Gattuso's Summer of Change
By chris | May 6th, 2008The big news of the week on the market front has been the less-than-shocking revelation that Mathieu Flamini is leaving the Emirates for Serie A - only mild surprise being it's not for Torino, seemingly his destination, but for big bucks in Milan. Gi ...
A look at what could be a fascinating summer of transfers
By Rob | April 18th, 2008After Sir Alex Ferguson announced today that he intends to 'Stock up' on players over the summer, it struck me this summer could be a real classic one for big transfers. And in my excitement I decided to bring you this insight into the possible moves ...
Palermo v. Juventus: Colantuono's Last Chance, Really This Time... I Swear
By roberto | April 3rd, 2008Tifosi Rosaneri don't tell me, let me guess. Colantuono's got some secret plan to beat us come Sunday. I mean, that's the reason why Zamparini hired him again, right? Well it's either that, or he persuaded your president for another chance afte ...
Exhibitions. Woo. Yay.
By chris | March 26th, 2008Spain 1 - Azzurri 0 It wasn't a good game, it wasn't a bad game. It was just sort of....eh. A performance befitting a meaningless game. No great revelations either, except that maybe kinda sorta perhaps Marco Materazzi isn't starting material anym ...
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 ...
The Weekend In Review
By chris | February 18th, 2008The gap has widened at the top while absolutely nothing else was decided but Milan owned players are cursed. Hooray. Saturday Inter 2 - Livorno 0: Huge surprise, I know. David Suazo turned into David Swayze and scored two goals in four minutes to ma
Saturday Morning Hangover
By Gianfranco | February 2nd, 2008Forgive my brevity, spelling, and other problems with this post. I am tired, and a bit busy but need to relay the news of the day. -Lippi may be the heir to the Carletto throne. The Corriere Dello Sport is reporting that Milan and Carletto will part
I'm Really Upset
By Gianfranco | January 10th, 2008Well I did my best to refrain on commenting on the entire Pato situation assuming that if I just did not talk about it would go away, but alas the offside website has proved a hot bed for Pato musings and I feel like I can no longer continue my silence on
Milan v Juventus: Honors Even
By Martha | December 1st, 2007I suppose Milan supporters will take some heart from this match -- they've once again failed to score at home, true, but after the first 15 minutes they were more or less the equals of a team that at this point is undeniably one of the best in Serie A. Su
The Bitter Brigade, Or: Let's Lock Rino and Ray Ray Up Together
By Martha | November 18th, 2007As everyone has no doubt hear by now, France's resident rabble rouser Raymond Domenech is telling the press that his criticism was the source of the Azzurri motivation yesterday. Which he regrets, really, because he'd much rather his team had played their
GUILTY
By Gianfranco | October 12th, 2007In the biggest case since OJ, Nelson Dida has been found guilty by UEFA for what is being called unsportsmanlike conduct. UEFA has handed down what I consider a lenient two game suspension to the keep that has since fallen out of favor at the club, excep
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 Ambro
What does World Class mean? | Which Premiership Players are World Classs?
By ed | September 10th, 2007There’s a lot of talk about the need to sign “world class” players but how do you define the term? Is world class just another way to describe a player – like “good” or “great”? Or is it a literal term to mean players that are good enough

By Martha | August 22nd, 2007•FIFA's latest rankings came out today and the top five remain unchanged, with Italy third behind Brazil and Argentina and just ahead of fourth-place France and Germany, who remain fifth. The rest of the top ten are: Croatia (!), The Netherlands, Spain
Im back and not all that happy
By Gianfranco | August 10th, 2007My Uniti Della Maglia experience was fantastic; in fact just being at the San Siro was pretty awesome. My expectations for the ceremony were very high and most of them were met, it was very cool to see all the fans in the jerseys in and the players mixed

Wednesday Milan Musings
By Gianfranco | July 26th, 2007Thanks to Martha for sparing me from having to write countless useless words about Kaka’s brother Digao. All I can say is this smells like favoritism at work and if the kid cannot hack it he needs to be shown the door. I do not care whose brother, son
I CANNOT BELIEVE I READ THAT!!!!!
By Gianfranco | July 24th, 2007The official AC Milan website read an article today that I refuse to even link to that page. The article question said that Ricky F-IN Kaka was the face of AC Milan...RICKY F**KIN KAKA!!!!!!! Are they stupid, Paolo Maldini is the face of the franchise a
GHD Round 2: Abel Xavier v Rino Gattuso
By chris | July 13th, 2007Only one match-up today because this one is too important to be vying with another match-up for air time. The poll has been working so we're going to keep it up. 7. Abel Xavier DF LA Galaxy v 2. Gennaro Gattuso CM Milan Xavier: Abel put an
Rino Where are You?
By Gianfranco | July 11th, 2007Rino, if you are reading this post it is time you get off of your vacationg rear and put the most vocal mouth on the team to good use. Being the future captain of the Rossoneri you are respected and listened to so please tell everyone this 'Dinho move is
Why oh Why?
By Gianfranco | July 11th, 2007I think it is nearly impossible to convey my disappointment and anger that goes along with these absurd Ronaldinho to the San Siro rumors. I am fully aware that these rumors have become less and less absurd, but the amount of money that Milan are willing
The Great Hair Debate: Gennaro Gattuso v Lucho Gonzalez
By chris | June 29th, 20072. Gennaro Gattuso CM Milan v 15. Luis ‘Lucho’ Gonzalez CM FC Porto Gattuso: I was very very tempted to make him a one seed due to just one exceedingly awesome picture, but the man has had a career of quality hair styling. The long dark m
Roundup of Rumors and Other Assorted Nonsense
By Martha | June 26th, 2007•Fact: Roma's money guy girl has flown out to Barcelona for a "supper" of negotiations. Multinational rumor (tracked by our own, never-sleeping, Roma-obsessing Chris): Cristian Chivu will be a Barca player by morning. Stay tuned. •Catania just

Rossoneri in Blue, and Yellow
By Gianfranco | June 3rd, 2007The Don fielded four Milanista’s on Saturday it what turned out to be lackluster performance. My Roman amico, Chris, and I had delusions of grandeur for this game against the measly Faroe Islands but they never quite panned out. The Azzurri blew many
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
Throw a little wood on the fire
By Gianfranco | May 29th, 2007The Milan vs. Inter feud wages on with Gattuso calling for a meeting of captains to square things away. I think the language barrier would be a problem seeing that Inter's captain is not from around here. Moratti and company also called for Inter to fie
Second Time Around
By Gianfranco | May 25th, 2007After watching the game for a second time I was able to watch with my nerves rattling my brain and better able to digest the game. Liverpool truly had some class perfomances with Mascherano and Riise truly negating Kaka and Seedorf in the attacking third
Champions League: Morning Roundup
By Martha | May 23rd, 2007First and most importantly, let it be know that, among all of today's Final participants, Jamie Carragher is the only one with the legal right to "drive a herd of sheep through the streets of Bootle." (And no, that's not a Google translate sentence.) Crai
