It also makes me think about how their season tickets work. I wonder if you can only buy them in one half for each team? It won’t matter much when they don’t play each other but do you make like 20k people lose their seat during a derby of all matches?

The fuck?

Surely you realise that the designated home team just gets home advantage?

I wouldn’t mind one of these Milan teams playing us in a semi of the champions league like.

 

Would not even have crossed my mind looking at the difference between these two teams and the game last night. Last nights teams were miles above these two in overall quality

We would pump tonight’s version of AC, without a doubt. Our midfield would run riot

There’s still a home team in every derby.

I know. They've both got different ends of the stadium in Italy anyway so its not even as compliacted as Palace v Wimbledon at Selhurst was. When one's at home they get the home dressing room and the other teams allocation is in their 'Gallowgate'.

 

Still don't get it, every stadium has three dressing rooms for the teams and refs.

Considering the teams are full of PL flops and has beens is it any surprise they’re not as good City or Madrid?

Both just sell home season tickets for each team. Both average 70k+ this season and that's their own fans. The away derby fixture is just like a normal away fixture so you don't have a season ticket for that game.

 

For the derby there is a designated away end like in this game - usually just the upper tier of the curva (about 7k).

A;ways think that DiMarco looks decent for Inter and Italy whenever I've seen him

 

Good player but only a wing back - never solid enough to be an orthodox left back at club level I don't think.

Milan are a weird team like. Even within this season they've flipped from being a defensive shambles to then putting together runs of ridiculously solid defensive performances (1 goal conceded in 4 games Vs Spurs and Napoli to get here).

 

They do massively rely on their two best players in Maignan and Leao, the latter of which is a big miss tonight. But I said when they did a number in Napoli it was a huge loss for the competition and it feels like this semi is proving it the case (as much as I'm thoroughly enjoying the overall spectacle and atmosphere).

Genuinely think we could do either of these two. The quality has been so poor.

Both of these sides have a lower position in the table to NUFC in an inferior league, it is not really a surprise that they are poor. :lol: Serie A is poor this year outside of Napoli, tbh, but these two have had luck with the draw and strong performances when it has counted.
