So here goes nothing.

2 teams both hotly tipped at the start of the season on the basis of their ambitious transfer moves are struggling with poor starts. Both desperately want a win. Both are known to be attacking sides. Should be a keen contest.

I keep hearing that Robinho can't play because he is out of form... If somebody can please tell me how gattuso and seedorf are in form then i would love to know? It is completely unfair that robinho is getting no game time when he is the direct replacement for pato.
I don't mind the 4-3-3 as this is the only way ronnie can play and i dont want to see him on the bench.

A good line up for me would be:
-------------------Abbiati------------------

Zambrotta----Nesta----Silva----Antonini

-----Flamini------Pirlo------Boateng------

Robinho-----------Zlatan----------Ronnie

I agree we need a change, but with the right players then the 4-3-3 can still work, especially with a hard working midfield that can still pass a ball. I would like to see boateng playing on ronnie's side, i think they would link up well together and ronnie will appreciate his energy and use of space, unlike slowdorf (who i think is killing ronnie's spirit)

I want to see Robinho play. I think the best thing is to stick with 4-3-3 but Allegri must use the right players in their right positions. Boateng in wings is just crazy. Robinho should play even if he is not completely fit. In every press conference Allegri says that he should have had more time to work with the team so new players could adapt to their roles and every time he says we have to improve but how in the world you can improve if you're changing your line-up every game? Playing Gattuso is another mystery which needs to be solved.

But IMO the most important thing is to play Antonini and Zambrotta in FB positions. all other options there are completely useless.

I also agree on playing Pirlo in front of two defensive midfielders. He can be more like Sneider that way.

I would like to see boateng playing on ronnie's side, i think they would link up well together and ronnie will appreciate his energy and use of space, unlike slowdorf (who i think is killing ronnie's spirit)

Bad idea. Boateng is our only runner who joins the attack line very well. So he can use Ronaldinho's long balls like he did against Auxerre. Playing him next to Ronaldinho will neutralize this threat. And the only positive thing about Seedorf right now is that he has good chemistry with Ronnie IMO.

Anyway if Boateng plays in midfield he runs around the pitch very well, but Allegri must play him in HIS position.
