@kurt I like your second formation but as you said with Carlo it's highly unlikely, the only thing I would change is Seedorf for Ambro, there is no way that Carlo will leave Seedorf out imo and we don't need 2 defensive mids against Bologna they are a very defensive team and will put 10 men behind the ball so we'll need that added push from midfield, and Kala (sadly) for Bonera because he is suspended

Abbiati

Zambrotta - Kaladze - Maldini - Jankulovski

Flamini - Pirlo - Seedorf

Ronaldino

Pato - Shevchenko

Subs: Dida, Kaladze, Senderos, Gattuso, Viudez, Ambrosini, Borriello

The reason I put Ambro in over Seedorf is this: With all due respect to Bologna, we should win without much trouble, and I think they know that. They will defend alot and in games like this, pretty football isn't really the answer. Sometimes we need to put the ball in the box and have hard working players who have the motivation to play in the 'crap' games, plus he's good in the air which can be important against these teams.

So I agree with the team you put out, except Ambro in for Seedorf.. maybe it's just that I like Ambro alot. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

Pato and Sheva together? I certainly don't want to see that! Then again it could work so it might be a good idea to try it out before ruling it out.

I'm going on the thought that Carlo won't leave Seedorf out, I just can't see it happening. And as you said, they will defend a lot, so having those 2 defensive midfielders to me is unneccesary, we saw it countless times last season. Yes Flamini brings something extra that neither Rino or Ambro have but against a team that will put all their men behind the ball and try to hit us on the counter we need something extra in midfield. Flamini can sit back in front of the defence when Seedorf and Pirlo push forward, and if we get a healthy lead by half time Ambro should come on for Seedorf at some point during the second half

Pato and Sheva together? I certainly don't want to see that! Then again it could work so it might be a good idea to try it out before ruling it out.

I think it will work, Sheva can play either as a supporting forward or a box striker, and because he's lost some pace it would suit him better to be the man furthest forward while Pato is the one that is in support of him.

Iv always like seedorf when hes in midfield. He'd always play amazing even though he doesn't like being back..

[MizNelson]

excuse me MizNelson, sorry if you already answered this somewhere else...but when you say that you met god, did you meet Paolo? or Dida? what do you meaaann?!

Well, it looks like a certain spokespirate already answered that question. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Heck, if I actually met Dida in person, I'd probably pass out from excitement.

I could've sworn acid911 was a girl. Oh, well, proof that I don't know everything. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I guess we're getting way OT here, but you don't know what PMS stands for? (You are a chick, right?)

No, I like to think of myself as a boy! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) And no it wasn't a bad choice of words. I know what PMS means. Then again, Seedorf seems to suffer from it too, sometimes.

i don't think so. But I would think most men know or at least suspect what PMS is?

Most. Yes. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I mean it's only natural.

@acid:
Seedorf relegated into the realm of usefulness?? Sacrilege!! He remains one of my favourite players of the Carlo Milan team v1.

He's mine too. No midfielder like him in Europe. No wonder the Holland NT fans were begging him to come back. But he needs to put a sock in his mouth every now and then. Egotistic Dutch. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/angry.gif) We need him very much, yes.

No, MizNelson, acid is not a girl.

Thanks partner. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Never say never. Maybe you will. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sleepysmiley03.gif) Someday.

No worries. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif) Happens.

Leet is short for Elite. Some cool hacker dude thought that it would be a cool thing to make up their own lingo so that they could pwn everyone. And so, they switched letters with looky-likey numbers eg A became 4, I became 1, l became 1, O became 0, E became 3 and so on. And they thought they were a world apart for typing such. Hence, leet speak. Kapisce?

Pola has been given the Fishdoll Code of Conduct to keep track of who is due cookies (or trips to the piranha tank) in my absence.

Don't worry, Tennie. Everything will be fine. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) And just in case anyone's wondering about trips to the piranha tank, the only thing I can guarantee is that they'll only be one way trips. So please get along well with fellow members, guys. Particularly during match days.

Channel4's probable lineup (proving they know nothing): Abbiati; Zambrotta, Nesta, Kaladze, Jankulovski; Gattuso, Pirlo, Flamini; Kaka, Ronaldinho, Pato

Gazzetta's probable lineup (closer): Abbiati, Zambrotta, Nesta, Kaladze, Jankulovski, Gattuso, Pirlo, Ambrosini, Seedorf, Ronaldinho, Shevchenko

I'm pretty sure Nesta is still injured, not sure about Gattuso either.

My probable lineup: Abbiati, Zambrotta, Kaladze, Maldini, Jankulovski, Flamini, Pirlo, Ambrosini, Seedorf, Ronaldinho, Pato

EDIT:

Mediaset thinks Milan's front line will consist of Seedorf and Ronaldinho and in front of them Inzaghi ... The reason is because all of Kaka', Sheva, Borriello, and Pato are not fit or injured.

As we know from Tennie :

Tennie would be proud. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/king.gif) Job well done Armiss. It's always good to know what's happening inside Milano before matches.

[armiss]

Thanks acid !

Probable lineup from different sources before every match would be a good idea !
