I'm hungry. Need the some official match as soon as possible.

Gonna play the winner of the leg: Red Star Belgrade - Cork City (The 2nd leg is next Wednesday and it's 1-0 for Red Star, and they play at home the 2nd match. So we'll probably going to Belgrade...)

First leg will be played on 8/9 August in San Siro and the second one on 22/23th.

Let the party begin!

PS: I hope some MOD change the Topic Title soon, putting the right things, when the confirmation come out.

I'm starving

Everybody is hungry, so Carlo should cook something for us

I hope we don't jinx this by opening this thread before UEFA even accepted us into the CL. Remember we aren't sure we are even going to be in it

True. But, we all hope so. Would be a shame for the nº1 in UEFA ranking not to be in the CL...

#1 .. That is news for me

You can check it every time you want.

OK. Italians dominating. I hope this chart will be the same next year this time. Though it will be hard to keep it like this.

Please visit web sites of Red Star fans http://www.delije.net

.. A translator please ..

Do you need one???
I can only guess what's written there.
"Oh my god, we'll play against Milan , why, why, why? "

No!!! We dont fear any world club, and web site is about Red Star fans (Delije) not club!!! I just wanna present you what we are. We dont care about game, we only chear for our club! And i think with out new players we can pass Ac Milan in CL. Just Like we passed Ac Roma with 3:1 (for us) score

ciao rossoneri

I didn't get who is this
FORZA MILAN:devilsmiley:

Cheers, man! Good attitude. I like people who think positive, even when facing big clubs.

Well, we'll see if we can participate on the CL tomorrow...

First off welcome to our site..

Secondly, good luck on the match cuz if you think Roma were something to compare with, well you'll need luck..

Thirdly, almost everyone here is friendly so enjoy the forum

*double posting*

Tomorrow 14:00 (Italia)... is the veredict.

Can't wait...

i hope you will participate in CL.

Welcome Delija

It's nice to have fans from opposing teams on here - especially when they're well behaved!

Good luck in the tie.

Apparently 4 defenders are going to miss the first leg (Nesta, Maldini, Cafu, Bonera!), so 100% focus is going to be needed. I'm guessing we'll line up something like this at the back...

Dida

Simic - Billy - Kaladze - Favalli

Should be interesting!

Oh my god 4 defenders out?! ... it's good the first leg is at home.

Ur not serious

Well if Billy could keep a clean sheet against Barca, I guess he could hold on for another 90 mins .. although another defender should be brought in other than Bonera

I also though Kaladze was going to be out, that's why Carlo said he would use Favalli in the centre.

Man if we are going to sign another defender we better work fast

Let's see what we'll do tonight in the friendly. Maybe Carlo will only use 3 defenders

---------Simic--Billy--Favalli---------

Yes, he's out too, along with Nesta, Maldini, Cafu and Bonera, like m1ke stated before. Ancelotti said he will try Brocchi on the right and Favalli as centreback. So it should be something like this:

-------------------Dida----------------------

Brocchi--Costacurta--Favalli--Serghino

Oh yeah I forgot about Serginho and Janku

OK... it's confirmed. Milan vs. Red Star ' 9th August ' San Siro - 1st leg - 19:45

Some moderator update the topic's name, please.

I heard cork city where a really lousy team is this true and the ruselt is just flattering Red star too much? (one of the goals was an own goal though)

Ah, forgot about Kaladze! I'd rather play Simic at right back than Brocchi.

Simic - Billy - Favalli - Serginho

Totally right

X-offender said that he didn't impress at right back, and Favalli was surprisingly good in the middle, so I would use your back line for this match

Why not Janku as LB? He is more defensive than Serginho and considering Favalli is not that great of a defender, I think we should really think about it.
BTW, the average age of that backline is 35...

Sad, isn't it???

I'm Utterly confused: Is it Crvena Zvezda or Red Star Belgrade?????
Anyway here's my starting lineup:
---------------Dida---------------------
-Simic--Billy---Kaladze--Serginho---
-------Gatusso©----Vogel-------------
----Kaka------Gourcuff----Janku-----
------------Gilardino-------------

It's the same thing. Red Star in their language means Crvena Zvezda

maybe its something like Lille is called LOSC Metropole in uefa.com

Serbian| |English
Crvena = Red
Zvezda = Star

Kaladze is not availble...
What happened to him anyways? Anyone know anything?

That is a very worrying backline, why oh why didn't we sign a decent defender because we are now gambling with our CL future.

Isn't he injured?

The backline is probably going to look like it did yesterday against Lecco.
This means that Milan will play like this.

Brocchi-Costacurta-Favalli-Jankulovski

I am getting a bit worried. This backline is horrible. All those four should be sitting at the bench, well mabe not Janku but he is close.

I like your formation, but why no seedorf he was easily our best player yesterday.

BTW Kaka and Kaladze are not available for this game

What?! You mean Kakà won't play against Red Star?

Yeah, why not? I don't remember anything being said about that...

A little history from acmilan.com

ALL ABOUT FC RED STAR BELGRADE
8/3/2006 3:19:00 PM
Fudbalski klub Crvena zvezda – FC Red Star Belgrade

The club was founded in 1945 and their uniform is comprised of a red and white striped jersey, red shorts and red socks.

Trophies: 24 State Championships, 21 National Cups, 1 European Cup, 1 Intercontinental Cup.

Red Star's city rival is FK Partizan. The Serbian league starts on Saturday and their first game is at home against Voždovac Belgrade.

President: Dragan Stojkovic.

Coach: Dusan Bajevic.

Red Star eliminated Cork City to qualify for the third preliminary round. Score: Cork City-Stella Rossa 0-1 (1 goal Behan), Stella Rossa-Cork City 0-3 (Milovanovic, Zigic 2 goals). Lineup (4-4-2): Randjelovic; Pantic, Bisevac, Joksimovic, Basta; Perovic, Jankovic, Kovacevic, Milovanovic; Georgiev, Zigic.

Red Star has played against an Italian team 19 times: with 3 victories for the Biancorossi, 6 ties and 10 Italian victories.

Red Star has played Milan once: in 1988 when Arrigo Sacchi won his first European Cup, they met in the final-sixteen, first leg in Milan (1-1), then second leg in Belgrade where the game was suspended due to fog, an amazing shot by Van Basten was cancelled in the rescheduled game and after 120’ with the result still 1-1 they went into a penalty shootout, in which Rossoneri hero Giovanni Galli scored the winning goal.

Kaka hasnt been used in the friendly match against Lecco
Ancelotti said that Kaka needs to work and the players who have been used in this game will play against Red Star

Man I can't see us playing with that defense, they where messing up too much in that friendly, our midfield and attack are fine, I think that if Gila would try and do more work in his dribbling and shooting skills I think that he could do something similar to what Sheva did, yesterday he was playing that role and I thought he did really well his passes and through passes where all precise for Pippo that gave him to clear chances to score. All he really needs to work on is shooting from distance and I think he could work much better next to Pippo

That's what I'm hoping for too! I think he will surprise us this season! Forza Gila!
And as for the defence... I really think we should play with a lone striker... and two defensive midfielders! That would make us more defensive. Just a thought.

I think so too, we definately shouldn't go on an all out attack, I think red star will play very defensive like what PSV did last yer against us in the group stage we had a million shots and the ball was constantly at our feet but they basically played with 11 players in the box, so we shouldn't attack much because we might get caught on the counter and looking at the old legs inm our defense I can see us conceede if this happens.

We should start off coshiously and see what they will do, then try and play our game, hopefully we will keep a clean sheet and score atleast 2 goals
