Abate's still vulnerable defensively, in comparison to the others. Still some question marks over him since he's a converted winger.

I'd like to see the Palermo full-back pairing of Cassani and Balzaretti used more often. They've been two of the best full-backs in Serie A in the last couple of seasons.
 
Wow , a second string Xi pulls it off at Olimipiyskiy . Golden days awaiting the Azurris . Rossi is one hell of a talent .
 
Again Milan scoring early in the first half against Inter . Darn it , thought it was at 1:15 AM ISt and missed the entire first half :facepalm
 
It was somewhat an entertaining Milan derby game. They played well and I thought Seedorf was pretty good in the game too.

And Inter's defending really left a lot to be desired. Milan could have easily scored more if it weren't Robinho wasting some of the chances.

It probably wouldn't surprise me if Schalke knock them out of the CL.
 
Yeh without Lucio Inter looked very shaky defensively. Ranocchia is hugely talented but doesn't have that understanding with his partner and there was a lack of organisation at the back.

Inter were way too open. They allowed Milan to play, and Milan played very well. Pato was fantastic, him and Robinho worked excellently together.
 
Tomorrow there is another big match: Napoli vs Lazio. If Napoli they will be second in the league.

Another good match to look to is AS Roma vs Juventus.

I am expecting a lot of goals in the match of Lecce vs Udinese. It's the best attack against the worse defence (in terms of goals).
 
Inter have declined so much this season & Maicon no longer looks the best right-back in the world. No wonder Alves taken his spot in the national team.
 
That has to be one of the games of the season. Edinson Cavani - take a bow. Just incredible.
 
Sums up a fantastic weekend of football for me with that 2-0 loss of Rome to the Old Lady :facepalm

Auwais do you have Skysports or Setanta sports?
 
I think it's safe to say that Inter are out of the title race. 8 points behind with 5 games remaining. Looks like Napoli are the main challenger right now but I'm not sure whether they can last the distance or not.
 
Rome and Liverpool just seem to be a band of brothers . Almost everything in them is similar this season , 6th in the league , when Rome lose , Liverpol lose , when Rome win , Liverpool win (75% of the times) . And yesterday's defeat is so unexcusable :facepalm
