AC Milan general spiel 2.0

[The MAN]

Meh, I wouldnt read too much into it, not yet at least...I'm not writing off this team for sure, though I would've loved for Milan to start the season with 3-4 wins on the trot, usually when Milan does that its a good omen for lo scudetto, but none of our main rivals picked up full points after 2 games, in fact only Inter are ahead of us by 1 point

On a side note, I'm loving those the rossonero jersey this year, maybe these are the best since the 04/05 ones... now that I think our management deserves that tiny bit of revenue we average fans can provide, I'm considering buying that, or our 3rd jersey maybe...i also think the "Fly Emirates" is much classier than the Bwin crap

CESENA-MILAN 2-0 — L’episodio più discusso al 7’ del secondo tempo. Pato controlla e segna, il guardalinee va verso il centro del campo, ma l’arbitro annulla il gol. Nell’aggiustarsi il pallone, il brasiliano si era aiutato con un braccio. Giusto il rigore per i rossoneri poi sprecato da Ibrahimovic: Inzaghi era stato trattenuto in area da Nagatomo. Terna un po’ distratta sui fuorigioco: un paio di volte (Pato e Ibrahimovic) il Milan è stato penalizzato. La partita è stata corretta e c’è stato un solo ammonito in tutti i 90’: Ambrosini, per un’entrata a gamba tesa su Ceccatelli. (di Mauro Balestrazzi)

[The MAN]

It was garbage refereeing and Milan were penalized on a couple of occasions that would have no doubt affected the outcome of the game....I think apart from a few comments here and there, Milan has taken the high road and overlooked it, however, I doubt this will be the case if this recurs again

[The MAN]

Still...in my opinion, ok given its a bit biased of course, game would've been completely different if that first Pato goal counted. Not using this as an excuse, but it is fact, it should have stood.

[vtec]

i don't know. i have no complaints about the refereeing. pato may have been ever so slightly offside, so the call was correct. also, ibrahimovic should only be allowed to take penos in games we are winning or losing by more than four goals. he will choke otherwise.

That photo does make one feel physically ill.

[vtec]

[vtec]

thiago silva is out today, but nesta is in.

[vtec]

nesta is the best in the world when healthy, but i think you may be overrating thiago. inter have some pretty good cbs in samuel, chivu and lucio

[RomaShield27]

Juan, Mexes, Burdisso... hard to get any better than that.

[The MAN]

Yep, Thiago is very good but not at Nesta's level. Our defence with Nesta minus Silva is clearly better with Silva minus Nesta..this has been shown many games last season and even this weekend.

I guess it will be Bonera tonite

[San Paolo]

Thiago is first choice for Brazil now he and Sandro work so well together with their contrasting styles

[San Paolo]

Milan 4-3-3: Abbiati, Zambro, Bonera, Nesta, Antonini, Ambro, Pirlo, Seedorf, Pato, Ibra, Ronaldinho
Subs:Amelia, Abate, Yepes, Gattuso, Boateng, Robinho, Inzaghi
