right did you watch the video all the way through??? i'm talking about the 2nd save where the ball was crossed then headed back the way it came hence lateral movement across his goal...you have a nasty way of trying to embarrass people with your replies little man...stop it please you are the main reason why so many of us left this forum so have a little respect

I don't think you understand what lateral movement is.

Here is a good example. You can see how Cassilas adjusts his body, takes quick short steps and then makes a diving save.

And your blaming me because people on the forum left? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) yeah ok sure its all my fault, nothing to do with milan's decline over the last few years and people losing interest. All me (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

And you were the one who replied to my post, so yeah i'm gonna give you a reply and i'm gonna give you a harsh reply if you open your mouth without knowing what your talking about.

And in terms of respect? Respect is earned. What have you done that you deserve automatic respect. I give guys like Han and Jack and Filipo respect, at least they still stuck it out through the hard times and even if we dont' agree at times we still have good debates. Unlike yourself who rarely comes around and when they do they act like king tut.

Sorry bud, you don't get any respect from me.

I think people need to chilll the **** out.

[Bluesummers]

Really? After 7 years you go to the personal attacks?

Whats wrong? Daily life stressing you out brother? I know it can't be lateral movement thats got you so on edge.

So go ahead and vent if that makes you feel any better. Call me an egoistical piece of **** if that helps you.

I know milan has got us all on a little bit of an edge with the stupid **** that has been happening over the last few years but you know what I think we all gotta treat each other a little better. That goes to everyone here including myself. We've all known each other here for years and believe it or not we are like our own little family here at milanfan.com. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

So let me be the the first to say i'm sorry man, it wasn't my intention to sound like an asshole and If I did i'm sorry. If you wanna debate lateral movement lets do it in a positive and respectful way. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Lets skip the lateral movement talk. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/king.gif)

back to the game, decent result but the defence still is a worry and i feel without better players Juve, Napoli and Fiorentina will open the gap between us and them

[X-Offender]

So, I missed the second half, and I was watching the highlights... Boy, they really walked over us. The number of opportunities they had was crazy. Typical Milan.

I know that seems pretty obvious as we look so shambolic doing it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) , but I think as strange as it may be, defense is our strongest point. The overall plan seems to be(same as last year) squeeze in the goals one way or another and then hold on to it with all the grit you can muster. I think it makes it really difficult for teams that don't attack as a unit and lack world class attackers.

Anyways, this system is hard to get used to for us AC Milan fans as we are used to seeing Milan take charge of situations instead of let the other team dictate. We even did that against small teams last season.

I actually believe the biggest worry is the lack of pure creativity. A couple players with that play-making genius.

Quick example that I have seen happen over and over again: We win the ball, Mexes passes to Muntari, Muntari passes to El Shaarway and In the final third he hits a wall of defenders so we start making wide passes instead of keeping the momentum to going forward. (You can put in different player names, it's the same scenario)

Agreed. It's also the only unit in the team that has remained the same from last season and will be playing the same system from last season too.

Agreed, with this.

First off we were playing with Bonera instead of Zapata, Antonini instead of Abate and Constant instead of DS, aside from Mexes that's the second string defensive line. It's not the defence that's the problem but the team as a whole. We just have no strategy when going forward, like you said, it's always the same thing, either pass up through the right side or the left side, get stuck, pass backwards or sideways, repeat. It's seriously tiring to watch this team play.

At least defensively we know how to grind it out (while living on the edge), but attacking wise it's either punt it to the CF or just try to give it to SES, see what he can do with it, our midfield is still just not good enough and this is the main reason why we suffer so much. In the second half when Poli and De Jong were taken off we literally fell apart, because those 2 are the only good players we have in midfield atm with Monto not being called up.

Also, the fact that we play with Prince as our "creative" outlet is just a huge problem, I really don't want to see him wasted for another season playing behind the strikers or on the wing, he needs to be in midfield.

Something else I noticed, especially when Robinho came off, we can't seem to keep our shape, once Urby came on for him we got back to a very wide 4-3-3 and we just lost the momentum we had at the beginning

Getting hammered 3-0 inside the first 30

Traore is just so shocking, it's really unbelievable how he managed to be picked out of all the players they could have signed. My biggest wish is to know who recommended that we sign him because that person deserves a swift kick

[Jack Bauer]

4:0 after 30 minures (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) But we are fine as we are.

[han2503]

This is just so embarrassing!

Can we forfeit?
