I just wish I was Barbara Berlusconi right now but winning this game was amazing !!
Abbiati did like 2 or 3 saves and they were great ! That was cause he only got 2-3 shot on him

Abbiati was decisive in our win today,I'd give him 7.5,7 would be minimum.
Abate was great,that's one fullback problem we don't have to worry about.
Zambrotta is also better from Antonini,an upgrade for sure even when not fully fit.
Seedorf was amazing,he proved again he still have something to give.
Robinho was good,but he should go for assists,since he can't finish at all.
Also,this is what we get from Pato when we give him the support needed,one of the best finishers in the world no doubt.

LOLZ Leo was without Samuel and Lucio...his best two CB's. Chivu and Ranocchia are a massive step down and have neither the pace and skill of Lucio or the defensive abilities of Samuel...even with their talents combined if Allegri lost 10-0 without Nesta and Silva the whole forum would have forgiven him and offered a shoulder to cry on. Pato and Robinho with a good support (thank you Seedorf and Boat) was a dream strikeforce that was never given the chance. I'm not suggesting that he had zero input into our win but I'd still be happy to see him leave

So when we win it's not down to him, but when we lose it's all down to him
We just beat Inter comfortably 3-0, and the scoreline was anything but flattering.
We didn't have Zlatan, Pirlo etc.

And we never had the reason we are top(Ibra), so what! Every team has a squad of players who should be good enough - obviously they haven't

Oh, and before the game all I kept hearing was that they had the best midfield and that would win them the game, I didn't hear anything about their CB's...
Face facts, we beat them fair and square, in fact we should have put a few more past them.

What a game !! We were in control for long portions of the game .. Pato was decisive .. Seedorf (started out with blanks..) was impressive in midfield .. Van Bommel !! This player should definitely get a years extension at the very least!
I don't have words to describe this feeling .. The Scudetto is just 7 games away !!! And we passed the most important juncture to achieve that

Leo was without his best two CBs but they had everyone available in midfield and attack they still couldn't score a single goal. after we went up 2-0 they barely even got near our goal! I think Leo failed big time. just like he failed last season's derby big time! I don't care about him right now...
As for Max, if he wins us the league, I'd like him to stay next season as well. if he and his team somehow screw it up in the remaining games, I wouldn't mind to see leave leave ONLY IF a great coach replaces him. like Van Gaal.

Are you kidding me it was a blatant handball and should have been a penalty its not being biased it's called the rules of the game , if the ball hits the hand its a hand ball and rightfully a penalty i dont know how i can say it any other way Maicon handled the ball and it was not given it was crap refereeing through out the match pretty bad considering it's one of italys biggest matches each season. I'd go with what the commentators said them and the whole commentary team at half time who said it was a blatant handball and should have been a penalty i'm sorry but i'd take there professional opionion and judgement over yours mate or don't you want a penalty and a win ?
But we won regardless so what does it matter

Inter's got a terrible defense so we should be looking to exploit it.Chivu sucks really hard,so does Matrix.Cordoba is even worst,only decent player is Ranocchia,and he's coming back from an injury.
Milanarebrilliant:The hands from Maicon was a clear Penalty(the one from the seedorf shot),but to be fair we probably got away with a goal.So,all good.

i'm not sure of the timing but it was pretty close to our first goal check the replays later on it should be in the highlights it was so blatant im sure if you go back in the thread people would have written somthing about it.

Just had a quick look, I still think it would be harsh, though yeah I have seen them given. When I first saw it I thought it came off his left arm which was tucked in but his right arm was stretched out though I still think it's more ball to hand rather than him moving his arm to block it.
As for the comment about would I rather not get a penalty and a win

Very enjoyable match, even Tonio's red card couldn't dampen it for me.
We looked in total control from the start, though I was worried we'd peaked on 44 seconds. But we still created lots and plenty of big players had great games; Seedorf, Gattuso, Van Bommel, Pato, Robinho (bar his atrocious finishing) all deserve mentions for dictating the game from start to finish.
There is a suspicion Inter's terrible defence would have been far better with Lucio in the ranks, but you can only beat what's out there.
Last season, Jose's Inter crushed all - and while Leonardo has had a good start to life at that club, it was always the big games he was found wanting in - and so it has proved again, thankfully.
A satisfying victory all round.
I'm sure Barbara is very pleased.

Whenever iBra's out he has the opportunity to play this exact formation and overwhelm our opponents with the combined pace, movement and trickery me Pato and Robinho! What happened today is merely him not using ALL the other $h!tty lineups and tactics that failed before. But the facts of the matter are that he's been defended for losing drawing or not scoring against VASTLY inferior opponents whenever he missed even one crucial player such as Pirlo, Silva iBra or Nesta. So in all fairness to Leo the loss of his entire starting central defence is a big blow. I really hate to speak of this after such a marvellous and possibly historic victory but it's just my opinion.

We need to keep the same intensity in the remaining matches though. We still have Fiorentina, Roma and Udinese all away to play.
