One of three things will happen:

1) We will lose miserably and Montella will get the sack.

2) We will scrape by with a win while playing like shit.

3) We will play and win convincingly and Montella will be given some artificial life.

I’m rooting for the third option!

it's between option 1 and 2, it'll depend how shit genoa are.

if they're a semi decent side, they can get a result against this milan.

Last chance for Montella to wake up.

But we all know it's gonna be option 1 or option 2. :head:

Milan is holding on Montella for now. The Genoa match on Sunday will be important [Sky].

Genoa are one of the worst team over the last 2 seasons in Serie A and that's saying something considering how many bad teams there have been.

If they were in any other league, they would have been relegated by now.

That's how bad they are.

I'm hoping for option 3 - suddenly, somehow, this team will click!

Thug-life coaches handle different formations and get shit done with what they have on hand. Why does he get to have his make-or-break game versus a team in the 17th place at San Siro? What has been going on in the last two months has no significance or what? There is no longer a single thing to discuss while this person is still here. He's done three weeks ago. Milan holding on to the person for now is Milan shitting on their badge. Milan 69 - 0 Genoa, Milan still shitting on their badge by holding on to the person.

End of story.

Forza Milan.

So 343? LMAO

Did someone beat Montella's ass in PES/FIFA with a 4231 that it became taboo for him to use it?

Also I'd play Loca over Biglia in a 2 man mid.

If we don't win this one I want Montella not only to be sacked but have a lifetime ban of setting foot inside the San Siro :lol:

But I'm hopeful, let's turn the tide finally.

Even if we do turn it around, it feels like we are already too far behind to clinch a champions league spot, which is really disheartening. We cannot afford any slip ups, and with a lot of the season still to go, it seems unlikely that we will not have a few blips.

Europa League should become the priority now.

"AC Milan have lost 4 of their last 6 matches against Genoa, and won 2."

I'm going for a 2-2 (Musacchio header from a corner, Taarabt angled shot after he does a simple dribble past our whole defence, Kalinic toe poke from a goalmouth scramble, Bertolacci nutmeg through Donnarumma's legs).

2-0 win.

But not a convincing 2-0 win.

I'd rather have Andre Silva for another game. You gotta give either striker a more meaningful run instead of changing it every other game, can't develop a rhythm and a healthy amount of confidence that way.

A striker without either of those isn't going to do damage.
