QUOTE (han2503 @ Mar 1 2007, 09:08 AM) This is a MUST win, we can't drop anymore points or we will continue to lose ground  At this point, any game we play is a MUST win until the end of the season. It's just going to be so hard competing with Lazio... Those guys are doing absolutely fantastic... After that 3:0 win againts Roma, their confidence has skyrocketed... I just hope Palermo keep dropping points... |

Yep, We have to fight it out with Empoli, Lazio and Palermo. It will be really hard. I can already see us losing 6 points against Inter and Roma so these 'easy' (and I use that term loosely because there is no easy game for us this season) games are the most crucial This post has been edited by han2503: Mar 1 2007, 09:14 PM |

If carlo does not win this game, hes gonna be in hot water. I would personally play oli and ronaldo and rest gila. Hopefully he doesn't dive in the second leg. Gourcuff should get playing time in this one and we should rest pirlo or give him short time on. Bonera is a must and so is kaladze. Kalac played good, i hope he gets to play. I personally think as of now in our current conditions, kalac is a better choice than dida and storari but who knows how things turn out. This game cannot end in a draw or a loss. Its a must win situation. Things are getting dangerous in the table and we must be able to achieve a firm hold on 4th or 3rd place and we must do it quickly. Last minute sh!t in the table is not worth ruining CL place for.

Milan - Chievo -- Football Italia preview
With so much at stake for both teams it will be a no holds barred encounter when Chievo travel to the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza to face Milan. Both sides have reached an all-important crossroads in the season that could make or break their campaigns. The home side have seen a vast improvement since the winter break and have shot up the table into contention for a Champions League place, despite their poor start and an eight-point Calciopoli deduction. However, the lacklustre performance in the 0-0 stalemate with Palermo means the Rossoneri need a win here to avoid losing momentum and derailing their challenge for a top four spot. It won’t be easy with so many players missing though. Paolo Maldini, Alessandro Costacurta, Marcos Cafu, Kakha Kaladze, Alessandro Nesta, Serginho and Filippo Inzaghi are all laid out on the treatment table and extremely doubtful for this crucial tie. With so many defenders out of action it will be crucial for the likes of Dario Simic and Daniele Bonera to step up a gear. Coach Carlo Ancelotti is also likely to switch to a 4-4-1-1 formation to provide more cover at the back, with Ronaldo taking the striker’s role supported by Kaka. Chievo are not too much better off either, as they have an injury crisis of their own to contend with. Goalkeeper Vincenzo Sicignano, midfield duo Luciano and Luis Cesar Prates plus strikers Victor Obinna and Federico Cossato are all out injured. To make matters worse full-back Fabio Moro and Albanian hitman Erjon Bogdani have both picked up suspensions. But there can be no excuses for the Gialloblu given their precarious League position. With just three points separating them from the relegation zone Coach Gigi Del Neri knows his side can’t afford to lose any more games. Their 3-0 thrashing of Torino and the 2-2 draw with Roma have started a wave of optimism at the Bentegodi, even if they let a two-goal lead slip away against the Giallorossi, and the fans will be hoping they can build up some momentum here. Man on fire: Ronaldo (Milan) – The Brazilian has been showing signs of his former self since his January move to Milan and Il Fenomeno will be refreshed and ready for action after being rested in midweek. Last season: Milan 4-1 Chievo Form guide: Milan (W W W W D) Chievo (D L D W D) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Milan (probable): Dida; Oddo, Simic, Bonera, Jankulovski; Brocchi, Gattuso, Pirlo, Seedorf; Kaka; Ronaldo Chievo (probable): Squizzi; Malago, Mandelli, D’Anna, Lanna; Sammarco, Italiano, Brighi; Semioli, Pellissier, Cozzolino Channel4 |

Where is our Captain, and is Nesta likely to make it for the Celtic clash??
Im not sure if we will win, as Carlo wont play the best team right before a CL game, because he is probably afraid to lose more players. 0-0 i say..... (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

QUOTE (Jack Sparrow @ Mar 2 2007, 11:57 AM) The way Kalac has been playing...it's like comparing Ambrosini with Rino. What? Kalac had a decent game against Celtic... Because they had no chances... There was one freekick and that tall @ss aussie better had saved it or he would have become utterly and completely useless... Other than that, he has been nothing but unreliable for us this season. I remember how Maldini and co had to sacrfice everything they had just so they can protect this clown from messing up... It was our DEFENDERS that protected him... He is MILES and MILES away from Dida... Wheoever thinks Kalac is even worth being compared with Dida needs to open his eyes and realiaze that Dida is in a completely different league and planet than keepers like Kalac and Storari.... It's like saying Bresciano with Kaka... Same thing, these guys are completely different leagues... It's like comparing the Brazil national side with the Australian national side... CAN I BE ANY CLEARER THAN THIS? This post has been edited by pKillerMax: Mar 2 2007, 07:11 PM |

Call-ups for the game:
PORTIERI: Dida, Kalac, Storari. DIFENSORI: Bonera, Favalli, Grimi, Jankulovski, Oddo, Simic. CENTROCAMPISTI: Ambrosini, Brocchi, Gattuso, Gourcuff, Kakà , Pirlo, Seedorf. ATTACCANTI: Gilardino, Inzaghi, Ricardo Oliveira, Ronaldo. At least the defense isn't quite so scary looking as for the Palermo game. |
