QUOTE Ancelotti enters record booksSaturday 1 December, 2007Carlo Ancelotti believes Milan should have had a penalty as their draw with Juventus sets a new club record. “We struggled in the first half, but after the break Juve’s pressure dropped and we took control,†said the Rossoneri boss after tonight’s 0-0 at San Siro. This result set a new club record, as Milan had never before gone nine consecutive home games without a victory. “The statistics say we don’t score often enough at home. Today we had some good chances and have nothing to reproach ourselves for,†insisted Ancelotti. “We could have been a little luckier and there was a penalty incident on Alberto Gilardino.†Gila seemed to be tugged back by his shorts when stretching to get on the end of a dangerous Kaka cross, but the referee waved play on. “Juventus are a very compact side and they kept a lot of pressure on Andrea Pirlo. Ronaldo? We have time to get him back into shape.†Their form is causing concern ahead of the Club World Cup, which starts next week. “We are doing better than last season before the Christmas break, even if there are some players – especially in midfield – who must play continually. I think we have time to prepare for Japan.†Meanwhile, Juventus Coach Claudio Ranieri has his own theory on Milan’s shortcomings at the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza. “I can see why they are having problems here, as the pitch is like soap. For a highly technical team like Milan, it is the worst kind of environment.†::channel4:: Congratulations Carlo!!! (IMG: http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) There was no freaking penalty for God's sake, quit making excuses! Not even Juventus a couple of seasons back would have been given that... That last thing by Ranieri is simply stupid! And that dumb **** just gave one more excuse for Galliani to use... but I'm sure he already had that up his sleeve...

QUOTE (I_Rossoneri @ Dec 3 2007, 12:50 AM) Where are all the carlo fans? (IMG: http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) Yet another first for carlo the great, as if being the first Milan manager to concede 4 goals in a CL game and the first Milan manager to lose a three goal advantage in a CL final we now have this. Grazie carlo (IMG: http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) While I'm not Carlo's biggest fan, that's not fair to him. It's not black and white. And for me, there isn't much difference between the two extreme sides: Over adoring him or to bash him every time. Both wrong extremeness. As much as your are digging records to support your claim, others can point his two CL wins and many other positive things and records he achieved with Milan, and the debate can last forever. The truth, like always, is somewhere in the middle. I'm very greatful for everything Carlo has done for Milan (both as player and as coach), but I feel it's time to move on for him and for Milan, and we need someone new (with new ideas, someone who can motivate the players more, etc...)

He has done well, but he also had one of the best squads available to him as well. I do appreciate what he has done for us but his time has been over for some time now.

The time for this squad has also been over... it's not only Carlo's fault that we're 13 points away from the top and we're only in December!
