I'd go to sleep. Wake up, check result and if game was worth seeing, if yes: watch a replay or download it

that would be ideal except i hate watching replays. i think i will give them 25 mins to entertain me but if its as bad as i think it will be then i will hit the sack.
QUOTE (han2503 @ Aug 26 2012, 11:12 PM)

I'd personally prefer Constant to start instead of Flamini. No use making it more painful than it already will be
if he starts then there's no excuse for him not to give it all his got and show his worth.

AC Milan has only lost one opening game these past 10 seasons..
It's quite clear that AC Milan doesn't want to keep Mexes though consedring his wages and being on the left out list.

Yepes to play instead Zapata and El Shaarawy instead of Pazzini.

El Shaarawy deserves a start in my opinion - one of the best in pre-season. Yepes always does well - no biggie.

Yepes is slow and mistake prone imo.
Agreed on El Shaa, but don't know if it will work that well with Robinho...

Abbiati; Sciglio De, Yepes, Bonera, Antonini, Montolivo, Flamini, Nocerino, Boateng, El Shaarawy, Robinho.

Reality sucks hard enough with out you rubbing salt in the wound. Please never again equate Bonera to Nesta. The scrub shouldn't be allowed in the same sentence. Damn near enough to make me want to off myself.

Not really impressed with Stephan pre-season, his finishing was poor if anything, and the attacking players that were one of the best are Robinho, Nocerino and Emanuelson. Boateng wasn't good. Pazzini wasn't there, so can't be compared.

Bonera is truly a mediocre player at best.
Boateng is looking horrible. I am beginning to wonder if he looked as good as he did for us due to opponents allowing him more space while worry about our other players. (Zlatan anyone?...)
It could just be my frustration talking, but the more I think about it, the less far-fetched it seems to me.
Couple questions:
Why the hell is Pato up in the stands away from the rest of the team?
...and two regarding signs that I saw in the crowd (not sure if anyone else spotted them):
One was something to do with Cassano, and the other was to do with August 31st.

Pato's injured, and I guess he likes to sit there, lol.
The sign about Cassano said "Ungrateful heart", whilst the other one said "Let's wait hopeful till 31 August".

I knew he was injured, just found it strange he was away from Abate etc. down below.

i get that, but in the final third he is USELESS, with Ibra and some creative mids we could create 8-9 chances for him to MAYBE convert 1, but if he's going to take shitty shots from everywhere with his trademark Mr. Magoo accuracy, we can surely do better.

Guys, being FFP compliant is more important than finishing in top 10. we'll spend 2 or 3 seasons in the lower half of the table, then everything is gonna be alright thanks to Silvio. he's brought us so much joy in the past 26 years, I'm sure there's more to come

Ha, the best part when we play like this and lose matches is reading the match threads.

In fact, I wouldn't say best, it's the only part - sarcastic and interesting comments make for a fun reading. Other than that, I agree with all of the posts above. Particularly Han's "not even fighting spirit to cover for the severe lack of quality" one.
The only consolation through all this mess is that if we end up outside the top 3 or top 5, it'll be well deserved. Well deserved and well earned - by all the duds that are wearing our shirts, and a few in the management that aren't.
