Not gonna be easy with Bona Berto out.
A close look at the table shows we've actually been decent this season, beyond our place in the table. We've played most of the top half teams, which probably has a lot to do with why our season has been up and down. We still have to play juventus, atalanta, sampdoria and roma. If we can get two wins out of those four games, id be satisfied. Milan still has to play each of the bottom 4 teams in the league. Those will be the games to grab points and sneak our way into the asses of the teams above us on the table.
Gotta win here first though. Fuck injuries
We should be able to field a team worthy of beating Atalanta. With berto, Alex, bona and monto (maybe) out I'll be thinking a team like the one below is our most realistic option.
We can not move from the 4-3-3
Donna
De sciglio
Roma
Mexes
Anto
Kucka
Dejong
Poli
Cerci
Adriano
Niang
Bacca has played a lot the past few weeks and I think maybe 15-25 minutes for him at the end of the game is all he needs. Idgaf if we win 1-0 on the 90th minute. I want my 3 points!
Donnarumma
De Sciglio - Zapata - Romagnolli - Antonelli
Poli/Montolivo if ready - De Jong - Kucka
Cerci - Bacca - Niang
Many players missing, but I want a 2:0 win, Atalanta are shit in attack, and we play in home.
One or the things i agree with Miha is that De Jong a Monto can't play together. Monto has lost his speed to play Mezzala like he used to when he was young and had healthy legs.
need a comfortable win here. if we get that, even juve with their bad form should be possible. that would make 5 league wins in a row...cant remember when that happend the last time
Think it would be 4 in a row, but it's still been a while since that happened. No need to let up here, this is a game we should be winning.need a comfortable win here. if we get that, even juve with their bad form should be possible. that would make 5 league wins in a row...cant remember when that happend the last time
With Bona & Berto out ... we only have Honda as creative midfielder, i hope he can step up his game
Also enough with Gigi, Sinister should give a chance to Lopez as well
Lopez
Abate - Mexes - Romagnolli - Antonelli
Honda - De Jong - Kucka
Cerci - Bacca - Niang
Edit : forgot about Monto ... he can replace Honda spot if he can recover from injury on time

Atalanta play a simple 433 which means we need to worry about their fullbacks overloading our defense. This would have been a disaster during the 4312 phase, but now that we have protection (our wingers tracking back) it's not an issue.
The question is how do you replace Bonaventura? Niang maybe won't track back as much and he definitely isn't match fit. There isn't any other option at LW (which is strange since we usually have an abundance in that position in the past few seasons)
Do we go 442 or stick with what's working?
