I think if you're going to make a list of the things that Rino's lost, the plot has to be closer to the middle than the top. Ranked above it, I'd say he's lost his pace, ability to tackle and pass, his brain, his razor and his usefulness.

Furthermore I have to say that tactically it was a complete shitshow out there from Milan. It's shocking that they were content to essentially start with only 2 midfielders. I think most Spurs fans would tell you that Aaron Lennon is no world beater but given the entire right flank to run free he sure looked like a genius. I can't believe that's the best team in Italy right now; Serie A must be a lot worse than everybody thinks.

Lastly, if Spurs had started with their first choice team healthy (Modric/Bale/Defoe) they would have had 80% possession and won 6-0.

Seedorf is about to turn 35 and Rino is 33. Enough said.
