Let's try to drum up some discussion on the pre-season games here. I think we're playing Modena on Saturday if I am not mistaken

The AM is desperately needed and it is even more glaring when Bennacer isn't there either. We can't create through the middle. Obviously we had a handicap yesterday with playing Tonali and Krunic(FFS) in the double pivot and this won't be our regular starting duo. But this just highlights the issues we have once you have to look beyond Kessie and Benna. Tonali has looked much better this pre-season, but still we cannot rely on just him being the substitute for both. Especially if we have a similar injury record as last season, not to mention the AFCON...

This Adli kid looks like a promising Bennacer sub, but I would still be more at ease if Bakayoko came in for the midfield

Pobega should be loaned out. The kid has potential but it would be a waste to keep him, especially if Pioli plays f@cking Krunic ahead of him. For the life of me I cannot understand his obsession with him. God awful
