Most predicted line-ups still have Montella using the 4-3-3 with Borini starting on the wing. Honestly, I'm getting concerned about this if he keeps on persisting with it when we obviously don't have the players for it

Conti's out as a precaution (should be back for the EL game), so either Abate or Calabria will start.

Gianluca Rocchi will call the game. He is not one of my favorite refs.


As for the formation, I agree that 4-3-3 isn't ideal given the players we have *when we're at full strength*, but until Romagnoli is fully back, I suspect the team won't move to 3 at the back.

Mediaset has a different line-up: Donnarumma; Abate, Musacchio, Bonucci, Rodriguez; Kessie, Biglia, Montolivo; Suso, Cutrone, Bonaventura.

Good to have Bonaventura back for this crucial test.

Now they have Borini instead of Jack. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

How about we play both Hakan and Jack and bench the hell out of Monto and Borini? Eh, Montella? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/realmad.gif)

I'd like to see this: Donnarumma, Abate, Musacchio, Bonucci, Rodriguez, Kessie, Biglia, Bonaventura, Suso, Cutrone, Calhanoglu.

Perhaps Jack isn't starting because of the long stretch of games coming - including the Europa League game this Thursday. All things being equal, I'd prefer him to start as well.

Still doesn't make sense to not play him in the more difficult fixture

This Borini thing is really starting to needle me. He started all of our games, just doesn't make sense. Monto I sort of understand as he adds more defensive stability than either Hakan or Jack, But Borini? That man is useless and literally kills our left side.

This 4-3-3 business is also getting beyond annoying now. We simply do not have the players for it so why persist?

Montella could easily go 4-3-1-2/4-3-2-1/4-2-3-1 with the players he has. Actually all of them would fit more naturally in any of those systems. 4-3-3 just looks completely unnatural with this group of players

I've been behind Montella completely up until this point. And atm complaining is counterproductive because we've won all our games. But he needs to change thing up and he needs to incorporate his best players into the line-up not play Borini to satisfy his 4-3-3 fetish while leaving players like Bona, Hakan, Silva and Kalinic on the bench

Also, I know Cutrone is on a streak but he should be played in the EL game and not against Lazio imo. He's a a very good goal scorer but his overall contribution to the game is limited and when you're playing a team like Lazio you need more then someone who'll just pop up with a goal

I put Cutrone only because he's on a streak. I feel he should be given the opportunity to extend his good form. But I expect if things do not go well, Silva or Kalinic will replace him in the second half.

As of now it's at strong risk of being postponed. Decision to be made in around 30 minutes.

We'll see...
