SERIE A: Juventus - AC Milan (29 Viewers)
- Thread starter Len
- Start date
Alright, here is my talk of the game. I'll start with Milan since they are the clear favourites for the game:
The Milan of current is reaching the heights of its '94 team. They are constantly getting good results and their performances are non-less than championship quality. Their star player of the season without a doubt so far is Kaka, but I don't see him starting against Juventus.
Firstly, he has played a lot games lately and is very tired. Secondly, Rui Costa is a perfect playmaker and can take Kaka's role against Juve for the first half. But in the second half, Kaka will come on for sure. I think Ancellotti will opt to play with Rui because he can pass and control the game for the first half and tire out the Juve players. Then in the second half, Acelloti will bring on Kaka where he will spicen up the attack and score/setup some goals. His pace in the second half will be the cause for Juve's downfall.
Generally, Milan score their goals in the second half, so I wouldn't get too excited if Juventus were leading at half-time. The current Milan side is so balanced and perfected that they are in pole position for both the Serie A and Champions League.
However, don't underestimate Juventus. Lippi knows Milan very well, and the experiences of Buffon, Nedved, Tacchi, Conte, even DI Vaio, might be just enough for Juve to pull off a sloppy win. This is optimistic thinking, so don't take my word for it.
All in all, I believe Juve will win, but I know that they won't. Will be a tough encounter for Juventus and will truly test them. On most previous occasions where we have had games that tested us we failed, ie. Deportivo, Inter, Roma, Lazio etc. So don't be suprised if Juventus loose. We had it comming to us. And don't be surprised if Juventus win, because as Nedved said, our passion and natural instict could be what it takes for Juventus to win.
Juve for Life!

yea, i was thinking the same thing. anyhow, i predict this thread to go more than 100 pages 
yes,he was...
btw,last night i was watching a sports talk show and the guy who was actually presenting it-consider him a hater of italian football-he said that milan is ENCREDIBLY strong,and that has a defence that not even a bee can't cross it......that is a living wall and that no team can beat them etc...etc.....
he also said(and pissed me off soooo much) that the only football player that could stand next to maradonna and pele and become a legent in some year is zidane.that he is amazing and in few years his pictures will cost as much as picaso's cost now...
he was like "zizou is a GOOOD"....
and even though i was VERY upset,he scared me to death about the today's match...
i know it is like 99% we'll lose,but since yesterday i don't believe it anymore......
