The Trip to Udine…

By: Gianfranco | Comments 19 Comments

Playing Udinese probably couldn’t come at a worse time. Sure our history against them is fairly good, and I fondly remember the drubbing we handed them at the end of last season almost a year to the day, when our CL hopes had long faded. I have a sneaking suspicion that they to [...]

Should He Stay or Should He Go?

By: Gianfranco | Comments 116 Comments

I am about to do the unthinkable, I am going to do my best to step up to the plate and defend Carletto. I know it won’t be easy, and I cant even sit here and tell you I agree with everything I am about to say, but I am going to throw some [...]

Just Not Good Enough…

By: Gianfranco | Comments 264 Comments

Where do I even start, this performance was as bas the weather in Genoa. I struggled mightily to try and find some tiny little bright spot in today’s performances, but frankly I can’t. Sure Abbiati’s save on the FK early on was very nice, but after that the proverbial shit hit the fan. [...]

The Beginning of the End…

By: Gianfranco | Comments 193 Comments

So due to the fact that I work during the day my only chance at following this game was through a gamecast today on Soccernet. It is not my favorite way to follow, but I have come to rely on it because it is fast, direct, and most of all discreet.

Milan vs. Werder Bremen

By: Gianfranco | Comments 227 Comments

With two healthy strikers, and the need for a shutout, this games means a whole lot more than we all want to admit. This game could be Carletto’s last if the result does not go in Milan’s favor…

Werder Bremen 1 – Pippo & Flamini 1

I did not have the pleasure of seeing the match due to my real job. But as always your comments throughout and following the match have helped shape my understanding of the game, and though I won’t be able to go in depth I do want to share some thoughts.

Milan 2 Wolfsburg 2

By: Gianfranco | Comments 55 Comments

In the skew of things today’s game was not all that important. A draw in the UEFA Cup when the club has already qualified is not that big of an issue when you look at it, but put this match into context and the picture is no longer so rosy.

Better Late Than Never

By: Gianfranco | Comments 100 Comments

Struggled with this post for quite a few days partly because I couldn’t find the words and partly because I was having some technical difficulties with my new laptop, regardless both problems are gone and I want to recap what was one of the single hardest games to watch as a Milan fan for more [...]

Friday Milan Musings

By: Gianfranco | Comments 36 Comments

Lot of interesting comments regarding yesterday’s UEFA Cup fixture. Some positives, some negatives, and a fair amount of banter as well. We were also graced with the presence of some Inter fans, smarting after their superb CL performance I believe, as well as some Pompey fans. I was not able to watch [...]
