After
a brief and very reluctant hiatus, the Milan Obsession Podcast is back… maybe. At
least on an “as Elaine can find time to record” basis. So with seven weeks to
catch up on, we tried to summarize the Milan team that is also back… maybe.
With surprise wins, new players, an injury list that would make Allegri blush,
and some experimental tactics, there was plenty to talk about during this
international break. Served up with plenty of skepticism and a dash of that
scarce thing called hope, now we’ll have to wait and see which comeback is more
successful… Milan’s or the podcast’s.

Bringing
back the podcast in style, Pete Acquaviva of the legendary DAI DAI
DAI joined me. Pete is a longtime Milan fan who gives amazing analysis
on his blog, contributes to other blogs and shows, and is also a
great follow on Twitter. This time we chatted about:
• News of the Week: Maldini recognized, Gandini begs, Galliani out
of touch, and Inter suck
• Season to Date: Where we are after the first 6 games
• New Player Focus: We rate and discuss all ten new players
• Injury Roundup: Who’s out and who’s coming back
• International Duty: Which Milan players are representing their
countries
• Tactics: We discuss the 4-2-3-1 vs. the 4-3-3 and Inzaghi’s
tactics so far
• Coming Up: Milan’s upcoming matches
