Milan Obsession

After qualifying for the Champions League, Ibrahimović retired, Cardinale sacked Maldini and Massara, and everything has fallen apart for Milan. Despite the hopelessness surrounding the club and a Maldini-free future, the transfer market, and the future, new guest Furat joined me to share his origin story and talk about (read: rant) everything happening to us at Milan right now.

On this Episode:

• Milan Origin Story

• End of the Season Milestones

• Saying GodBye to Ibrahimović

• Maldini and Massara Sacked

• Cardinale's Cluelessness

• Uncertain Future

Thank you to Furat for joining me to share his Milan origin story and commiserate about the state of Milan. Follow him on Twitter @ItsFurat or on Instagram FuratAlajmi to support a fellow Milanista.

The last time we met Inter, it was our worst match of the season. Now, we meet in our biggest matches of the season in the Champions League semifinals. To help preview this match, and catch up on all things Milan, I had Boaz join me for this podcast. Boaz was actually at one of the semifinal matches 20 years ago vs. Inter, but we had plenty to talk about for this matchup.

Sometimes things, big things, happen in life that stand in the way of getting things done. Other times, everything just converges and creates the perfect storm. The first reason is why this episode is being published literally a week late. But the second was the point of our whole discussion. Milan have faced a perfect storm this season, and we needed some good luck, as well. To that end, last week, I invited Frankie to talk about everything that has contributed to Milan's bizarre form this season. The good news that one week later, we can see that his good luck is already working...

On this Episode:

• News

• Italy in Europe

• International Duty

This podcast has somehow survived for ten years... barely. And the blog has been around even longer, for twelve years, with over 2500 posts celebrating Milan. To celebrate these shocking accomplishments, I invited two very special guests on the show, my own Massimo and Sofia. They shared their Milan origin stories, we talked about news and recent matches, and then we shared some of my proudest, most epic moments as a Milan mom.

On this Episode:

A special thanks to all of those who have been guests on the podcasts, as well as all of those who listen. My heartfelt thanks, too, for everyone who has contributed to, read, or commented on the blog, as well as all of the amazing people I've met via social media. It has been an incredible twelve years.

And thanks especially to Massimo and Sofia for supporting my Milan obsession all of these years. I am so proud to have the smartest kids in the world and the best Milanisti, too. Forza Milan!

Milan are finally back in the Champions League knockout round facing Tottenham on Tuesday.
