yan bah

Easy win plz guys no complain about the x1 forza Milan

C

Yeah right… just shows what u know about football and Milan do you know that Milan has won only five games out of 13 games under the past 2.5 season’s against newly promoted teams in serie a and only 1 out of those wins have they won on away turf easy win indeed my friend

dope

yeahhhh

pelle80

Goodluck! If monty plays bad please dnt hesitate to bring in mauri. #3points#

Pa ibra

Lol how about if bacca or another player plays bad should they hesitate to replace them? oh lets keep an eye on monty,only monty..any mistake, slaughter him

m.a.usa

It hurts whenever I open the news and read: it’s official, Ancelotti will go to FC Bayern when Guardiola leaves at the end of the season.
Come back Ancelotti :(

If only Milan could get a world class coach.. We wouldn’t be in this mess

Pa ibra

honda and monty forzaa!

dejan10

Is Miha seriously saying Abate’s better than Calabria? Yet another cock up in defence….

Sanoske

Abate scored.. Suck it.

ACMilanSince 69

Defenders should also defend.

dope

he scored and suddenly he is good again

1 good game doesnt make him any better he was one of the worst in past 5 games excluding this one

Misund

Yeah he is better overall at this moment. But Calabria could turn out to be wordclass one day.

And i agree, abate have very bad footballing skills going forward. he got workrate and speed, thats it.

Sanoske

He scored an important goal. Be happy, if you can’t deal with it.

C

I told you guys 1-0 frosinone now

Pouriya

Ancelotti said: ” I want to rest for one year!” I think it was just an excuse for rejecting Milan request.

dope

and he will rest

he takes bayern next season

GB

Being fan of Milan is such torture, why i am doing it to myself…..Romagnoli made his first major mistake, pretty bad timing, it coud finish Miha´s job. Oh well maybe he is self to blame if he dont play Kucka who was amongs best players in last three matches he played. It backfired to replace him with De Jong last week and today again our midfield lack energy without him and still creatively suck as always.

RKaY

Kucka is suspended….pay attention

rossonerisiamonoi

Honda is a substitute for a reason..

kim

Miha,really don’t have any tactics,niang will score in a match fans start to hail when he has done nothing,milan really neeed constitency to get back to winning ways?

misund

Lol? How many games have niang played? And how many assist/goals do he have?

Give the guy some credit. I believe he will turn out good for Milan. If he is used as a striker.

Cryptic

Im so happy Milan have a strong minded coach. Hearing him speak is so much better than milan winning. Who needs wins when we have great press conferences. Puppets suck what we need is controversial statements. Inter have champions league and even maybe the scudetto. We have a coach who speaks whats on his mind. Why improve the team when you can throw the players under the bus! YAY Milan

nick

Why is this Milan coach keep changing the starting 11 for players who are not playing well?

De Jong last week and now Honda for Kucka who is playing better than both players.

Seedorf wanted to get rid of half the squad and I totally agree.

I would get rid of these players this summer Montolivo, De Jong, Honda, Bertolacci, Abate, Mexes, Zapata, Noccerino, Suso, Poli and Cerci.

That’s nearly half the team. Oh and also get rid of Galliani. How could I forget him.

misund

U gonna judge berto from two matches?
He has the potential. So why trow him out??
You lack vision bro. Berto is not the biggest improvement but he has the chance to develop into something we need..
We paid 20 mill for him and he won’t leave so you might aswell support him .

nick

We wasted 20mil for him is more like it. If Bertolacci cost 20mil then Bonnaventura is worth 3 times that amount.

Misund

Lets wait and see how berto turns out at the same age.

