Milan suffer Pirlo blow

Tuesday 16 September, 2008

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Things are going from bad to worse for Milan as key midfielder Andrea Pirlo has picked up an injury.

It has been a grim start to the season for the Rossoneri and Coach Carlo Ancelotti is under huge pressure after two defeats from the first two Serie A outings.

And now it looks like Milan will have to do without Azzurri international Pirlo for some crucial games.

A statement from the club's doctors states that: “Pirlo has a torn muscle in his right thigh and will undergo further tests on Friday.”

Pirlo will now miss the Diavolo's opening UEFA Cup challenge against Swiss side FC Zurich and could be out for as long as a month.

The news will come as a further blow to Ancelotti, who survived a two-hour crisis meeting with Vice-President Adriano Galliani yesterday.

Milan fans must believe that this year aint their's
bad news just cant stop comin

Yeah everything is going worse!!!Bad start , Bad news but we still have faith in our team's ability.I think we can overcome all these problems . Milan have always been in these hard situations , may be they weren't that hard like this one but Im sure we can overcome this.

well good luck on overcomin ur problems
maybe a UEFA Cup spot will be an achievement for u guys considerin the current circumstances.

You know what? I actually like your talking trash, because when we win the scudetto at the end of the season, it's gonna be that much more impressive.
