San Siro Stadium
Congrats to la viola for the champion league spot. My heart aches for Milan. That is football, sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, and the important thing is that I will forever love Milan.

I think Milan will take the next season as a revenge and I can assure that Milan will win Seria A and UEFA Champions League for the next one. Let's pray for that.

Great match of Milan, man, but it was too late and they are the ones to blame for losing in Napoli. I agree Nina we must congratulate Fiorentina for fighting until the end. Forza Milan, but it is a sad day even if we won today.
Reply to this
I know, I actually just watched the Milan udinese game because if I watched it live, I would have had a heart attack. Anyhow the boys did well, and cafu got his goodbye goal, inzaghi his goal 100. Maldini was biting his nails in the stands, he looked so nervous. The fans were great though and their banner almost made me cry. It is a sad day, but it is good to see the tifosi behind the team 100%.

You could say the rossoneri did well but it wasn't enough. Anna seems devastated too, i guess it is only Mark celebrating, Suri will be also sad. Man, just unbelievable.
Reply to this
It's not a good day at all, our guys played well but like Anna said on her post the ones to blame are themselves only not Torino. Milan did not play seriously in the beginning of the season for thinking too much in the international competitions and lost easy matches too. Yes, you could say we are behid the team but still is it sad and i can tell Anna is devastated too otherwise she would have been commenting all day.

It is sour note for Milan winning convincingly but Torino did not beat or equalize the score and you guys are now out, so my dream of playing against you is over too. I guess we are going to play with the next stronger one which is Juventus.
Reply to this
Mark we will get yu guys next season just watch!!! man its time to think about next season!
Reply to this
What a luck! But Milan are the only ones to blame not that Torino could not equalize the score. So much to think in casa Milan! Losing precious points in easy match... now they are seeing the price....
In a happy note... glad to see JUVENTUS back where it belongs "in the big scenario"
Reply to this
I'm glad they made it 4-1 nice score! but Anna I kind of disagree with u because Milan did not do that great in the CL which put me down badly, and of course put u and Pietro and all Milan fans down and now losing the Scudetto to not only that but they can't make it to the CL next season
Reply to this
Girl where were you last week? We needed Milan supports around and you disappear don't tell me you were afraid of losing the predictions with me again
I understand you today, i had no humor at all and could not even commented earlier because the pain was unbearable, thanks God Nina and Anna were around to hold tight all of us while our interisti friend Mark within all his right celebrated Inter's victory, i would have done the same.
Forza Milan and well done Kaka, Inzaghi.
Reply to this
Sorry Pietro, I'm a real bad fan really
Reply to this
Milan underestimated the Serie A for doing better in the International area and they did. I have no problem with that, my problem is that Milan put extra determination when playing outside Italy without thinking that in order to be in the big arena where they love to be, they gotta do well in the local league, meaning being among the top 4. There's my problem. Today, i was like Pietro and took time to update the blog because I wasn't in the mood at all, yet I took courage and continue updating because of all of you and the people who contact me through emails. Though, it was hard to concentrate having the heart broken, in Italian you would say "il cuore a pezzi"
Good to see you back and like Pietro says, don't disappear often..though, wish you do well with your studies.
Reply to this
Anna lets all forget this bad season, I know its going to be hard but lets hope our Milan learned from their mistakes, if they do learn from their mistakes than be sure they would make a great comeback next season(its kind of early to think about next season but we have to believe in our Milan) We have a lot to accomplish next season!!!!
Reply to this
yes, I hope it is only a nightmare!!!! I hope Milan learned BIG TIME from this mistake.
I am already set to start the new season with my Milan jersey, my flag, and my red and black heart
Reply to this
I'd like to thank Cafu and Serginho for everything they did for Milan, I wish them luck in their future!
COME ON MILAN WIN THE UEFA CUP!!!
Reply to this
Wow AC Milan out of the champions league! No trophies this season. How safe is Ancelotti's seat? UEFA cup, among clubs like Benfica, Sporting Lisboa, hope Milan breezes through and makes it to the final.
Reply to this
It's a terrible news for Milan fans and for the big clubs because like Mark mentioned, Milan is the club with most international trophies and to be called the best a club has to beat Milan for prestige. I hope Milan make it to the final too....
Reply to this
Monica 08 and Anna not only to the final but win the trophy! please everyone don't give up on Milan, we will make a great comeback!!!

On more cheerful note about Milan, today is andrea pirlo's birthday.happy birthday to our sleepy,yet wonderfull playermaker. I’m counting my blessings with a player like pirlo in our squad who not long ago was on the bench on our rivals inter. Happy birthday andrea !!!
