QUOTE (Rivaldo @ Feb 17 2009, 12:26 AM) Nobody...
Han, are you joking?? Kaladze?? Arrrrr.... Well he's 1 of the only 4 current central defenders we have. Yes he was horrible against Inter and might as well just put on an Inter shirt to begin with, but it's obvious that he's not match fit. We need to have back ups that could do the job. I put him in on the left so that he could regain match fitness but still not be a hazard by playing in the center

Playing Kaladze on the left, still wouldn't solve our width problem. (IMG: style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Even with Janku we're suffering. Sergio... (IMG: style_emoticons/default/cry.gif)

Pippo will get onside soon. He's a bit rusty.
You know this Flamini thing gets me everytime. I'd have expected him to be able to play on the flanks,since at Arsenal he's played as LB. It's just wierd.
Ronnie played well, coz his duties are well defined, it's not a split between him and Kaka. Carlo needs to fix that issue soon, of how to get our four number 10s to play in tandem. The thing is if he can allocate the jobs correctly, then it would be fine, since they're such great players (Andy, Zee, Ronnie, Ricky) they can't be stopped by pure tactics alone, if they're all playing to their strengths.
The problem here is that Andy shouldn't ideally have to shoulder defensive responsibility, more than cutting space for the DMs to make the tackle or for the fullbacks to get back.
Seedorf likes to play treqqie coz that's what he likes, to go up front, provide assists etc. It's not really the position he plays in that's irking him (withdrawn/ advanced)...however in our lineup, he's being used as solely a junction player, especially in the new 4-3-2-1. While in the old 4-3-1-2, he was also given the freedom to be a second creative mid, besides Rui/Kaka.
Ronnie and Ricky...both of them like the left side. I think Ronnie should be placed on the right, let him get used to it proper. I've seen him play that way for Brazil.
But this is just armchair talk. It's up to Carlo now.
I think what Carlo needs the most is some great assistants. Here it's wierd. You had Tassotti, Billy. These are all inexperienced guys, who were great players and looking to get into coaching. What he would need is some tactical input from someone other than Silvio Berlusconi...
Can we get the other fellow...Ten Cate?

Carletto made a brief statement at Malpensa on the way to Germany for the game.
Game-related comments: * Dida will play in goal * Pippo will play * There'll be a turnover in defense because Il Capitano can't play 3 games a week.

QUOTE ON TOMORROW’S FORMATION “Dida will play in goal. With regards to the rest of the team there will be a turnover in defence, because Maldini cannot play three games in a week. Inzaghi will play in attack because right now he's the only available attacker."

I don't think Pato has picked up an injury or anything, he's probably just being rested.

The game's getting a lot of coverage on Bremen's website. There's a longish interview with Maldini (in German, don't have time to translate) HERE.

Pato may have picked up a slight knock (piccoli problemi fisici in the original) and my guess is he won't play.
