Gatusso is a mere kitten. Is this team really top of Serie A?

a meerkat..surely?

It's so incomprehensible that Serie A clubs show sooooo much respect to clubs based in England. The Italians should copy La Liga teams when facing them clubs BASED IN ENGLAND FFS!

YOU KNOW the La Liga team will come on top during those encounters unless something freakish occurs like Colina gifting Chelsea the tie or Barcelona hitting the post 5 times at Anfield or Zambrotta gifting the tie to the Mancs or La Armada getting pummeled at La Manche by a sudden storm right before they were gonna whoop some ass.

Them Italians should learn from the Spanish.

Amelia with a Given save off VDV. Good shot though.

Why on earth are 8 times Champions league winner's giving respect to Spurs. I'm not convinced thats the answer.

I think they're giving them respect in the same way we all give respect to Puro's posts.

So, what you're saying Puro is that Milan should be as good as Barcelona, and then they wouldn't look so utterly rubbish at home to an injury-hit Spurs team? Makes sense.

English xeophobia rises again.

I miss Flamini. Technically average, but i'd still like a player like him in our squad. And his passing is fine really.

We absolutely pummelled Barca at Anfield Puro. You seem to be mistaken. It was actually us rattling the woodwork on numerous occasions

Of course we were then lucky to beat Real at the Bernabeu and thrash them at Anfield. If only they had known they could have opened up some whoop ass and won easily



Hushed silence at half time from the crowd. Are Milan fans not disgusted at that woeful performance or is this the norm ?

Maybe the Spurs players should stop hitting them in the head, no?

Bring me Pato please.

I wouldn't be surprised if Milan dominates the second half and wins the game.

To be fair, Milan are missing major key players as well.

Maybe

They'll probably have to take Seedorf off first to do that though. Sad to see such a great player way past what he was.

Obviously a midfield with runners and no creativity will not beat a good team like the Spurs.

Seedorf ain't doing shit, Thiago not used to the DM role(he is a CB after all) but I can't really blame Allegri as he has no-one else. Anyone of Van Bommel, Ambrosini, Pirlo, Cassano or Boateng would have been a starter under normal circumstances, so let's not act as if the Spurs are the only team missing any players.

I'd probably take Seedorf out and bring Pato on, might as well try it cause Seedorf ain't doing jack shit. I'd even give Merkel a run all things considered.

And I have to say that the presence of Antonini scares me shitless; he really is the worse. Give me an old, way past-it Zambrotta over him anyday. Antonini is an accident waiting to happen in every single game.

They should probably all get their arms amputated at half time. Gattuso'd still probably try and claim elbows, mind.

And no Inzaghi to come on and save the day.

Beautiful chip from van der Vaart. Very unlucky not to score from it.

Good header from Yepes at the other end, and a fine save from Gomes.

So unlucky from VDV. So much versatility in his left foot.

Save from Gomes...

Great save

What a save by Gomes!

WC save from Gomes.

Getting greedy now VDV.

Rightly so

A move just dies when it goes to Crouch. They need someone a bit more dynamic now that Milan are taking the game to them.

How the fuck was that not a red card??

Flamini

Disgraceful from Flamini. Should be off for that.

Flamini escapes a red after a two footed dive into Corluka
