Rossoneri roar back

Milan desperately needed a show of strength against high-flying Lazio on Sunday night and boy did they get one. A 4-1 trouncing with some classy goals along the way was just what Berlusconi ordered. There were still some worries at the back but at least the attacking options appeared to have been sorted.

Marco Borriello gives them a new option up front, Kaka's goal was pure quality and little Pato found the net which will boost his confidence. Zambrotta scored an absolute screamer but still not convinced about Ronaldinho. He seems to have turned up for some kind of samba holiday. He must have tried that daft pass where he looks one way and hits the ball the other about 12 times in five minutes.

Elsewhere, Roma bounced back with a win, Juve and Inter kept up their good form and Fiorentina got three vital points against Bologna. It was that man Gilardino again. How he has been reborn since his move away from Milan.

Pirlo's injury forced them to play two strikers against Zurich and Lazio and they won both.

Hope they learnt their lesson and go with two up front for the rest of the year.

I'd like to see milan grind out a few wins, some spectacular goals got them the points against Zurich and Lazio and they can't rely on Zambrotta scoring 40 yarders for the rest of the season.

If Kaka hadn't have scored that ripper at the end it would have been a pretty average game for him. He needs a few more weeks.
