ACL tear means he's definitely out of the Euro's right? What a shame, Italy's biggest threat from midfield.

Shame about Zaniolo. Great young player that I would have loved to see at Juventus and for Italy at the Euros.

Shame for Demiral. After Chiellini even Demiral .... he was kicking asses since he started playing.
All for a stupid landing and we'll see him next season
Was eager to see the duo De Ligt-Demiral because De Ligt natural position is the one covered by Bonucci

I would give up all our central attacking midfielders except Pogba for a year of Zaniolo.

You don't rate him? He can be maddening at times but he's so good. Those 2 runs vs Juve were the best part of the game.
I mean he looks decent but i dont see anything special. In the end he'll just be another Morfeo/Aquilani

Lazio score 5 and, amazingly, Alberto didn't register a single assist!

A bit late but that scooped pass from Castrovilli deserved to be an assist. Beautiful scoop!

Thanks @GifLord :lol:

Reminds me of my favourite assist of all time - Scholes' scoop against AC Milan:

It's fecking staggering how much of a gap there is in technical ability between Ibra and other Milan players, bar perhaps Theo. Everything he does is with one touch, sublime first touch, nothing bouncing off, good passing. They look like a Serie C team compared with him.

Ac Milan simply don't press centrally. Udinese have free reign to run through their midfield.

Leao at least has the beating of their RB but his crossing is poor, that's been their main attacking outlet in the first half anyway.

Very entertaining. A lot of activity in both ends. But also two teams who are very sloppy on the ball. Especially Milan. So many good posibillities to counter ruined due to poor decisions and lack of technical ability.

AC Milan 3-2 Udinese.


Theo with a banger:


And Rebic makes 3-2 in the last minute


Very entertaining 2nd half. Goals aside, both teams created several chances to score (especially Udinese that missed three 1 on 1 and a sitter).

I need a cigarette after that second half :lol:

Fun stuff, udinese deserved at least a point. Ibra is less mobile than a lamppost but his physicality and technique are still too much for italian defences

Theo Hernandez (LB) is Milan's top scorer and joint top on assists this season :nervous:

There's a parralel universe somewhere where the Glazers never buy United and we never sell Ronaldo.

Important win for Juve that as that game wasn't easy at all. 4 points gap gives Inter a chance to start losing the plot.

Juve were awful but Parma couldn't take advantage. Lazio are also in this title race.
