Milan travel to Udine to play Udinese, a place and team they can be hit and miss on. Need proof? They’ve won 3 and lost 2 in their last 5 games against them. Needs like neither team has wanted to take home partial points. While Milan absolutely have to have this if they have any […]

Another disastrous start left Milan behind the eight ball. They fought back, one of the good traits they’ve shown under Conceição, but the mere fact that they have to do it at all is a sign that something is amiss. The door is just about shut on salvaging anything in the league this season, with

Well the last league game vs Napoli did not go as planned despite a better second half, but the midweek Coppa Italia match carried over the positive from the Napoli game and Milan drew 1-1 vs the league leaders in the first leg. As has been the case much of this season, who takes the

I should probably start calling these post mortem instead of post match. My god… This isn’t going to be a long one. The wheels have fallen off or are just barely hanging on, either way things do not look good. The regression has been something spectacular and very likely irreversible this season. I’ve been optimistic

With the international break ending in a couple of days for Serie A, I thought now would be a good time to start looking at the run out for the rest of the season. There’s only 9 league games left, folks, and there is a pile up of teams battling for 4th and this will

Are you getting used to this script? I’m starting to…concede first, usually the opponent scoring on their first or second shot of the game, halftime subs, claw back 1 or all 3 points. This hasn’t just been the last 2 games either, but it’s something Milan has been better than everyone else in Serie A

That was not what I was expecting but considering how things have been going, clearly I…and I’m assuming you…will take it! In a not at all guaranteed comeback, Milan keeps their outside chance at the top 4 on life support, their Europa hopes alive, and maybe just maybe help Conceição survive to the summer. But

Before we dive into the match and what to expect, just a few words on Michael Lisi’s retirement. Mike let me know over a month ago he was ready to step away, sharing many of the same things he shared in his farewell post. The part of his post that got to me the most
