It has been a topsy-turvy week for Milan ahead of Sunday’s clash with our dislikeable cousins Inter. The headlines have been dominated by the transfer fiasco involving Carlos Tevez and Alexandre Pato which has left doubts regarding the harmony, or lack of, at the Via Turati.

The international week is finally over, thankfully, and now we can again focus on what really matters; the Serie A. And more importantly Milan’s bid to retain the Scudetto.
