i knew pato wouldnt start!
ugh,… im so sad
wow…dat was unexpected. False 9 again. I think m luving dis. N d zapata-yepes pairing, colombian connection, nice way to wlcm him. Lets go boys.
can someone please xplain the false 9? cant seem to understand
thanks
The role what Totti and Messi play.
It’s playing kind of with 9 defenders like chelsea vs barca in cl last season
Am not 100%sure though
A false number 9 means playing without a real striker! It has nothing to do with defenders! sigh!!!
Bt why milan put our good players on starting role? This is gamble, alegri u should remember that last year we lose flamini at this game, so in my view mantolivo should be rested.
allegri, wants to win, so we dont buy n e players, they will say we r complete. Lol. Wat a joke
Wen is the match going too commence?
@yareens80
its basically a striker that plays on his own upfront and is not really a striker is either a attacking mid or second striker playing as a striker
for example messi for barcelona and fabregas for spain
ok thanks guys
false 9, no real striker, players just drop in to attack. Switch players in and out of the striker position
Spalleti invented it.With right player it’s really deadly formation.
Hahah. So we expect Yeppes, a 36 year old defender to Stop Giovinco, one of the smallest and quickest players around?
This should have been our formation
Amelia
Abate-Bonera-Zapata-Antonini
Nocerino-Montolivo-Constant
Boateng
Pato-Robinho
robinho!!!!! please keep ur form old robinho would of missed that!
forza milan
goal bihno
whos scored for juve the stream was gone for about 1 min and poof they have an equalizer
so wats da score now 1.1, scorers plz.
How many minutes hav been played guys. Pls update us on d happenies
1 -1 bihno and machinsio
We are hilarious our defense(exepct Zapata) is awful
VIdal
Juve are ahead as expected 2-1 “40mins
Pray pray pray
need pato, need mexes, need noercino simple
we have to buy fresh players,hope we lose.
antonini mistake and flamini big mistake.
dont play flamini.
and plz play boateng in midfield not attacking midfield.
Zapata is great and fast as well
zapata is good but he stands to far up the field which is why vidal scored but i still think hes good because this is preseason and he not in full form yet
No that is not why vidal scored, you can’t be serious…vidal scored because Antonini failed with the offside trap.
We need Santon omg guy is from another planet for all our fullbacks . Antonini was responsible for second goal
he right footed which is the first problem and the second is that he played really bad yesterday looked really slow and slugesh
Even Maicon was looking funny against Totenham and Santon didn’t play that bad yesterday.
PS: I watched couple of Santon PL games today he is fast,strong,calm and he’s pa.ssing is great.
Zapata will surelly be a starter in the new season, the big problem is who will partner him ? Yanga-Mbiwa would’ve been the best !
We need a new center back and left back as air right now !!!
Zapata is doing great, I’m very impressed by him, I hope he keeps it up. The only thing dragging him down is that he has lapses of concentration, but if he stays fully focused he’ll be a great asset. i hope for him and Acerbi, and next season Yanga-Mbiwa, if he won’t arrive now. I don’t know if my standards have dropped but I think Constant is doing a great job in midfield. Robinho is very lively and is enjoying his football, we just need another striker partnering him. Pato with Robinho would be a great partnership, but of course… Read more »
I want us to lose right in presence of Belusconi. He needs a proper slap in his face by losing massively tonite. His reaction to Machisio’s equalizer was animated and that is just d begining, he would be forced to go back to d market just watch
We nid to start introducin de sciglio as a left back just what bayern did wit alaba and also we should partner either zapata with acerbi/bonera/mexes and not yepes.mayb allegri just want zapata to feel at home by partnering hm wit yepes.I’m very sure dat in d long run milan wil become great again and even surpass madrid in UCL.
i rather we hav the siena defence then this milan 1, is disgraceful… Antonini, yepes, bonera Mesbah out…plz man…
milan kips playing , yube kips scoring, jas like last season. Its annoying.
And we gave Matri to Caligari
we need good lb mesbah out yepes out antonini out flamini what you are playing is not football.but kunfu.pls buy replacement 4 this guys
its like milan is playing with 2 defenders, abate, zapata, flamini is helping juve out. Man dis team sukksss, im a go throw up nowww,
i just heard that abate may have sprained his ankle. the bad news starts…
milan wont win anything with this kind of
players,not even
a toy cup,wake up galliani and belusconi u are making milan a useless
club.teams dont even fear milan anymore..sell the club if u cant manage it,PERIOD.
waz happening 2 milan..injury again..y nt start wit pato
buhahahahahahh we are getting rapped by Juve second string team
3 – 1 Matri. “64mins.

ACMilan – Juventus 3-1 goal scored by Matri”
Lichtensteiner is example of modern fullback
Robinho (pen)… Milan 2 Juve 3. “77mins
Robinho Scores from the Penalty !!! Milan 2 – 3 Juventus !”
This team it’s to painfull
Watching this game there seems to be average/wrong positioning of players i.e. Kpb(Not a CAM and can be average at times!), Abate(Average a times), Flamini(Average at best), all LB(Average at best!!), CB(short of at least one of them). Our possesion play can be a lot better!
Arsenal close to annoucing Sahin e M’Villa.
i can’t watch the game – not showing, but from what I’m hearing/reading, constant and zapata are doing well, while boateng has been playing bad (just like the whole of the preseason. warning sign, probably)
Vry funy is gud we lose 2 kno who fits in 2 d first eleven, but pls mr g&b brg in players pls.
