remember the days when we picked up our game vs BIG opponents,geez that seems so long ago

[Zed.D]

a cup we had no motivation for , remember its the uefa cup (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

That alibi has become a cliche. forget Bremen, remember Arsenal!

Out of curiosity, is there anything other than Pato that you DO like about the club, zeddie? The negativity and venom has been especially thick today.

Is it just me or isn't a 1-1 draw with Juventus worth making such a big deal out of?

Usually a draw with Juve is a good result, but this Juve are in decline and we really should have got three points from them.

Perhaps its not the club but the direction that management are taking us! Because of poor planning in the past we are in the state we are now. I can relate to the frustration that Zed.d feels.

Kalac 6 - Non sbaglia nulla e non poteva fare di più: uno dei pochi innocenti di questa brutta serata.

Flamini 5 - Va bene essere generosi e correre, ma fare il terzino vuol dire avere senso di posizione: salva due gol su due suoi errori. Il terzo, costa al Milan due punti.

Favalli 5.5 - Espulsione (gratuita) a parte, regge come può nelle retrovie.

Maldini 5.5 - Brutto il gesto su Chiellini per un Campione della sua caratura.

Zambrotta 6 - Il migliore della retroguardia: spinge bene contro Grygera e contiene le offensive.

Beckham 5.5 - Prova intangibile di David, forse intimorito dal giallo rimediato da Orsato.
- Ronaldinho sv - Il suo ingresso dà qualcosa in più, ma non sufficiente per dare la svolta: forse avesse giocato dall'inizio...

Pirlo 5 - Invisibile, non inventa nulla nella manovra.

Ambrosini 6 - A metà campo dà quel che può fino all'ultimo prova a mettere palloni in mezzo, ma non è il suo mestiere.

Seedorf 5 - Il gol zittisce le critiche forse, ma non può cambiare un giudizio ovviamente non positivo su una prestazione sottotono.
- Senderos sv

Kakà 4.5 - Ricalato nella catalessi che ne ha contraddistinto spesso le prove in questa stagione: cancellati gli ultimi progressi.

Inzaghi 5.5 - Praticamente mai servito: e se fosse entrato quel colpo, pochi secondi prima della sostituzione...
- Pato sv - Entra troppo tardi per dare qualcosa: forse un po' con la testa tra le nuvole

I assume these are from Datasport. Not much to complain about, but if that had been Dida's performance today he'd be getting a 5. Also, Flamini's rating seems quite rough.

Too bad that two classic matchups (Gigi-Dida, Maldini-Del Piero) that probably would've made the match more exciting were spoiled today. Thank you, fate.

I love Milan! not much the coach, I admit, and not at all the way the management have managed the club in the past couple of years. I want my club to be the best, naturally, and I see we're far from that. anything else? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) oh, out of players that featured tonight, I'd keep only Pirlo, Ambrosini, Kaka, Pato and Flamini (Gattuso, Abbiati and a few others as well - like a healthy Nesta) ONLY MY OPINION but I think the rest have contributed what they could and the club would be better off without them (EXCEPT MALDINI WHO IS GOING TO RETIRE).

Yeah, you're second in the championship with CL qualification guaranteed and the most promising talent in the world on the books. Horrible.
Look, I understand the dissapointment, but is the nihilistic veil of tears really a reasonable reaction? I think not.

Kalac making me kalac in my pants

WHAT WAS THAT!!!???

+1 piece of Fishdoll's peppermint bark to han for that one. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) Not because of the obvious; merely because it was just hysterical.

[whoarethepatriot...]

Normally i would be content with a 1-1 draw with Juve but several factors are leaving me unhappy.

Firstly Juve are utter crap at the moment, we should have finished them off

Secondly we have Udine, Roma and Fio to play, which are all very tricky ties (minus the Roma one, because in all probability they will self destruct)

Also i didnt see the game but did the brilliant defender by the name of Favalli get himself sent off? We make it a habit of getting players sent off against Juve, Gattuso before they were relegated, Bonera last year and Favalli this year

We can (and probably will) loose first place unless we dispatch the aforementioned teams

[Tennie]

The Favalli redcard was very harsh, whoarethepatriots. Yes, there was a foul but De Ceglie did exactly the same thing to Beckham early in the game and only got a scolding.

That said, the team wasn't anywhere near its recent form. The gobbi weren't all that great either, truth be told. A draw is probably a fair result.

[Nova]

I have to admit it , i had a little hope of catching merda , but after tonight ... ah well (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) i'll be happy with winning the scudetto and cl next year (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

[august_milan]

I hope your not holding your breath on that one Nova. With Galliani only wanting to buy old "experenced" players, aswell as our lack of funds and inability to compete with the english sides financially like our board keeps saying, we have no chance to ship out old and ineffective players and sign adaquit replacements, not to mention if carlo does keep on as our coach if his attitude doesnt change were doomed to another season with no silverwear.

[Tennie]

Good lord, there's a lot of doom and gloom today. You'd think the gobbi beat us 6-0. (and yes, I'm old enough to remember when they did).

Remember where we were last season, guys - an awful lot worse than this year.

by the way, the bit about Galliani and old players is based on a poorly translated article by a biased writer. Why are people so quick to only believe the negative things regarding the man and when he says somethign positive, they call him a liar?
