Where you been baby!!

and surely he would have never, never, ever ... I repeat ever score that essential opener.

One legged, 45 year old Pippo with a rapidly developing Alzheimer's disease over Gila any day.

Forza Ragazzi

WELL SAID!!!

Nice post!
+1

Great News!! - woohoo

Hahahaha - LOVE It!

you know what, i'd be ok with that

Interesting. Datasport doesn't beat around the bush. Pippo's 8 is a bit high, though, considering all the sitters he missed in the first half.

(Yuck, I hate typing when my hands are all sweaty... )

Nelson Rivas is one ugly mother f***er!

Check out Scumarazzi in this shot. Absolutely priceless. It's a big pic, so I'll just post the link.

I don't care who he plays for, I will ALWAYS like Materazzi!

Glad he had a bad game today though. As for the ratings, Pippo - 8? Scoring an easy goal and mising 5 eay chances doesn't mean you'ev had a good game. The Ambro - 9 is about right though, otM easily for me.

Why?

I have just always liked him, I think he's great. One of my favourite players ever, seriously.

So what is your point then? Ambro is better Paolo LOL that is one of the funniest things I have ever heard.

Ambro made that silly foul which led to the goal then, not content with that, he did it all over again later(almost same position as well). Now if that doesn't make him a liability then I'd hate to see one of your bad players.

as for ambro setting up the goal, I've seen Brocchi, favalli even kaladze set goals up does that make them better than Ambro?

I feel your point is rather tenuous as it's obvious you are an Ambro fan and refuse to see any mistakes he makes.

If you look at the fan just to the right of centre he looks like he's going to fly out of the stadium

I'm sorry but some of those ratings are ridiculous.

I agree with goal.com's ratings. kalac was good, Favalli was excellent I thought. Ambro was amazing, Pirlo was.. so-so.

This is the Milan I've been waiting for. They dominated the merda for like 75 minutes.

Say what u want about MAX but he was MVB today.

P.s Rivas is an ugly mother fvcker.

That's the best day of my life

I'm really sooooooo happy at the moment!!

We won against Inter, they have not yet won the title and I really hope for Roma that they'll get it !!!

Fiorentina have lost and we are 4th and so far in the CL again !!!
It's just really really great

FORZA MILAN

Thing is we have had an excellent day today, but we need to win next week or it will all be in vain. A win next week and we're almost guaranteed CL next season

Nothing better than beating the merda though, especially as it puts pressure on them now with Roma winning today

Sweetness would be us getting CL next season and Roma winning Lo Scudetto

Even when he smashed Sorin's face for a couple of years ago? Ow when he flew into Shevchenko's hip with a straight leg?

Hip ?? That was straight to his nutts !!!!

I will cheer wildly for Materazzi when he's wearing the Azzurri jersey. But only then, cos he plays for the lower-case-m merda. However, in his favour is the considerable charity work he does in his free time.

Milan always made us dream my friend

One of the things I love about Milan, is when the pressure is up .. No one can match this team's maturity and motivation



My friend ... You better not watch anything involving Milan next season, not even this forum !

See you

Because he hasn't seen this, Matrix at his best http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WJPKM5aJGW8

Really? I never knew.

He gets it as good as he gives it, in my opinion. He's been headbutted a few times!

Playing for Inter, at least for me, doesn't matter. I don't hate Inter, I'm not from Milan, so I've not grew a hatred for them.

Strange, I've never seen him provoking anyone...and both THOSE headbutts came after he smashed Sorin and tried to re-arrange the original position of Shevchenko's limbs...

Gotta admit, I did smile when he came out worse than Kaka after the challenge between the two of them today.

That said, the Matrix hasn't been in very good form this year.

(Locke, he does a lot with Unicef and other childrens' charities.)

Glad we won this important game .we won over our rivel deraby Inter
we got in 4 place. Milan played so well. they control most
of game. I'm so proud of them. Pirlo returnd the good play. Nesta
played so well in defence. Sure Inzaghi was the reason for our victory
and joy. Kaka also play good

we'll see...i'm not sure how long i can go without watching

LOL

we'll be alright with you not watching till we secure CL spot

Great game, great result. And hail to King Pippo the immortal in front of all!

^^

Seriously...King Pippo....theoretically..he's more lethal than Pato.

I'm giving serious thought to having numero 9 retired. But then we didn't do it for MvB so I guess we can't do it for Pippo.

I don't know about you guys, but I won't forget the period of one year when he didn't score one single goal in the league. for me consistency is worth more than showing up in a few big games... few out of dozens of equally important ones. to be successful in the league you need a consistent goalscorer and Pippo IMO isn't one. he's been on ideal form only in our last 5 [league] games... he scored 1 goal in 14 games and then suddenly 9 in 5... I won't get carried away with it. I'd rather have a striker who consistently scores 0.5 goals per game.

