As promised I opened my woodwork post cool.gif

This obviously getting ridiculous, I think we have hit the post more times this season then we have scored actual goals. It's happening in EVERY game now.

I know I shouldn't be telling anyone this...coz Moratti said I'd be sleeping with the fishes, but pssst...hey it's the FIGC...

All are good options but I afraid it's the last one. It's like all the possible problems hit us this season.

The woodowrk curse...hmmm... I'll only quote Johann Cruijff
"If someone only hits the woodwork, it's not bad luck. It's a fault" Great Johann is right, this has nothing to do with bad luck, magnets or cornflakes (yeah, I know), it's just a fault by our strikers...

I'm sorry but Cruijff is full os sh!t, one of the best players in the world (one of my all time favourites also) but he doesn't know when to shut up. And his hate for Milan just doesn't sit well with me either.

hitting the post a million times in one season is not just a fault of the strikers and the midfielders.

Bringing in new players is out of the woodworks hands it's in Galliani's hands.

You read the part where they are pulling out on trying to get Higuan because it is 'impossible' right rolleyes.gif

I don't think we can expect anything big to happen in the transfer department, at least not for another couple of years

Yep.

If I was just watching the match as a spectator not as a fan of Milan I would seriously find this constant post hitting funny.

But since I'm not that and I want my team to win I find it annoying and STRANGE

There is a saying that goes ' a miss is as good as a mile' literally meaning a miss is a miss whether it be hitting the crossbar or blazing wildly over the bar. It's about time we forgot this whole pathetic 'the posts are getting smaller/against us etc' and just realised that we need to improve our shooting - nothing more noting less. Excuses are for losers.

If anything I think our players are VERY accurate. It's got to be some kind of art to hit the post that consistantly.

Right now we have hit the post as much as we have scored. And that is NOT normal.

And there is a difference between hitting the post and blazing wide by a mile or 2. All you have to look at to notice the difference is your reaction. Is your reaction to a player hitting the post and to a player blazing wide the same?? Ofcourse not, when you hit the post you probably curse at the screen and knock some things around, when someone blazes wide you role your eyes

Yes there is a difference, but after the final whistle; there is no difference wink.gif

What we are lacking, is for the ball to go in .. Hope the next game, our strikers will see their posts abit wider wink.gif

In the end the result is what counts, but people normally curse their luck when they hit the post ESPECIALLY when they keep hitting it costantly in every match rolleyes.gif

But we definately lack that killer instinct that we had last year. Last year all we had to have was 4-5 chances in one match MAX and we would probably win that game by 3 or 4 goals. That's how efficient we where last season.

This season we keep hitting theposts, missing chances that are begging the players to put them in and the opposition's keepers seem to pick up god sent form during our match, but then it fades away when they face Inter rolleyes.gif

I saw Gila score a great volley once. But Kaka's small goal was awsome
