Also Genoa.

However Milan showed when coming up against a team who is in form and puts in effort they looked absolutely shit.

However Milan will win the league there is no doubting that.

What makes Boateng a cock? The Michael Jackson dancing surely doesn't make him a cock, neither does singing the happy birthday song. You guys need to stop hatin'. He's probably an outgoing dude who likes to have fun and raises the spirit in the team.

I would be interested to hear an explanation from the Genoa coach as to why he thought he should set out with a bold line up in Turin and seek to play Juve as equals, but Milan at home are such an enormously overwhelming prospect that Genoa had no option but to put ten men behind the ball and patiently await the inevitable.
I get what you are getting at, tactical nerve and all, but bottom line is, difference in mental blockage is bound to be there when Milan are scudetto champions, and we have been the club that finished 7 two seasons in a row.

I wouldn't blame Genoa for making adjustments.

Milan, as you say, are still a more intimidating prospect than Juve.

However, especially when you factor in home advantage, that's a pretty extreme tactical adjustment to take on Milan.

How did Genoa think they were going to win the game playing like that? They were lucky not to concede five or six, because they let Milan have the ball and didn't even close them down when they had the ball really high up the pitch.

And Milan still looked vulnerable at the back on the rare occasion Genoa actually made them defend a little.

An Aberdeen coach would be chased out of town if he played that negatively at home against one of the Old Firm.

I see you guys still think that the Milan from the first 5-6 rounds - injury plagued, out of shape and tired - is the 'true' Milan.
It's a good thing for Juve that Conte doesn't share this opinion ;)

Baring Cassano, you had a fully fit team against Juventus. Plus your one man team played aswell.

No-one (sensible) is disputing that Milan are a good team - and that they ought to win the title.

The objection is these teams who face Milan in a manner than means they've lost before the game even starts.

Tonight's game always going to finish 1-0 or 2-0 to Milan because Genoa played in a manner that meant they couldn't attack and - unless they were extraordinarily lucky - weren't going to keep a clean sheet.

Chievo did it to a lesser extent last week: they didn't mess up tactically, but their players looked terrified of Milan. They showed so much respect that they all just stood off and watched as Milan did nothing remotely impressive and still score four goals in a half.

Milan are the only team to have looked that hopeless when playing Juve. :p

Really? He is a little try hard Michael Jackson wannabe...everything about KPB screams "Douche" to me. The neck tatts, the diving, the quitting on Ghana as soon as he found a top club...he's just a cunt.
