giancarlo u should trust our squad more. not just whishing our talented player like pato,etc scoreless.
somtimes ur way to talk just so disappointing
we have 1-0 ageist barca and you still argue
lol being a hypo*crite i see again giancarlo, talking about pato is cl because he havent scored from 2009 and all but hey he scored against barca ;) eat that
Pato Pato Pato Love it. Third CL is the charm.
being a hypocrite again i see
how am I a hypocrite? I stated my opinion. You shouldn’t trash talk anyone.
haha you tellin someone else to not trashtalk ha get outta here
you get the F out. Seriously who are you? you show up out nowhere… you never comment anywhere else.
because i have my life to deal with.. like a job and a girlfriend and partying and things like that.. im not able to comment on every page.. .but i love milan and have faith in them even seedorf (who i talk shit about all the time but im proud of him for proving me wrong time and time again lol ) you arnt half the man you think you are
all you do is trash talk to. You jump on people for trash talking but your doing exactly that now
sigh……all of u immature brats
Seedorf is playing very well, our team is under pressure but coping well!
It will be a LONG game. Either way I’m proud of the effort.
and pato showed creativity and speed and great passsing.. seems liek everyone except giancarlo was right… again
boateng wasted that shot
everyone is doing real well :)
Nocerino looking a bit shaky but lets see how he does
Giancarlo and PIB Shut the hell up.
Giancarlo and PIB Shut the frack up. Forza Milan.
The first goal was for Ibra
Why did MVB get the yellow?
gian u should suport milan please hehehe
I don’t support Milan? I support Milan. I just don’t support the behavior of some people on this site.
No one supports your behavior.
You hate everyone and are seem never to be satisfied with the team or the management.
Says who? I was happy with Aquilani and Nocerino…
I’m the one that’s not satisfied? Come on man. Apparently you never met Rossonero23.
why didnt we keep Pirlo and kept Seedorf??
There’s ur answer….look at how his physical presence is damaging Barca :) Pirlo wouldnt be able to do that
We dont need Ibra..
Yes, we didn’t need him last season huh? With his 15 goals, and 14-15 as*sists… yeah huh?
this i have to agree with you with gian lol look at this we agree.. jesus is comign lmao
That is one of the du*best things you have said so far
We needed Ibra more than we ever needed Pato. Stop being a d()ck
pato and abbiati the men of the first half already for me
i think i remember seedorf kicking golaiths head around after david cut it off lol
That didn’t last long now did it? It was a lucky lead… too bad.
messi did what pato did used his speed and touch to get around our defence… u had to expect barca would get a goal but iniesta isnt on his usual and appartnly hurt or sick or something…. if fabergas comes in they wont have as much speed and abrosini can handle fabergas .. nesta just needs to find his youthfulness lol
blah blah blah… smart answers for everything.
If you think Ambro can handle Fabregas for the rest of the game then you are on some sort of mind altering substances
Just that fast, Barca wait until we make a mistake. Oh well they aren’t perfect they will make another mistake
we do miss someone like kaka, seriously. we always had a player who could change the game by amazing runs and passes, now we miss it… we need a true trequartista…
Come on milan!
And for some reason Boateng was subbed off for Ambrosini…
Yeah W T F is up with that?
apparently, he’s injured
we miss a true trequartista… seriously ;). last time we had a really top player it was when Riccy was here, now we got no player who can change games. ( I b r a doesn’t count, he’s kind of different.
Abate error
It was Zambrotta’s error. He was not marking Pedro instead he just stood their and ball watch. Nocerino is not helping Abate out like he should!
Abate made 1 error against MESSI in 45 minutes.
That’s a pretty respectable tally.
Go and support Barcelona then. You are a disgrace to Milan..
You’re the disgrace. you’ve trash talked Ibra many times.
Not only Ibra, also Robinho, Nocerino, Aquilani, Abbiti, Allegri, Galliani, Berlusconi, Mexes, anyone older than 30 on our team as well, Flamini and Prince to, so pretty much a huge majority of the squad and management
F*CK off PIB STOP insulting Milan….u r the biggest disgrace here
This isn’t good
did urby start?
lmao umm where is the link between defence n attack? o,o why allegri didnt put on aquilani for boateng?
I think Aquilani will come on for Seedorf. It’s the logic I’m getting with that substitution.
I think Aquilani will come on for Seedorf. It’s the logic I’m getting with that subst*itution.
yeah logic… you actually use that? wow
Wow the ma*ssive mo*ron with no education responds again.
