Week 3: Inter - AC Milan - Sun 13/09/2015 - 20:45 CET

AliAslamACM · Sep 1, 2015

Diego Lopez
Abate - Rodrigo Ely - Romagnoli - De Sciglio
Montolivo - Mauri - Kucka
Honda
Bacca - L.Adriano

Get rid of de Jong, bring back Montolivo and give Mauri a chance.

Goodfella · Sep 1, 2015

What I think are both teams' best lineups and system

Inter
4-3-3 / 4-3-2-1

Icardi/Jovetic
Jovetic/Perisic - Perisic/Ljajic
Kondogbia - Melo/Medel - Medel/Guarin
Santon/Telles -Murillo - Miranda - Montoya/D'Ambrosio
Handanovic

Milan
I really can't stand it, but I think this squad needs a 3CB system, 3-5-2, to survive. That's how Genoa afforded fielding Berto in the midfield, that's where we saw the best of Zapata, that's how you compensate for midfielders who suck defensively, etc.

3-5-2 / 3-4-1-2

Bacca - Adriano
Antonelli/DES - Bertolacci - Monto - Kucka - Abate
Romagnoli - Mexes/Alex - Zapata
Lopez

What I think Miha will field against Inter
4-3-1-2

Bacca - Adriano
Bonaventura
Kucka - DeJong - Poli
DES - Romagnoli - Zapata - Abate
Lopez

If Inter lose then Mancini truly is incompetent.

Still think the Atletico style 4-4-2 is what we should go for. Assuming that as of now, montolivo isnt fit/ready for anchor,

It adds another central player to shield the defense, takes the CAM and drops them further for added defensive cover, and allows us to play two strikers(our best players) without sacrificing stability at the back. Without the ball, it's a flat 4-4-2 with say berto and bona as wide center mids and a double pivot in the middle, when we attack it becomes a 4-2-2-2 with the fullbacks doing what they already do currently, stretching the field for width(since the "false" outside mids drift inward.

We can beat Printer if Miha manages to change the mentality. You could argue it's a good thing the midfield played badly last week but the team still managed to win. This way Miha knows exactly what he has to do now.

That's actually an interesting option.

Imagine if Berto and Bonaventura basically share the AM position. 2 CM are fixed, and Berto/Bona take it in turns to switch from inside mid to AM, while the other moves back and the 2 CMs shift, always maintaining a flat 3. When we're under pressure, the midfield goes flat 4 and Adriano stays goalside of the opposition DM.

I like.

So 4312 in possession, with the AM alternating with the attacking side midfielder, and a 4411 in deep defense.

The brilliant aspect is that the opponents can't mark our AM out of the game. Your DM sticking close to Bona? Bona drifts back next to De Jong and Berto quickly takes up the space left behind the DM that's following Bona.

the good news is miha nows in which part of the team we have problems, and he will definitely look to fix the midfield issue under the international break. well at least I hope so..

Exactly. The important parts are 1) we aren't relying on a single anchor(we don't have a proper one), 2) not relying on a single CAM, and 3) we can keep four center mids on the field and not sacrifice one of the strikers, our best players

Theyve been shit as fuck in their 2 games against Atalanta and Carpi we should definitely not lose

And put all this talk about form, who got the better squad etc etc aside and realise that in the end we are Milan and they are still fucking Inter
Thats enough to make us win

Sorry to burst your bubble but as 'shit' as Inter are, Inter still won more derbies than Milan :lol:

Completely true. Still tho, it shows how unpredictable our derby really is.

The milan derby is always unpredictable regardless the quality of the squad.

Field Galliani as false-9

This supposed to change the fact that we are Milan and you're still fucking Inter? :lol:

What does that even mean. Let's be more objective here

We weren't impressive in our openers neither. Can't really make predictions based on either of the teams' form.

But I think Galliani could really make the difference. He should be used as an impact-super-sub in the 70th minute. His pace and skills could really do some damage.

Inter fans always jelly about 7 ucl's...

But i think we will have hard times againts them if we dont have solid mf defensively.

What it means to be Milan? Only true Milan fans know that

What is that supposed to mean? I could start saying stuff like we have the first italian treble or how you guys were in serie b, but where would that bring our debates? That's just silly. So high and mighty because you root for a football club :lol:

you're just a fan behind a computer screen, get over yourself.

I never come here to fight, i come here to get info or to give info - so i will end this at this point. You can go and ramble on if you want to, i do not care.

Oh well, you could say that about anything. There will always be some jealousy in competitive sports between successful teams, whether fans admit it or not. That is probably what starts rivalries anyway.

Gz on your treble.

I think it is so sad and pathetic that you think you are so cool while you should know yourself by now that other people on this forum are constantly making fun out of you. Think about it and come back when you grow up.

Mr. Milanista · Sep 2, 2015

Nothing more sad and pathetic though than to say you don't care, only to show that you do care. :lol:
