Roma-Milan

Warro i read all the time, though i don't always understand the words. The pictures help though

Kui i'm not sure what you want me to apologise for. I didn't call you a rude word or anything. Your point about some members wanting us to lose this match in my eyes is a bit gloomy and depressing and you being the one to mention this made you a messenger of sorts. It was said in jest as much as anything else and i'm not going to apologise if you didn't find it funny. I didn't accuse you of anything, i never said you were the one who wanted us to lose. So to a point, maybe you're just being a bit over sensitive about this? I'm not trying to tick you off either, but i don't see how i've done a great deal wrong.

I don't see what i have to be embaressed about. You seem pretty wound up about a throw-away comment.


If it makes you feel any better i will announce to everyone who reads this that you are always sincere with your posts, especially in cases such as this.


Anyway on to the match and here is the 20 man squad called up for the game.

PORTIERI: Dida, Fiori, Kalac;

DEFENDERS: Antonelli (n.31), Bonera, Cafu, Costacurta, Maldini, Nesta, Jankulovski, Simic;

CENTROCAMPISTI: Brocchi, Gourcuff, Kakà, Pirlo, Seedorf;

ATTACKING: Borriello, Gilardino, Inzaghi, Riccardo Oliveira.

With only 5 midfielders and 4 of them being on the pitch, i would have thought they could have called up another member of the Primavera team.

There's also a doubt over Dida, he has a back problem apparently and might not make it for tomorrow's match. Which leaves us with Kalac or Fiori, what a choice.

Can't forget 2 things when I remember Kalac, Brescia's goal mishap and Australia and Croatia in WC

Why did you guys let Abbiati go, Juve OK because Buffon had a dislocated shoulder but now leave him to Torino?

I think keeping Gourcuff as a sub would be good and keep Brocchi in, he had a fantastic cup match, scored a great goal and has been OK in the last 2 games he played now, Gourcuff wasn't up to the beat in the Atalanta match.

what's even more ridiculous is when people jump to conclusions without having a clear idea of what he actually said let alone what he meant by saying it.

What Carlo said was that Roma play very good, quick football with lots of short and quick passing and at Roma the collective is above any individual player. For these reasons, playing them would be EVEN more difficult than playing Inter or Palermo.
It's on the Italian version of the site, not the loosely translated English version:

Kalac isn't the perfect keeper, i hope we all remember his blunder at the WC when Kovac scored for Croatia.
Anyway, if we play like we did against inter we could get 3 points home out of this game.
Forza Milan.

Some of the Primavera players, Guerci, Di Gennaro, Agbamayang (that has to be spelled wrong) would surely give us more options on the bench and more pace.

We don't need 3 or 4 defenders on our bench.

can any1 tell me wat PACIFIC TIME will the game start....and any links?

Mate, for future reference please visit http://soccertv.com/ for info on what time games will start. Milan-Roma will be at 11:30 AM Pacific time, but on GOL TV it will be shown with 90 minute tape delay.

About the links, just relax, zlat will post them eventually

Abbiati apparently fell in love with the city of Torino

Regarding links, I will post them later tonight but for those who are losing patience, the game will be on Shanghai, Guandong, and Caifu ... and some others but these three channels are the more popular.

Yup...not looking good...I would take Fiori though...or my grandmother over Mr. Opps I dropped the ball Kalac...

Hope Gourcuff will start..but that would be at Seedorf´s expense...and I am sure Carlo wont do that...then why play Clarence during the mid-week game...?...ok, maybe he was forced to.

Hope the Dutchman is up to it.

Also hope its not Gila and Pippo again...Oliviera and one other is good for me..

Gol TV, in their wisdom, are showing the game SDD (Same Day Delay)...so I am going to check with u guys tomorrow re streams...this is a match that has to be seen live, or with a 2 minute delay at worst!



Still a little nervy...but lets see...and as always:

FORZA MIIIIIIIIIILAN!!!

hey guys sorry iam just realy anxious....ummm its showing that a match will be on 9 am in the morning.....idk iam just gonna watchit on the links zlat will post iam sorry guys

Sorry guys for writing oma-Milan, when it's supposed to be Milan-Roma, you are play in GZ or San Siro for sensitive Milanistas it's OK, I say San Siro because it's easier

Dunno where Zlat is.. but so far according to http://www.myp2p.eu/Matches/Match6.htm The match will be shown online through: QSIV, SIPTV, SHTV and Guangdong. I suggest using QSIV ..it's really reliable and is in English

thnx for the info mystik..........just do double check so the game will be on 11:30 A.M right?

I said I'd accept your apology before hand full well knowing you werent going to give one. Thats fine. That's the measure of who you are pal. You think I made this up about people wanting us to lose this match? Ok.... you asked for it
Here it is:http://www.milanmania.com/forums/sho...&postcount=165 That's is just one of several being posted all across this forum Jim. You didnt accuse me? You called me a harbinger of doom when IN FACT the rest of you folks have been doing nothing but talking about doom. I've been just about the only one here who has been calling for calm and sanity from the lot of you. I'm not ticked off but you've been plain wrong... no DEAD wrong. So while you may not feel embarrassed, you were not disagreeable... you were wrong.
