The Elusive Mr. X - The Offside - AC Milan blog
acmilan.theoffside.com &bull Jun 3, 2011Have to admit the start of this mercato has left me a little bit annoyed. I mean do Fester and the Milan brass take us for a bunch of children!? What is this mystery game they are playing, dropping hints of possible new players' physical attributes and appearance and expecting us to go on some wild goose chase for the elusive Mr. X.

Milan 0 Tottenham 1 - The Offside - AC Milan blog
acmilan.theoffside.com &bull Feb 17, 2011This one took a while, but a loss always does.

Even as I watched bits and pieces again on the replay, there was little to be proud of and between the Flamini tackle and the Tottenham coaching staff mixing it up with Rino, the only thing I can really feel after this match is embarrassment.
