From the frying pan into the fire?
We'll see, but if we lose this one Galliani should be kicked out the door along with Allegri if he doesn't fire him. Inexcusable |

I'm very curious about what formation Allegri will field here.

It's against all logic when Malaga doesn't win this.

TMW hints that we might play like this:
GK De Sciglio, Mexes/Zapata, Bonera, Antonini De Jong, Ambrosini Emanuelson, Montolivo, El Shaarawy Pato/Bojan/Pazzini Link |

Move Bojan back instead of him and start Pato upfront (it's a no-brainer for me) The backline is once again being moved around instead of just playing the best 4. Allegri will never learn, which is why he should have been fired about 3 games ago |

A 2nd half sub would be better, just to be safe. I'd rather play a 4321 with Nocerino in a 3man midfield and breaking for counters, instead of Urby. |

I'd rather play a 4321 with Nocerino in a 3man midfield and breaking for counters, instead of Urby. I think it's better to try Pato away from home. Pretty much all his muscle injuries have taken place at the San Siro. See if he does better on another pitch. I think we've played our best football (yes, I know that's not saying much) when using the 4-2-3-1. It's a matter of playing the right players in all the positions and letting that combination of players find some cohesion and understanding between each other. |

Nocerino is performing as bad as Boateng, neither of them deserve a starting spot. |

Though a 3 of Bojan/Monto/SES might create things, so Pazzini should get service and I'm confident with that he'll score. No way we go with that though. It'll be Urby playing. |

Its not about which pitch is jinxed ... More like Pato just came back? And needs to be integrated slowly? Even IF our hopes seem to be shattered without him.

Even IF our hopes seem to be shattered without him. It's not about the pitch being jinxed, it's about the pitch at the San Siro being utter cr@p so it might have contributed to the injuries. |

Inexcusable I know we're beleaguered but you reckon if Allegri doesn't get at least a point from Malaga (who not only qualified for the CL ahead of Atletico, but are keeping up that form and are 3rd in Spain) on their own turf then that's failure? Malaga are leaps and bounds better than us in every department. I'm quite ready for the defeat. |

Malaga are leaps and bounds better than us in every department. I'm quite ready for the defeat. It's the principle of it all though. Not the opponent. The fact is that we haven't won a Serie A game since I can't even remember at this very moment. We've only won 1 CL game The track record is appaling and it cannot be ignored anymore. Had Allegri been fired 3 matches ago we would have more than likely found our feet with the new coach rather than having to keep on beating down on the roadkill that Allegri has turned us into. The point is that we won't be seeing any improvement until Allegri is out of the picture. And at this point it does not matter who our opponent is |
