yeah, he is nowhere near last season form. plus i believe our attacking option are more than enough. (err, is gourcuff will be back to us or not?)
so its better to strengthen our defense, find replacement for maldini and nesta.
eh wait, nesta also? is he gonna retire too?? (such a big loss!!!)

big game started!!! anyone watching?

16 Zeljko Kalac (G) (G) Gianluigi Buffon 1
19 Giuseppe Favalli (CD-L) (CD-L) Giorgio Chiellini 3
3 Paolo Maldini (CD-R) (CD-R) Nicola Legrottaglie 33
21 Andrea Pirlo (DM) (LB) Paolo De Ceglie 29
15 Gianluca Zambrotta (LB) (RB) Zdenek Grygera 21
84 Mathieu Flamini (RB) (CM-L) Cristiano Zanetti 6
10 Clarence Seedorf (AM) (CM-R) Christian Poulsen 18
23 Massimo Ambrosini (LM) (LM) Marco Marchionni 32
32 David Beckham (RM) (RM) Mauro German Camoranesi 16
9 Filippo Inzaghi (CF-L) (CF-L) Vincenzo Iaquinta 9
22 Kaká (CF-R) (CF-R) Carvalho De Oliveira Amauri 8

all the best!!!
(flamini right back?!)

our future captain has gone...
seems few of us doing hate-b&g campaign...haha. can i join?

so, the replacement for kaka is ronnie? i mean in terms of position...
if that is the case, then how about the formation? still 4321 or revert back to the old 4312?
if it was the latter, i guess we need to buy (using the money got) a great striker to partner with pato upfront, and r80 play just behind them (though i doubt he can be as effective as kaka in that position...) benzema anyone?
or maybe buy defenders to strengthen that department.

isk, there were already 2 (great) players left out of the squad. any rumours about who will come?

my 1st post since, err, quite long time ago!!!
btw, good game in 1st half from us IMO.
now the 2nd half, seems like we only play counter attack...

seems like we finish 2nd in the group, its like 1st time since decades.
need to prepare to meet with other giants, plus playing 2nd leg away (OMG!)
but now we need to focus solely in chassing inter...

haish. all the top 3 didnt win...

nice draw, haha. but unlike previous two encounters with them, this time we play home in the 1st leg. hope we can improve in 2 months time to prepare for this match.

huh?! next game against juve?!!

about juve-milan, i think its known that ferera (their coach) is contributing to juve's recent poor form.
so it sohuld make our job easier not?

erm, is milan ur 2nd fav club?

what a sweet victory against our arch rival!! (though its not really expedcted to be so tight)..

hope we can carry this momentum to chase inter along way till the end of the season. cannot afford to see them winning 4th consecutive title.
plus we can carry this kind of performance as to prepare for UCL at the end of next month. we need to do hattrick against Manu. LOL.

based on report, heard that borriello hav a good match.
so how about playing 4-3-1-2, with r80 behind boriello and pato? or do we have use this formation before?
(erm, how long pato will be sidelined eh?. can he recover before UCL?)

inter draw! XD
now we need to win this game! also next week game!!!

yeah, seems 3 points in our bag. but hopefully they dont get complacent until the final whistle.

wow!! r80 hattrick!!! BRING ON INTER!! hehe

http://goal.com/en/news/2377/top-10/2010/0...for-inter-milan

do u all already know about the origin of giuseppe mezza?
i just knew it after reading this..
hehe.

really frustrated woth the loss..
looks like being the most inform team cant guarantee a win against them.. being backfired by the phrase "form is temporary, class is permanent".

now iirc, it have been years since we last win against them, right?
not only i surprised about the result, but also the fact we played against lesser number of players!!!

now we need to regain our confidence and winning mentality back, with ucl just within a month.

and he turns to be, like saviour/ best player / bring the glory to marseille (i forgot the club).. nice move to let go once being touted as kaka's replacement..

its been like that for the past 2/3 years...

now 3rd in the league.. walaoweh....
since the defeat against inter, seems like we still not recover from it...
erm... manu games is next week am i right? (with they are on hot form!!)

iirc its the other way round, few years back...

we draw!!!



ermm... i miss the match... ( on travel + no tv + damn tired..)
only able to watch the replay this evening (from 40++ minutes onwards..)
heard that we 'control' the match for the first 20-25 minutes..

really disappointed with the lost..
from what i see, defense all are crap...
and we didnt convert our glorious chances into goals... what a waste..
erm... do beckham is in our first team before this... (seems like he didnt do anything special)
also huntelaar..
r80 and pato were superb, though the latter has miss his chance on few occasions...

all in all, there are still 2nd leg to play for...
while it obviously a high mountain to climb, i believe we can do it in OT, with great discipline and well organised teamplay (especially defense!!! )..
remember what we did to bayern in 2007? (though surely man u are different team compared to bayern)
we just need to play our game , regardless how manu approach that game..

(err, where is gattuso, borriello, flamini.., are the latter 2 injured?)

i reckon seedorf to start at OT, maybe replacing huntelaar (though i might be biased since dont see the latter's true ability)
and maybe inzghi to start also (!!!) replacing beckham....(same as above, dont see his impact on team performance)

my suggested formation in OT:

---------------dida---------------
(4 well-disciplined defenders)
beckham---pirlo---ambro-
seedorf--------r80
pato

or:

---------------dida---------------
(4 well-disciplined defenders)
seedorf---pirlo---ambro-
pato--------r80
inzaghi

the 2nd depends on inzaghi fitness to start from the first minute though..
