The most consistent team in the league won. It is easy to blame the injuries, I hope we don't do that. And it is childish to blame referee decisions, I would be upset if we do that.

Looking forward to next season.

Well said.

What bugs me is fact our wage bill is 50-60 mil higher.

Are we paying for that much more talent? I'd say no....

I knew Juventus would eventually win the league. I just knew. They were ruthless and played very good and there's that X factor/6th sense. No injuries to trouble them and with great motivator Conte they were more hungrier and finally won Scudetto. Kudos to them!

On the other side let's hope this loss and not so good season will finally open Berlu's eyes. God, how many times have I said that? What Milan needs is both fullbacks, replacement for Binho and Dorf, true fantasista not bully Boa. And new goalkeeper cause Amelia will always be mediocre and Abbiati isn't getting younger. It's hard to be positive now but we have all seen this in Ancelotti era. Sometimes it's milk and honey sometimes it really hurts to see our beloved Milan suffer. But make no mistake. With some decent budget :g:

will once again do magic and Milan will be even stronger. Even now they're the strongest team in Italy but injuries took their toll. Main reason i'm not on forum too much is that feeling of failure and knowing Juventus will win it and all this fuss. Imo it's better to keep it that way at least for some time (autumn??) and stay away from all this drama. Not to mention mercato is coming closer...

FORZA MILAN FINO ALLA MORTE!!!

I honestly dont think any forum in the world will have so many gongrats to a rival.
What a bunch of sluts for fans.
Say they deserve it but to congratulate them is insane.

benjamin · May 7, 2012

With us taking no wins against Napoli, Inter, Jube and Lazio, only 4 points behind. I would say Jube isnt great themselves either.

adriancg · May 7, 2012

What's wrong with congratulating fans. After all is said and done this is a game. You may scream and kick and curse people during games. You can tell someone to fuck off and die during a match.

But in the end it's still a game.

Juve final run is worth of Scudetto.
10 games, 9 wins and 1 draw. 26 goals scored and only 2 conceded. And that including Inter, Napoli, Lazio, Roma... Credit where it's due.

And one more time, the best defensive setup won a championship.

Indeed.. The one thing that always remains constant. If your defense is good, you win titles. And obviously that's not just the defenders. Juventus built a very, very efficient midfield with Pirlo guaranteeing possession and deploying the superbly energetic Marchisio and Vidal to retrieve possession.

The final run apart, any team which goes unbeaten in a season in a top league, is special.

If we blame refs and injuries then that means we have not learnt anything and our motto remains "fine as we are"

Also means we aren't prepared to tackle our problems. Galliani is not dumb, he knows exactly what's wrong with us. But if he blames other factors, that simply means he does not have the authority to tackle the actual problems right now - And he's just trying to get the gullible fans on board the conspiracy train.

Agreed.

Anyway, they deserved it. Decisions on their favour or not, weak Milan or not, they won it, and that's the only thing that matters, since April they took things to another level too (sadly around the time we lost our tempo, oh well not crying over spilled milk). Sucks but, c'est la vie.

Ash · May 7, 2012

Well it sucks for us then that the Curva Sud is so gullible

They think Galliani walks on water

idiots need five years of mediocrity in a row to get off their asses and do something about it

But they are very quick when it comes to insulting club legends :proud:

Ashish · May 7, 2012

They were more clutch than us ... how did this happen :fp:

fucking leeches ..

Zlatan is not same after cl music .. lets protect him and lets not list him in cl next year

Lol look at those fucking Jube wankers, posting 30 all over the place. even on their official website.

Well as long as they don't post here.. :g:

Well, it sucks, but it's the football that I grew up watching. Juve used to build teams which are cohesive and start from the back, they're set to defend well and work as unit. They've had a lot of talent too, Del Piero, Baggio, Zidane, Nedved... But not even to these guys they used to give roles "above" the system.

Milan instead love crazy talented forwards and golden letters way too much and that tend to work against the system sometimes, specially when there's no money to buy top plebs to the mid/defense.

It says a lot about the culture of the clubs that this season we have 4 or 5 more talented forwards than Vucinic.

