AyeDubbleYoo Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Gattuso lets it down a bit, like. Yeah, but he has character. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Froggy Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Disagree again to be honest. Gattuso added fantastic balance to that midfield. At the time there were very few enforcers who could have complimented the other three better than he could. Agree with you though Ian. The team as a whole is one of the best I've ever seen. That midfield, Crespo and Shevchenko up front plus Maldini, Nesta, Stam, Cafu and Dida. Ridiculous. I cannot believe they threw away a 3 goal load to Gerrard and co.

Trumpet Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 I don't think he would have taken anybodies midfield position in that Milan side. Seedorf, Kaka, Pirlo and Gattuso. Phenomenal side that was. Still can't believe we beat that amazing side in 2005 with Djimi Traore and Milan Baros starting the final. and then lost to them 2 years later when their team was a lot shittier on paper whereas ours was better. Football eh.... Don't get how Carlo only won 1 Serie A title with the Milan teams he had...will always be a mystery to me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trumpet Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Especially when we're almost certain not to qualify for the world cup. Aren't we in pole position to qualify? You reckon England will get 6 points in their next 2 games? Because I think that's what they'll need seeing Ukraine have Poland at home and then San Marino. Funny thing is, if England come second, they'll likely have a massive slip in FIFA Ranking (due to not being inferior teams) and could risk being unseeded for the play-offs Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said you should do enough to get through I think (which is the kiss of death given my track record for predictions.) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
