i was thinking, what gear will milan opt for? i think l'pool will go for red, milan white, same gear we used against:

- benfica 63
- steaua 89
- benfica 90
- barcelona 94
- juventus 03

Milan have a superstition for cup finals - that they must wear white. I remember they explicity asked to wear white against Juve. Liverpool probably want to wear red anyway as it is the colour they are known by.

by the way, i found this on UEFA.com

"The Sun, clearly unconvinced by Milan, commented: "(Liverpool captain) Steven Gerrard had better practise lifting trophies. Milan are not as good as they think.""

a little english arrogance there i see. Let's be honest - the liverpoolers are shaking in their boots at the prospect of facing Milan.
