Very lucky win today, we got owned. Chievo should have had 2-3 goals.
Dida 8- Surprising game by him considering his usual';tested on several occasions and made the saves. I hope it continues.
Zambrotta 7- Looked 21 today, very good game by him.
Favalli 7- Good game
Senderos 6.5 good game.
Janku 5- Can't defend, and we all know this to be true.
Pirlo 6.5- Average game by pirlo. Passing was great.
Ambro- 5 Not a good game him by his standards. Probably still getting fit.
Seedorf- 5.5 Wow, he should not have even played. Good finish on the goal.
Kaka- 3- Clearly should have been subbed at half, he needs more time to get fit.
Pato 6- Selfish at times but he did very good earning free kicks.
Inzaghi 5- Quiet night for him other than the assist.
Flamini 6- good passing and kept things in order.
Sheva/dinho- n/a.
Carlo -4- Almost cost us the game and was stupidly sent off. Should have subbed seedorf as everyone on the pitch could tell he was done at 75th.

Hi, hi, hi.

I missed the game after volunteering yesterday to work a Saturday shift (and had to fight to avoid being sent home because it was so slow). I made the most of it, though, by strategically placing some self-promotional homemade stickers right near the register. Five of eight were taken.

Why was Dida awesome today? He ditched the silly banana strip and went gray. Three straight games, zero goals.

Before the Napoli match, he ditched the Chia Pet look and got a haircut for his return to Serie A. It's the little things like that that make me love him.

Haha. Chia Pet look. Love it.

The championship was assigned in the final week, as Inter, who managed to secure even a 10-point advantage to rivals Roma in mid-season, lost almost all of it in the final weeks, maintaining only a one-point advantage with only one match to play.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serie_A_2007-08So it was ~10 points...

I perosnally can't understand any of these ratings
Zambro 5.5, but Janku gets a 6. Zambrotta controlled his flank clearly better then Janku did, not to mention the mistakes Janku made that could have cost us.
Ambro gets a higher rating then Pirlo does? How can that even be possible?
And Seedorf gets a 6? He deserves the same rating as Kaka did since both were pretty much terrible. Seedorf couln't even make simple first touches to get the ball under control most of the time, that's how bad he was.
As for Pato, I don't think it was a bad game per se, He was played out of position on that left wing, he kept running into brick walls and anytime he got ast his man he was brutally chopped down by the next Chievo player. But there were times that he was selfish with the ball, I think I counted 4 times where Kaka was free and could be released but Pato decided to cut through the middle instead of making the pass
i dint see the game but as soon as i saw the score i knew he was going to get an inflated rating

It's ironic about yesterday's game that the team's most hated players were the ones who saved our cans, while the fans' darlings were nowhere to be found.

Yeah i mean its bound to happen. At least one game a season should be saved for our less adored players to get some love.

that's what i thought
with the exception of last year, milan usually finishes seasons pretty strong...where inter are usually limping into the final week.
hopefully we can continue finishing this season strong.

I have hope in that Milan will finish strong .. But I have little hope in closing that 10 points gap.

Barring a Mancini style of collapse, we cannot hope to overhaul Inter. Our priority now should be overtaking Juve and getting some dignity back

Lousy ratings from goal. Mine...
Dida: 7.5
Zambrotta: 6.5
Favalli: 6.5
Senderos: 6.5
Janku: 5.5
Ambro: 6.5 (Coz of a bad first half)
Zee: 6 (Only coz of the goal)
Kaka: 5
Pirlo: 6 (He was the most creative in our entire midfield)
Pippo: 5.5 (Assist aside, not his day)
Pato: 6 (Ineffective, but they were out to kick the cr@p out of him!)
Subs:
Flamini: 5.5 (Added fresh legs, but little else)
Ronaldinho: 6 (Should have started instead of Zee/Kaka)
Sheva: 5.5 (Made movements, got into good positions, but still looked out of sync with the team)

"Dida: si ripresenta nelle sue migliori condizioni al momento più opportuno, con Abbiati ricoverato nel reparto lungodegenti.
A lui va il merito di non aver fatto capricci né strepitato al momento della sostituzione continuando a fare il suo lavoro coscienziosamente e in silenzio."http://it.eurosport.yahoo.com/stefano-benzi/article/8702/Oh, if only Clarence would take a page out of his book.

Hopefully he can keep his mojo going against Torino this Sunday.

Not just Clarence; a lot of people could benefit from that behavior.
(Fishdoll note: we may see how the gobbi deal with the situation as rumor has it that Del Piero is being benched for the weekend's game against the cugini).
