The last few weeks have been rough for milan fans.

Image trying so desperately to reach the final and failed, then proceed to talk about how embarrassing it could be for a team who did reach in the final.

Biggest cuck energy ever.

We have nothing to lose and there should be no pressure on the boys. Everything is gravy. They should go for it. No sitting back just go for it what happens happens.

Deja Vu 🤞🤞 :


The good omen for fans of Italian sides is that the Italian representatives in the three European Cups 33 years ago, Milan, Juventus and Sampdoria all went on to lift their respective trophies at the end of the season.

Coincidentally, Napoli were the Serie A champions that year and the Partenopei had to wait until this season for their next league title to arrive under Luciano Spalletti, Victor Osimhen, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and co.

For those who say we have no chance , I say go and look at Conte's record with spurs against city.
He beat them 2 out of 3 and the one he lost he was leading 2-0 at ht before the spurs mentality crept in.

Limone in these knockout rounds has for a lot of it setup like Conte does.

Most of city's losses this season comes from sides who play 3-5-2. Brentford also beat them playing this way.

There is hope.

ManCity always played with 4 at the back in those losses though. Before Pep invents 3-2-4-1 and destroys Real Madrid.

Obviously he has seen that pattern too and solves the weaknesses.

We will see. Madrid was playing 4 at the back so don't see how that shows anything about beating a 3-5-2.

City is extremely strong, especially when compared to our current level, but they are not that strong lmao. The most impressive and dominant team I've witnessed in my life so far is still 08-09 Barca. Nothing else's ever come close to that including later years of Pep's Barca, Zidane's Real, MSN Barca and this City obviously. And that Barca team were almost stopped Chelsea, they were stopped a year later by us. This City can definitely be stopped, not probably but possible nevertheless.

It's been over 10 years since Bayern v Chelsea and CL Final is due for another upset, let's do it.

Lukaku coming on is also better just in case the game goes to penalties. Lukaku much better than Dzeko on those.
This is just dumb logic. Haaland will play 90 minutes + and extra 30 if needed. I don’t know why we keep saying Lukaku is better coming off the bench, he played 90 against Empoli, Roma, Sassuolo ( even scored late on) and looked perfectly fine to me.

Our best chance of winning this is to take the lead. For the love of god no Dzeko from the start, we waste 60 minutes of doing fuck all in attack and more than likely be behind by the time Lukaku comes on. So pointless

Lukaku offers nothing against a hard pressing, which is expected to be applied by City from the minute one. Dzeko has a better positioning and ball control + distribution. I also think that 60.min are too much for him, but 45 min will be just perfect.

Milanisti would love to see that kit and us receiving 5 goals.

But City don't know these colours are what makes us mad and we show up . Its in our dna to slap these colours.
We could lose 7-0 against City, we still demolished Milan this season. Who cares what they would love to see, they had their own chance to lose by 5 goals against City, but they aren't good enough.

what's with these pundits on ESPN ?!. They think as if Inter was fucking Burnley or Cremonese. i have never seen football commentary this stupid and biased before. :lol:

have you not watched ESPN....?

I mean they make England sound like fking Brazil + Germany + Argentina + Italy + France. Harry Kane is better than A merged Messi + Ronaldo + Haaland

their World Cup coverage is insane !! Its sucks for me because in the US its ESPN which is so full of British dick in their mouths or Telemundo with Mexicos who are just as bad. They have Uruguayan and Argentinian announcers and are like Mexico is at the same level as both those teams with the same history.... You see the announcers from other countries trying not to laugh

We have to start with Dzeko and hope he can play target man the way he did against Milan and cause some damage in the first hour. Compared to Dzeko, Lukaku seems much better coming off the bench.

If nothing else, I want to avoid a scenario where we're chasing a goal and bring Dzeko on for a midfielder in a 343. That's always looked scuffed as shit.
