a shame Milan won :(
Liverpool was the better side in the first have and didn't deserve that 1-0 at the break. Second half was pretty equal but Inzaghi scores the 2-0. 2-1 from Kuyt was indeed offside. |

At the end of the day Rafa played some tactics. Gerrard should of been in centre midfield from the start. In that free role he was marked out of the game IMO. Liverpool dominated yet Kuyt seemed to be the only player literally surrounded by white shirts.
Pennant tackled quite well and worked his heart out however he tried to dribble the ball like Lennon and Christiano Ronaldo, and made some really passes. In all honesty I think the whole entire midfield got in each others way throughout the majority of the game.
Biggest mistake Rafa didn't play two strikers. He should of done that from the start.

the goal was a gift. it wasnt much of a foul and inzaghi hit it in with his arm.. |
It's a pity such a good player like Kaka turns into the little Brazilian fairy that he really is and makes a meal of normal challenge.

Well Inzaghi is a two bob **** with cleffed lip. He must be gutted Toni kept him out of the Italian first 11 during 2006. Gattuso the little fat should of been red carded too.
However out of the AC Milian team I must say Pirlo impressed me, everyone rants on about Kaka however Pirlo is the playmaker of that team and starts every move top player. |

I think he is making the point it was luck yto be given since he couldn't reall have been any further offside without being off the field of play...
Dont let the fact spoil your bitter rant though!!:haha: |
What I was saying was that his first comment makes it seem that Liverpools goal was so much more lucky than the inzaghi one, which is stupid.
I like the player who got winded by the ball, didn't know Milan took acting classes, he should have crawled off the pitch so play could resume, like Owen did in the world cup when he dislocated his knee.
He got up and when told to walk off the pitch just got up and strolled off. |

| milan are a ing joke, and italian football is the tiest brand in the entire world. didn't deserve the win at all. liverpool dominated that game. not surprising to see a more equal second half, liverpool were tired from actually running and creating chances, rather than standing around with their hands up their arses. |

well that's bollocks. "the fourth official indicates a minimum of three minutes to be added on. 2 and a half minutes in (and another substitution which is 30 seconds, and he blows up. Now I'm not a maths major, but you'd think a german could count to 3 and a half. Obviously not :eek: |
Exactly, and milan even made a substitue during extra time, so there was at least a minute left to play. |

Milan didnt deserve a 7th win.
and that ref.. totally biased. Milan won ALL, ALL their games when this head was ref. |

yeah, he typified his performance by letting the milan boys tell him to book mascherano.
I think rafa struggled. he saw the man utd 2nd leg & expected an onslaught. Mascherano man marked kaka very well, and I can see why he only went with 1 upfront but crouch in europe is a no brainer. he's not allowed to even win a ball so there's no point bringing him on. the milan defence was slow so bellamy would've been a good idea.
Penant got lots of space but didn't do anything with the ball, and finnan seemed injured which is why he came off for arbeloa, to go 3-5-2 but it was too late then. Kewell struggled but he's not played more than 2 games all season, so I wonder why gonzalez wasn't given a go. Liverpool missed having luis garcia or a poacher like fowler, plus pace upfront tbh. Add 2 good wide men to the squad and get rid of crouch who's no good cos of european refs, and add a forward of the quality of owen, eto'o, david villa, Luca Toni & so forth and they might do well. |

| i still think having crouch in from the beginning wouldve done liverpool some good. they needed a striker like him, especially since kaka was so well covered the entire game. they probably couldve gotten a goal in the first half and that wouldve given them that extra bit of confidence and cemented the second half since they were clearly the better team on the pitch |

All you liverpool supporters can't complain use had your turn two years ago,although i think some of the refs calls were lame for both sides. First half was dominated by Liverpool, and 2nd half was evenly poised with Milan just having a bit of fresher legs. If you run all day and make chances and don't convert thats your bad luck, you can't win if you don't convert which I thought Steven Gerrard should've done with that close range shot he had.
If Italian football is so why are they so successful in World cup and European Cups? Who gives a if you think they have crappy style, at the end of the goal in the back of the net count. Entertainment factor is a bonus which PL seems to have but it is not everything!
FORZA MILAN...CAMPIONI D'EUROPA 07 !! |
