Ibra and Boateng should make it. Sucks about Taiwo. He was having a good game last night and it's important for him to play as many games as possible to get acquainted with his new environment. Also, what happened to Van Bommel?
It's a good thing though that there will be friendlies after the first week, so we should recover all of our players except Taiwo for the second week.

I was under the impression he was on vacation, till I just came across this on a Van Bommel (fan) blog:
Mark has suffered a severe contusion in his calf muscle. He will be reassessed in ten days time.

im convinced the only reason allegri played rino and ambro this offseason, is hoping they get injured instead of the actual midfield. Sadly it is everyone around them that is getting injured...

No, it's important to keep the players in shape by playing such friendlies.

Aside from Nesta, Abate, Abbiati and Seedorf, all the important players will be on NT duty so I don't think it's that much of a big deal

Well seeing how our pre-season has been going so far I'd rather not risk it. They'll still be training on a regular basis and it's not like Como is a team that can really test our match fitness. Just organize something against the primaveras or something

I'm realistic

5 injuries, one of them really serious have been incurred during this pre-season. Risking anymore for a pointless friendly just doesn't sit well with me.

We had a well scheduled pre-season imo, not going on some ridiculous tour for the money and playing some competitive as well as easy games. Yes we have another 2 weeks to go before the season starts now thanks to the strike, but it's not like the players are sitting around eating bon bons, they're still working hard, getting into shape for the season

We'll finally get to see El Shaarawy today, Boateng is also available since he's seemingly had a despute with this NT coach, is Pippo fit or is he still injured?

Apparently El-Shaarawy hit the post as well as created the move that resulted in our goal. That's the extent I can understand in my little knowledge of Italian
1-1 is the score

ambro scored, el sha assisted. Then 2 minutes later bonera got r@ped 1v1 and como scored.

Bonera seems to be having a doozy of a game from what I can tell by reading the live updates.
Forget DDR, first priority is to sell Bonera and bring back Astori on a free
