We were gonna get just as much help as Milan if we were in their situation.

The (only) good thing about this is that Milan were also exposed as a big team that receives tons of favors. All the eyes were solely on Juve, even though for years the other big teams were getting the same help. The media propaganda did its job on us. Finally all the eyes are on some other club, and I like it. Every single football forum I checked is full of angry posters who talk about Milan as cheaters. And this is going on for months now. Even better that the last thing that happened in the season is also connected to "Milan cheating", because people with their short memory would have forgotten everything if Milan failed to qualify for the CL.

Now Milan fans will talk about the episodes that went against them. We've been there, done that. But noone will care. Everyone will talk only about the episodes that went in their favor. Welcome to the club, Milan.

Meh, it has been a well known fact ever since the 70s that they receive favors and are corrupt as fuck. They openly admitted to having paid off the ref in a cup final against Leeds in 1973, got demoted to Serie-B for match fixing in 1981 and during the Berlusconi-era they've been receiving all kinds of favors.

No one has ever cared about that in Italy, opting only to hate Juve instead.

The difference is that teams felt we robbed them of a scudetto with the calls we were getting. Parma, Inter and Milan made a huge fuss about that. With Milan it wasn't the case. But now we finally have a team that feels badly robbed by Milan. Let it happen two more times, to two more teams, and you'll see how things will change.

Massimo Chiesa:

Siena-Milan (arbitro Bergonzi). Nel primo tempo, sullo 0-0, rigore chiesto dai bianconeri per una trattenuta di Ambrosini su Vitiello.
"Ambrosini gli strappa la maglia. Mi domando cosa guardasse Bergonzi, che era lì davanti. In questo caso non si tratta di mancata collaborazione con i collaboratori, perché lui è proprio lì davanti all'azione. Per questo dico che è una decisione inaccettabile, si fa fatica a dire come abbia fatto a non vedere".

All'84' sull'1-0 per il Siena, rigore per il Milan, per un contatto Felipe-Balotelli.
"Un rigore che si poteva dare, anche se il penalty non concesso al Siena è molto più evidente. Se non dai quello ai bianconeri, poi diventa difficile accettare l'assegnazione di quello concesso ai rossoneri".

Siena should have gotten a penalty for a clear pull on Vitiello by Ambrosini. Chiesa said the whole blame is on Bergonzi, as he was right in front of the action.

He said that Milan's penalty could possibly be given, but if the first one to Siena wasn't given, it is much more difficult to understand how Milan's was given.


Chiesa also said that Sampdoria's penalty was good, but the one given/not given to Juve should have definately been a penalty also

So SKY (Di Marzio) are reporting that Napoli flew out to meet Rafa this morning before Chelsea left to go on their post season tour. Two year contract with the option of a third.
I posted this elsewhere today, might happen:

Mazzarri > Inter
Stramaccioni > Italy U21
Benitez > Napoli
Allegri > Roma
Seedorf > Milan

Thoughts?

Italy won't get rid of Mangia, he is doing decently. Strama will remain at Inter, either as first team manager or else as primavera coach again
