Milan’s questionable January transfer campaign
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 [...]
Oh no, not Molinaro
Ever since Paolo Maldini retired in 2009 to the completely undeserving jeers of a certain few ultras – inexplicable this happened to such legend of the club – the left full back position has been a problem area for Milan. The club’s attempts to find the solution have seen one failure after the next, to [...]
Comment: AC Milan 2-0 Siena
The last time Milan entertained Siena before the Tuscans’ visit to the Giuseppe Meazza on Saturday night was on January 17, 2010.

It has to be said, Taye Taiwo’s start to his Milan career has been much like the team’s start to the Serie A season, disappointing to say the least. The Nigerian has started just one match to date and it was not one that showed much promise. Rather, he was a nervous wreck and it [...]
Milan 1 Cesena 0: Three points, thank you Clarence
Milan have finally notched up a win. What a relief. Heading into the game the team was languishing in 16th position after the club’s worst start to a campaign in 14 years. But, with this win over Cesena Max Allegri’s team have leapfrogged to 8th on the table, albeit temporarily. It was not a great [...]
Milan v Udinese Preview: Nothing less than three points will do
Tonight Milan will host high-flying Udinese and nothing less than three points in this match will do. The Champions have started their title defence in dismal fashion. They were forced to come back from 2-0 down against Lazio in the opening round while on Sunday they were schooled by an impressive Napoli, who made a [...]
The Great Mr. X deception
Earlier this summer Milan admitted that they had spotted their Mr. X, he was a “1.83m tall, blue and has thick haired midfielder”. This vague description sparked many rumours of players that would fit this profile, from Kaka to Alex Witsel. In the end, however, the tale of the mysterious Mr. X proved a great [...]
