Milan-Torino, The Return of El Gordo?

By: Gianfranco | November 3rd, 2007

I wanted to write a post about the possbile Big Ron return this weekend but then I came across and said, Why repeat something that has already been said so well.

Check it out

My apologies for the laziness today, but I just got home from a game in the pouring rain and do not have the will to write a thing, back up to full speed for a game recap 2moro.

  I don’t blame you…someone help us. clearly the solution to all of our problems is to stop playing home games altogether. *sighs* it’s absolutely mind-boggling, i don’t think i’ve ever seen such an inconsistent milan side…honestly, killing samp 5-0 one week, tying torino 0-0 the next week…

  Thanks for linking to my stuff, Gianfranco!

  I am still a little worried about the possibility of Gila being benched, especially after today’s draw with Torino.

  On one hand, Ancelotti seems less than pleased with Gila’s performance today. (What the hell, strikers aren’t allowed to have a single bad match?)

  On the other hand, he’s also talking up the possibility of a two-striker system.

  mind, in their defense, pippo and gila had very little balls played to them from midfield, especially towards the end with all the blasts we were taking from who knows where. gila definitely should have made something with his opportunities though.

  Seedorf was MOTM for me. Why did he come off? Was he hurt or something?

  yeah, i tend to frequent a lot of football websites, goal.com being among them.

  but seriously, that BF (bald.fu*k) is nowhere to be seen when we lose. he only comes out of his shell when we destroy somebody.

  what a bloody hypocrite. you never hear a team bragging about how they ‘almost’ got a player, galliani thinks by saying we almost got henry, toni, ribery, ibrahimovic et al hes going to soothe our insatiable requirements for victory. what a f’ing douche.

  we need to find that celtic fan who slapped dida and set him loose on galliani. ffs, ill do it myself..

  Sounds like all soccer managers are like that BF! Reminds me of my college manager too, he did show up only for award ceremonies and threaten us to better win!

  I didn’t watch the match, but comments says it

  Gila just can’t miss opportunities like he did in the 15th & 19th miunute.
  Not when you haven’t won at home for the year, or when his play has been called in to question as much as his has been. I guarantee you Ronaldo & Pato would have finished those chances.
  Seedorfs passes on both occasions were first class and then some.
  Watch Ronalso over the next couple of weeks. He’s going to lose the name El Gordo & tear it up!!!

  Watching Milan, you just feel so constipated. Here’s to the CL midweek games!
