Milan's Australian goalkeeper Zeljko Kalac took the brunt of the
blame after this past weekends comprehensive 5 – 0 loss to Chelsea,
and though the player believes that some fault is his, he is not
willing to assume sole responsibility for the game.
Spider, as he is affectionately known, has admitted to making the
mistake that lead to the third goal saying, “I went for the ball
with my left, preferring my right and I made a mistake. That kind
of thing has never happened to me.”
Kalac spread out the blame for the other four goals when he said,
“Mistakes happen, thats football,” continuing with, “Besides that
mistake what else could I have done, nothing.” Surely after letting
in five goals in one game, albeit a pre-season friendly, Ancelotti
must be feeling the heat to give Christian Abbiati the number one
jersey this season.
When questioned regarding his fellow goalkeeper at Milan Kalac
said, “He is doing better then me at the moment, but I'm not afraid
of the competition, I'm just concentrated on training and making
saves.”
Kalac concluded with a final comment, “It wouldn't be fair to judge
me based solely on the game in Moscow.” The goalkeeper has a point
- no one is infallible - but one cannot help but wonder many
mistakes Christian Abbiati would have made in his place.
actually its his and his defenders fault for not communcating...
just look at how the defenders play.. make me want to laugh.. don't
want to jump, don't want to run.. jogging like nobody business
