Erm guys...the new team page. It's only got Oduamadi and Strasser from the youth sector. I thought Albertazzi would be in as well. (IMG: style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

Yeah. Either that or he's already injured. (IMG: style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Max Allegri looks like he's got some moves. So far they've been focusing on the physical stuff..getting players back into shape and all that. I'm more curious to see what all the tactical training will involve.

Too bad Pirlo won't be there, I'm really curious as to how Allegri will play him and whether he'll be playing both Pirlo and Seedorf in the same line up

QUOTE (d'Arc.LP @ Jul 25 2010, 05:13 PM)  Nah they're just not fit enough. This is our first game.
Amelia is warming up. Still doesn't excuse some of the ametourish play. Our 4 defenders with some of them being direct backups might I add are all terrible and are making mistakes that a school kid wouldn't do. Oddo can't run, can't pass, can't defend, can't cross... The only thing he seems capable of doing is pushing his hair back behind his ears. If one of our regular fullbacks gets injured we're in so much sh!t!!!!

QUOTE (samira @ Jul 25 2010, 05:27 PM)  why did they take out Papastathopoulos and put Oddo and Kaladze.. why not Yepes or Nesta Well I wouldn't want to see Nesta here, in fact I don't want to see him in friendlies. Why risk getting him injured before the start of the season. I guess since Allegri knows he's stuck with kaladze might as well not continue to hurt his ego and let him play in a friendly

Honestly it doesn't matter where they are. No excuses for that. AC Milan's second and third string should be able to handle a team of that caliber, let alone the first stringers that did play.

So Varese was in training for 2 weeks already. We had trained for 4 days. Just an FYI. Still think we should have won though. It's that concentration thing again. (IMG: style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

One knows the tiger by it's footprints. (IMG: style_emoticons/default/smoke.gif) But c'mon...in 4 days of training, I don't really expect us to be sharp. But it's something we've specialised in for sometime now. Lack of concentration. (IMG: style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) P.S: One of those 4 days was spent playing volleyball!

LOL! Shocking friendly but we at least go to see Oudamadi and Verdi (IMG: style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) They are awesome!! In regards to the score, we should have had a few goals. They're goalie was godlike. In regards to the defence, all I say is what do you expect? 1)Nesta 2)Thiago Silva 3)Sokratis 4)Bonera5)Zambrotta 6)Yepes 7)Jankulovski8)Oddo9)KaladzeLook who started.... the result is normal if you think about it.

Well Bonera isn't that bad, but he's no Nesta, he can't cover for Kaladze's mistakes while trying to do his own job at the same time.

QUOTE (X-Offender @ Jul 26 2010, 09:03 PM)  Well, Bonera has never been injury-prone except the last year and a half or so. Let's hope he's back for good now, I quite like him. Same. I remember his first season at Milan when Nesta had a long injury spell, he played in the center along with Paolo and I remember thinking how great he was. But then injuries really did him in. Hopefully this season he'll stay clear of any long term injuries

I just saw the highlights. Like Blue said Oduamadi and Verdi look like they have a good thing going. Weaker foot is a problem for both though. Other than that an interesting comment made by a fan on a rossoneri blog..thought of copying it: QUOTE Have you heard what Allegri said about how Milan need to play in the absence of Pirlo? This is what really impressed me, more than anything else he’s said or done so far.
“Tutto sommato con Pirlo sarà possibile giocare il 4-3-1 2, ma senza di lui è preferibile cambiare sistema”
To those who can’t read Italian, he said that without Pirlo, it’s extremely difficult for Milan to play 4-3-1-2. What he then moved on to suggest, an alternative Pirlo-less system, in the form of 4-2-3-1. Where we would see something like this:
Abbiati/Amelia; Sokratis, Nesta, Thiago Silva, Antonini; Ambrosini, Flamini; Pato, Seedorf, Ronaldinho; Borriello.
The names in that formation are from me, not him, but I imagine it could only be this, or perhaps something only slightly different. This tactical versatility is something that an imperfect team like ours desperately needs, and if he can deduce this from one simple game against a Serie C side like Varese, then the man certainly seems to have a good head on his shoulders. The what-do-we-do-without-Pirlo dilemma is one that we’ve had since the Ancelotti days, and neither Carlo or Leo manage to solve it – best they did was put Seedorf in Pirlo’s place -. I’m not saying Allegri did, but he’s displaying a willingness to adapt (something Ancelotti never had), and the ability to do so (something the fresh Leonardo hadn’t quite learned how to do yet).
I’ll wait and see how this Pirlo-less formation actually works out, but it definitely sounds promising.
