In your dreams... How about Dida-Zambro, kaladze, Senderos, Jankulowski - Flamini, Pirlo, Emerson -Kaka - Dinho, Sheva? I mean, it is much more likely, knowing our coach...
With the team I wrote (more or less) WE won the only game this summer vs. Juve.

PS Do you know which channel will show this game in Bulgaria? I will be in Sofia on thursday.

is Milan making this a priority at all? Because if not, it doesnt make sense to tire your players in this tournament. play all the subs and prospects only, and focus only on the league. Lose the Cup early, and make sure you dont worry about midweek games. use the whole week to focus on the weekend's game. Thats what Id like to see actually. The Seria A is a must

Tire? well, they must be running in some game before that will happen.

According to sportmediaset, we'll play Dida; Antonini, Kaladze, Bonera, Jankulovski; Seedorf, Flamini, Ambrosini; Kaká; Pato, Borriello.

I certainly hope that we play with two strikers and that those two will be Pato and Borriello.

That is a pretty nice lineup IMO.
It is actually. Let's see if this Antonini kid is any good. Is Cardaccio even on the bench? I have a small place in my heart for the uruguayans and would love to see this guy get a chance. I understand he is pretty good.

"The absence of Pirlo? Players that can play in his position are Flamini and Emerson".

-Carlo Ancelotti.


What did I tell you? Probably not in this game, but against Lazio I expect three DM's. Wait and see.

Well, you are not lucky - we are not lucky - because no TV in Bulgaria is going to show it - at least for now... But if I learn something new, I will inform you, I promise!

Cardacio wasn't called... guess he definitely isn't the UEFA squad list then...

Emerson of four years ago would have been a decent Pirlo replacement if not exactly the same player. HE was really good, but now he is a shell of the player but Carlo seems to think of him as a still top level performer.

If we lost 2-0 to Lugano, I expect a similar scoreline at the San Siro against the swiss top flight team. We are in a deep crisis, and with the lack of motivation around this cup (crazy to even claim that the focus is on the league given our start), I can't see us winning this one.

If you look at the goals, it was two lightly marked headers from crosses coming from the by-line. He works great for Prandelli.

Not so hard to figure out, really. Gila did well in the league but had a hard time scoring in the CL at first.....so in typical fashion the fans heaped ridicule on him...........so he never really managed to gain any continental confidence..............but he scored in the league until the fans began ridiculing him because he could score there but not in hte precious Champions League...............so pretty soon the poor f*ck couldn't score at all.


Its a bit of a simplification and there were a few other factors (no wing service at all the last couple of years) but it is not far from hitting the bullseye. I'm glad Gila is doing well. He really put up with a lot of crap at Milan and never stopped trying. Talk about heart.

It is the tactic. Prandelli is using the same tactic when Gilardino was playing with Parma. And no Gila didn't do that well in the league with us. Don't blame the fans for Gila's shortcomings. They supported him, but he didn't deliver with Milan. IMO a typical Parma product, all hype no results.
