Don Cesare nearly in tears,..
So.. we finish 3rd while a few weeks back it looked certain that we'd finish 2nd...
Waiting for the announcement, whether it confirms Carlo as the coach until 2014 or announces Leonardo or anyone else as the new coach. I can't wait anymore. hopefully we'll know tonight.

Goodbye Maldini.
Maldini gets a proper sending off this time it would seem.
And its only right, as he has surely deserved it.
Grazie Paolo - Thank You for everything you have given to this club (& us the fans!)

We finished level on points with Juve, but they have a better head to head, so they finish as runners up
Genoa and Fio finished level on points too, but Fio have better head to head. Would have been amazing to see Genoa in the CL next year, but i guess Fio will have to do. They better do a better job than last season

I'm sure they will. One important thing is CL practice. Second time is always easier then the first.

X 2!
According to Rai we're 3rd, it's on head to heads, Juve beat us 4-2 then we drew 1-1. We had a better goal difference too, oh well we're in the CL again anyway

I really wouldn't have liked having Genoa in the CL. It just means that Italy will probably have to start nex season CL campaign with just 3 teams. Genoa might have had a great season this time around, but it does not mean they'll do it again next season, not to mention they'll be losing their best players in the summer.
Fiornetina are the better option when looking at it from Serie As perspective. If it were up to me I would prefer Roma in 4th but sadly they aren't. For the sake of Serie A we need our 4 strongest teams next season. Serie A can't afford to lose co-efficient points or we might lose as CL qualifying spot. We cannot havce a repeat of this season when it comes to Italian clubs in the CL
Right han, I hope the three italian clubs we have in CL will do much better next season!

Carlo Ancelotti Confirms He Will Leave Milan This Summer, But There Is No Chelsea Agreement
Carlo Ancelotti has announced he is leaving Milan this summer, but he has not found another club just yet...
Milan coach Carlo Ancelotti has finally confirmed that he will be leaving the club this summer after he mutually agreed to terminate his contract with them a year early.
The coach has been hounding by constant press speculation linking him with the Chelsea hot seat. But, before Chelsea fans get carried away, the Italian has revealed that he has not found another club yet.
"Its simply that I had an agreement with the club, and we decided to anticipate the times and agree to end my contract, and thus my time with Milan finishes a year before 2010," Ancelotti told Sky Sport Italia after the game.
"It finishes with happiness as we have reached our objective and I would like to thank the club and all the players as well as the president and all the staff and fans.
"I think my time has ended in the right way and I think it's the best for both parties.
"These eight years have been a beautiful adventure for me."
The coach has stressed that he has no agreement with other clubs including Chelsea.
"I cannot officialise my future because there is nothing official," added the coach. I have not made any agreement with any club, and thus there is nothing.
"London? There are no certainties."
Asked who he will take from Milan when he eventually does join a team, Ancelotti responded with Paolo Maldini.
"Would I take a player with me? There is one [Maldini], but I don't think I will be able to convince him." concluded the coach.
Maldini has retired from football, making his final appearance during today's 2-0 win over Fiorentina.
