3-1 senne LOL sad sh*t.

LOOOOOOOOOOL Talk about pride

4-1 muller,

LOOLL

4-1

Bring the champaigne

I keep thinking. the more we los the better, hopefully the eyes of the management will open and see what shambles they have turned Milan to.

This only July and we are already writting off the season

what an embarracement, what a joke.

what will happen now

Silvio: "we had played so many games last week that the squad was simply too tired. Also bayern is in a better condition than us so its normal to get beaten 4-1 . Signings? we have many great champions like ronaldinho and seedorf who can lift this squad up, we are fine as we are"

Theya destroid my Summer im fealing like i lost one important thing in my life and that is Joy of wining from Milan...
I can't watch this phathetic games, we play like amateurs, Leonardo don't know a **** about tactic...

waited almost a year to see Silva...wish we could wait another year he looked awfull!

agreed bro, i feel the same. This team is just garbage.

did you see him shaking his head. He is probably wishing he didn't come to milan and chose another club that had come in bidding for him.

my sentements exactly !

...

i wish he had to!

Well. That was embarrassing. Even taking jetlag etc into account, that was just sad. At least Pirlo scored off a free kick (been a while since he did that).


Meanwhile, Fishdoll because he has been misquoted!



It's we suck (not Locke's) donkey balls!

And yeah, today we did.

I think we should go out and sell kaladze, oddo, storari, borriello, and jankulovski, pirlo, kalac.


Get that 30-50 million and go buy a decent cm, decent wingback and a good foreward and a good goalie. Then buy a few sub young defenders like di lorenzo.


At this rate I would rather have less with quailty than more with no quality.

I know that it's no longer his, but somehow it's really....it needs time to get used to it.
I saw the number 22 and then I realized that it's not Kaka...somehow it feels really bad!
He was my favorite player and I don't like even thinking about his join to Real Madrid....
FORZA KAKA

about the match. I think Kaladze did many mistakes. Eypecially on the last 2 goals of bayern

no comment.....

That was a horrible performance...Bayern totally dominated the games speed and stuff. Butt was unbelievably bad when Pirlo scored and the fact that a 19 yo kid made our defense look like idiots isn't promising either.
though on the bright side, Bayern are in a totally different state of the pre season. they have their first game on friday while we just came back from the US.

I think that whole New-Milan-Thing is getting in your head....
Pirlo was great today. He was far better than some others you didn't put on your sell list. but I don't mind to sell kaladze, because he was kind of terrible as usual and I hope than Leonardo won't let him play often.

another question. it was my first game today which a squard of leonardo....was it a typical formation of him today...i mean which jankulovski as a midfielder and ronaldinho+pato up front...
it looked somehow strange.

To answer the question, it was sort of a strange lineup.

The lineup v. Chelsea (when we actually played decently) was something like this:
Kalac
Zambrotta Nesta Silva Janku
Gattuso Pirlo Seedorf
Ronaldinho
Pippo Pato

Seedorf and Pippo both have knocks.

(And Fishdoll is very jealous indeed that you live in the city where DEMEL is.)

that formation looks way better than the one against bayern...
I saw seedorfs goal. it was quite nice. and ronaldinhos assist was great too. but it seems we still didn't impress...
i was wondering why Pippo didn't play today, because he normally is great against bayern. I love his goals against them

@fishdoll: i like demel. the cakes in their display window look great.
have you been to vienna with your nice owner

The key in the Chelsea game was Seedorf, who played well. He really did look good, not even counting the goal. It really is too bad Pippo wasn't fielded -- but better to have him fit for the season than for a friendly.

Fishdoll has indeed been to Demel with his person! He is amused -- his person ordered the rum cake and got just a wee bit drunk from it.

I decided to turn off when Schweinsteiger got the 2nd. Thank God I did!

Great Post - Definitely worth giving it a thought.
Though if it was completely true - the question would still then be raised... 'why not sell then?'


So true - and yet so absolutely depressing when you think of the reality of the situation
As a Milan fan you can't help but accept the fact that us winning the CL in 07 was as close to a miracle as it gets.



Just wait till our next game against Boca - If we loose what would we say then?!


+100 - I mean we have to get something good from this.
I've been feeling the same way...


LOL

I don't know why I laughed when I read this, it's just so possible seeing him say something foolish and amature like this. As fuuny as it may seem. It certainly isn't fun knowing you can predict your club president (of one of the most presitgious clubs of the past) say something so foolish and ill timed. It's like he say this sh!t to us all the time.
I wonder if he even realizes this. Or better yet I would love to know Silvio's real thoughts on Milan related incidents, because as we all know he always feeds the media BS (80% the time atleast).


Such a sad summer. Such painful years have gone by. Hopefully the future would be promising.
(...maybe we're just delusional)


Still - Forza Milan to the end of time!

Things like this are the reason why Italy can wave good-bye to the 4th CL place. "it's only a friendly" doesn't really work, it was only a friendly for Bayern too.

I'm scared for this season.

