Arsenal-Milan CL Round of 16 Leg 1

So you're coming Ghost? Were will you be sitted ? Is it your first time at the Giuseppe Meazza?

Any other Italian team would have lost today, probably with two goals difference.

No, i'm not saying that Milan is better than Inter or Roma Actually, i think Inter, Roma and Barcelona are the teams that can and will eliminate Milan if they play you.
But Milan are tactically superior to the English teams while Inter, Roma and Juve aren't.
Maybe it's a very optimistic prediction, but if Milan don't play Inter, Roma and Barca then you'll win CL again.

Oh, as for the return leg, it will be 2:0 at SS with Pippo being the star of the night. 5 or 6 offsides and then Bang-Bang

No, Ghost. I am not going for the away leg.

Your right though, we did miss van Persie, again I wont be arrogant by saying that we would have won with RvP on the pitch, but I can say that we would have troubled your keeper alot more. Eduardo is a good player but hes not used to games of this level.

the thing I would like to add: Milan actually had 3 "forwards" who were out of shaoe today, meaning not phisically 100% ready - Kaka', Seedorf and Pato. Especially Clarence who Milan needs if we are about to be more dangerous than today. Even Galliani himself said so, and when he says such thing you know its true.

Arsenal played well today, they did their best. Milan will look differently at the San Siro. Rino, Pirlo and Ambro will play with more power, and Pippo will play upfront most likely, aldough PAto did well enough for his first CL game.

Hey Gio,

I don't know where my seat is allocated yet but should find out soon and yes this is the first time I'll get to see the San Siro.

I can't wait, so many years I heard unbelievable stories about this ground and knowing in 2 weeks time I will be there to watch a game is out of this world. The only sad thing is I could only book 2 days off work so on the day of the game i'll have to come to Milan, watch the game stay overnight and come back home the next day.

Id like to mention that we had 5 players that were not 100% ready as well. Flamini, Clichy, Senderos and Adebayor were doubt for this game, but were lucky enough to shake off their injuries.

Plus Sagna was a doubt for reasons already mentioned

Van persie is a player who can turn a game upside down within an instance, a top player who can really trouble any keeper. I think he would have caused many problems today and here's me hoping for his return in 2 weeks time.

Eduardo still needs time as this is his first season, I still think he'll turn out to be a superb player.

I'm sure no English side has ever won at the San Siro, the same story at the Bernabeu a few seasons back and we all know what happened there.

Oh what I would do for some Henry magic

i think its gonna be the same story as it was with MAN U..because MAN U were also contending very strongly for the domestic title and ended up getting killedi n the san siro...and arsenal is the same way this season contending for the title

I don't think we will get absolutely slaughtered like United did at the San Siro last season, I would suggest more like individual brilliance by Kaka like he done against Celtic.

I can see a single goal deceiding the tie.

Hopefully its to the away side

Reactions from a Juve forum after Adebayor crossbar.

Culo means "luck" (and also arse)
Traversa is crossbar

Kalac named "Spider Kuloc" is priceless

Italian Juventini are taking this a lot more personal than the ones from juventuz.
But i'm sure they took Inter's defeat yesterday equally happy.

A few pearls of wisdom:

- "it's not luck; it was Saint Silvio's hand "

- "let's cheer the symbol and legend of Milan: Gian Nikola Kulovic "
