AC Milan vs. Barca (1/2 CL, 1st leg)

18th or 19th?

I think the tie that plays on the 18th will play on the 25th.
But which tie plays which date?

Tobyr1974 was planning to book a flight to Milan...
Did he find the exact date of the game?

Do we play the first leg at home? If that's the case, then.. well, crap. Anyhow, I'm looking forward to these matches, and I especially like that we'll be considered underdogs. It's been a while since the last time we were considered as such.

Obviously yes.

I think if Anchellotti wakes up from his tactical comatosis and Messi isn't back, we should win this.The last three Barca game have nearly sent me to sleep.

I'm not sure if Toby did find out in the end, still i'm sure it'll be on the uefa site soon enough.

Are any of the Barca players suspended at all or one card away from suspension ? Lets hope some of our injured players have returned by then and also that Barca give our midfield more room to work.

i think Deco is suspended for others i dont know for sure i will check

I know Etoo was booked, so i was wondering if he picked up another at the San Siro if he would then miss the game at the Nou Camp ??

of course Eto would

Yes Deco is definitely out of the frist leg: don't like it that we have to play frist leg at home.

i wasn't sure if it was just 2 yellow cards for a suspension or 3 ...

Yes every 2 yellow cards is a suspension... Gattuso for example recived his third yellow card yerstaday but he still will play, but after the fourth he will be suspended again (he was already suspended once against Bayern).

And this fantasy football on Uefa.com is pure nonsense, or Uefa itself nonsense. Ronaldinho getting much more points than Sheva for each goal or assist, because he's considered as a midfielder. But than tell me why last year he recived Uefa best forward award, if he supposed to be in the midfielders category (Kaka won it). Last year we so many good strikers playing like Sheva, RvN (8 goals in 6 games), Crespo, Eto'o and more, and the guy that won it wasn't even a striker...how can it be? That just pisses me off, sometimes uefa administrators can be real morons.

Uefa are just so bias to Ronaldinho

I'm kinda scared for Milan cuz their playing is unstable. If in the game with Barca they really play like AC Milan does then Barca will be wiped out!

But if the same thing happens as in the game with Lion it will sure cost us some nerves...

Milan-Barca is on 18th and do we play Inter on 15th if so that's really bad we could lose second place cause will be saving our players for Barca i hope not

Yeah Deco won't play the first game and that's good and if Messi doesn't play we could beat them easily but in Barcelona will be a real hell

yea yea you're right 2 yellow cards=suspension i just checked

Nah it is 2 mate

Let's all remember the 1994 UCL final...

Barca, managed by Cruyff was a heavy favorite, with Romario, Stoitchkov, Koeman, etc. and we won 4-0 in Athens...
