porquoi?

Because we play Lecce this Sunday.

No I've read somewhere that his injury was not serious and also read a declaration of Verdi saying that he feels Ok.

No, I was answering to Blue's question of why shouldn't we field our best players for more than 50 minutes, like you said.

Anyone know where Adiyiah is?

Haven't seen him since Emirates cup.

we will get s*** pumped if barca start with that line up

I really think Allegri shouldn't start Nesta and/or Pirlo. They are our key players and even Lecce is not very good, we still can't risk 3 point for some friendly. I don't care if we get humiliated by a 6-0.

With great realism, Mr. Allegri, interviewed this morning at the Malpensa airport, has focused on the three points in the game on Sunday night. Without distraction, the Barcelona match is also part of the preparation.

MILAN - Shortly before take-off for Catalonia, and Massimiliano Allegri said: "For us, beyond the prestige of the event, tonight's game is important, it serves as training for the game on Sunday evening against Lecce which is what counts most. The team was on track against Juventus Sunday night we did well, we created a lot and have given little away. Kaladze? It seems to me that Jankulovski was called up today... anyway I only make technical choices and the players know it. "

Allegri continued: "I challenge any coach to refuse to train Ibrahimovic as he is a star, but we are working with the lads who are there, who will start or who we will look at between now and August 31st. Even without the arrival of Ibrahimovic, Milan has to be a protagonist and feel it. If Ibrahimovic arrives, it strengthens an area which is already strong."

Other topics in closing: "Pato is a lot better and I think he will be available on Sunday. Ronaldinho? In Barcelona he did well, he lived through the most important season of his career, but today he is 30 years old, physically he can do better, we expect a lot from him and he knows it."

lecce just got promoted, we could play


odu-beretta-verdi

merkel-boateng-novinic



and still win

Thats the kind of attitude that leads you straight to a loss! We need our best on Sunday. The fact that they just got promoted means we have no real idea how good they are going to be.

Nonsense. You underestimate Lecce a lot. EVERY Serie A club beats that midfield+attack.

lineups

Barcelona: Pinto, Adriano, Puyol, Milito, Abidal, Dos Santos, Iniesta, Maxwell, Jeffren, Villa and Ibrahimovic. Milan: Amelia, Bonera, Nesta, Thiago Silva, Antonini, Pirlo, Ambrosini, Boateng, Huntelaar, Borriello i Ronaldinho

Hmm. So this is a 4-3-1-2 or is Klass on the wing again?

That's the strongest line up we have... Hopefully this doesn't bite us in the @ss on the weekend

Well, the strongest bar Turtle.

Anyone know why he puts Prince on his jersey instead of Boateng? Other than its much cooler?
