To me it doesn't seem like the comment contains malice. We had revenge on kebab and now he has revenge on us. I don't like his character but it appears to have found balance.

Acerbi is now the most hated.

I fucking hate Acerbi.

I’m still not sure who is the best and who is the worst out of the Bojan/Suso/Diaz trio

I just don’t understand why would we start Diaz at cam again and Pierre as cb. Repeating same stupid mistake 10th time. Make a new mistake idiots.

Only problem I have with Paolo is abdicating his responsibility completely
That pretty much broke me. Diaz at CAM, Giroud at CF, Messias at RW.

Pioli came into this match HOPING his team from last season could turn things around….

Instead of

Adjusting to effect change.

There was no tactical adjustment IMO. Thiaw alone solidified the defense and Inter didn’t try to **** the shit out of us, but otherwise we just tried the same shit as last week and hoped Leao would make the difference.

Lukaku loan with around 12-15 mil salary. Dzeko 9.2 mil gross salary. That more than the amortization of all new Milan transfers combined! You think mgmt wanted to buy Messias instead of a proper 30-40 mil winger? And what about Gosens 30 mil, Correa 30 mil, Sensi 27 mil, Barella 40 mil? Is Milan mgmt allowed to spend those amounts?
Those players didnt arrive in one season and not corect sums. Kaku s on 1 year, dzeko 2. Those 20m gross s almost what we ll pay origi over 4 year contract. Who s useless.

But financial scudetto s ours while inter s playing finals (europa league 20, now cl), winning cups every year, making us bitch every match. Lets cheer pioli and MM./s

This is inaccurate. Inter clearly have the better attack. It’s not even close. Martinez, Lukaku and Dzeko would all start for us.

They also have a better midfield. It’s delusional to think otherwise.

We have a better GK but their GK is not a scrub either.

You can argue our defense is better but again not by much. And some might even argue we’re not better in defense.

Inter is the better team on paper and on the pitch. They beat us 3 times this year. We couldn’t even get 1 goal in those 3 games. It’s not debatable.

Better team won. We need to focus on ourselves and move forward. Many lessons learned from these two games. Now it’s on the management to fix things.

We did well to reach the SF of the CL. But not qualifying for the CL next year will make this season a failure. The faster the coach can get this team to focus on the remaining 3 games the better.
+1000

Not sure what people who deny this plain truth are smoking but whatever it is, it surely isn’t good for them

This really has been a very sad season for me at least. Like watching your house burn down and you don’t have the powers to put out the fire.

Oh well forza milan always!

Pioli was more like a coach that can make a solid team out of mediocre players, more like a caretaker.
But if hes sitting for too long on the same team, you clearly see his shortcomings
He’s certainly not a coach for the big stage.
He did well last season, still dont know how he did it though.
But its time to sack him now, should be already few months ago.
He saved his job only because we were still playing cl
ibrahimovic imo had a lot to do with it

Now that the world is falling apart I’ll say I have always hated the 4231, fucking lame formation.

1 line striker is boring as fuck, I watched a match featuring Gilardino and Inzaghi up top the other night and it was miles better than watching Giroud miss every holdup play.

You could argue this but I don’t think any of Inter players are on the level of Leao/Theo/Maignan. Their midfield is undoubtedly better but I definitely think our defence, especially our keeper and our fullbacks are superior. Tomori/Kalulu were monsters last seasons.

Attack wise Leao is much better than Martinez. Even if Giroud is worse than Dzeko, the Leao/Giroud combo is clear to me than those 2. We saw it especially when both were firing at the start of the season. Bennacer at CAM was also doing okay.

I really think the main difference in the derby was Inzaghi outcoaching Pioli with ease, much superior tactics.

I agree on your end point though, Inter were better team in both legs, we have to take the L and see what we can do to improve our team.

Predictable. They will use this to pacify our pitiful fanbase. Classic carrot and stick tactic since the summer of 2012.
I mean, just three weeks ago people were laughing at the idea that we’d renew him. The usual culprits. Now that he’s signing, it’s a gimmick? He is important to us. When we all regain our composure in a couple of days, this will be one of the high points of the season.

Exceptional job in keeping our core intact.

They're not going to invest this summer. There might be another 20-30m signing and the rest will be to plug the holes. People wanted this team to follow Liverpool's trajectory and this was the year to do so. With proper investments in the summer and winter, we could have fought for another league title and be in the CL final. Unfortunately this year could be a step back if we don't reach CL. They didn't invest last summer and they certainly won't this one.
Was always clear to me most they were ever going to invest is a 19-20 type of window and then try to sustain like they did last 2 seasons. Even that window, we chose to go for alternatives when we entered bidding war.

To me, it doesn’t scream like we are looking to contend with the big boys but rather making the team attractive for future buyers. Now, I still see the improvements as net positive but once again I don’t see any resemblance of a so-called plan to dominate CL in 3-5 years.

Suning taking Inter to CL final. And Red Shit getting Milan the accounting Scudetto!
Excuse me, we successfully defended the “accounting scudetto”

So that’s Accounting Scudetti or Scudettos :o

All I want now is to qualify for CL and Inter to lose in Istanbul. Then a much needed time off

Inter can’t win CL, for my health and wellbeing

Always brother. Process this defeat. This is also part of being a fan. We won 2 Euroderbies against them. They have 1. Can’t win them all.

Nah man let’s not go there.

This renewal is huge.

Credit where credit is due, maldini deserve this for Leao.

You can have many issues with our market this season etc, but renewing Leao is huge and that should be praised

Destroyed him, because Suning lets Marotta spend much more on the Inter squad?? It's more like Suning destroyed Red Shit!
Nah, if you know your budget constraints going all in for CdK is hella risky.

And the result blew up in our faces. No way Paolo escapes blame for this one