Real Shevchenko

I wonder how you judge player’s usefulness? Is there any criteria besides amateurish “eyeballing”?

dope

kucka had suspension

Edd

I dont care about what you do or if you dribble or do any crap as midfield, all those midfielders inckuding bonashit, I need the result which is are you assisting strikers at the end of your crap! Or when its time to pass you ruin it! Last 2 minutes of 1st half he got the ball inside the box and instead of shooting on target he wanna pass and when its time to pass he do the opposit. And last minute free kick you take your f**** time to kick it because its your last ball and you not… Read more »

Fachrul

Just exit being a support of Milan.. All you can do is only complaining…

Edd

I dont need to exit when I speak the truth about these midfielders, I blame who brought them to the club bcz he know nothing about football, and I mean galiani. I’ ve been milan fan for 27 years and maybe before you were born. And I played football as well and I know when you have bad midfielders with no creativity means you have no heart and no brain, means you have no team.

black milanista

Such a bold claim and I don’t believe it you sound like a Milan fan for less than 5yrs. From the looks of it you sound like a guy who’s probably in his early 20s. Any milan fan who supported milan for at least over 15yrs knows what hardship milan went through over the yrs and they wouldn’t speak like that.

Fachrul

If you want to see the truth than just see the facts.. Come on, they have the spirit last night. Its been improving in a while.. last night looking at the facts, our midfield made 3/4 goals (Honda, Bona, Poli). This is what we have and we should appreciate their spirit.. Even in the draw against Hellas Verona, its the red card that made everything hard for us.. You cant press team with outnumbered players on the field.. But the team did it.. Just unlucky for getting only 1 point. I have believe that this Milan is improving, Miha know… Read more »

Arafat

Zero creativity in mid, we playing such a simple football which has no creativity… If we look carefully on the game, we just playing too much on wings as if no hope on midfield and I think we have a good attacks but attacks need midfield magical creativity assistance. Montilivo is not a either defensive midfielder or creative midfielder nor he is a attacking midfielder.

Pouriya

Finally he scored!

Manwal

Fu************ yes. 2-1 milan are winning. Finallyyyyy

carmichael

@nick! kucka is suspended.

nick

Thanks, didn’t know. Still wouldn’t play Honda though. He’s a nice guy but he sucks.

peter

Forza milan

Manwal

3-1 for milan!!!

ma.usa

Well. That escalated quickly!

Manwal

. Bonaventura was man of the match for his goal and an assist.

Axelynx22

Good win, we dominated 70% of ball possession and mentality to keep attacking instead of having a lead is a prove that this team heading to the right direction. 2goals conceded aside, romagnoli probably having his worst match of the season so far, he looked shaky, but again he is young and can still improve a lot, hopefully he bounces back quick! Credits goes to Honda, he deserved starting spot instead of cerci, by miles. His contribution in this game is worthy of applause. Yes he did make some mistakes, but considering is been a while he starts a game,… Read more »

Fachrul

Well.. its a good win.. Defence need to be an attention, but 2nd half performance is way much better.
I cant believe as a support we keep on whinning no matter what happens.

Just given a prove, Abate scored a goal, Honda made 2 assists, Poli had made an assist as well..

We are unlucky with the previous performances. The current problem is with consistency and I believe we can achieve that beyond the winter break

ma.usa

Honda 2 assists? I thought Niang took that corner

Fachrul

Yes my bad.. it was Niang who made the assist from the corner
Anyway Honda is improving. linked with Abate worked well.. Hope the consistency is there

pippo

Don’t fool ourself, this was bad. First half awful, second much better, but all in all we arent a team that deserves CL spot. Sorry, but currently Inter, Fio, Juve and Napoli are showing by miles stronger,better and more confident preformances then we do.

RKaY

Oh my god just stop, we’ll find out if we deserve it by the end of the season or not. Juve almost tied Carpi if The striker didn’t mishit a sitter. Yet they aren’t hearing s**t, they are still so strong. We completely dominate frosinone the second half and honestly even after the goal in the first half and 4-2 isn’t good enough because we are Milan. Get over yourself, you and all the other fans who think like that. Some of you are too dense to acknowledge how much more of a team we are and how much more… Read more »

pippo

Napoli changed their coach too, Fio also, plus couple of players. Just like we did. Why dont they need time to ” develop chemistry and adjust tactics to fit the players”??? Juve had their problems with new players similar to ours. but they overcome them 7 games ago…Why didnt we?? Im not saying this based on this game. We showed bad performances against some really mediocre teams. What about our games against genoa, carpi, verona, and napoli, fiorentina? Second half against Udinese? Whole game against Empoli even though we won? Even against Torino, Sassuolo and so on? Man you are… Read more »

