Bonera's crosses are really some of the worst ones I have ever seen. He is solid defensefly however.
Mrki, to answer your question....yes. Milan is playing fast in midfield and that's opening Chievo well right now. That's how space for the goal was created. Pirlo was on the right and passed it to Brocchi in the middle who turned fast and gave the ball to Janku who had space to shoot. We basically switched the point of attack very quickly and Chievo had no chance to re-allign their defence. That's how you open up these defensive teams ant that's what Milan is doing at the moment.
Gila and Oliveira have really worked well together. They havens scored obviously but they create for one another and work off-each other. We might want to see this partnership more often....let's see how they do in the second half.

We just need to be carefull after the break. Keep possesion and keep tight in the back. Sneaking in another one in the first 10-15 mins should really throw Chievo off.

Janculovski!!!! What a goal!!!! And Oliveira is trying hard...playing quite well actually. Kaka is mostly blocked by Chievo defenders, Pirlo havent been seen much...Overall performance is not bad...although our defenders panic a lot when Chievo is attacking. They should calm down a little bit.

How is Gila doing?

I can see that one of Gila or Oliveira will propably scored today!

I can watch Palermo-Messina but im still trying to see this one through Sopcast, its soooo slow.......uhhh......

Thanks for the updates people...!

yes, might be available for the Inter game but I doubt it ... more like one more week for him on the sidelines.

semioli is on ... we need to be watchful of him

two offsides for us .... Semioli has been blocked once and gone close with a header ... pay attention to him milan!

Nesta for Bonera..I believe
