points, 4th place!

thanks boys!!

Grazie Milan!

Posted by: arivanjj Apr 15 2007, 03:55 PM

Posted by: whoarethepatriots Apr 15 2007, 03:57 PM

"You didn't predict Kaladze did you?"
I guess not

Posted by: redbabies Apr 15 2007, 06:01 PM

good match
extremly important 3 points

excluding that mistake from Kaladze, the defence did a good job, especially as there were a total different back 4 from the last match.

p.s. we'll miss Ronaldo against Man U.

Posted by: misha Apr 15 2007, 06:26 PM

Love is in the air

Posted by: andi_sant Apr 15 2007, 06:53 PM

Good.. Milan win again

Next victim is Ascoli..

Posted by: Jack Sparrow Apr 15 2007, 07:01 PM

Milan will lose against Ascoli. Too many tired players...

Posted by: MizNelson Apr 15 2007, 07:19 PM

What did Kaladze do that allowed Messina to score?

Posted by: andi_sant Apr 15 2007, 07:24 PM

Are you sure?

Posted by: Fillipo Simone Apr 15 2007, 07:27 PM

Nooo...Ascoli cannot beat us...no way...

Posted by: fresh_prince7 Apr 15 2007, 07:43 PM

Why didn't carlo bloody rest kaka'. He looked heaps tired the other night in the bayern clash in the 2nd half. Hopefully gets some rest next game since we need him in peak form to show ronaldo who the real #1 is.

Anyway palermo leading 1-0 after 10 minutes.. does anyone smell match fixing in the air.

I think Inter's unbeaten season is too important for them to screw it up...but then again who can say...Milan without CL next season,might be a death blow.

Posted by: andi_sant Apr 15 2007, 07:58 PM

I hope Inter can beat Palermo.

The 4th place is VERY IMPORTANT FOR MILAN.

Posted by: Portikins Apr 15 2007, 08:01 PM

The usual.

Posted by: misha Apr 15 2007, 08:16 PM

That's why so good that even if Palermo wins today the 4th place still depend on us

Posted by: fresh_prince7 Apr 15 2007, 08:20 PM

I want this game seriously investigated.. palermo haven't been a threat in ages and their bloody leading 2-0.

Would not surprise me if the merda compromised their unbeaten season to make us miss out on 4th spot, its the sort of low they'd sink to.

Posted by: bigmacmtl Apr 15 2007, 08:28 PM

and a perfectly good goal was disallowed for palermo so a supposed foul, they should be 3-0.

Posted by: redbabies Apr 15 2007, 08:29 PM

who gives a fcuk about inter

the only one that will be hurt from this defeat from Palermo, are Inter. They won't finish the season without defeat.

We'll have the 4rth spot 100%, maybe 3rd 50%.

We are just too strong, and probably will win all the next matches (ok maybe we'll make 1 mistake, but thats nothing )

Posted by: bigmacmtl Apr 15 2007, 08:34 PM

"dont count ur chickens before they hatch" - i knew this would happen and inter would end up dropping points... some of you were acting as tho palermo already lost the game

Posted by: fresh_prince7 Apr 15 2007, 09:07 PM

Well its 2-2 now which will do, since we still have a game in hand.

Maybe palermo are just back in form.

Huh?

Posted by: han2503 Apr 15 2007, 09:12 PM

Carlo said that Kaka could sit out against Ascoli

Posted by: bigmacmtl Apr 15 2007, 11:27 PM

sorry i was in a rush so i typed it too fast

Posted by: Rossoneri7 Apr 15 2007, 11:52 PM

This performance should be a bench mark for how Milan should play the remaining games !! Cuz from now on, we are playing for 3rd place and CL final.

I hope I don't jinx Milan for how hopeful I feel that Maldini will retiere on a high note ..

We had a very lively attacking team at the moment, a very solid and intact midfield, and the best defence in Europe at the moment

Posted by: Jack Sparrow Apr 16 2007, 12:06 AM

^^^^^
With or without Kala?

