QUOTE (Fishdoll @ Jul 30 2010, 12:56 PM)  Here's the official call up list from acmilan.com: Pirlo not going is a blow. s'gonna be painful. Time to showcase young talents and I hope they will be given a chance and do well...heck! I just hope they are given a chance! I'm tired of the same line up..year in year out..and the lack of development for youngsters..and loaning out isn't a solution as they get indoctrinated into a different culture..the best development is homegrown..maldini way..no disrespect to our 30+ year olds.. |

Interesting, some painfully absents there are, but on the other hand we can try out other players that way. And yes, other players as in also younger players. I'd start:
Pato, Borriello, Verdi
Strasser, Seedorf, Flamini Antonini, Yepes, Nesta, Papastathopoulos Abbiati |

No Pirlo and no Ambro, we'll be *.

I'm not sure I understand all the doom and gloom here, you're about to face an Arsenal side that will probably experiment with how Chamakh and Koscielny fit in, and I don't see a trouncing of 4-5 goals on the horizon.
Besides, there's huge question marks over the defence. Campbell, Gallas and Silvestre are all gone, so it will probably be Vermaelen partnering Djourou or Koscielny. Not a solid prospect at all, we need to bring in a top CB asap. |

Given the omissions, this fish would consider the following lineup:
Abbiati Zambrotta Yepes Nesta Antonini Gattuso Flamini Turtle Pato Borriello Verdi Various and sundry changes to be made during the course of the game (how many subs per game in this tournament? ANyone know?) so as to also see Amelia, Sokratis, Abate, Strasser, etc etc etc |

Get Pato on his stronger side so he can do some real damage when cutting it |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) This fish just noticed that Thiago Silva also isn't going on the trip. He better not be heading toward the Iberian peninsula.

Kaladze and Janku didn't go either. Maybe they'll head that way instead.

Ok, we're almost certain to get a midfielder. Allegri is quoted on Milannews.it as saying that "We need a midfielder that can play in the center." And then in a separate article he says "We need a midfielder but I will not tell you names".
All milannews.it but I'm sure its on other sites by now. This was also during his press conference, which is why I posted it in here. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) This post has been edited by Dracoris: Jul 30 2010, 06:57 PM |

A new midfielder would be nice, but this fish will cry if it's Blasi.

Maybe Berlusconi will keep his word and will transfer one champion, someone like Shweinshtainger ... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/innocent.gif)

He is probably going to Real Madrid, Robinho (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) ..
I wish it was Dzeko, but we know where that is going |

Almost all will be forgiven from me if it's Van Der Vaart. Almost.
