Our bogey team, the team that got Allegri fired (thanks for that one Sassuolo (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) )

They haven't exactly been all that great this season, they've struggled a lot, have missed a couple of key players, most importantly Berardi and they've just not been the swash buckling little thorns we've gotten used to over these last few years.

That being said, it's still going to be a very hard fixture for us, we tend to struggle against them for whatever reason, and we've still got a lot of injuries through the squad

That being said, I saw yesterday that DS and Calabria could both be back so at least the situation at FB is not as dire as it was

Best line-up we can field imo

Abate--Gomes--Paletta--De Sciglio
Kucka--Sosa--Pasalic
Suso--Lapadula--Deulofeu

I won't bite on the Allegri comment (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Sassuolo know how to beat us. They have the Indian sign over us. My expectations are low for this one.

Same XI as last match only Bertolacci for Pasalic and Zapata for Gomez.

I'm mildly concerned by that midfield switch. Thought Pasalic was a decent performer v Fio.

Agreed, same with the defence for me. I think Gomez is a better option. Zapata is just problematic in so many ways

Bacca has even forgotten how to run in a straight line with the ball at his feet. He just looks so sluggish these days

Zapata...

He has 2 options in front of him, a wide open Sosa or Kucka covered by 2 players. Gues who he chooses to pass to (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

He was much better in that 45 than he's been for months. He worked much harder than he has been, and he's made some excellent runs.

Problem is his style continues to not suit this system, and he will NEVER be great at hold up play which is what we need in that position - Lapadula doesn't seem very good at it either. We need a Suarez type but those cost a lot.

That all said, this was the best Milan have played at this ground for four years, and while we got lucky with the penalty going in, it must be said neither of them WERE penalties and the ref is having a shocker.

Haha, your new Muntari (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Neither of our CBs are good at passing. It's not their forte. Even Romagnoli isn't that great at it. In terms of brute force defending though they're pretty good. Can't remember Gigio being forced into a decent save at all in that half.