And this difference in culture is exactly why we are a CL-winning club while they are a league-winning club.

Just had a look @ uefa club coefficients, Juve are in 42nd place. They'll get a tough draw in the CL

They'll be Pot 3. But the interesting thing next season is that Pot 2 will have plenty of weaker teams. Benfica, Shakhtar, Schalke, Dynamo Kiev etc.. If they get a group with one of these teams, they should be fine.

For interest's sake, there could be a group with Real Madrid (Pot 1), Manchester City (Pot 2), Juventus (Pot 3) and Borussia Dortmund (Pot 4)...

Yes, the league champions of the top 4 leagues in 1 group.

nuttela · May 7, 2012

lol what pot are we in? 2?

Well done Juve. The sad part is, since Barca's game we were never the same..

Fucking cunts. Spoiled our morale, team spirit, togetherness, etc. with their referee's ridiculousness. I mean yes, we lost a step after the Arsenal second leg, but we still looked pretty good up until penalties were gifted to the midget army.

FUCK THEM. FUCK THEM TO DEATH,

MilanNut said:

Lets see how much longer they'll remain undefeated

Further proof that Milan are overloaded up front. Especially considering that Pato's been out for so long. For me, this was the last straw. Time to cash in on him and Binho and invest into the midfield. There are quite a few talented strikers coming up ... and Pato seems to be destined to always be a prospect. Its been 5 years now since we've been waiting for this prospect to come of age ...

We need at least two quality additions to the midfield. Monty and 2 more. Clarence, MVB, Gattuso, Flamoney have to go. Refresh the midfield, get a LB and CB and we should be good to go.

FW: Ibra, Cassano, new Striker, ES
AM: KPB, can we afford another cheaper backup who is better than Urby please?
CM: Noce, Urby, Muntari, Monty, Ambro, new anchor, new creative b2b (ala Clarence of old), Merkel, give some other youth a chance
LB: Starting LB, Didac, Urby
CB: Silva, Mexes, new CB, Nesta, Bonera (depth/utility)
RB: Abate, Sciglio
GK: Abbiatti, Amelia, give youth a chance

Coach: Max.

Lets do this!!!

are you serious. for serie a's sake i want em to go deep - BUT NOT WIN IT

imagine a Juve - Inter CL final. That would be the most fucked up game ever

As long as 2 or less teams between Arsenal, Chelsea, Inter and Atletico qualify for CL, we'll be Pot 1. If 3 or 4 teams qualify between the 4 of them, we'll be Pot 2. We'll know in a week.

Vecchio Ultra · May 7, 2012

This season has been very learnful for me. I realised I hate Juventus far more than Inter. They are the cancer of football and should have been radiated in 2006, as in exist no more. Inter cheated five years, but they just recuperated some of the scudetti the Ladri took from them. We never got ours, we should start some calciopoli shit we should have at least 10 titles more.

Also, starting now, I'm going to stop caring, or try to. I realise I don't enjoy watching Serie A anymore since the late nineties. If I compare the Milan back then it's like comparing a gold bar to a turd. Also my hate vs the other teams, Juventus and Inter in particular has grown more important than my love for Milan.

I enjoy more their defeats than our victories, but I realise that even should they lose every game for the next ten years I won't be satisfied still. My anger is too immense, build up over the years witnessing the cheating.

I'm going to stop care, I have to. yesterday after the derby defeat and scudetto gone, one of my daughters wanted to ask me something and my reaction was : if you don't STFU I'm gonna cut your stupid head off and play football with it. And scariest part is if that she wouldn't have turned around and said one more word I would have likely hit her in the head.

So fuck this shit, I need to stop caring, because all this bullshit is fixed anyway. I need to stop checking the papers, I don't want to see the Ladri's fake third star while Inter and FIGC get analy raped and won't do shit about it.

Dude, reality check. Your daughter, family and other loved ones > Milan. Yes you need to not stop caring, but chill a little.

We threw it away ourselves, against Fiorentina and Bologna. Not to mention last night's disaster. We had a 4 point lead and yet managed to trail by 4 points with one game left. We choked hence we don't deserve to win, simple as
