Palermo - Milan (May 10, 20h45) Coppa Italia Semifinal Second Leg

[HO-YOUNG]

Allegri showed up the players who should be shipped out this summer!!!

Truthfully we lost this in the first leg, where I will say Allegri made the mistake of fielding Sokratis and fielding Seedorf-Pirlo (mostly with a Pirlo that just came back from injury and a tired Seedorf, cause as opposed to that game, today both seem in a better physical state and much more active in game play, they created a lot, lets not be blinded by the result and Seedorf + Pirlo starting, eventhough I would just use one of the 2, I think both were good today).

I think in the second half the partying scudetto high caused the biggest issues, with us unable to score in the first half, the players lost the momentum they had caused by the "lets win this" idea.

Not really hurt about this elimination, at the end of the day, its not always easy to find motivations to win a Coppa Italia (as shown by the fact that in the last 25 years we only have 1), and Palermo did want it and the Barbera has always been a difficult stadium for us. If anything my only regret is that we didn't play more youth in it (not saying whole team but maybe Strasser or Merkel or Beretta could've seen a few minutes over both legs).

Oh on the positive note, our goal was really eye candy, Cassano's assist was perfect.

I think Allegri knew his mistake as he didnt let Papa anywhere near the pitch last night, he knows where he went wrong and just couldnt dig us out, i also hope we destroy Palermo next season haha

[ACM1899]

I know it might be a bit pointless but is somebody going to open the Milan - Cagliari thread?

[WCmilan]

Ugh.. I need Palermo to demolish Inter now, i don't want to hear inter fans stupid excuses of "We're better then you because palermo eliminated you guys and we eliminated them", it's there only defence if it does happen in all honesty because of their embarassing season particularily the first half..

Well, you should not care.
Deep down inside they know things are changing.

Anyway, few days ago, Spurs struggled to grab a late equaliser in White Heart Lane v Stoke.
Doesn't mean Stoke are better than Milan.
