Seconded.
What we kind of lack this season is playing like we played Juve few weeks ago,i.e. don`t waste any chances,scoring early,keep the match under control,and defend if there`s nothing else left to do.I know it`s tough and that our players are under huge pressure,not to mention how difficult it is to play Viola at home,but if we could beat them last season twice,i see no reason why we couldn`t have done it this time as well,it would be too much to say that it`s only because they have got Toni and we don`t,since we are a far more `complete` and skillful team(and we`ve got Sheva,Gila,Kaka` and Pippo in the same team!).I think that in the first half we dominated even though it was so silly to let Toni score like that,and what happened in the second half i just can`t explain.I really hope this won`t affect our performance in Istanbul and that we will soon be back as our old selves.
Forza Milan!

Gila scored a regular goal at 2-1, but unfortunately the goal was not convalidated because the linesman "saw" a foul. I'm sure that if there was a juve player in place of Gila the goal would be good.

carlo says we played well.... what more can I say.... if he thinks we did well, we can always play like this and simple take place no.2 and be relaxed. This sucks tottaly, why cant he just once say : " we played badly, we need improvement, i did something wrong....".

Gila is on FIRE!!!... I hope we and specially him goes to Istambul revengeful as we are double hurted first CL fin.. and now this one that feels like a spear in the heart...
I hope Toni gives Juve a beat up next time... and keep the streak all the way to Germany!!!...
Our problem is complacency always happens... and we are much better after we lose so we stop feeling like rock stars for a sec and mind the reality of the situation we're in... if we took a deficit in playing this way to somehow capitalize next Wed in Turkia... then we should play them exactly as we played JUVE!... PERIOD!!!

Fiorentina was better than Milan both in terms of motivation and organization.There is nothing else to say...We did not play good today

Anybody to rate our players?

And highlights PLS!!!...

I agree, in the second half we totally sucked from organizational and motivational point of view. IMO we had our minds on Istanbul and played this game just because we had to, just went through the motions.
Still, I believe we could have stolen away a draw with that disallowed Gila effort 5 min from end. It was a very dubious situation as the ref didn't signal for anything but the linesman, who was much farther away than the ref, "saw" a foul on Di Loreto. I can't say 100% that Gila didn't do anything wrong but I am even farther from believeing that the goal was correctly disallowed. One thing I am absolutely sure though - it that was Juve playing the Viola, the goal would have stood.
Anyway, we have a much more important game to play and I am sure we will see a very, very different Milan on Wednesday. The Serie A is still way too young, far from the decisive stages, unlike the CL.

Forza Milaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan !!!

Today was a terribly played game by Milan. No intensity, none of the fire we showed against Juve and Udinese, like against PSV. Our midfield was non existant when Fiorentina was counterattacking. Our defence was snoozing on the goals. Please explain to me how Toni could be left so wide open on a free kick? It was simply embarrassing. On the second goal we totally lost focus and pretty well let Fiorentina come at us. All that was needed was a simple clearance. Pirlo and Nesta both slipped when they had the chance to clear it. The final goal was the same story failing to clear on a set piece. It's a recurring theme now. It seems as if we don't know how to deal with the ball when it comes in off free kicks and corners.

Gilardino played well. He hardly touched the ball on the way in but it was good to get away from his mark. IMHO there was no foul on his second goal he did well to put it away. We also had a pretty clear penalty denied as Brocchi blocked the ball with his arm in front of the goal.

Shevchenko was a non-factor for most of the game. He did however contribute with a shot that went over by a little bit. Also him and Gila worked a great one two at the top of the box but he put his shot wide with Ujfalusi bothering him. Kaka' was much to selfish and always looking for fouls instead of making the simple pass. Not one of his best performances for Milan.

If Milan don't go to Istanbul with more intensity and look for a win I am sad to say that this season could well be over soon.

u guys should stop complaining... carlo shouldnt be hanged... it was obvious we didnt lose because we were tactically outpowered... the players didnt seem to want to move, what should carlo give them steroids?!? they were lazy... blame them and not carlo, carlo cant force them to play perfect passes during the game, he can teach them during training on how to improve on it and obviously we perfected it from the previous games weve seen, the players just couldnt pass the ball right, we seemed out of determination, and theres nothing to do but look to work harder next match.

We already have 8 win in a row in serial A this season.As i already predicted a lost plus toni so good form now.We did bet juve after they winning run. The defender dont defend well but our stricker play well. And the important things is now a win in Turkey. the season is still long way.We still have hope even it might be slim with Juve strong with 5 point lead.See in EPL where chelsea also can also lose and draw to lower class team. This might happen to Juve as well. The important thing is to recover the winning mental for champion league......ForZa MiLan

I totally agree...I think our players were thinking a little too much about Istanbul, and so was Carletto.

i only got to watch the first little bit...but i was amazed how strong this Fiorintina team is! they really made it hard for us to play. from what i watched, we were spending all of our energy just defending! although i am very happy with Gila's playing i hope we get our concentration back and start kicking some a$s again

Many people here are so pessimistic, but I don't really understand why to be honest. We won 8 games in a row, and ok...now we lost against Fiorentina. But I think losing against the Viola is not a shame! This team is really strong!
Now we have 28 points out of 36! This is really not bad at all! And we don't have to look to Juve, Milan only needs to concentrate on their own games! And if Juve keeps winning, well, then they really deserve to be the champion of Italy! We must be honest with that!
But I think that also Juve will have a bad moment during this season. After all there is still a long way to go!

No worries!!!

FORZA MILAN!!!

we were not spending all our time defending....we pretty much had control of the game until poor finishing causing fiorentina to counter attack.
