Here is the squad of Milan.
AC Milan face Olympique Lyonnais on Saturday evening when the clock points 20:45 CET / Italy time at Stade de Gerland for a pre-season match up and the Rossoneri coach Sinisa Mihajlovic has named his squad for the tie.
Milan have several absences as Ignazio Abate and Jeremy Menez are recovering from respective injuries, Luiz Adriano only arrived today, Cristian Zapata & Carlos Bacca will only join the squad next week and Michael Agazzi, Michelangelo Albertazzi & Simone Verdi have been left out. Hachim Mastour isn’t part of the first-team squad on the official website and has apparently rejoined the Primavera.
| Goalkeepers | Defenders | Midfielders | Forwards |
|---|---|---|---|
| Christian Abbiati | Alex da Costa | Andrea Bertolacci | Alessio Cerci |
| Gianluigi Donnarumma | Luca Antonelli | Giacomo Bonaventura | Keisuke Honda |
| Diego Lopez | Mattia De Sciglio | Nigel De Jong | Alessandro Matri |
| Davide Calabria | Jose Mauri | M'Baye Niang | |
| Rodrigo Ely | Riccardo Montolivo | Suso | |
| Philippe Mexes | Antonio Nocerino | ||
| Gabriel Paletta | Andrea Poli | ||
| Cristian Zaccardo |
Hmm.. Best 11 for 4312 with this players? Maybe:
—————– Lopez
MDS/Calabria-Paletta-Alex-Antonelli
— Bertolacci – De Jong – Bonaventura
—————- Honda
——— Niang — Suso/Cerci?
I would rather play 4321 cause Niang is only real ST.. And Suso and Cerci can play behind striker… (Not counting Matri as player lol)
I hope to see Ely, Donarumma, Calabria, Suso and other youngster in action as game develops..
Dont fool yourselves, even if it is friendly, score matthers cause of confidence and mental strengh of a team..
you know what i like about this lineup???? there is no montolivo
Well, that is the point hahah he isnt better than all of this.. At least he wasnt last two years…
Agree! I hope to see Jose Mauri, Niang and Suso!
I wanted to see mastour and niang up front with honda as #10
there’s no Mastour.
No

no Menez? so i guess the rumors are true we will sell Menez to Liverpool for 16M. latest reports say we’ll sign Abdenour and will loan him until summer. so we’ll just need Romagnoli or Savic and our solid CB partnership is set. Zapata and Paletta will be good subs. so i guess after we sell Zaccardo, Alex and Albertazzi and Mexes will leave for free next summer our defense once again will be solid. i’m a little bit disappointed by the fact that we’ll not be signing Witsel. still hope SES will get the confidence he needs and will… Read more »
Menez is recovering from his surgery
Well they get paio big Bucks to coach and play so I dont think the bill would have hurt anyone. It’s the bonding they made that was important!
whatever the formation or lineups are i will be watching im sorry that Mastour and Verdi arent playing good luck guys FORZA MILAN
Wow we still need to get rid of players, useless players…
we just start with POLI, alex, cerci, bonaventura, matri, zaccardo, paletta
Paletta is super sub as well as Poli, he’s a very hard worker. Bonaventura one of the best last season. Alex has to leave only because some fans wanted Mexes’s contact extension, Alex is the best CB we have at the moment. i’m neutral about Cerci, if he stays he’ll be sub. so the only 2 useless players you wrote are Zaccardo and Matri. plus you forgot to mention Albertazzi, Agazzi, Mexes.
Poli is along with flamini milans most useless players, they are rugby players, they are ice hockey players, yes they are hard workers, they are lumberjack players. but thats IT. Never thought of why usain bolt didnt become a football player? He would outclass ronaldo in runs, but is football all about making run? Is football a maratoon contest?? If so, yes i would make poli our most importent player, poli can ONLY run around like a headless chicken, if you call him a hard working player. fine. Paletta? lmao, we will make him first choice centerback .. thats why… Read more »
do you know there was a player in Milan, the job was to run…..he doesn’t know how to shoot, how pass or even how to tackle…..but still he became a Legend for Milan n Italy….so shut ur comments….go support other clubs…..
Forza GATTUSO
How dare you even put poli and gattuso in the same thought????
Difference between gattuto and poli is that gattuso could defend, could attack, understood what to do.
