I doubt Bonera will ever leave, and I seriously doubt there's someone out there willing to pay €3 million for him.

I personally think on his day Zapata is the best defender we have. He's the quickest and best at last-ditch tackles.
I think he should be partnered by a foil.
He was terrible last season when Allegri was here. He's too error prone, especially when it comes to positioning and passing the ball out of defence

True, but both players' form dropped, Zapata more so and the team as whole was one huge mess whereas the prior season things got sorted out more in the second half and we were more solid, thus making it easier for the defenders as well.

Balotelli and Mbaye Niang are left behind because they are suffering from flu symptoms and did not take part in today’s training session.
Midfielder Nigel de Jong also misses out, as he has a muscular problem.

Sapo also has muscular issues and Rami won't play because of the Valencia fans who have been making death threats over twitter so they won't be playing him to avoid any issues

I was hoping to see something close to what we might start the season with but with all these injuries/illnesses it will be difficult to assemble even a half decent team

Why did we sign Menez? He never plays. Honda as forward is epic fail.
Also, I'm getting really annoyed by Pippo constantly playing Muntari. That midfield is horrible. No wonder we get our @ss kicked by everyone.

Pippo needs to just get Muntari the f@ck out of there, move Honda back as he's absolutely being wasted out wide and bring Menez on that right side. You don't need to be left footed to play on the right wing FFS

If Pippo keeps these shenanigans he's gonna be eventually Allegri 2.0. Very disappointed from his so far.

El Sha should score in such situations.
To be fair to him, the entire goal was blocked by bodies, he had to get it under the defender's legs and then beat the keeper.
I think he's been one of the very few bright sparks so far.
Pazzo is invisible, Honda is equally so stuck out wide, Muntari is a nightmare, Poli and Constant are mostly going through the motions, Poli isn't the type of midfielder to really control tempo or get his foot on the ball to calm things down, Crstante could be that in the future but atm he's no where near ready. Albertazzi is just average at best. Abate has been good, Zapata and Bonera have been catastrophic
