The match has been brought forward for an afternoon kick off due to the weather.
As for the game itself, I'm not too hopeful after what I saw against Lazio. If we play like that we'll be in for another humiliating defeat |

QUOTE (CHU-LIP @ Feb 3 2012, 03:07 PM) Last match El Shaarawy did. Then Allegri took him off. El Shaa and the entire attack just wasn't connecting, he had to take someone off at that point and I think he chose to leave Robinho due to more experiance in such situations. He probably wanted to avoid a situation where a chance fell to El Shaa and he'd miss it. That would be totally demoralising for him Imo best team we can go out with is the same as the Lazio line-up but with Seedorf instead of Ambro. |

He really was poor, losing possession so easily and all. Not the Robinho I knew. How you can think of reasons to let him on the pitch and take off an in form El Shaarawy instead, is beyond me. He probably wanted to avoid WHAT? Since when does a coach has to worry about such stuff? What kind of excuses are this? Players will miss and score a lot in their football careers, especially forwards. If you want to avoid El Shaarawy being demoralisished, then never ever play him at all, in fact, tell him to quit play football. It was 0-0 at that time for sake! We needed to score, and Allegri subbed off our best preforming forward, and let the one who sucked that day on the pitch. Come on!! No need to defend Allegri for this. His decision made no single sense. Milan went downhill a lot that match when Allegri took off El Shaarawy. I blame Allegri a lot for this loss (not only this sub, also the starting line-up was ridiculous, once again), and I won't forgive him this mistake, because I really had enough of this guy for a while now.

Look, we lost, we have a game in 2 days, let's find a way to emotionally overcome the Lazio game. Reja is the most tenured Serie A coach in the league i think. Lazio, were it not for some late-game brilliance from Cassano & ibra, would have deservedly got all 3 points in our first encounter. Now let our pissed off squad go out there and mop the floor with napoli. Isn't this game at the San Siro? If so, we should be able to win this.

I'm not trying to defend Allegri but more trying to find some common sense in his motives for such decisions. It was always going to be a decision between Robs and him, he left Robs on even though he had a doosy of a game where he did nothing right. In the end, I doubt the decision to leave him on and take off Robs would have made a lot of difference to the end result. We were bad an deserved to lose.

And if anything, being the one subbed off when preforming well is actually what's totally demoralising. Especially when he starts on the bench against Napoli.

We need Aquilani and Boateng back ASAP. Maybe Pato, too. With this sucky Robinho and Cassano out for the entire season, our attack has really downgraded a lot.

That being said, we were still playing like cr@p against the top sides when they were all in the team. Where last season we swept our competitors aside barely breaking a sweat. This season we're making a meal out of such games. And not only that, we're not winning any of those games. |

Boateng has been getting injured a lot this season. Anyone know if all his problems have been muscular as well?
