Portsmouth v Milan

[Aza]

Great game. Portsmouth were all over them for nearly all the game bar the start of the 2nd half and a spell in the 1st half, and were really unlucky to loose in the end. Milan/Inzaghi had a couple of good chances in the 1st half but when you can bring on Seedorf, Ronaldinho and Pato as your 2nd half subs then it wasn't a surprise when they pulled a draw out of the hat.

They didn't lose

I'm pretty sure Milan are close to full strength actually mate. In fact:

Dida, Zambrotta, Favalli, Senderos, Antonini, Gattuso, Emerson, Flamini, Kaka, Inzaghi, Shevchenko.

Subs: Kalac, Kaladze, Alexandre Pato, Seedorf, Pirlo, Bonera, Ronaldinho.

Pretty strong side from Milan and Pompey are all over them at the moment.

To be fair, Seedorf, Ronaldinho and Pirlo and certain starters and I wonder where Ambrosini, Nesta and Maldini are? But Milan need to replace so many players, Sheva is not good enough anymore, Senderos never was, I think Favalli is past it (can't judge though), Inzaghi is also getting older along with Emerson, Zambrotta and Seedorf.

Nesta is injured long term isn't he? Kaladze has been playing CB I think and Pato has not lived up to his bill yet.

Milan have a lot to do IMO.

Who is this Antonini? Is he good?

Hate saying it, but Maldini's past it now. Ambrosini isnt a regular 1st teamer now either.

Pirlo, Pato and Ronaldinho would normally play, yeah. Not sure about Seedorf, not sure where he'd fit in with Flamini, Pirlo, Emerson and Kaka in the side.

Ronaldinho probably took Seedorfs place but I think this squad is in serious disarray at the moment. They need a new striker IMO and three or four new defenders. The striker should preferably be someone like Drogba, who can hold the ball up and pass it as well. What is their first choice defence these days?

[Craig_H]

Not sure to be honest. I think it depends on who's taken their Sanatogen that day.

Very much so, like the Italian league in general they are over-rated, they have some good players but an average squad with a lot of players past it.
