Milan 1 - Atalanta 2
By Gianfranco | March 30th, 2008Today's game was pretty much summed up with one substitution. You are down 2-nil and remove an "attacking" fullback and put in Brocchi. Folks, welcome to rock bottom... There really is almost no good to be said about todays performance. E ...
Azzurri v Spain Mini-Preview
By chris | March 25th, 2008Basically, nothing is going to be decided today (or tomorrow, depending on where you are). Fringe guys could up their probability of being selected again the next time around, or vice-versa, but there's still too much time between now and April 7th f ...
Champions League: Milan, Lazio Back in Action
By Martha | November 28th, 2007Like Roma and Inter yesterday, Milan go into their match in Lisbon today knowing that three points will assure them a spot in the knockout round, no matter how the Celtic-Shakhtar match ends. Benfica, meanwhile, will be desperate for a win, knowing it's t
Monday New Roundup As We Ride the Zampa Crazy Train
By Martha | November 26th, 2007•Manuela Prandelli, the wife of Fiorentina manager Cesare Prandelli, died this morning after a long illness. I'm trying to resist the old chestnut about it putting everything in perspective but it's sort of undeniable -- it's awfully hard to care about
Azzurri: Totally Not Playing For a Tie, So Shut Up Already
By Martha | November 14th, 2007[All posts related to the death of Gabriele Sandri and its aftermath are collected here. The most recent is on top, and this one is being updated throughout the day as news develops.] Just like his (temporary) boss Roberto Donadoni insisted earlier thi
Monday Milan Musings
By Gianfranco | November 6th, 2007Well on the eve of the Rossoneri’s trip to Shakhtar I am very tempted to head over to bwin.com and throw some cash down on this game, why? Well if you look at the last few results who wouldn’t? Milan 0 Empoli 1 Milan 3 Shakhtar 1 Milan 0 Roma 1
Monday Milan Musings, a second look
By Gianfranco | October 8th, 2007Well after a win like yesterday’s it easy to forget all the problems that the Rossoneri really have, now that I have been able to watch the game again I want to raise a few points and see what everyone thinks about them. 1. I really think Ambroâ€
Lazio 1 - Milan 5
By Gianfranco | October 8th, 2007Well, well, well...I have to admit I have been a reclusive hermit since Milan's loss to Celtic midweek. Even one of the boys on the team I coached asked wear my Milan hat was, before I snapped angrily at him and made him run laps. In fact I had even com
MILAN 1- VIOLA 1, Super Cup Hangover

Azzurri Time
By Gianfranco | June 1st, 2007I have to admit that when the Azzurri play I tend to get a little excited since they are world champs and all. I also like to see when plenty of Rosoneri are on the squad as well. I really hope that Ambrosini can get some playing time this game, but is
You can take your scudetto...
By Gianfranco | May 27th, 2007Insert whatever you want there, but those few words that Massimo Ambrosini help up on a sign at the Champions League parade has sparked a bit of a quarrel between the two Milan's. I love a good rivalry on the pitch, but great rivalries have to spill over
Milan v Sampdoria: So Close
By Martha | February 25th, 2007Picture this: You're an 18-year-old American, signed from the New York Red Bulls just six weeks ago to join Sampdoria's youth team. Almost immediately, you're training with the first team, a regular on the bench for Serie A games, and even seeing your fir
