For all the crap he has rightfully gotten I have to give Musah his props today. Possibly a tactical role for him and an important one for matches against the better sides. Brings a good balance against top sides and helps provide cover. Have to wonder if everyone is available if that is how we would have lined up against Napoli as well.
He's a 433 midfielder, it has been talked about endlessly since he came here.

This is the role he was made for.

Offside goal, Diaz header, the chances Vini created. With bad luck could have been a 3:3. Wouldn't have been just in terms of overall performance of course, but that's worth little.
We wasted way more chances. Should have been 5 3 or 6 3
To us

Besides its not our fault brahim is a midget
Midgets can't score with heads generally.

A little bit of squeaky bum time at points but all in all a decent performance.

Nice to see Musah doing what I saw him doing for the US at the WC. Good ball retrieval and covering space and his man.

He's by no way the finished article but this game could really be a turning point in his Milan career.

He surely gets the nod over RLC for the third CM spot!!!

The front three did well, if nothing overly pretty at times.

Mike, fuck yeah!!!

Good win, let's get the guys home safe and rested as much as possible.

Watch us get turned over at the weekend now lol.

Forza Milan x

Okay, so we face the most winningest team in Europe, who are pissed off at the world... And we currently suck ass.

I fully expect a scruffy win for us with Leao stepping up. Pulisic to score also.

1-2 for Milan, let's go boys.

Fuck Gerry, fuck RedTurd, Fonz... Meh.

Go team!!!!

too many great players to list but if pushed all time favorite player: Maldini
The question now is, do we keep the same formation in Italy?
The formation is one aspect, it helps the team function more but the attitude and determination was equally as important. Naturally this exact formation will need adjustments against different opponents just do not alter it to the point where it destabilises the team function.

Morata's woodwork, Leao's header, RLC alone with Lunin, the 2 vs 1 counters. With good luck it could've been 1-6. Wouldn't have been just in terms of overall performance ofc, but that's worth even less.

I wasn’t worried going into this game as I said it’s the smaller teams and the motivation that worries me. I could sit on the bench for these games. Great performance guys apart from Abraham who I thought was laughable in everything he did tonight and what a chance RLC had. These guys didn’t look up to the level

Unreal win. What a performance! And so freaking nice that Leao had his redemption.
