I really don't care even he couldn't dribble the ball over 1 defender or 2, as long as he could score 40 goals in a season.

mate gila last season scored 40 goals with parma and italy

Only my opinion: Dhorasoo needs to play more with Milan, he impresses me today.

And I think that Brocchi it's better than Gattuso, Milan needs a squad rotation, I don't know why Ancelotti don't like Dhorasoo...

i cant take this **** anymore!!!

by the way why did he take off rui costa??? he was our best player... god dammit take off crespo!! he should sticked with the christmas tree formation its only problem was crespo, hes just **** i cant take it anymore!!!... and dhorasso should play more....!!!!!!!!

I didn't watch the game. But by all reports rui Costa was playing well, so I don't understand why he was taken off. It can't be to preserve him because he never plays. I love Carlo but he's done some suspect moves in the last 3 games.

Let's try to look on the bright side. We are only 6 points back, we'll make those up in our 2 games against Juve.

i didn't get to watch the game, the online video stream was like slide show every 3 minutes.. was kaka really bad? if so, i hope that ancelotti has the guts to bench him for a while. nobody should play unless mentally and physically prepared.

crespo and jdt really kills me. i always think that they will shine. but the day just hasn't arrived yet. my confidence is weakening. i just hope that sheva can come back as soon as possible. he is the only person that delivers. damn it. how could our attacking become such a headache?

i am quite sad, but i believe that juventus won't beat us in the race. our good days are awaiting. juventus has nobody but buffon and capello. they concern me, but i am not very worried. or at least not now, i will not give in until the last minute. i am always like that. every year, i didn't give in until mathematically we couldn't win. and now we have a strong squad, and the season is young, i will surely hold on to my hope.

so dhorasoo played well? good to hear that. we should have given him more chances. now the italian cup is coming up, nobody should complain, everybody will be given some time.

juve would destroy us with the way we played these last couple of games!!!

I want a new striker for christmas. milan cannot realistically expect to score more than 1 goal without Sheva or Inzaghi. even if we had of one this, it would have been through a bit of luck.

I think Carlo's decisions have been fine, he needs to have some capable players though. mind you he wanted Crespo.

Tired, slow, predictable & lack of ideas.....

Milan's flop transfer campaign is starting to take effect.....


Forza Milan

I don't know why, but I just found that post hilarious, probably because it says "to be fair to Bayman" and the only positive thing in there toward the guy is "he's entitled to his opinion".

Xudong, Kaka was probably one of most effective players along with Rui today.

About the match, I'll give credit to Brescia who were very difficult to break down. The team didn't do too badly today, but really lacked the finishing touch. I guess we can describe it like we were a knife without the sharp edge.

Crespo was invisible during the match, while JDT was ok after coming on, however, no one in the side seemed like they would really score.

I'm really tired of hearing these calls for new signings in January. I've asked this in another thread, but to those who keep calling for new players, what do we do until January???

Theres no point in signing a new player if its too late to make a difference.

Anyway, clearly the side needs to work urgently on having that slight "brilliance" (as Ancelotti put it) or "sharpness" to what is often otherwise reasonable play considering the point of the season.

Also, nice to see Dhorasoo do ok, as I've said everytime people have said he's not Milan quality that its unlikely his lack of playing time is due to his abilty.

were only 6 points behind and its still early, comments like "no scudetto this year" are just plain idiotic. NEVER give up till theres no other choice.

FORZA MILAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i think we need a new striker immidiately but i also noticed our middlefield barely scores. seedorf scored 3 goals in the beggining n nothing since then, gattuso scores once a year, kaka has been horrible n pirlo scores once a month. i dun think the strikers is the onli problem

And just bet who are these people~

REGULAR goal production from the mid. is never a guarantee no matter who is on the team even if you show me previous teams (with lots of 'scoring' mids) that have done it in my opinion its only 50-50 that they can continue it regularly, I am talking about over a long term which is what I hope we are talking about.
Creating is another thing and should be the first requirement for 'offensive' mids.

Good performances by Seedorf, Brocchi and Tomasson, Dhorasoo when they entered; I was surprised by the Frenchman - very good control, a technical player.

Kaka' and Crespo are so far away from their best form, I honestly can't comprehend with the fact that the Argentine was preferred to Tomasson as the lone striker. The Dane, although far from his best, at least plays for the team and is capable of getting to goalscoring chances. He did more in 20 minutes than the selfish, inefficient Crespo did in 90.

It has to be said, nearly impossible to play a decent style of football on that pitch, though.

It is not like Juve play any better. Lost against Reggina and they where not better than Fiorentina despite playing at home.

Taken of XT as an reply to someone that said Pirlo should be blamed and that Kaka at least runs...
________________________________

Please, Pirlo is the most blamed player around and he do his job and I fail to see all those wasted passes that people talk about. Or does everyone here watch crappy internet videolinks where you can't distinguish the players from each other. Pirlo against Brescia didn't move much, but that is not his role. His biggest problem yesterday was that both Seedorf and moreso Brocchi wanted his role and position several times. I could see them all stand within acouple of meters and Brocchi being the one that tried to distribute balls. Brocchi did that awfully by the way, so if anyone want to say that Pirlo played some bad long balls it may very well have been Brocchi...

and talk about Kaka or anyone running. I wonder how do you know or do you only count the 5 times per game when he make a run with the ball? the only ones that see how much players REALLY runs are the ones at the stadium. We others have to satisfy with the ones close to the ball and have to guess why the ball seldom reaches our attacking tridente. Is it because they move little? Move in bad ways? Because Brescia have closed all passing areas? Frankly we can't tell from our viewpoint.

Dhorasoo could easily beat a opponent to create space and opportunity and he look really eager to play. I told you so.

Tyge I do not agree with you about Brocchi. He was ok in the first half, but he was not there in the second. He do play good when he runs around the pitch and creates openings in offense. but as I mentioned above he tried to take Pirlos role to often and his passes is simply not good enough. while his defensive work was okay, he did almost nothing on the other half.

someone ought to tell Rui that you should shoot low shots on a slippy field, moreso with close shots against a tall keeper. Now if also someone could tell JDT to chip the keeper, the absolutely best finish on a keeper rushing out and being close.
