I've found an article summarising the situation, in Italian unfortunately:

http://www.repubblica.it/2008/12/sp...aldini-contro-curva/maldini-contro-curva.html

It basically says Maldini never really gelled with the fans. Many players meet the ultras, eat a meal together, etc. and maldini never did. In their eyes he wasn't "one of them"

Specifically he gave an unsatisfactory answer (in the eyes of the ultras) when asked to explain the reasons for the Istanbul capitulation (immediately after the event).

He also failed to side with the fans when some of their leaders were arrested in the build-up to Athens 07.

Maldini's comment about yesterday speaks volumes.

"I'm proud not to be one of them"

Never thought it was possible, but maldini has gone up even more in my estimination after reading that - ultras = scum

Marcotti's probably my favourite journalist actually.

My favourite of his was on talksport a few years ago when some cunt like Durham was bigging up Gary Neville before the world cup. Marcotti's response was "no one else in the world knows who Gary Neville is".

Durham went crazy about how great he was blah blah blah.

Marcotti responded that he wasn't in the top 5 right backs in the world, and the guys in the studio knew fuck all basically.

A bit more ranting from Durham...

Marcotti: "who's Italy's right back?" silence.... "who's Spain's right back?".... silence "who's Germany's right back?"... silence "who's Argentain's right back?"... silence.

Embarrassing.

Marcotti's made a few snide remarks about LFC in his time, admittedly mostly during the regime of GH, whom he never rated. He is a good journo though and I wish he was still on TalkSport.

Credit to maldini for that, fuck them the miserable gits and well done 901 top level games over 25 years wow
 
As for Keane, he didn't celebrate any of his his 3 goals V Wolves cos he used to play for them, so I suppose it was the same

Ok, while we are on the subject of "shite fans" lets hear for the (minority) of tossers who booed Robbie Keane during the game yesterday. Learn the fucking Liverpool Way will you. And quickly.

We don't boo ex-players save for one special exception - El Hadji Diouf.

Honestly, I despair of some of the fans we've picked up along the way.
[/quote]

And, as a side note to that - I was quite impressed with the way Robbie celebrated his goal. He never. He probably had every right to make a big deal about it after the way he was treated, but fair play to the bloke.
[/quote]

That's because, despite what some people think, the lad has tremendous respect for the fans and players of Liverpool Football Club. He also made sure he was the first to congratulate Stevie when he was subbed and also spent time with Sami at the end. In fairness when Robbie left the pitch he was given a good ovation by our fans - its always the minority who ruin it.
[/quote]

I know there are a lot of Robbie haters on here, and I know overall he didn't work out for us. But I can't help thinking that if he'd been given the same crack of the whip as someone like Kuyt, then he could of worked out a very special player for us. But hey, it wasn't to be, so good look for next season Robbie, in all games except ones against us.
[/quote]

Without getting into whether or not 27 games was a fair crack of the whip, take a look at what Keane did when he went back to Spurs. 4 goals, 2 of which were penalties.

He's finished at the top level.
 
Hmmm....he did have a bit of a turbulent season Ross. I think it's fair to write off the time he spent with Spurs after rejoining them.

I think it's fair to write him off.
 
I thought that yesterday was so typical of Robbie when he plays for Ireland.

He does absolutely nothing the whole game yet still manages to get on the score sheet, often scoring a vital goal.

Good enough enough for Ireland because we have nothing better but not good enough for Liverpool I think.
 
Cannavaro has been pretty poor over the last couple years. Either way, it's not like he's a legend for Real fans who see players come and go more than any other club I reckon.

Newcastle like behaviour from the Milan fans though - "nobody tells the fans what to do!". Poor.