Poli??? Like a said a headless chicken that works very very very hard
I’m with Sheva on this one I have tried my absolute best to try and work out what exactly is Poli’s role within the team and for the life of me I can’t other than the fact he runs around chasing shadows He’s a dream to play against in midfield because he hasn’t a clue how to read the game and you’d know that all you have to do is be where Poli is ment to be because he’s never in the right place so you could take a pass and have a lifetime to choose what to do with… Read more »
How can you say Gattuso didn’t know any of those things? When Italy won the world cup he was almost voted player of the tournament only to be piped by Pirlo, now that’s not because he just ran around,
I can run around but I doubt I’ll win world cups!!
I also “kinda” agree with @sheva on this one…its a matter of not settling for mediocrity… If we want to compete with Barca, Madrid, Bayern, Chelsea, and Juve we cant afford to have players like Poli, and yes, even Jack and Paletta in our starting lineup. Everyone else @sheva named I agree should look for employment elsewhere (Alex, only because his age/injuries)… I wouldn’t call Poli useless though, his value is as a versatile high energy sub…but he’s taking a roster spot away from a Mastalli, a Modic, even Cristante in the past…I’d rather use Poli’s spot on the bench… Read more »
You need to stop posting the same shite all the time regardless of the post, you’re achieving nothing
This galianni is the big problem in the milan
Verdi seems to be set to loan , albertazzi & agazzi out .I actually like our team .
See what they do this season and modify it in winter .
El92 has obligated buy out clause for 16M ( if he plays 15 games )
Sheva shut up .
Would have been nicer to bring Mastour in place of Matri just saying
Much much nicer
That kaka goal though
Send matri to primavera and bring mastour lol.. What do you guys think
He cant hang with the primavera bro.
Lol would be better to send him home?
Alex is not better than Mexes! Mexes is a rock at the back and when ever he comes forward he score clasical goal if any of u can remember! Alex is injury prone , he hadly plays 45minute with out hurting himself .. He had cost us to make unwanted sub at first half more than 2 times, let him go back to Brazil .
“Mexes is a rock at the back”….lol
Ive akways liked Mexes, but describing him as a “rock” implies consistency/reliability, which is basically the complete opposite of what Mexes is…smh.
Just play the reserve players the ones who r gonna leave no point playing the ones we r gonna keep assess the player game time n go to
Would sell honda n menez for sneijder n witsel for mids n Ibra will be a replacement for el sharaawy. Alex Zapata zacardo for romagnolgi team is complete
send matri back to juve for free
On another note, Im still hopeful for witsel and romanogli, as for ibra I could care less, rather have thiago silva back in all honesty. Imagine a back line of De Sciglio, Romanogli, T.Silva, Abate, and Diego Lopez! We can only hope
Chelsea are apparently linked to both Witsel and Romagnoli. It will skyrocket both their prices. .Damn prem clubs!
Careless for ibra lol he is better than both Adriano n bacca hahaha Silva ain’t coming bak they won’t sell him ibra is a done deal there just waiting to get di maria n should be good after that so yeah watch
Bacca adriano
Ibra
Witsel de jong bertolacci
Antonelli romagnoli paletta abate
Lopez
Off topic
Guys, it would be awesome if admins could put online chat on this blog.. There are free chats out there, and we could talk more and even during games (many of us are not from Milan, not even Italy so we cant go to games).
What do you think?
There is already forum, but a chat is a good idea…that’s going to be crowded. 😀
I know, I can only imagine ANGRY ITALIAN being banned for caps lock every 5 seconds and watching game and commenting with sheva – that guy will kill us when we compliment Poli for one good pass xD
Hahahahahaha. That dude’s been talking about Bonera for more than a month. Jeez
Like!
Good idea like rosso said. i have not gone to europe once in my life. flying to milan to watch our club playing is one of my dreams. I am a guy from Cuba who lives in Miami, fl
Im from Croatia, next to Italy, but sometimes money is the problem… If you are student, like me, with weekend job, going to san siro is just a dream..
But once, when new stadium will be here, I will definitly grant my wish…
I follow Milan since i was a kid… My gradfather liked the club and from him i got the love for Milan…
Not bad bro good on tha thought you
Comment:Like that ideal pal
is it true that Milan wants to sell mastour
Yea guys AC milan have fans all the way to Fiji in the South Pacific
Am appreciating the work of Sinisa Miha, He knows players that can play his pertains
Comment: forza rosseneri
Ibra. Bacca
Isco
Witsel de jong pastore
Antonelli romagnoli paletta abate
Lopez
den we would have 28mil sitting on the bench in berttolaci and adriano…witsel should only come after we must have sold monty and noccerino…but keep un mind that berlu would neva allow a non italian captain us for a full season except its Ibra
