Milan, who host Fiorentina on Saturday, have taken one point from their last two games to renew the almost inevitable speculation about Allegri's future, something he has had to live with throughout the last two seasons.
After his side were held 1-1 at home by Lazio on Wednesday, leaving them 13 points off third spot, Allegri produced the familiar lines Milan fans have become tired of hearing recently.
He complained about injuries, said they performed well, failed to take their chances, lost concentration and made no real mistakes apart from the goal they conceded. And he said they would fight on and do better next time.
"The team played well, created chances and didn't give anything to Lazio," he said. "And after we went ahead we had a couple of situations which we should have made more from.
"We will only get out of this with hard work but, of course, we are getting further away from third place. The teams ahead of us are travelling at an amazing speed and if we carry on like this, it will be impossible to overtake them.

"We must get back to winning... if we play like this, the team has a good chance of getting good results... There are reasons for not getting results but we have had a lot of injuries."
Milan are 10th in the table with only 12 points from 10 games, including a mere three wins.
They need to finish third to earn a place in the Champions League playoff round, something they did by the skin of their teeth last season with a 2-1 win at Siena in their last game. But they already find themselves cast adrift of Juventus, who are currently in third spot.
However they can take comfort from last season, when they recovered to finish third despite starting the season in even more disastrous fashion.
Fiorentina, enjoying another impressive season under coach Vincenzo Montella, are sixth with 18 points and have already beaten Juve 4-2 this season.

Fiorentina are unbeaten in the last two seasons against AC Milan (2W 2D).
Previously, the Rossoneri had beaten the Viola for seven consecutive games in Serie A, without conceding goals in five of those.
Fiorentina won the last two games against AC Milan at the San Siro.
AC Milan have always scored only one goal in each of their last six home games against the Viola.
AC Milan have picked up 12 points after 10 match-days, one more than last season after the same number of games (11).
Massimiliano Allegri‘s side have lost only one of their last 17 home league games (W13 D3).
Fiorentina have lost only two of their last 13 league games between this and the last season, winning eight of these (D3).

WWE Raw : The Shield goes hunting and Kane puts Bryan through hell

Stephanie McMahon called out WWE World Heavyweight Champion Daniel Bryan Something is not sitting right with one of WWE’s principal owners, and it’s the state of affairs surrounding the WWE World Heavyweight Champion, Daniel Bryan. Despite the heartfelt address the “Yes!” Man delivered to the WWE Universe less than an hour earlier, Stephanie McMahon – who’s lately asserted herself as Bryan’s primary front-office foe thanks to Triple H’s preoccupation with The Shield – more or less insinuated Bryan’s injury was proof positive of what she’s been saying all along: That Bryan can’t hang with the “A-plus players” of WWE. Watch: Kane puts Bryan through hell She demanded a face-to-face with the Champion of Champions, but what she got was a glimpse of just how far she’d gone by returning Kane’s mask to him: The former Director of Operations emerged instead of Bryan, dragging the bearded husk of his former tag-team partner and depositing him on the stage Stephanie, who ...

the best and MLB worst players of april 2014

Happy days are here again – it’s time to discuss the best and worst players of the first month of the 2014 MLB season. As usual, there were several standout performers you never expected, and several stars that fell flat. AL Best Hitter of April – Jose Bautista. With all due respect to Mike Trout, who is a better all-around player than Bautista, Toronto’s slugger was in vintage form to start 2014. He hit .293/.467/.598 with eight homers and *30* walks. That’s right – Bautista has already matched or eclipsed the 2013 walk total of Yadier Molina, Chris Johnson, Manny Machado, and Jean Segura. Needless to say, he’s leading the league in that category, and his .304 ISO is third in the American League behind Jose Abreu and Albert Pujols. Yeah…I think his wrist is healthy now. Honorable mentions: Trout, Abreu, Pujols, Matt Joyce, Nelson Cruz AL Worst Hitter of April – Billy Butler. Billy Butler is a designated hitter. He has an .031 ISO thanks to just three doubles and no homers. He has w...
