Agreed with everything being said, Allegri has shown some willingness to make changes, ie formation and not keeping up with Dihno as a winger, but his insistance on playing the old gaurd in every game is becoming a real annoyance. Gattuso shouldn't have played against Chievo, Flamini could have done the job just fine, while I feel more comfortable having a totally fit Rino to play against Real. Boateng should be playing instead of Seedorf, but we all know that's not going to happen because Allegri would never bench Seedorf, especially not against Madrid. So we'll have a tired Seedorf against Real instead of an energetic Boateng. Real play 2 in midfield (Alonso, Khedira) and Ozil behind the front 3, playing Boateng, Pirlo and Rino would give us the upper hand in the midfield battle, while playing Seedorf, Pirlo and Rino will make our midfield slow, they won't be able to cope with Real's quick players.

On the defence, I can't understand why Allegri would lose faith on Sokratis after just one bad game, when in reality everyone played like cr@p against Cesena, and Bonera was to blame for the goal as much as Sokratis. Imo Sokratis will only be brought back into the fold if Bonera makes a howler, sadly that is something that could easily happen against Real, can you imagine him coming up against Di Maria/C.Ron/Higuain/Ozil?? Oh the sheer terror I feel at that prospect.

This while Sokratis has experiance against top plaers (marking out Messi in the WC), he's much stronger, and faster then Bonera. I really don't understand the logic in plaing Bonera or Yepes for that matter over Sokratis

As for Ibra, aside from some magical isolated moments he realy wasn't looking in top shape, he's been having some trouble with injuries so ~I don't really blame him, I blame Allegri for keeping him on for 90 minutes every game, Robinho should have come on for Ibra yesterday, not Pato. Pato was still looking like he could play another 90 minutes when he was taken off, while Ibra looked exhausted.
