Surely nothing spectacular yesterday... but finally I 'enjoyed' watching a match.

P.S. not that it was any great spectacle or anything, but we didn't play a boring Mazzarri kind of game, and that is more than enough for now.

I guess it will take your magician a little longer to weave his magic.

Indeed. The surest sign of just how utterly terrible Mazzarri was is that even Minchio hasn't been able to turn things around completely inside 10 days.

[Italiamia]

Hey, Lomba: take that laziale terminology and shove up your Maltese ass. I would think you can comport yourself in a manner far and above the garden variety lazzie 'fan'.

San Siro to improve fan proximity

Restructuring work on the Giuseppe Meazza Stadium, San Siro, will bring seating closer to the players and come at a cost of €8.7m.

Plans for San Siro's renovation were originally proposed in August as part of Milan and Inter's successful bid to host the 2016 Champions League Final.

The Gazzetta dello Sport today report that these proposals have had the go-ahead from the Milan municipality and will see an investment of €8.7m to restructure the internal facilities of the stadium.

The main features introduced include a shortening of the gap between the seating and the pitch, with current barriers torn down, and an integration of the players' benches with the spectator standings.

The new seating would rise alongside with the team benches, allowing for a proximity between players and supporters previously unprecedented at San Siro and that is comparable to the set-up at Juventus Stadium.

The renovation plan also includes four new sky lounges, a new museum, and the refurbishment of the restrooms. The new San Siro will be completed before the end of 2015.

This move is likely to be the last joint investment by Milan and Inter, as the Rossoneri will be working towards a property stadium from 2016.

I know I know, pie in the sky stuff, but could we ever purchase the San Siro outright rather than build a new stadium?

[maro]

Wow. You guys seriously suck. I was almost feeling sorry for Manquini there at the end.

Finally a win in serie a, let's finish the year with another win against Lazio Mancio!

[kros]

Despite everything the 3rd place is just 6 points away ... seeing how poorly the teams above us are performing, I don't think a 3rd place finish is impossible.

After approximately 1 month with the new coach, I must say, that even though the results still suck, we have improved the way in which we play. At least now there is a hint of team play. Yesterday there were moments when possession was pretty good. Against Udinese, I really liked the first half. This means there are signs of recovery
