Just found out about this game on the official site, it's tomorrow.

Whoever can watch mediaset, it will be on Italia 1 at 23:00 CET

I only have Canale 5 They showing Juve - Inter tonight

Is it on settellitie? because if it is then you would probably also have Italia 1 since they are both mediaset channels

It is satellite , but it's not private one but restricted meaning it's controled by a company that for monthly fee providing a lot of channels however they decide which foreign channels to include and Italia 1 isn't one of them

Well sry man, hope that someone could find a link to a stream. On the official website they mentioned that Gourcuff could be a starter so I'm excited to see this match, I hope that Carlo will give Foggia a chance maybe even as the supporting forward

I think Italia 1 is not going to show it live cause the match is at 21:00 (italian time) and they're going to show it at 23:00. Hopefully an albanian channel is going to transmit it live so I won't have any problems.

Yeah just like the Lecco match, still no problem, I'm just glad that I'll get to see it live or not.

Here, Sport TV is only showing today's Moretti Cup with Juve, Inter and Napoli.

Hope Torres score some goals to open Braida's eyes.

That's what I'm hoping. We're very lucky to play against Atletico, great chance for Galliani and Braida to make some discussions about Torres.

Both of them have already said they wanted him, the problem is, does he want to leave atletico and will atletico let him go?

You know what we should do, we should tell them to let us buy Torres we give them the cash and we even forget about the millions they already owe us, I think that could be tempting enough

Yeah. And if that doesn't work, we can still give them something like 30-35 millions + Amoroso. That would be tempting too.

Or we could treathen them, tell them to give us our money back if they don't let us buy Torres

I wouldn't mind the 4 strikers: Inzaghi, Gilardino, Torres, Borriello.

OK, I'll keep dreaming...

Kezman .. said at a press conference that Athletico were good enough to challenge for honers without Torres. This was before the transfer window opened.

Torres's agent stated a while back that Torres was always going to show loyalty for Athletico, because it was the only club he ever knew, but the interest from Milan is very tempting

Torres knows that if he comes to Milan, he will accomplish fenominal things, especially since he will be garenteed a first team slot in a team like Milan ..
No comment

if we get torres this weeked, is he eligible to play the 2nd leg of the red star game?

I think so, since he has been preparing with Atletico and it's not like he just came from vacations.

i think he's prepared physically, but does uefa rules permit him to play?

No. Just in the CL group stage and on.

No because his name wasn't submitted in the 23 man list for the qualifier given to EUFA

now that you mention it ... i think our surprise transfer/s depend on the outcome of the second-leg match ...

anyway, for this match ... I hope that Gourcuff and Foggia will feature ... and I don't think Kaka' will play bcoz he's still unfit ...

Boriello should start with Gilardino at front
Gourcuff, Seedorf, Gattuso and Ambrosini in mid
Kaladze, Costacurta, Simic and Cafu at the back

I think we should get adventerous with our formation since this is a friendly, Kaka and Gila should play since they seem like the ones that are lacking the most in match fitness.

How about this formation

Cafu--Simic--Billy--Serginho
--------Gattuso--Pirlo---------
--Foggia---Gourcuff---Kaka--
--------------Gila---------------

Or we could go with the xmas tree


Cafu--Simic--Billy--Serginho
---Gattuso--Pirlo--Seedorf---
-------Goucuff--Kaka---------
--------------Gila--------------

Or we could just go with the same old formation, but since Pippo doesn't look like he needs to gain any match fitness I would much rather save him for later against Red star.

So I would use this


Cafu--Simic--Billy--Serginho
---Gattuso--Pirlo--Seedorf---
-------------Kaka--------------
----------Gila---Foggia--------

or

Cafu--Simic--Billy--Serginho
---Gattuso--Pirlo--Seedorf---
----------Gourcuff-------------
--------------------Kaka-------
------------Gila----------------


Even though I know that any of these won't happen and we'll just play with the same old 4-3-1-2 with Pippo and Gila upfront

I really hope Torres to destroy our defence. 3-0 or something. Hattrick.

Would be great. Maybe then Don Silvio says "OK, I'll open my pocket kids".

I don't think it will happen but let's see, as I said before it's not all up to us, it'wether he wants to leave and if atletico will let him leave.

Yes... too. I heard somewhere that he'll probably renewing with Atletico soon. Until 2009.

why can't we just raise young strikers from the academy? I mean Maldini, Costacurta were from the academy weren't they?

It's not that simple, since we don't have the time for the academy to develop a world class striker, and even so I doubt they will have the chance to brake into the first team, look at Foggia, he is a great telent, but will he have enough playing time to continue to develop into what promises to be a world class player? I gues we'll just have to wait and see

At what time is this match?

i´m french and i´m on holiday in portugal and i have made 500 kilometers to buy my ticket for athletico madrid vs milan. I hope that gourcuff will start the game to show to all the rossoneris he´s a great player. Forza Milan

It's originally at 9pm CET but if you are going to watch it on Italia 1 they are going to show it at 11pm CET

Welcome!!

Anyways, all this talk about Torres coming... Please STOP! You're giving me a heart attack!

So did you see Gourcuff play a lot of games when he was at Rennes?

Our front line ..^^^.. Very weak

I've heard that this will be our starting lineup:
Dida

Cafu Bonera Simic Favalli

Ambrosini Pirlo Gourcuff

Kaka

Gilardino Amoroso

I'm not too keen on Favalli at LB but apart from that I'm happy that Gourcuff and Kaka are both playing

Any chance of that smiley in v2 m1ke?

Of course

In bwin.com , it says that the match was delayed till 22:00.

EDIT

MATCH HAS STARTED!

MILAN: Dida; Bonera, Simic, Favalli, Jankulovski; Brocchi, Vogel, Ambrosini; Gourcuff; Borriello, Amoroso.

A disposizione: Coppola, Cafu, Astori, Gattuso, Foggia, Seedorf, Kakà, Serginho, Gilardino.

ATLETICO MADRID: Franco; Sefairidis, Perea, Pernia, Pablo; Rodriguez, Petrov, Gabi, Luccin; Aguero, Torres.

Their squad is really stronger than us

They're playing with their first 11.