veer khase

don’t be too pessimistic about milan. First half was not that bad. Yeah, the goal was conceded due to failure of the offside trap but we dominated from that moment. We had 78% possession in the 1st half & 9 shots on goal( though we were not clinical). We would have scored 5 goals but honda wasted a clear opportunity. Beside, honda looked like true class today, full of determination & character.Bonna was brilliant as usual. Agree or not, Montolivo was our pillar in midfield. He achieved a pass accuracy of 88% !!!!! We tried short & precise passes which… Read more »

dope

we are so incosistent
we have to learn to play in both first half and second half from game to game not like this
first half was terrible in second we exploded
also we need to take our chances

shams

finally honda had a pretty good game

2pacalypse

I didn’t watch the match… Did Honda played well? I always feel sorry for that guy…all we have to know is that whenever a top class players comes to Milan, he’s surely gonna turn to be an average player.. I don’t know why actually… We need a coach who can motivate is players and turn nothing to something… Forza Milano

ma.usa

Bonaventura back to being the league’s top assist!

rossonerisiamonoi

Loved Milan and the constant attacking game ! Good job to the players , Honda is ok substitute but for me that’s it . Good hustle out there for Niang , good energy . Too bad for the two conceded goals but victory finally , 5 point out of 9 is still a bit bad tough

Rosso138

Milans top 3 problems:
1. No creativity
2. No creativity
3. No creativity

Anyhow, great comeback, its great to end a year with a win… Now Galliani pleaaaase buy us great midfielder in january..

Forza Milan

Galliani heard you….and he bought Boateng….Now Galliani will boast in front of media about his transfer skills….Our main f…ing problem is Galliani…..No idea why Berlusconi is not able to see that

Rosso138

“Yaaay”
*sarcastic*

jethrO

Comment:milan till dEath do us part

Cryptic

Can someone tell me the El sharraawy situation I dont think he will stay they played him to his contract max before they are obliged to buy. If he comes back and is somewhat consistent we dont really need a RW in a 433. Since it would be sharaawy-bacca -niang plus it allows Bona to bridge since he can play LM
Berto- Mont- Bona

Sergio123

He’s no good an overrated…… Milan should sell him

black milanista

El sharaawy overrated?!!! You must be mad, he hasn’t been managed problem hence he hasn’t been consistent. The yr when allergi deployed him as a second striker he managed 17goals at the tender age of 20… before the winter break, and ur saying he’s overrated.

My God I swear most of you guys know nothing about football, and just like to talk verbal diarrhea.

Rosso138

Well, im SES fan but that was when Ibra was in the team.. Even Nocerino played well with him in the team..

black milanista

Ugh!! Ibra left that season that’s how el sharaawy scored 17 goals before the winter break, if I’m not mistaken it’s that same winter break we signed Balo from city. We finished 3rd that season, Balo scored the most of the goals in the second half of the season. Coming to thing about it el sharaawy was the main striker, I’m correcting myself.

Misund

He is one game from a permenant deal. It seems Monaco manager dont like him, so if we are lucky he will return.

Cryptic

They’ve kept him on the bench for a while so I don’t think he will get that game. He has very poor stats at monaco

Rosso138

He will probably get another chance in winter friendlies (it doesnt count), if he fails he will probably be sent back…

sergio123

Jack is the second best midfielder in the league …an ses would play where he is playing now…soo nop no way i want him back maybe just if jack got injured…he is just overrated an you guys dont want to admit it

Appenteng

Alonso will be a good purchase

Pa ibra

Considering could’ve done better in most of the games we didn’t win, I think the team has some potential left. didn’t manage a single “lucky win” which is quite the opposite for some of the title favorites like inter and also giving away extra 3points to all of our direct rivals, it can’t get any worst in the sec half of the season on these aspects. a top mid signing is needed thou.
