Another must-win. Allegri back to his roots.
Inter facing Chievo at home in an evening fixture, while Lazio battles Napoli on Sunday. Another golden opportunity.
Full Version: Serie A - Giornata 24 - Cagliari vs. AC Milan
The Is Arenas stadium is not practicable due to the lack of safety measures for the public. The match could be played in Parma.

Hmh, that's closer to Milano so it sure would be good for us.
Pazzini will miss this game due to a muscular problem. Mexes might make it.
Cellino said that it's either Is Arenas or Cagliari won't play the game. Automatic 3 points? 
He's just another typical Italian football drama queen.
Well, Roma did get 3 points on the table because Cagliari refused to play elsewhere a few months ago.
I have no doubt he can act on it, I'm just saying that Italian football suffers because of morons like him.
1. That'd be good news, but Mexes is still injured, so Yepes will play. 
2. Cagliari still have to say theirs about it, though. And Cellino's statement yesterday leaves us with hope for an automatic 3-0 win.

Why not try out Zaccardo?
He's been a regular for Parma this season right?
Yeah.
Yepes or Zaccardo, both are better then Bonera.

Indeed.

Berlusconi: Milan should play in IS Arenas
Milan President Silvio Berlusconi wants the Lega Calcio tomove their game with Cagliari back to the Is Arenas rather than Turin.
The Cagliari home tie was switched to the Stadio Olimpico in Turin today after the Is Arenas again failed security checks.
“It is a festival of football, so it’s only right that it should be played at the Is Arenas,” Milan President Berlusconi told Videolina television.
“Milan fans have always had an ideal rapport with Cagliari supporters. I don’t remember a single incident of unpleasantness.
“I really can’t see how they can give the all-clear for Napoli to play here, but not Milan. After all, Milan fans are considered the best behaved in Italy, after those of Cagliari, of course.
“I doubt this fixture could create any disorder. I hope Milan can play their game in Sardinia.”
The match is set to kick off at 14.00 GMT on Sunday, but Cagliari are reportedly prepared to boycott it.
The official Cagliari website continues to be updated with absolutely no mention of this change of venue.

suckin the d*ck for votes are we berlu
Its deemed unsafe but we should play anyways hey? How much you guys wanna bet he won't be there
anyways looks like its gonna be automatic 3 points and a week of rest for our players
Silly politician! suddenly speaks like he's Paolo Maldini.
If it means ruffling the feathers of the Cagliari management and making them feel even more indignant about not playing their home game in their own stadium, then talk away Silvio!
I'd love those 3 points while our players get the rest after being away with their NTs

Yeah, would be perfect.
FI probable line up: Abbiati; Abate, Zapata, Yepes, Constant; Nocerino, Flamini, Boateng; Niang, Balotelli, El Shaarawy

Looks good
"Flamini has been like a new signing, our midfield is fine now". I'm just waiting for it.
Constant injured, not called up for Cagliari.
QUOTE (kurtsimonw @ Feb 8 2013, 12:13 PM)
At least Mexes and De Sciglio returned to the squad and ready to play, but Boateng is still doubtful (returned to training with the rest of the squad just yesterday) and Abate might be rested.
Probable line-up according to TMW: Abbiati; De Sciglio, Mexes, Zapata, Antonini; Flamini, Ambrosini, Muntari; Niang, Balotelli, El Shaarawy.

Hopefully it's just a bad joke and nothing more.
EDIT: Crap, Gazzetta have the same line-up, too.

There's a scary thought
I think we should begin to try out our new signings that are eligible to play in the champions league for proper plending rather than using balotelli and co.
Zaccado and pazzini should get the nod for this game.

I strongly disagree. The champions league is not important right now. Getting three points is the most important thing this week. New players can come in as subs if the situation is right.
Pazzini is unavailable anyway.
OMG, line-up actually confirmed. We'll be playing with Flamini, Ambrosini and Muntari in midfield.
Official:
Cagliari: Agazzi; Pisano, Astori, Rossettini, Murro; Dessena, Conti, Ekdal; Thiago Ribeiro, Sau, Ibarbo
Milan: Abbiati; Abate, Zapata, Mexes, De Sciglio; Flamini, Ambrosini, Muntari; Niang, Balotelli, El Shaarawy
Why not Nocerino or Boateng? At least one of them.

Boateng just returned from sickness so thats understandable. Nocerino though.....he should be starting.
Considering where we stand in the table right now, in comparison to how we started. And taking the squad in hand into consideration, yes X-Off he is 
There's no justification for playing that midfield. I pray to god we actually win today, because if we don't, then 100% of the blame will directly fall on Allegri and his atrocious line-up choices.
Even though I agree Nocerino should start, especially over Muntari, I doubt it would make the needed difference. One way or the other, with Boateng and Montolivo we lack creativity in midfield.

BOTH should have started. But we've become accustomed to this ridiculous BS now.
And people STILL want him to stay on for next season as well! What a f@cking joke!

Abate making a last ditch tackle to save a sure goal

Yes, Ambrosini's pass was cut, but where was our defense? Completely out of position.
I can't watch this match, it hurts my eyes.
