This is not a game we should be losing points in and I don't think we will, at least I hope we don't lose stupid points in this one!
Boateng is back, but we've lost Nesta (Anyone knows for how long?) And when will Mexes be available? This is the time when we need him most and yet we're experiancing the horror that is Bonera

Nesta is out for a month, Mexes is not fit enough to start yet so Bonera gonna play. Zambro and MVB might be rested in this game also.

We really need Mexes to start playing. He's taking too long.

Isn't it another injry that's kept him out? His knee is ok, and imo that's the most important thing. His hand injury just set him back but as long as it's not the knee that's keeping him out I'm not worried.
Yes, we coud really use him atm, but if it were a recurring knee problem, then I'd be worried

Well this was goal's headline for the Nesta injury..
QUOTE
AC Milan's Alessandro Nesta sidelined for a month with hip injury
The veteran defender picked up the knock against Barcelona in the Champions League in midweek, and will be replaced by either Daniele Bonera or Philippe Mexes against Chievo
Mexes can't be that far away if he's in contention for this game.

He's not far away, just won't ready to start in this game according to most Italian sites. He might start vs Genoa.

QUOTE ( Allegri @ few hours ago)

“It will be completely different to Wednesday, as after the great concentration and tension of that game, we must immediately settle back into the Serie A mentality, which is the most important thing right now,” said the Coach in his Press conference.
“We have five games from now until December 20, where we are forced to get as many points as possible to stay near to the top of the table.
“I think Juventus are more than ever the favourites for the Scudetto. Udinese continue the work they’ve done in recent years, Lazio were up there until the final rounds last season. Milan won the title, so obviously people put us among the favourites.
“We came out of the Barcelona game with a good performance, but mustn’t just be content with that. It helped our self-esteem and awareness grow, as we can battle against the top clubs in Europe.
“Against Barcelona and Fiorentina we played well, but made some mistakes and need to play more as a team.
“Chievo must not be underestimated. They defend solidly and are very dangerous on the counter-attack, so it will not be an easy game. Chievo have beaten Fiorentina and Catania, so we’ve got to give it our all.”
Alessandro Nesta is out for a month following a thigh strain and Philippe Mexes is not yet fit, so Mario Yepes or Daniele Bonera will step in.
Milan have been heavily linked with Carlos Tevez this week and the Manchester City man’s agent confirmed negotiations.
“I won’t talk about Tevez, because it’s not right to discuss players belonging to other clubs,” insisted Allegri.
“At this moment we have to focus on what we’ve got to do, then from January 1 we’ll see what happens.”

Good to see some coaches respect the rules.
Anyway, I hope we can have the game won by the 60th minute. Pato needs some playing time to get back into form, but I don't think he will start.
Fillipo Simone
Nov 26 2011, 11:38 PM
I think he should. This is ideal for him to come back in form.

well to be fair, Kaka was all the striker we ever needed, Pippo was super Pippo and Gila was there to balance out all the good that Ricky and Inzaghi did
Not to mention that Galliani had a habit or referring to Seedorf as a striker
