Got to love the creativity in midfield!:S
2 dmf ?!,mother of god -.-
Not that bad although i rather have Merkel starting but its inevitible that he will be subbed in 2nd half.
At 70th minute we can give Mesbah his debut instead of Anto or if the score isn’t that comforting i expect Ema to be rotated to left while Ses comes in.
Good Luck All !!
Forza Milan !!
Play Seedorf atleast :/ wtf?
Where is merkel n el shaarawy ?
It just novara…damn.
Hope we get the three points!
Where is Masbah?
Argh why not Merkel instead of Ambro :(
I understand that El Shaarawy or Mesbah is not starting but the absence of Merkel does not make any sense.
Sometimes i really dont understand allegri.Ambrosini and van bommel?!
That midfiled would be good only,if we play with 3 strikers,but urby behind the strikers…no no no no
Antonini out – Mesbah in
Ambrosini out- Merkel in
Robinho out – El Sharaawy in.
All Substitutions from 65minutes.
dis coach is way to defensive, watch we will lose dis game even with the 3 mids who r all defencive, i will laugh, montolivo would be a dream signing right now, wat about andre santos from sporting lisbon, young fast and skillfull, chech him out.
max belive in old md,where is mak
Emmanuelson has been pretty much Impresive, his tackling skills and move has been far good. He just lacks productivity, which with time he will work on.
Guysy,you see what i tell you,that mesbah must to prove ,that he deserve play in starting line up.
His wife is heavy with a child
You guys seems to forget Allegri has less options in Midfield. (Aquilani, Flamini, Boateng, Gattuso and Seedorf’s still suffering from temperature.) so he’s trying to make the best use of the resources available right now.
Chill out guys, we are winning this Match comfortably.
really Allegri? 3 defensive mids and Emanuelson at TQ? You have truly lost it. Milan with three defensive mids = 1-1 vs Genoa and 0-3 vs Lecce
i jst hope dis will not be anoda lecce vs milan.God help us.
ugh allegri makes me so mad sometimes. these are the type of games that the younger players need to learn at. why not play el shaarwy and merkel when they played so well against the same team a few days ago. well hopefully they will come in as substitiions if allegri actually makes them.
ambro and antioni…. smh
same, i feel sorry for ibra, he wont get the ball, cause our mid is so creative its unbelievable, i think our mid would be more creativ than barca if we had gattuso in there aswell, gattuso, ambro, mvb, noce, equals creation galore.
Ses cannot start after playing 120min with intensity against novara. Do you want to kill him at only 19yrs of age?
He can’t while ambro and Nocerino can
seems not logical even if he did run more but he is 15 years younger even Merkel
i think Allegri wants to finish the match at the 2nd half
and he wants choices to make subs
Ses cannot start after playing 120min with intensity against novara four days ago. Do you want to kill him at only 19yrs of age?
u mean at ONLY 19 years of age he should have plenty of energy and enthusiasm to play MORE
Thank you Donrodo, only few Notice this. You don’t expect Allegri to play El Sharaawy, Robinho and Ibrahimovic together. If they gas out, who’s gonna replace?
El Sharaawy will be good at 75th minutes.
btw Paloschi scored against Lecce today at 3′
Not like 120minutes every 3days?
Merkel for Ambrosini, Mesbah for Antonini, El Shaarawy for Emanuelson
emanuelson???again???
Paloschi 2x lol
and i doubted him, hope he scores once more tho and score atleast 15+ goals this season because he has being out on loan for awhile and hasmt impressed one bit, well me atleast……….
I agree with you Fyah, he hasn’t impressed me either.
WEll lets hope this is his season
Paloschi is destroying lecce 2 goals for him
Even i wasnt expecting this . Hope allegri knows wat he is doin .
WHY NOT SHAARAWY AND MERKEL???
was wondering the same as they performance last match was elite, but hey allegri is coach and he knows best i hope…..
Yeah, that’s what I thought. Both of them were one of our best player if not the best last match. Sometimes I realy don’t get what does Allegri think. With all due respect to Ambro, both Antonini and he have to play very well cause there are players who deserves more to play than both of them.
lol i understand but i think allegri doesnt want to throw in mesbah like that as he is new, but SeS>Urby and Merkel>Ambro….
Because are playing 120 minuted(i think) and are tired.
I’m dissapointed El Shaarawy didnt start. Why Urby as a trequartisita? Strange decision by Allegri! We need Tevez more than how Tevez needs Milan!
Milan desparately needs a creative player!
Emanuelson is the worst CAM ever!
he’s practically invisible…
robinho,noce and ibra running the show.just bad luck
can anyone give me link for live streaming?
ujkani is on some steroids i think
Ujkani is good, but Caracciolo saved him twice on the goal line.
i just dont get it why El Shaarawy isnt playing. I CONFUSED by Allegri’s choice.
Robinho should be playing behind Ibra and El Shaarawy! Emmanuelson as CAM? wtf?
we should have scored so many!!!but for ujkani…emanuelson has been far from spectacular.shaarawy in emanuelson out at 60min
Well I too agreed Urby has been in decent form lately. But hey, why don’t we try to play him in midfield with Noce and MvB/Ambro and having Shaarawy play as a SS or AMF. We face Novara for god’s sake. We don’t need two DM.
Where are guys who said that is urby good as cam ha ha ha…urby must be sold or be replacement for LB
I agree am not impressed by him, he just has a high work rate, i dont see him as milan quality….
He is average even for a LB, some guys say he did well against inter as LB, but he made a big mistake passing the ball to Snijeder lol.
Allegri will never learn from his mistake… Mesbah should start instead of Antonini… Ambrosini should stop wearing Milan jersey it’s over for him…
Actually Ambrosini is doing very well today, winning almost every tackle he goes into.
Ambrosini and van bommel are OK for now,problem is ujkani lol…no seriously,we play Ok,only urby is underperform…too bad that silva didnt score
My synopsis of the 1st half, Novara’s goalie is saving their behinds right now, Ambrosini + MvB in the midfield is the wrong choice, Emanuelson sucks at CAM and should never be placed there again for the love of god! Other than that Milan are doing good defensively and offensively with Ibra/Robi/Noce.
We dont need a fortune teller to tell us that our problem is a creative midfielder in this game and the wrong guy is given the job. Allegri is diging his grave i believe. Why use a guy who is either a natural left back or left midfielder as Milan’s CAM??? Allegri is killing us
we should get giovinco when others are not trying for him.
btw ambro has been good today…
yay!!!shaarawy is here…all ur wishes have been granted
oooff!!!shaarawy just scored
i mean almost
OOOOOH novara makes Ambro looks fast :)
Wow shaarawy! come on Allegri we need seedorf now!
seedorf in for ambro will change the game
Oooohhh..cmoooon..we need a goal…enough with chances..
