I don't think Cassano should start this one, even if robinho doesn't make it. We should play Pato upfront alone with 2 of Aquilani, Boateng and Urby behind him. Midfield should be 1 of the 3 mentioned/Seedorf + MVB and Nocerino.

It was pretty close that he came to Barcelona so he should be back if not against Napoli def against udinese.

Not at all, I just don't think Allegri will start him against a strong side like Napoli. I'm pretty sure he'll come on as a sub though..

Really love that people expect ES to get all kinds of playing time.

has anyone said "must win game" yet? :D

Pato with a hat-trick.

Meanwhile, when we need to draw a game 2-2 I shall open the thread. Yup, consider this a new rule.

I'm not sure what he's showing in training but if he's showing anything, i would consider starting him to send a message to cassano

YES it's napoli an important game but precedent must be set. Cause Cassano can do a lot more...

if i have to see bonera on the bench again, i may throw up. if our two forwards are injured and boateng, i should hope SES is at least on the bench.

he was apparently doing awesome in training a few days ago and scoring a lot of goals, so maybe he gets a chance

I dont think the the bench would be that bad, we would have-
Amelia, Dorf, SES, Yepes, Zambro/TT, Antonini, and then the last spot is a wildcard, maybe Kingsley, Valotti, or someone else, hopefully not Bonera

I honestly think that using Antonini in the midfield is not a bad idea, he isnt great defensively but he has pretty good attacking skills and runs a lot, Dorf is a quality option, our defensive depth is covered, and SES has looked good in training and could be given a chance to show something

I like the lineup above, but I don't feel like Cassano and Pato work well together. It's funny that Robinho is pretty much the one guy that works well with everyone.. Really wish we had him available, but I'd rather we wait until he's completely healthy.

I agree with this except i'd drop Cassano for Emanuelson and play the xmas tree formation. Cassano should be rested plus he hasn't played that well recently, not to mention if he starts, we have no attackers on the bench.
