    I suppose I see where you're coming from on Ronaldinho, but I don't think he was as good as you say. The skills were certainly there, but I thought more often, especially as the game moved on, than not he was slowing up play. At the end of the match, he was staying 20 meters from the area, firing crosses in. The creative flair he had at the beginning of the match was gone.

    Part of that is a lack of chemistry with his teammates, I think. That lack of chemistry was only made worse my Ancelotti's substitutions. I don't Sheva did well at all. Pato had to be deployed wide right because Sheva was already in by the time the Brazilian was brought on. That didn't work. When Ancelotti needed more firepower, all he had left was Emerson?

    And it was against Bologna. Not a good start, at all. Given how much Ronaldinho wanted the ball, I wonder whether he and Kaka are going to work together. Will Ronaldinho acquiesce to Kaka in the last 20 minutes of a match when Milan's chasing a goal?
