nah... only whe i have spare time

but, I do not get where are the simmilarities between that pale-faced guy and me forever online at MM?

No similarities. Truth be told I wasnt really getting what you were trying to convey. You asked who Trefoloni was, I thought you were asking which one was he so I said hes the pale-faced one. Im sorry, a bit blur today.

Ibrahamovic will not play, the 2nd appeal was turned down today.

I'm reluctant to be drawn on what this means for us, teams often pull out great results when the odds are against them. Hopefully his absence will be felt in the Bologna game when they struggle to find a way through a ten man wall. Against us it could make them play more defensive which wouldn't at all suit us.

Our squad might be rather limited but hopefully most of the players will recover for the Milan match ... As for Ibrahimovic not being there it might be hard but you are right Meazza, teams do pull out great results when the odds are against them. Think this would be more of a battle of mental strength than physical.

Well now that juve won against bologna we need to beat them on sunday. So...We are gonna be a little tired but we can surely give 90 min. of 100% football. Juve will miss Ibrahimović and hopefuly someone else... It will be tough becouse juve will defend, im sure of that. The only man that can create problems is camoranesi with his crosses, so we need to block him. If we play paciently and concentrate more than in psv game we can win it. If we do it, we have the title. Lecce and Palermo can't do anything against us, in the last round we would need a point, so this is the " last challenge ". Let's just hope no one gets injured in eindhoven so ****in moggi can cry about his team was " ripped off " again.. Forza Magico Milan!!!

Juve's squad is limited even at full strength. Want proof? You are out of the CL, thrown out by a team that lives on borrowed energy in the EPL and if it wasn't for a number, or should I say a GALLORE, of controversial referee decisions in the Serie A, Juve would be at least 5-10 points behind Milan.
If a team like Juve wins the Serie A, I am absolutely sure that a lot of football fans will lose confidence in what it means to win a title in Italian football.

i thought juve shouldve got some more yellow cards vs bologna and the linesman was absolutly crappy today, bologna had 2 breakaways on buffon that have been counted offside in the second half and both were on the same line as the last man

Boils down to this game. Let's stuff them.

Well you know what we'll do, we will go to Milan and play for a draw. I think the match is going to be a repeat of the one last December in which Milan had the better run of play and Juve will have very few chances to score. The longer we keep the ball out of our net the better chance we have of getting something from this match, probably at best taking a point back to Turin. But if both teams play like they have been playing recently Milan will win the match.

It just proves that milan is by far better team then juve.
And if juve wins the title this would be real shame. And i agree if refs didn't help juve so much ( chievo, bologna, roma,and so on... ) they would be at least 5 points behind. Never mind it, lets destroy the " old ***** " in the first half and then make it attack us in the second half.

If Milan was by far the better team than Juve why are we level on points?

What Milan has over Juventus is more dynamic players that can win matches with moments of individual brilliance like Kaka, Pirlo, Seedorf, and Sheva. Juventus does not have many dynamic players that can turn games, and we have to rely more on the team effort because our squad is not where near that of Milan's. But to say that Milan is by far the better team is a bit of a stretch IMO.

I guess the only posts you read are only your own - the answer to your question could be found in a couple of posts just before yours:
"if it wasn't for a number, or should I say a GALLORE, of controversial referee decisions in the Serie A, Juve would be at least 5-10 points behind Milan."
As Ancelotti said, "The only thing Milan and Juve have in common is the number of points." This came after yet another referee-gifted win for Juve - over Roma or Chievo, not sure.
Dare to venture a guess what he was referring to? Well, pretty much what was said above only he did it in an indirect way to keep some sort of decency, unlike Saint Moggi who makes the whole world laugh at him by his anti-Juve conspiracy theories. I guess there is no such thing as "low enough" for Moggi; can you imagine that - a conspiracy against the most referee favoured team in the whole of Italy with 25 out of 35 games ending in a very very "suspicious" way.

Yes, we have been favored more than Milan this season in terms of referee decisions. The matches against Chievo and Cagliari are points we should not have recieved, BUT you cannot use Roma as evidence because that was just a horrible officiated match that affected both sides. Yes we recieved a nonexistent penalty but later in the match Zlatan scored only for the goal to be disallowed wrongly. Moreover, at least one Roma player should have been sent off. So please do not use that match as an example.

But I am not disagreeing with you lot that Milan deserves to be in front of Juve because they have given better performances throughout the season. Juventus does not deserve to be level on points with Milan and if the season had ended today the latter should be the winner of the Scudetto. But what I don't like seeing is people saying Milan is BY FAR the better team than Juve when we have a much lesser squad than Milan and have average players like Blasi and Appiah playing a major part in our season, that's all. But yes Milan has given the better performances throughout the season.
