I don't get how one match can be proof for us that Allegri surpassed his mentality?


It is a start,be optimistic for a change.

There's no amazing coaches on the market as far as my knowledge goes.And,Allegri has already established at Milan.He shows willingness to learn and adapt,yet all you do is criticize.I fail to share your view on this.

Carlo took risks??

Also can't believe some of you are actually comparing Max with Leo. seriously, it's one thing to dislike him/his approaches, it's another to plain insult him.

Carlo did what worked. Defend well and use your chances.


When did you start watching Milan? 2007? During the 2002-2006 period we used to dictate the game, keep possession and play with a very offensive line-up. We were one of the most spectacular clubs in Europe. Then, of course, Calciopoli, Sheva's departure and our players aging hit us bad. But we still managed to win another CL nevertheless.

I understand what you're saying. But we're just shooting the breeze here. He is very slow to adapt and often displays a very un-Milan like attitude.

You have to understand we've been used to a technical Milan for well over 10 years now, and suddenly seeing a strong-arm outfit is bound to give rise to criticism.

We're not Chelsea who haven't won forever so winning at all costs (as they did under Jose) justfies how you play the game.

2004.

We weren't all that offensive, we just had more speed in the midfield and in the fullbacks deptartment that made us seem like a fast attacking team. We still played defensive football.

Uh... No we did not!

We were, beside Ronaldinho's Barca, the most exciting team in Europe at the time.

Yes we were defensively solid, but we played with 3 pure #10s, 2 strikers and offensive FBs. We had a solid defensive foundation made up of Nesta, Maldini, Stam, etc. But we were a very offensive team

And yet Max will probably win more Scudetti for Milan in his first 2 seasons than Carlo did in his entire stay.

Yeah but look at the strength of the league during Carlo's stay as well. Juve, Inter, Roma, Lazio as well. They were all great teams. Now Juve are still getting back on their feet, Inter have been terrible since Mou left, Roma are going through their own phase as well.

Of course you can argue that Carlo had the much stronger team in his hands.

I just don't think it's as simple as saying Allegri won x amount of Scudetti to Carlo's 1. Carlo made us the number 1 team in Europe during his stay

Interesting to note is that a win this weekend also gives Max a higher win % in Milan than Carlo had. biggrin.gif

A McManaman dive and Kaka' made us champions of Europe as much as Carlo. And now I don't see any but 2, maybe 3 teams being Champions of Europe. wink.gif

Indeed.... also LOL @ people comapring class (Carletto Ancelotti) to "class without the 'cl' ($h!tlegri)"
Carlo DISMANTLED Real, Barca, Manure (twice without $heva), Liverpoo, Ajax AND Bayern. sure we only won the highly corupted league once but Carlo survived the departure of a golden ball player and points deduction with an aging team to win a Champions League. Allegri who?

..while Ancelotti for sure has won more CL trophies then Allegri in three lifetimes.

It's one thing to criticize Ancelotti - no one is beyond criticism. But diminishing his role and trying to look Allegri better then Ancelotti is really not necessary.

They're a possession team who wait for the right moments to attack.

They're not like Man U for Example where its constant speedy attacks.

But they're certainly not a defensive team if that is what you are implying
