Whatever happens, we're still in contention for shots on goal champion.

I think we'll win though.

If we win this (something i didn't expect to find myself saying after this summer market), we have a very good chance to jump 4 spots in the table to 7th place.

Teams that are ahead of us:

  • Chievo..LOL
  • Bologna who play Lazio
  • Fiorentina & Torino who play each other.

That's true but Lazio beating Bologna would hardly be a good thing if the aim is a top 4 spot.

At this point the table doesn’t really matter that much. Teams will do well and then not so well. We just need to catch up with the top 4 and hopefully be within a few points by February.

I’m excited about today’s game. Have a feeling that it’s going to finally be the turning point, but Chievo are doing very well and it can be a challenge like the Sampdoria game, as they also played a narrow 4312

I’m staying positive.

Kalishit will score tonight and start against Juve where he'll disappear the whole game. I want Silva vs Juve :(

Montella just said 'I'm sure we'll win the game."

I wouldn't be surprised if the match was fixed, given I believe the relationship between the two clubs is overall quite good. Team like Chievo only have the goal of survival so typically many of their matches would be fixed given they have nothing to gain from it.

We dont have guys with those relationships anymore unfortunately. Relationships are between people, not between clubs.

Really looking forward to seeing Milan without bonucci.

Hopefully we don't concede. Leo needs to step up... literally has been the worst player this season..even without the high expectations

why do we have a different striker playing almost every game? I dont understand how the team is suppose to have a solid core when you have silva start one game...kalinic the next..cutrone or maybe combination of the two.

Milan need a late fitness test for Lucas Biglia ahead of tonight’s must-win game with Chievo.

ffs!

We played without Romagnoli and our defense still sucked.

And now without Bonucci I expect it to suck just as much.

We need to ditch this 3 men defense bs.

Yes, 1 million times yes. I don't believe RR has been disappointing at all. He hasn't been incredible but I don't believe he's the problem in the squad right now.

Han Li is present as well. Looks like he is there to personally fire Montella if it doesn't go well haha.

he's a problem, doesn't have the mobility to make it at LWB.

why do you think montella switched him to LCB (apart from tactical flexibility)

Since when? He was expected to captain during the Bonucci ban afaik.

SKY had said earlier that there was a chance that he wouldn't start. Loca would deputize.

But as rossonero1 said that was yesterday. I thought him not possibly starting was tied to what the report said yesterday.

Anyway, he is starting. :)

When he played LWB there was always plenty of space to attack on his side and he's not that fast. Probably LCB in a back 3 or LB in a back 4 is best for him.
