A tough one for sure and we basically have no defenders available. Let's all pray that Romagnoli's problem is minor

Montella should start Gomez ahead of Zapata as well (if both are not needed). He's been impressive in that last few games he's played.

What saddened me last night was not the result, because frankly this Milan going to Rome and getting a point is an achievement these days, but simply the sad side of what our team now is.

Not a single player who lined up for us was even 'normal' Milan squad quality, with Gigio and Abate the only contenders.

It was literally the most depressing XI I have ever seen us start with, Donna, Abate, Zapata, Gomez, Vangioni, Locatelli, Pasalic, Poli, Deulofeu, DeCampos, Suso.

I have never looked at a Milan XI with less sadness than I did last night, and while the guys did try hard enough, the utter absence of even a semblance of proper Milan quality was so, so overwhelming. Suso did one good thing, and was otherwise absolutely useless. That Sosa was our best player on the night summed up that a Besiktas reject is now the pinnacle of our squad.

There's not a lot to like about Milan right now, and there's little Montella can really do. Add the fact that Bacca and he clearly have had a massive fall out and it really is such a feeble era at Milanello. It's actually worse now than the Milan we had after 2012. What we have is a good manager, for all the mistakes he has undeniably made, who is stopping the rot festering into something even worse than the Pippo era. This team would be getting relegated under Pippo. But they do at least try/play for their manager.
