Milan in Crisis again?

Milan have once again failed to win another Serie A match this season after drawing 1-1 to Parma. Their first and only came on the opening day of the campaign where Milan showed Genoa what it's like to play in the top league by beating them 3-0. After that impressive win, many where expecting the rossoneri to make a run for the scudetto but all dreams were washed away after they had claimed 3 points out of a possible 9: not acceptable for the European Champions. The Scudetto dreams seem to be slipping away, while the Champions League is still looking possible after their impressive win against Benfica.

The beginning of last season saw Milan in the same situation: they were drawing games they should have easily won, and they lost unnecessary games. Milan are yet to loose this season, but it is still early days and with a tough game in Palermo next week Milan definitely need to sought out their problems.

Their are two players that are struggling psychologically and that is Dida and Gilardino. Both have been recently booed by their own fans that have resulted in them playing even worse. Dida, has made some really bad howlers over the past few weeks that saw Milan concede soft goals while, Gila has been misfiring due to lack of confidence.

The defense has been leakier than usual, with Maldini out, a lot of the players seem to be unsure how they should fill his shoes. Kaladze hasn't been his usual solid self, why Bonera has only stepped in for one game, his first in a while.

The midfield is still the same bunch of players but when one of the starting players are taken out they seem to be a bit lost. Kaka hasn't been able to find as much space as he had last season while he is still struggling with his knee problem.

Upfront is a huge problem, with Milan creating many chances but not being able to put them away. In the league they have scored 6 goals and conceded 3. The forwards are yet to score a goal in Serie A, and it looks like they seem to be waiting more for Ronaldo's return than scoring.

A striker crisis in once again happening, and it just goes to show that Milan should have bought another forward this summer. Pato is a long way away until he is legible to play in Serie A, while Ronaldo is way too injury prone to leave it all on him.

Carlo needs to figure out the problems as it is a long campaign, with too many trophies at stake for the rossoneri. Maldini wanted his fans back singing at the San Siro and he got his wish, but now Milan must give the fans their wish.... to win games.

Do you think that Milan are going through a crisis once again?

Milan haven't been in a real crisis for over 20 years.

Were still only 4 points behind the top of the table.

Form is temporary, class is permanent.

Milan have class and im sure they'll click soon, once Ronaldo returns we'll be fine and come January well charge home with Pato.

In italy a crisis is after lossing one or two games. They are always quick to call it a crisis. At the begining of last season we went through a mini-crisis and hopefully we don't go through it again.

The team has already been together for years Emerson is the only new one so the team should be clicking all the time.

Anyway FORZA MILAN for tomorrows game