And for that we had Gilardino aka 'the flop' and Ronaldo (injured all season long).

Pippo Inzaghi is 34 yrs old. He drove us into the CL spot. He scored the crucial goals in Athena. He was fundamental in the 2003 CL triumph ... I mean, he isn't getting any younger, but he remains to be SuperPippoInzaghi. Name one striker in the world that does what he does

I didn't say he didn't score in Athens, etc etc etc. I just said he hasn't been consistent in the league for the last few years and he hasn't been! it's undeniable. it has nothing to do with the fact that he is SuperPippo.

Again, he is 34 years old !! He is not 30 or 28 or 27 ... He was injured for the most part of the season. He came back for the Arsenal game, but it was clear he wasn't remotely as fit as he is now.

So yes .. You cant expect him to do what he used to do when he was 28 or 30 ... Rather expect him to be SuperPippoInzaghi when the pressure is on

Err yeah...when he's fit, he's still one of the best to lead an attack.

I do hate it when people point out, that he takes 5 attempts to score one goal. The fact is another striker might not even have made it to the position Pippo got in, for those attempts.

I hope he can play on for another 2 years. Would be good to see him hold on to the all time European scoring record, and not lose out to Raul. I'd like another Milan player to break that record, if it does happen.

I know he is 34yo and I didn't say I expect him to score in every game. I just think our best player was Kaka and yet Pippo is getting all the credit for scoring with a simple header [after wasting a few fairly good chances, including a one on one] on Kaka's great move and cross. I can't even count the number of goals he's scored thanks to Kaka's assists...

Well of course Kaka', it is too easy to say Kaka' because he is the creative spark to our attack. But if not for Inzaghi, I doubt Milan would be in 4th place today

And he missed the one on one yesterday ... he missed over 400 goals in his career. So what ?! He remains to be the European all time top scorer. Just say 'thank God we have Inzaghi on our team'


Football fans cant help but point to the flaws can they

That's because you look at the goals he's scored in the last five games not the goals he did not score from the start of the season till his recent injuries. like I said he had scored only 1 goal in 14 games before the injuries. and now he's scored 9 in 5. that's, in one word, inconsistency at its best!

I don't know what being the Athens final hero or Europe's top scorer have to do with what I said about us needing a more consistent striker in the league next season... Pippo is not what we need in the league and it has nothing to do with his greatness. you guys should seriously stop mixing one topic with another. why do you bring up what he's done in Athens or '03 campaign when I'm not even talking about the CL?

Tell me about it...poor Gila...

Awesome work rate, great determination, and doesn't mind being the punching bag for the team, yet all we can point out is how he's impotent in front of the goal.

You really think Pippo is the one driving us towards the CL spots?

Personally I think that if Kaka had stayed in his slump of form he had been going through this season we would be in 6th place right now not 4th.

Fact is that this team revolves around Kaka and if he doesn't play well then the team suffers. Who has been feeding Pippo goals by the kiddy spoon these past few weeks? Fact is that Kaka has assisted on 95% of the tap-ins that Pippo has scored.

I agree with 2003 CL triumph because Pippo was amazing that season, but these days unless you put the ball infront of him 5 yards from the goal he won't score.

Again reason why we should look to the future and not rely on our past. This season has already been difficuilt for Pippo in terms of injuries so I can only imagine that next season will be worse.

Fact is we need to take players like Pippo and R9 as added bonuses rather then a part of the team that you can rely on.

Good lord. I'm shocked at the nasty comments about Pippo.

Can we not celebrate a good TEAM win -- the team including Kaka AND Pippo?

I don't think you are getting me are you ?!

Pippo, set him aside, he is Super Pippo, he is untouchable as far as me or any Rossoneri is concerned. But, by all means bring in a new striker who can guarantee 20+ goals a season. Just don't point fingers at this hero, he is 34yrs old and has sold his soul to Milan a long time ago ! That is all I am saying.

As for Kaka' .. You don't need to tell me how crucial he is, I'v watched the games

Which team? AC Kaka? Or AC Pippo?

Sorry....but yeah...the dragon lady is right...all you boys behave...

omg !!

han .. I am not about to explain to you how important Pippo was to Milan's triumph in the last 4 matches!!

If you cant see it, then I don't see any reason why I should convince you!


P.S. Who said Kaka' wasn't fundamental ?! And didn't I say that Pippo was 34 and not 28 to play over 40 matches a season

Wait R7, what do you care about more, the sentimentality you hold towrds a player that is fading away fast aside from a couple of purple patches here and there or the actual success of the team?

Because when Milan needed a good consistant scorer the most this season and the last one Pippo certainly wasn't there. Either he was on the treatment table or in terrble form.Fact is, this is the reason why Milan are in the situation they are in now.
