If he scores two more you don't really have a choice.

Ringrazie Mirko!

I thought we came out of the first half not too badly and might even have had a second goal if more had been made of a couple of opportunities...but oh the second half! I'll leave you guys to explain the technicalities except to say on Milan's first goal I couldn't make up my mind whether our back line was just all over the place or whether they tried and failed miserably to play an offside trap. On Pato's second goal, you can't allow the duck that amount of time on the ball or he'll gratefully do what he did all night!

Obviously we can't expect the kind of performances of 18 months ago under present circs but really, home games should be won, irrespective of opposition, that's to say if the team in question is to be taken seriously.

Where are we at the moment if we are grateful to just not have been beaten at the Olimpico? However, we weren't, thank goodness, and it was largely thanks to Vučinić...

I can't believe Mexes got skimmed so good by Pato on at least 3 occassions, especially in the 2nd goal where Mexes got passed by so easily (too much pizza, cheeseburgers, and beer over the break eh?). Thus, because of that, Milan's scoreline.

Other than that, I too think that Milan looked very poor, and that we should have taken advantage of it with a win, not a draw.

Was I right, but I also thought Mr. hollywood didn't do jack shit today, except for a shot on goal that Gifts pawed away or something?

Too bad Little Pizza was brought in rather late, but I thought that the man looked brave and creative in the middle of the field. I think he only messed up with one bad pass, but other than that, I'm happy he is back to the swing of things.

La Bestia disappointed me again. Damm, he had more than a few opportunities to score and pass bettter than he did, but dammit, he blew those chances. He is a physical presence out there, but he needs to raise his game as St. Totti is missing. Dammit!

How much more of a leash can you give Baptista...I would have certainly preferred Okaka had he been healthy.

For the 93993th time, Taddei cannot start the match. Pizarro and Aqui. should have been in from the start, not from 80mins.

Pato and DDR men of the match.

Riise was great as well. Really starting to like him.