And yours is Ambro can handle Fabresgas, right
yeah but i could be wrong.. and im not afraid to admit it lol .. im hoping he can keep fabregass at bay.. if not so be it
I believe he will, since there is no link between defense and pato ;ooo
lol, what’s this? possession barca 80-20 milan. can’t we @ least make it 30 or smth?
They’ve only scored once so far with 80% of the ball. They had possession for 37 minutes and didn’t do too well.
C.a.s.s.a.no the s.h.i.t completely
Here he is trash talking another player…
haha here you are talkin about trash talkin.. your no better than he is… pointing out the obvious
grow the F up. who are you? you never post here… you just show up out of the blue. f OFF.
Yet you continue to troll around here
haha so your saying since i have a life outside of my computer i dont belong.. yeah great… im a huge milan fan and i check this site frequently to see the news.. not to comment but on gamedays i am always on… gut out of gian carlos butt and whip that brown stuff off your nose
Cavey, you’re a mas*sive id*iot though. And I highly doubt you have a life outside your computer. You’re just a fan… that'[s the problem. I’m an actual supporter. You’re completely and totally immature.
yeah im sorry i cant go to every milan game.. since i have bills to pay and a job to be at (boss lets me take off game days) and a girl to keep happy but i bet i have more jerseys more tickets to actual games and probly have put more time and effort into supporting than you have… quit talkin smack and learn something
Why don’t you learn something? You’re not an actual supporter. And jerseys, tickets to actual games, blah blah blah… you’ve never been to a game so quit lying.
o really so your telling me on my 18th birthday i wasnt ther for the milan bologna match… of 08 yeah cant tell me that.. 2 games my entire life thanks to my girl and my best friend which i doubt yout either… so
yeah you’re just a liar. 2 games your entire life? I doubt it. You probably have been to an MLS match though. grow up.
how about you look at my facebook and then tell me im lying.. and them comeback and share what you see.. its in the album of me, my girl and my fantasy wedding place..
LMAO the little kid has a facebook… wow I’m soooo impressed. and he has a girlfriend… i wonder how long that’ll last.
and yes i go to mls game actually quite alot of them chicago fire is my mls team until atlanta joins mls
a st*upid mls fan… go figure.
little kid no im 21. did 4 years of UGA in 3… tooke summer semester and everything… you really wanna call me out check out my facebook and prove me right yet again… or are you to chicken to do tht… probly are
grow up gian and mls is oright here in USA which is alot cheaper to go to the flying to italy stayin with a friend… again sorry im not rich enough to go to every milan game lol
Add Fantonio to who hes trashed to
pretty much everyone cept Kaka (who’s not HERE) and Pato
Ambrosini shouldnt have played.
Giab wanted Pato to be no bench. He said Ca.s.s.an.o should play.. Now tell me what hae he done in this half? Only Pato was going forward bravely.. Other are playing s,h.i.t except our defenders and Pato.
What on earth are you talking about? Pato played well for like 5 minutes… this is Barcelona we are talking about. In their stadium.
You’re beyond clueless. I don’t think even think you are watching this game.
Add in the whole midfield who are playing to the list hes bashed.
Antonio should be subbed, he’s out of sync with the rest of the team, although Seedorf should have been there for his back heel. I think Urby playing behind Pato and providing runs would open up some space. Let’s see what Allegri does.
People for once let’s put aside our differences,and support our team.For now i think everyone has done pretty well no one should condemn any player.Giancarlo,PIB,Ryan and anyone please stop fighting.
pete i agree but not completly just my opinion here… i like emanuelson for seedorf alittle more to add more wing play but again just my opinion lol
Seedooooooooooooooof
I can’t wait to see the possession statistic. I bet it’s 90 Barca 10 Milan. We need to play some possession as well.
Seedoooooooooooooooooooooof
Why did boateng get subbed out, he was doing so well. Did he picked up an injury? I wish we had someone else besides ambrosini, he is to slow and already made a mistake
He injured himself just like Iniesta
Seedooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooof
Cease fire for now,but after the match we fight.
Seedoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooof
OMG! Zambrotta was just ball watching instead of marking Pedro! REALLY! Thats SOME BS school boy defending from Zambrotta.
As a LF myself I know better than to stand and watch when the opponent is on the move on the right!
This Milan team is just not strong enough especially with Ibra!
*I meant especially WITHOUT Ibra! We need Ibra badly to hold up the ball and bring other players into the game!
63% baraca milan 37%
69%-31% min 74
Seedoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooof
That’s not near as bad as I though. I thought it would be at least 75 25
I think Aquilani behind Pato and Cassano and Urby sub for Seedorf would have been a good decision, but it’s too late for that now.
hope barca are sleeping again
seedooooooooooooooooooooooooooorf???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
