@mele: let’s hope not. This derby will be a crazy match that’s all I can say.
@samuel: Don’t worry I am just as annoyed – I suppose it’s times like these that you hope luck can bring you over the line – if we win this then we will be on track still for the Scudetto. We just have to jump over this impossibly-high hurdle.

Capunk, to support this team, you have to be a cynic. You want to tell me what good came out of losing Kaka’ and drawing to Reggina confidence wise?
Then again, hell, we lost our opening two matches before facing them the first time, so maybe this is a good omen.
I have no idea how this team works anymore.Posted from

LOOK:
we gotta get this guy in the right spot….
HE IS A GREAT PLAYER.
Carlo needs to find him the right spot to play in…
and i WILL NOT accept a loss to Merda at this point in time!

I expect Seedorf will light his own ass on fire,and play a good game. Pato upfront,supported by Ronnie and Seedorf(2 non moving AM’s.How brilliant),and Ambro,Pirlo and Becks as the 3 man midfield. Its gonna suck. 3 hardly moving midielders. We’ll win,if Pato gets a hatrick(as long as we dont concede 4)

Capunck nobody said Milan sucked. dude i am a die hard Milan fan and im as hardcore as they get. we’ve been through these phases before but our current state of affairs are poor going into the derby, im just pointing that out there its not a crime. going out there Sunday with no Kaka, Gattusso is the equivalent of Inter sans Cambiasso, Ibra and Maicon. Im still hoping for a win but our chances will be slim. there’s no reason why a bottom side shouldnt be trashed at home! just annoys me. Thanks alessandro.

Without Kaka this team lacks an important component, he can win a game on his own when he’s up to it, and at most times he decides the outcome of these derbies. but at the end of the it all we still have tons of Quality and decisive players, Flamini, Beckham, Pirlo and Pato just to name some can completely anihilate Inter and win this comfortably if they play well. Having said this i hope Maldini owns Zlatan’s ass again Sunday; Forza Milan through the good and the bad.

with the attitude that some of you guys have, I’m glad as hell none of you are playing. A championship team does not lean on one player. On a championship squad, when one man goes down, the next guy comes and takes his place ably. Milan have the personnel to do that, it’s all just a matter of execution and being mentally prepared to do everything necessary to win the game.
Dinho was looking encouragingly more like his old self, moving with purpose and energy. He didn’t link up seamlessly with his teammates (especially Kaka), but his on the ball movement and passing still created good opportunities. By the time he was taken off, I got the feeling that a few more run-arounds like this one would see him back to his old, game-breaking self.
Times like this is what define a team. How can Milan bounce back from losing both Gattuso and Kaka – their two biggest talismen from a motivational standpoint? How do they respond to adversity? If you think that losing Kaka automatically means an Inter victory, then you obviously don’t believe that the Milan players have any heart or competitor’s desire beneath the “stylish”, “technical” football they play. I don’t know if that is an indictment of the types of fans Milan has, or of the players themselves, or both.

I mean seriously, how can you get upset with Milan getting (”only”) a point against Reggina if you don’t believe that Milan’s defense and/or offense is capable of manning up against a major opponent like Inter? Very few teams ever have the kind of season that Barca is having now or that Milan had during the Capello “invicible” stretch. Nowadays, a league winner will have disappointing results, perhaps even a string, and will also suffer injuries to key players. What defines them as champions is how they rebound, especially in must win situations.
If you don’t believe that Milan can beat its title rival to overcome an adverse situation, then you don’t truly believe that your team is capable of winning the Schudetto. If you don’t truly feel that your team can win it, then why are you on here posting your disappointment at the draw? I mean, if you don’t believe they can win it, why would it be a surprise that they draw?
I’m just saying, it makes your fandom look really fairweather when you don’t even give a team a chance to prove its mettle in a clutch match, and when you give up on a team with 15 games left in the season. Milan seems on the verge of a good run of form if they can avoid the complacency they seem to fall into whenever they get a couple of good results or make some kind of progress.

@ Hana.
What? To be a real fan you gotta be a cynic? A cynic or a negative-minded person? I don’t care who we have, or who our opponents have. We’re Milan! We are SUPPOSED to win every single match we play. Kaka is not the only player at Milan, so I expect us to put up a good fight and win against Inter.
We’re 3rd in the standings. If we’re shit, man, serie A is full of shits worse than us.
I don’t mind criticizing a player, but please, don’t inject blind hatred into the discussion. I’m amazed a lot of people can complaint about Seedorf missing the goal and blaming him for the draw. Dude, there are others who played a bad game yesterday. Far worse than Seedorf, who I thought played a decent game.
We played great yesterday. But, Reggina played a fantastic defensive game, and kudos to them.

Look, in order to be a champion, there is a process that must take place. Not just the physical preparation, but the mental preparation as well. As a group the players must learn how to respond to difficult situations. Not only that, players must have (and accept) a role within the squad. You must have a few guys willing and capable of being a gamebreaker – a player who can put his head down and beat a couple of guys, or make the thru passes, etc. You have to have players buy into a team mentality, and most importantly, buy into the coach’s philosophy.
Milan is missing several key elements – particularly team chemistry and the players buying into Carlo’s philosophy – which is part of the reason why they’ve always seemed to stutter after a good string of results. I think it also shows that the team is too satisfied too quickly, and don’t approach each match with something new to improve upon – on both sides of the ball Milan quickly falls back onto bad (losing/drawing) habits such as lack of off the ball movement on O and letting opposing strikers wander unmonitored in their own box when on D.

Carlo’s saying the team looked sluggish.

im am a Milan purist, which means i cant help but be upset when we drop such crucial points at this stage in the title race going into the derby. Kaka is going to be severely missed, but like i said earlier we have plenty of Quality capable of thrashing the Merda if they play well. if u think i ever said i doubted Milan your Crazy, Dorf and Dinho are just gonna have to man up for this one in order to not make Kaka’s absence felt thats all im saying!

How do you read the upcoming Derby? Inter have changed a lot from the first Derby. Mancini, Chivu, Viera, Quaresma and even Materazzi are either gone or will not figure this weekend.
In truth Inter are a lot better than the team that had two shots on target and two men sent off last september.
Back then, Milan had just turned a corner from their start of season disappointments with a convincing win against Lazio. The Brazilian triumvirate had stuttered in the early matches but was hitting the ground running against Inter and it was a Ronnie-Kaka 1-2 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qxv4Fk8Liak that broke the deadlock.Unfortunately Milan’s post christmas game plan seems to be one of getting the ball out wide and crossing it for the big centre forward they don’t possess instead of sticking to the kind of incisive passing and movement of the pre-Christmas Milan that was topping the table.
Missing Kaka is serious but Milan is far from a one-man team. Reggina’s ability to park a bus in front of goal and frustrate a milan team including Kaka was infuriating for those present but that will certainly not be Inter’s game plan and the attacking nature of both teams should see a more fluid game. Dinho will get more opportunity for threading balls for Pato who, in turn, should enjoy the game more than against Reggina where his inexperience showed – his best moment was winning a penalty.
Hope to see some of this next weekend…

Shingai,different people on this blog have their own opinion of expressing themselves. It may include declaring that we suck if we cant beat reggina,but we are the best if we beat Inter. Let them express it(whether its right or wrong).

I never really expected Milan to win the Scudetto this year,because deep down I know,this team is not strong enough.
Even when we came to within 6pts of Inter(after they lost 3:1 to Atlanta),I said that we were almost back into the title race. Covering that 6pt gap is near impossible for this team,considering the no. of unnecessary points that we drop. It will take a miracle for us to win.Posted from
