Strong words, far cry from the presser before the Torino game. Let’s hope the spirit translates to the field as well.

Forza Rino and the boys.

Atalanta won. We won't be in the CL next season. It is over...

Definitely better words. He sounds way more confident than in that pre-match-conference against Torino, let alone the post-match-interview. I hope to be proven wrong when I predict a draw tomorrow. But we'll see... Forza Milan anyway and always!

We have to win all 4 and if Atalanta win more than 1 it's basically over.

This match is probably the hardest. Montella is tanking Fiorentina, they got like 0 wins in 5 games.

I'm going to watch the newest GoT episode tomorrow with two colleagues at eightish. For the first time this season I'm going completely offline to see the game after it's happened. Scary stuff.

Let's hope we demolish Bologna so you missed something good for a change.

Just watch them get their first win against us.

I'm actually curious: How did you calculate that, because it makes no sense?


- if we win all 4, we get 12 points (will be really hard, im aware of that, but its what you wrote as a pre-condition)

- Atalanta is 6 points in front of us, but with 1 more played: so its basically 3 points ahead

- we have the head to head against atalanta

- if atalanta loses just ONE game out of their remaining games, then we'll be ahead of them (if we win all of ours)

So, your comment doesnt really make sense to me ;)

All the Italian papers are reporting the same line-up Sky did yesterday:

Donnarumma; Abate, Musacchio, Zapata, Rodríguez; Kessie, Biglia, Paquetà; Suso, Piatek, Çalhanoglu

Seems Gattuso is basically relying on a great deal more effort being made by Suso. I'm not confident.

Miha is a smart coach, he'll double up on Piatek and Suso and that's really all he has to do to nullify this attack as we've seen so many times before.

Anyway, lets see. Forza Milan!

It's now or never for Milan.

Atalanta or Milan for 4th place. We need a miracle to win the remaining four games and Juve who have nothing to play for to beat an in form Atalanta side.

Forza Milan!

Pride, hopefully they have some. They drew 2 - 2 in the league match, and got railed 3 - 0 in the cup.

And CR7 will still try very hard for top scorer I'm sure.

Dropped because of his lateness to training on Wednesday.

But he has apologised & the whole team has done ritiro, does he really need more punishment? And isn’t coach cutting off his nose to spite his face? And what is Biglia doing there, the way he wound up Kessie that time was far worse, did he get punished for that?

It's a totally ridiculous decision. Punishing all Milan players and fans and further jeopardising the club's position to punish one player who has apologised. :proud:

Not only that but Biglia was really awful in his last appearances since scoring the freekick.

I find it hard to believe we're playing the same 433 again.

Our issues have nothing to do with the formation. It's everything to do with players not doing what they should be doing within that formation.