Posted by: Rossoneri7 Apr 16 2007, 12:27 AM

With hot sauce on the falafil

With Kala .. Jack

If we are winning the matches with more than a 1 goal difference. Kala should be given a chance, he hasn't been playing regularly and I believe he plays good enough for this team. I know many don't see much into his contribution, he might even leave at the end of this season (maybe to make a deal with Barca more interesting) .. But that doesn't cancel out the fact that he has given a lot to Milan and at some point in time won a CL, two scudetto, and God knows what else with this club.

Ok .. too dramatic, f@ck kala we have Nesta and Maldini

Posted by: dst Apr 16 2007, 12:32 AM

you think??

He's only good (just good) at left back. When he's playing at CB it's like we've only fielded 10 men...

Posted by: misha Apr 16 2007, 12:38 AM

Kala leaves and it is help us with R20? That would be Porty's wildest dream come true. 2 in 1

When he is fit = good rotation player with experience (better than simic)

Posted by: Rossoneri7 Apr 16 2007, 12:54 AM

Of course, what did you think, he was gonna bench Maldini

Posted by: misha Apr 16 2007, 12:58 AM

He can't even bench 1/10 of Maldini

Posted by: dst Apr 16 2007, 01:01 AM

1/10 of a Maldini hair...

Posted by: Rossoneri7 Apr 16 2007, 01:08 AM

Maybe he will leave, yeah. Cuz we'v got Bonera who has been showing signs of a Milan quality player ... Kala should be sold, he is getting injury prone .. He hasn't gotten more than 2 games under his belt ever since he got back from a long injury. It isn't worth it, we need a defender we can rely on. Maldini isn't that reliable and Costacurta has just hung up his boats.

U like that don't u, Nesta's b1tch

Posted by: misha Apr 16 2007, 01:12 AM

Blasphemy

Posted by: Portikins Apr 16 2007, 01:13 AM

I doubt. He's a close-friend of Berlusconi's daughter... at least it was.
But the day that **** leave Milan... I'll have champagne at dinner. What a dream.



Sell him... throw him... fire him.... <anything> him!

Posted by: Rossoneri7 Apr 16 2007, 01:15 AM

I know

As dst would say, sh1t happens



Then get ur champagne porty, u old enough to drink

Porty sounds more like a sherly temple kind of ... ok

Posted by: dst Apr 16 2007, 01:18 AM

Posted by: Rossoneri7 Apr 16 2007, 01:23 AM

Exactly!

It was a j/k ... Didn't know u were sensetive about it

Posted by: Rossoneri7 Apr 16 2007, 01:26 AM

I am

Posted by: MizNelson Apr 16 2007, 05:17 AM

7,5 PAOLETTI. Evita al Messina l’umiliante goleada. Almeno 4 le parate decisive.
6 DIDA. Ordinario pomeriggio, con qualche bella presa al volo.

I always thought Il Giornale were birdcage liner, but after the above I have since downgraded my opinion.

Posted by: han2503 Apr 16 2007, 07:29 AM

At all the Kala jokes.

But despite him not trying to do better I don't think yesterday's goal was all his fault.

I like how everyone keeps using him as their target when we conceed a goal But I still don't think yesterday's goal was all his fault.

Posted by: fresh_prince7 Apr 16 2007, 12:22 PM

Since when did billy hang up the boots.. I'm either having severe memory lapses or some how have missed this..

Oh yeh who ever mentioned about galliani with the red hat, think it was ari. Absolutely priceless, he looks like he's mentally slow or something along those lines if that wasn't already known by some of his actions.

That's why I generally only check Datasport.it's ratings. They're usually pretty accurate. Here are their ratings for the two keepers:

Paoletti 6.5 -Incolpevole sui primi 2 gol ha salvato la sua porta in diverse circostanze. Fa un autentico miracolo al 40` su un tiro ravvicinato di Gilardino. Sul terzo gol di Ronaldo poteva forse fare di piu`.

Dida 7 -E` tornato il Dida dei tempi migliori. Sempre sicuro nelle uscite. Ha parato anche dei tiri molto insidiosi.
