Is Milan Now the Favorite in Serie A?

by Robert on September 1, 2010 · 8 comments

In July, I wrote a post for this site ask­ing AC Milan fans for calm.  The club had been quiet on the trans­fer mar­ket and Sil­vio Berlus­coni had gone pub­lic in say­ing he intended to build his youth acad­emy to help the team.  I said at the time that if the club did not acquire […]

Berlusconi: Ronaldinho remains for life

by Niccolo Conte on July 21, 2010 · 7 comments

AC Milan has had good times and bad times under Sil­vio Berlus­coni. The Ital­ian prime min­is­ter has brought tro­phies and suc­cess to the rossoneri, but he has also dragged Milan into times of lit­tle money and neg­a­tive results. This cur­rent period can’t be described as a pros­per­ous one for AC Milan, old play­ers, a new […]

The Quiet Offseason of A.C. Milan

by Robert on July 19, 2010 · 4 comments

The rumors fly­ing around the Inter­net recently have been focused on the makeup of the 2010–2011 Inter squad.  Will Balotelli move to Man­ches­ter or Lon­don (or Madrid)?  Will Maicon reunite with his for­mer man­ager?  At some point I think every player on the ros­ter has been rumored to move to another club. But what’s interesting […]

How Milan Can Become Great Again

by Mark McAllister on March 15, 2010 · 8 comments

It’s been a per­cu­liar, unpre­dictable sea­son for Milan as the side have endured great lev­els of tor­ment from humil­i­at­ing defeats to the likes of Inter and Man­ches­ter United, and they have found them­selves look­ing des­per­ately blunt on other occa­sions, often with dra­matic late goals sav­ing them from fur­ther embar­rass­ment. Huntelaar’s late dou­ble act at Catania […]

Should Milan Replace Leonardo?

by Robert on February 19, 2010 · 1 comment

Fans of AC Milan have suf­fered through a bad four weeks, begin­ning by los­ing to short-handed rival Inter and most recently suf­fer­ing a dev­as­tat­ing defeat in their Cham­pi­ons League match ver­sus Man­ches­ter United.  This comes the same week that Milan owner Sil­vio Berlus­coni crit­i­cized Leonardo’s man­age­r­ial style and encour­aged him to allow his team to […]

Lessons Learned from Giornata 21

by Robert on January 27, 2010 · 2 comments

A nice quiet week­end in Serie A.  For­tu­nately, there were no matches of inter­est and no con­tro­versy that came out of the matches.  Noth­ing unusual or inter­est­ing at all. Or not.  In a week­end high­lighted by the top two squads fac­ing off, injuries to star play­ers, and an odd mask cel­e­bra­tion, let’s take a moment to […]

For AC Milan in Saturday’s fabled Derby della Madon­nina, Gen­naro Gattuso’s night­mare came true. If not for Inter’s new-look, new-effect attack, poor Cap­tain Rino would be car­ry­ing all respon­si­bil­ity for the unbal­anced result (AC Milan 0:4 Inter). Inter earned three (and per­haps all four) of their strikes, yet more could not have gone wrong in one […]
