When was really the least time Milan won a meaningless game like this one? We played Celta, Deportivo, and Borussia D in Cl under the very same circumstances - we had already made sure that we'd finish top of the group - and we lost all those games after some heartless displays very much like the night tonight ... and in those seasons we were very solid as we were big favourits in both Serie A and CL.
that's why tonight's perfomance is hardly a reason for any worries in itself ... what we should concern ourselves about is if our performances and results don't improve significantly from now till late February when the CL will resume. We have to use this "gap" to our full advantage to concentrate on improving our league positiona and make up for as many points we've lost so far.
A significant improvement in form - read perfomance and results - would also be necessary once the CL starts as the opponents will only get tougher from now on.
Just hope that till then we recover some players from injuries and add some players in January because we will need a full strength squad once the CL resumes and we have to again do battle on 2 fronts.

The thing is that we could have lost this game...but not like THAT! The performance was really bad...if we play like that against Torino - we will lose badly. And i also don't understand why we played Kaka tonight. Wasn't it better to let him rest, especially after his foot injury? Why didn't we play Gila? He needs to play in such games, because this is his chance to improve his form...And also many other WHY?...
