If we win the Coppa .. It would be historic, since it would be the first time Milan ever wins a domestic double

I find it really strange that a club as big and successful as Milan has never won the domestic double

but it's never too late to make history

Because we never took the Coppa too seriously.

Exactly. We pretty much used to call it the "Inter Cup" just as early as 2004.

That's the attitude that has kept us away from winning the double in what, over 100 years. Never took it seriously. Now I want us to win this one this season, and go for the double. Personally my season will not be complete if we have inter celebrating the Coppa Italia.
If any other team won it then okay, maybe, but sharing the glory with our city neighbors is just not on this year.

We have the team to do this, and not winning today will be a disappointment. We took it easy in the first leg and are at a disadvantage, but this is the time for the Italian Champions to show up.

Nice to see so many members wanting a win today and in the final.

There were times when general fans and the team itself took this domestic competition as no real biggie. I guess inter winning the treble last season stirred some of us up. I on my part have always wanted us to go for the home run in the Coppa.
Sadly Carlo did not take this very seriously and focused on CL - now we don't even have that excuse. Forza Milan!

Actually, yeah, if that means we have three slow midfielders, it's too creative I suppose. No, it's too slow, earlier this season we played like snails vs Palermo and lost as I expected, now we wanna do the same? Drop one of those creative players and put pace and movement in, if Prince can't make it, then Furby!

If Milan lose this game and miss the final, Milan will come to my hometown and play against IFK Göteborg.
Why couldn't they do it both
Oh well what ever happens, it would make me happy anyway

Galliani says it would be nice to vist Sweden again.
- Aftonbladet/Sportbladet.
Edit: AC Milan will decide this week if they will come to Sweden. They have to see first how the game goes ofc

Weird incident. Silva raced out to the left flank to intercept a Palermo player, and ran into the back of Antonini! Looks like Antonini has hurt his knee, and has been stretchered off. Bonera coming on.

I agree,but Allegri would never do that(I've learn it the hard way xP).

I think antonini slipped before thiago silva's colliding with him then thiago silva collided with him

1:0 to Palermo.
We were playing awful since the beginning of the second half and it was fucking obvious that a change is needed. Max waited too long and now Zlatan is on to save the day.

I don't want to sound harsh, especially so soon from the winning the scudetto, but I deem Allegri as the main culprit for this knock-out. Why? Completely erroneous line-up in the first game and very late changes tonight. Seriously, I was screaming at the TV "Get Ibra in you friggin' moron" in the second half. It was plain evident we couldn't have done anything against Palermo with the initial line-up. But I don't wanna blame only Allegri. The players seemed half-arsed and without initiative. I mean, Pato, where the hell were you???
All in all, a very annoying defeat. Now le merde have the opportunity to actually win something and spoil our victory.

Completely agree with you. I'm more then disappointed. Allegri made everything wrong and I'm still not confident with this man, and never will be. He might be a scudetto winner but he isn't good for cup ties. His substitutions are unbelievable slow, his line-up wrong just like in the Tottenham match.
