Exactly. Did you see how he missed the tackle minutes ago? Could have been his second yellow.

Merkel will get sent off at this rate...

The Catania players know he's the weakest link and are going down everytime he touches them

And now again! Gee, Allegri, take him off!!

Merkel playing out of position, awful results.

robinho has been a bit off and catania are trying to get merkel sent off

This match is so hard to watch...

Enough with the long balls!!!

Was it offside every time Ibra touched the ball so far?

He's actually not playing out of position.

Merkel is not out of position, he's been playing in the same position practically every week. The problem is that the Catania players have been putting a lot of pressure on him because they know he's the weakest link in the midfield

Merkel is a trequartista guys, not a side midfielder. He can't defend.

cassano had a good chance earlier

+1

This match is really hard to watch. No rythm, no flow, no tempo. I don't ask them to play like Barca, but this is really bad.

Ref needs to ball up and give out some yellow cards for diving. Catania looks like they're playing ball on a swimming pool instead of a football pitch.

It's all about the midfield ,it's a big problem,these injuries.What do you expect...

Emanulson should replace Merkel.

Pato should enter,I saw Allegri give him some instructions in mid first half.

Catania please go to serie B already we're tired of comming down to this dump and your stupid fouls and dives must stop its pissing off !!!

Imo, Merkel needs to come off, as soon as that second half starts. Pato needs to come on for the invisible Robinho. We need something we're not going to score at this rate.

The midfield looks disjointed, Yepes is really pissing me off with his long balls to the right that end up either out or back with the opposition

Not to mention most of our build up play has to pass through Bonera,lol.

+100

do it Max please !!!!!

Pretty much sums up what I think about the game so far.

Merkel is not ready for Catania away from home by the looks of it. I think Emanuelson can be useful in attacking but I don't know if he can tactically survive this crazy Catania team. Robinho has been bad. We miss a real trequartista, don't we?

Emanuelson in. Smart move.

VB sent off, nice one

wtf

Red van Bommel.

WElcome Van Bommel

van Bommel red carded. Not deserved IMO. The ref could have let him sly. Could be his reputation that contributed.

Van Bommel. Never thought this would happen.

Agree with Filippo, Bommel only really made 2 fouls, the Catania players have been playing dirty all game. Bad call imo, and could cost us dearly

That was totally bullshit. No way he deserved a yellow card there

MVB's first booking was a horrible challenge. It was sly because it looked like he tripped him but you watch it again and you realise he stamped on the guys ankle. Horrible player, get out of Milan please.

Sokratis in. Meaning Thiago back to DM and Robinho out?

Robinho!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why aren't the catania players getting carded? They've been fouling Ibra a lot, not consistant

we need a goal from something

GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

BINHO!!!!!!

The first one was bad but this last one was nothing.

Goal Robinho!!!!!!!!!!

F@ck Yes !!!!!!!!!! Get In!!

Robinho!!!!!

Nice free-kick from Ibra, Robs with the rebound in. He finally scores

1-0 robinho..... Now we can make the change if we want to

Peeh, he can hit the target after all.

Not Papa, Oddo in.

Yes Robinho.

Now hold on, 1-0 will do fine.

Why Oddo, not Sokratis. Bonera in the center really worries me....

umm...Oddo?

Between him and Bonera on, we're playing with 9, not 10!

where will oddo play RM

+1

Pato warming up, but can't really see a point to it. Ibra needs to stay on while Robinho is better at staying back in midfield and helping out

Oddo - Rb, Bonera CB, Silva - DM

I always thought Van Bommel would actually earn his first red card. Oh well, cowardly divers get what they deserve. SCORED ON.

lol this ref is really killing me

Oddo worries me.
