After last night’s draw with Udinese, Milan remain winless after three rounds played which makes it official: this is the club’s worst start to a season since 1997. Back then, the Rossoneri failed to beat Piacenza in their opening game, only managing a draw. Then against Lazio they were denied by a late Giuseppe Signori [...]

We Milan fans are lucky. Many a night have we been blessed with magical moments in Europe’s premier club competition, the Champions League. The greatest recent memory was the year of 2007. Italian football was a mess after Calciopoli reshaped and distorted the Serie A as a viably competitive league. Forget the Azzurri’s triumph in [...]

After last Wednesday came to an end and no big signing was announced, I must admit I was disappointed. Like last year when the club landed two great players late in the transfer window I was hopeful the club would do so again. Far from arbitrary, the promises of the fabled Mr. X gave my [...]

When someone sent me a link for the line-ups for the Berlusconi Trophy on Twitter, I will admit that I was not overly confident of a win. My response, in fact, was that Juve would be the favourites if these were the two teams that were to take to the field. And there was good [...]

If there ever was a match that highlighted how a football game can be a story of two halves, it was this one. AC Milan managed to claim the Italian Super Cup in Beijing but only after coming back from one nil down with two goals in the second half. In typical fashion Max Allegri’s [...]

It was the first real test for Milan in their preseason and despite penalties being required to separate the two sides, it was a less than convincing performance from Max Allegri’s league champions. Milan started the contest in relatively positive fashion and it did not take long for the away side to open the scoring [...]

It was an unforgettable night for all Milanisti not just in Milan or Italy but around the world and it all started with the team’s hammering of Cagliari. Max Allegri’s side did not need [...]

Last night Milan were eliminated from the Coppa Italia after yet another defeat against Palermo in Sicily. After clinching the title last weekend and with the trophy parade set for this weekend for the club’s last home game of the season, it was a loss that will put a slight damper on this week’s celebrations.

It was not Milan’s best performance of the season, but, few will care after it was enough to see Milan clinch the Scudetto for the eighteenth time. It is a success that is fully deserved as the Rossoneri have been by far the most consistent team throughout the season. As for the match against Roma, [...]
