HERE is the squad of Milan for tomorrow.
AC Milan face Calcio Catania on Saturday when the clock points 18:00 at Stadio Angelo Massimino for the 30th matchday of the 2011/2012 Serie A season and coach Massimiliano Allegri has named his squad.
Flavio Roma, Thiago Silva, Mark van Bommel, Mathieu Flamini, Rodney Strasser, Pato, Filippo Inzaghi and Antonio Cassano are injured, Djamel Mesbah & Sulley Muntari banned; Alessandro Nesta and Clarence Seedorf have been left out as Allegri wants them rested before the Barcelona game next week in Spain.
Pato to return from the US on Saturday
Silvio returns: Berlusconi officially President again
| Goalkeepers | Defenders | Midfielders | Forwards |
|---|---|---|---|
| Christian Abbiati | Ignazio Abate | Massimo Ambrosini | Stephan El Shaarawy |
| Marco Amelia | Luca Antonini | Alberto Aquilani | Zlatan Ibrahimovic |
| Riccardo Piscitelli | Daniele Bonera | Kevin-Prince Boateng | Maxi Lopez |
| Mattia De Sciglio | Urby Emanuelson | Robinho | |
| Philippe Mexes | Gennaro Gattuso | ||
| Gianluca Zambrotta | Alexander Merkel | ||
| Mario Yepes | Antonio Nocerino |
Great to see merkel back in the squad. Hope he plays the full 90 against catania and can be subbed in @ nou camp
I thought Nesta got injured in the game against Barcelona. Left out due to injury?
where z cdof
Seedorf & Nesta are both well, they are only left out just to rest b’cos of the match against Barca. U know they are old & so can’t endure to play after 3-3 days & also Allegri doesn’t want to risk them
is good to rest nesta for war against barc. fooorzaaa Milan
I hope Allegri field this :
————-Abbiati————
Abate–Bonera–Mexes–Antonini/Zanbrotta
–Aquilani–Ambrosini–Nocerino/Merkel–
——–Emanuelson/Boateng———
—–Elsharawy—-Ibra/Maxi/Robinho.
But I’d prefer Allegri to rest Antonini to play Zambrotta, to rest Nocerino to play Merkel, to rest Boateng to play Emanuelson & to rest Ibra to play either of Robinho or Maxi all because of the upcoming Barca match but Elsharawy should start since it’s likely he will not start against Barca
Abbiati
Abate – Mexes – Bonera – Antonini
Aquilani – Ambrosini – Nocerino
Prince
El Shaarawy – Ibrahimovic
My formation against Catania
Abbiati
Zambro-Mexes-Bonera-Mesbah
Aqua-Nocerino-Urby
Boateng
Maxi-SES
I think this formation is good enough to defeat catania.
Option for 2nd half :
If we already win with 2 goal leading, Merkel for Boateng, Gattuso for Nocerino.
If we not yet win, Ibra for Maxi, Ambro for Nocerino.
Forza Milan
Great to see both Abate and Merkel back 😀 tho it is disappointing that Mvb is injured 🙁 hope he can make it for Barca. My lineup against Catania
—————Abbiati—————-
Abate—–Bonera—–Mexes——Zambro
—————-Ambro—————–
——–Aqua—————-Urby——
—————–Kpb——————
————SES—–Robinho———–
i’d like to rest some guys before barca game but catania are no pushovers, especially at home. we need the 3 points to keep juve at a distance. they play napoli this week and we have a good chance to extend the lead.
why not try merkel for atleast last 20 mins..
We now really need pato,he should start against robinho………….we need goals @ camp nou
Why all this formation?Milan now has like ow many coaches?just chillin its nice of u guyz looking out for milan!
i don’t want to see emanuelson in the champions league !
Am very happy to see Abate and markrel in the squad. I did not like the idea of including Ibra, Kelvin and even Abate who just came from injury in the squad playing agianst Catania. Our match against Barcelona at Camp nou is a crucial one and we need a win or a goal draw to advance to the next stage.
It’s a good idia 2 rest seadop&nesta. Bcos day ar very impotnt players agains bacer. Wlcm back alexandra mikel, i whish bombomel quickly recorvering. Forza milan!!
Abate won’t start the match
abate should be rested for barcelona…zambrotta and mesbah would b more than enough for catania…ibra should start…we should not risk drawing or losing the match…our primary objective is serie a
Catania’s in a pretty good form lately. They tend to play with lots of tenacity; just hope we don’t get anyone injured again. This is quite frustating actually, to face a rising mediocre in between two legs against the best team in the world
FORZA MILAN!
i agree with allegri 1 game at a time and besides serie a is more important than barca on tuesday stretch the lead to 4 points against juve and hope they draw
Catania is a tough nut to crack, but now we have a better depth and i just hope that Gattuso is already reliable in the midfield because we shouldnt risk to play Ambrosini, since Van Bommel haven’t confirm his fitness to be ready vs barca, he’s struggling with his back injury. Aquilani, Merkel, Gattuso could start i think and Emanuelson as trequartista.. KPB might replace him in the 2nd half. i wish MAXI and SeS will score!
