We all know what happened. On Sunday night any hopes Milan had of retaining their domestic crown were dashed. To add insult to injury, the final blow came from city rivals Inter. To add yet further insult, it was the second time they had done so this season – and this year. Milan end the [...]
“The real regret for this year, as I said it to [Silvio] Berlusconi on the phone, is about Gattuso and Cassano….with the two of them we would have gained some more points,” were the words of Adriano Galliani on Monday, 24 hours after Milan’s four-goal rout of Siena. While it is not so easy [...]
“I don’t feel that my job is at risk”. These were the words of Max Allegri following his side’s surprise defeat to Fiorentina on Saturday. The loss enabled Juventus – still unbeaten this season – to leapfrog the Rossoneri into first place. Consequently, and most predictably, the Milan tactician has come under pressure with his [...]
It all started according to plan. Milan took the initiative from the beginning against Juventus, dominating possession and going ahead thanks to another strike from our free scoring midfielder, Antonio Nocerino. Ten minutes later it should have been two. But, it was not. Roberto Romagnoli, the assistant referee, somehow failed to see how Sulley Muntari’s [...]
The rumour mill may continue incessantly as it always does, but, for the time being no players will be swapping kits. Instead, now is the time for coaches to start preparing their troops, both new and old, for the business part of the season. It is already February and that mad month of May is [...]

Our main man, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, as ever had some choice words to say to Uefa.com in the lead up to Wednesday night’s blockbuster against his former side, Barcelona. Against the team I knew was the best when I left “It will be a very exciting, fantastic game. We will be playing against the best team [...]
There may have been no action on the field last week, however, there was still much talk off it. We can thank the release of Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s autobiography for this; it hit the shelves on November 11. Before being published, AC Milan supporters and football fans in general were impatiently waiting for the release date. [...]
This week has seen some scary rumours emerge. First it was reported that the club had revived its interest in Juventus striker Amauri. Then Lazio’s new signing Dijbril Cisse was linked to the club before Carlos Tevez was mentioned as Milan target. But, Adriano Galliani has brushed aside such rumours. Speaking to Sky Sport, he [...]
Following last night’s loss to Juventus at their impressive new stadium Milan coach Max Allegri admitted to reporters that his side were ‘second best’ and that Juve ‘deserved it’. The former Cagliari tactician was spot on with these comments. However, he veered astray when he added, “there’s nothing worrying at all. We’d played well in [...]
