Serie A : Juventus vs Milan [April 12th, 2008] (81 Viewers)

[Dostoevsky]

Milan’s 3-2 defeat against Juventus last Saturday left a bitter taste in the mouth for the Diavolo and Seedorf believes the officials have done his team no favours in this campaign.

“I don’t like to talk about referees. It’s even difficult to talk to them because they just say that they call things as they see them,” he said.

“But on Saturday again there were certain episodes that changed the game. The referees have to apply the rules, but they can interpret them as they wish.

“This year Milan have been on the receiving end of too many refereeing errors and it has had a big influence on the season.

“Three or four mistakes is one thing, but there have been almost 10 games with quite serious errors.”

Milan need a strong conclusion to the season to secure Champions League qualification as they failed to take advantage of Fiorentina’s defeat at Inter and remain four points behind.

“We didn’t do our bit, but we can still do it, given yesterday’s results,” Seedorf stressed.

“Against Juventus, the first half was totally Milan, but we still conceded two goals and we have to reflect on that.”

“The scores gave us hope, but also angered us at the same time. We got hope because the other results went our way, but we were frustrated as it was a missed chance to close in on fourth place and that’s the fourth time in a month and a half.”

I don't fault him. Actually, if you read his pre-game comments, it sounded like he had conflicted feelings going into the match -- which is a rarity. That was probably the most respect I've read given to Juve from an ex-player in a long time.

But the guy is fighting for his club to stay alive for a CL spot. I cannot fault a guy for doing that. He's a monkey no matter what.

But I have to say, this match was probably the most character-defining match of our entire season. More even than the recent Inter match. We could have let this one fall through our fingers and hung up the towel down 2-1. But we kept in it and fought back -- thanks in no small part to Alessandro.

I came in here talking some smack last week in the lead up to the game. We lost & I'm man enough to come back and face the music.

IMO we played really good the first half, with the exception that horrible give away by Maldini that lead to the tying goal. It was a gift/mistake that has characterized our team this year. We did the same thing against Roma and lost that game in similar fashion.

I've seen Bonera enough to know that his challange wasn't with the intent to injure. The red card was deserved and he'll do his time. Once we went down to 10 Ancelotti made the mistake that he's make all season, he tries to go in defensive shell. Every time he does this, it back fires, and we get scored on. Gattuso could have been dropped back even more to the defensive line and Pippo should have remained.

Nesta wasn't there and that killed, but you were missing Nedved so we could call it a draw. (although IMO Nesta not being in our line up has more of an impact on our team, than the impact Neved being out causes your team)

It was a good game, and although I think we deserved to come out with the point. To the victor's goes the spoils.

Referees Have Cost Us Dearly, Fumes Seedorf

Milan midfielder Clarance Seedorf has controversially suggested that Milan would not be sweating on a place in the Champions League next season were it not for the perceived ineptitude of Serie A referees.

Milan's aspirations to finish fourth were seriously dented by the 3-2 defeat against Juventus last Saturday, and left many Rossoneri fans cursing the official following a number of debatable decisions that went against them.

“I don’t like to talk about referees. It’s even difficult to talk to them because they just say that they call things as they see them,” he said.

“But on Saturday again there were certain episodes that changed the game. The referees have to apply the rules, but they can interpret them as they wish.

“This year Milan have been on the receiving end of too many refereeing errors and it has had a big influence on the season.

“Three or four mistakes is one thing, but there have been almost 10 games with quite serious errors.”

The Dutch midfielder went on to insist that all is not over for Milan yet, despite the fact that they missed a golden opportunity to take advantage of Fiorentina’s defeat at Inter, and are still four points behind the Viola with just three matches remaining.

“We didn’t do our bit, but we can still do it, given yesterday’s results,” Seedorf stressed.

“Against Juventus, the first half was totally Milan, but we still conceded two goals and we have to reflect on that.

“The scores gave us hope, but also angered us at the same time. We got hope because the other results went our way, but we were frustrated as it was a missed chance to close in on fourth place and that’s the fourth time in a month and a half.”

Seedorf also commented on the rumours tipping Ronaldinho for a blockbuster move to the San Siro in the summer. While he insisted that he was delighted to have the Brazilian superstar on board, he also made clear that he isn't about to give him any special treatment.

“I will be happy if he comes to Milan because he is another great champion,” he added. “I would welcome him. His arrival would give us all a boost.

“When I arrived at Milan from Inter, where I had the No 10 shirt, I didn’t get it because I was behind Manuel Rui Costa,” he recalled.

“Then, when Manuel left, I asked if I could have that number, as it has always been my favourite and I think that goes for everyone.

“But I’m not involved in these discussions and I just hope that the club does what is necessary.

“The Coach and the directors know what is needed and will find players who can make the difference.”

I thought you didn't like goal.com man.

+ it's been posted like 3-4 times already, go study dude. int:






Bonera got 2 games.

 

[Dostoevsky]

I`d give him 2 months.

 

[Mr. Anonymous]

I`d give him 2 months.

Intent is a factor, and I believe it wasn't a malicious challange with the intent to injure. Coupled with the fact that Sissoko was able continued leads me to agree with the red but anything further would probably be unnecessary.

 

[Mr. Anonymous]

Anon, one last question, are you Anon from NXSecure?

No

 

[Seven]

I kind of agree. Bonera is just one stupid fuck.

It was a red car, but I agree there was no intent.

Bonera was off balance from another challenge, which caused him to make a poor tackle.

 

[DrughiZebra]

Seedorf has said that if Ronaldhino comes he has to find a new number.

This guy is a quote a day.

"I will score on Buffon"

"The referee's screwed up"

"Ronaldinho need to find a new number at Milan, 10 is mine"

Laughable. Lets see how fast Milan cuts you when you refuse to give a 100+ million dollar player his number.