Well said... It is pretty Damn Scarey Indeed.
Something 'HAS' to give if we are going to win anything (or even place in a respectable finsih in the end)

I think the biggest problem at the club is also the hardest one to change. It's president.

These aren't friendlies. Everybody says this crap. These teams want to win. Barca played it's youth squad against Tottenhams full squad and they looked better than Milan. These big clubs want to win everything and preseason is showing a team that wants and has the quality to win. Has Man u lost and Barca lost. If they lost 4 preseason games in a row heads would roll.

And hey minimi bluesSummer was on this forum when Milan lost to Liverpool. Just like you we thought the same thing back then oh come it's not that bad. Let's be optimistic It's Been a disaster ever since and let's tell you Milan didn't win our last champions league. Kaka won it. Now we lost our Maldini of the new generation and the new Zidane gourcuff(I don't buy he's the new Zidane but that's what people say). If you ever been to San siro it's some of the most passionate fans on the planet they deserve better than this as well as the rest of us.

Bluesummer was saying let's rebuild two years ago like I was and we were right. I remember saying at this rate Kaka will go to Madrid everbody said no Kaka is true milanista yeah Milan spoke bad about Madrid for years and jumped on that cash like an addict on crack

Unless I'm very much mistaken, April 2006 is a good several months after the loss to Liverpool in Istanbul.

Speaking personally, I wouldn't call Athens 2007 a disaster. And I don't think Kaka was the only Milan player to do anything positive for the club during the CL campaign.

I also disagree that it's been NOTHING BUT DOOM since Istanbul.

Not going to get further into the Kaka discussion because I suspect the rest of the board would slaughter me.

And finally, speaking as one who goes to the San Siro more regularly than most of the people on this board, I'm well aware of how passionate the local Milan fans are (and no, I don't count the Curva Sud as fans, not after what they did at Milan-Roma. They're a bunch of thugs). They're not happy right now, or so my friends in Milan tell me. I'm not happy either. This preseason is a mess -- too many games in too short a period, far too much time spent on long haul flights for anything to be effective. The coach is totally inexperienced and I'm personally starting to worry about his ability to lead the team. The transfer market hasn't really been good since the team brought in Nesta and Rui Costa and that's been a good few years.

I don't agree with what Berlusconi is doing with the club - and he's calling the shots on the lack of transfer funds, etc. But I do still love the club and have tremendous respect for the players. They deserve support even if everything else sucks (not Locke's) donkey balls.

So, in short, I don't see the need to go on extended rants. I try to look for what few positives we can see (this summer, the recovery of Nesta is a big one and Abate has also been good when fielded) rather than focus obsessively on the negatives.

silvio better get ready to pray for his life, cuz if we start the seaon with this squad and dont start whinning the curva suda will do something i'm sure of it

yeah you will see the san siro empty. It will be a very tense environment in Milan where no player will want to come. It will just keep getting worst unless we start changing. We can use the squd is tired line all day but come august 8 and we are still playing like this, either 2 things need to happen. Leo needs to be sacked or we need to sign players. I think signing players is what we need because even a worldclass coach like ancelotti struggled with this team.

Sorry, forgot about Locke's donkey!
-
I think you guys are all wrong! it's good we're losing every game! because that's the only way the management will accept new top players are needed - and will do something about it. and I mean THE ONLY WAY. if we had won all of our friendlies, do you really think they would have thought about reinforcing? no way! they would have fed us the famous line, we are fine as we are.

As for our problems, I agree with Kurt. it's Berlu. I don't care if he can't or doesn't want to invest anymore, as I've said before, the day he sells the club to someone who's willing to spend £££ will be a very happy day for me.

I'm not a fan of this club because of Berlu. I don't care if he sells it to someone who's ready to make it great again.

Agreed. +1

Guys, firstly relax and calm down... I didin't see the game yesterday, but from the highlights and your comments I can make some conclusions. Actually I was shocked when I found out that Milan lost 4-1 cause when I went to sleep (too tired to watch a livescore) it was only 2-1. But... from the highlights it's obevious that the fatique was the winner in the battle against desire to win... You know what I mean. It's pretty hard to play when you have no time to take a rest and Kalac is your goal keeper. Lets see whats gonna happen tonight.

Storari was the goalkeeper. And yes, when you've just played a packed set of matches, a flight from US to Muncih is probably not the best way to get energy levels back up.

I don't give a damn about the pre-season. Even if we lost the match 10-0. What worries me, is we don't have a second string squad. Since our current squad is more or less second string.

We can challenge for 4th the way things are at the moment.

true 100%

How noble of us

We've become the modern era Inter, let's paartaay

I'll bring the booze, you bring the babes!

(You need to talk Fishdoll into giving it back, Jack. He's impounded your stash.)

I buy new ones! I pimp out dst.

So here's the starting lineup for the game that's just now started against Boca.

MILAN: Storari; Oddo, Thiago Silva, Onyewu, Antonini; Abate, Gattuso, Pirlo, Antonini; Ronaldinho, Borriello, Pato

silva gol, boriello assist
