THE THREE WAY TOURNAMENT WITH NAPOLI AND JUVENTUS:

Tomorrow night we'll see some kids, we've got absences with national team players. We have the opportunity to let some young players like Darmian have game time as well as those who have played less such as Inzaghi, Brocchi, and Antonini. We can get indications from these games. Darmian will play one game as a centerback and one as a right back. Dida will play one game and Kalac the other. In defense we'll for sure have Darmian, Favalli and Antonini, and we'll choose from Albertazzi and Pasini. In midfield we'll have Cardacio, Brocchi and Ambrosini, in attack Seedorf, Paloschi and Inzaghi. Ambrosini will play the first game as a midfielder, then we'll see. Tomorrow we'll face adversaries worthy of respect, but the most important thing will be the audience. The stadium in Napli will be sold out and there'll be a lot of enthusiasm, it's right that the Neapolitans can help put on a good show.

RECUPERATIONS AND RETURNS
Emerson trained with the group for the first time today, he's doing well but it's still early for him to play, first he needs to do more work. Nesta has started training and is working separately. Ronaldinho? After the Olympics he'll return to Milanello, this is confirmed. The Brazil that faced Argentina was a little disappointing as a team. Pato played a little less while Ronaldinho (?not sure here) had the same difficulty as the rest of the time playing at a certain rhythm.

THE MARKET
The news about Shevchenko isn't official, he's still a Chelsea player. The rehabilitation of players? We're used to competition, sometimes it goes well, other times not. It depends on the motivation of the players when they come here, at Milan the management of players has never been a problem. A defender? Now we're getting players back: Kaladze and Maldini will return Sunday and in any case against Juve the defense did well even with a lot of absences. Ivanovic? For Chelsea, he's unsellable. In any case, in general, it's not certain that Shevchenko will arrive and it's not certain that the market is closed if Shevchenko does arrive.

Wow, so we'll get to see Darmian play. I wish I could watch the games -- but for those of you who haven't seen him, I'll be curious to know what you make of him. Ditto Albertazzi if he plays.
