This match kicked off at 3:30am for me. I have had very
little sleep. But one doesn’t need to have much sleep to see how poorly the
team played, even at that hour. With new injury worries, the result is the
least of my concerns. I am more concerned as to what has happened to my team.
You had one job, Milan.

Because of sleep deprivation and an epic podcast I’ve now
got to edit for you people, I’m not gonna use my real good English and make
them fancy paragraphs for you. Instead, I’m gonna just break down the important
facts:
5’ Alex got a boot to the face, was subbed off for Bocchetti
in the 8th
40’ Destro scored on a Bonaventura assist, 1-0 Milan. Then he did the infamous pole dance. Not so good.
48’ Rami got a yellow for a tackle
64’ Antonelli got a yellow for a handball
68’ Maccarone scored the equalizer, 1-1
78’ Ex-Milan youth player Verdi got a yellow for a tackle on
Paletta (the birthday boy)
79’ Honda subbed off for Cerci
80’ The birthday boy got a yellow card, he’ll miss the next
match
83’ Diego Lopez got a red card for handling the ball outside
of the box. He’ll miss the next match
84’ Abbiati on for Destro, Milan on 10 men
88’ Paletta pulls up with a thigh injury and can’t continue,
Milan on 9 men
90’+ Bonaventura holding the shoulder which was the reason
he just returned from injury

| That's Captain De Boss to you, sir. |
I don’t like the 4-4-2.
I don’t like games at 3:30am.
I don’t like waking up to watch Milan play so poorly.
I don't like Destro's pole dance. Look for poles everywhere to protest.
The only good thing was that De Jong returned, and he was
given the armband.
You had one job, Milan.
This post inspired by nothing. The
vast, emptiness that is nothing (and also coincidentally Milan’s tactics of
late.)
Our next match is
Milan-Cesena

Bring the kids so they can watch Milan play abysmally (not an official
Milan endorsement)
