I know back to back matches within 3 days are tough.

But winners don't whine and whiners don't win.

Champions manage to do unimaginable and ridiculous stuff in the eyes of the mediocre.

Kinda worried about this match, reminds me of the Porto one

Squad is already exhausted and had a difficult match just 2 days ago...depleted squad with no rest

I hope they can pull it together

Tonali rested

Kessie rested

Back line has cheat code

We are in a better spot than we were against Bologna

Are we though? I feel like we're crashing through waves, our sail torn to shreds and our mast broken. Pioli trying his best to keep everyone on board but the weather is too fierce. Maybe the storm will ease up and we can fix the boat and sail calmly again but right now the sky looks pretty damn dark and evil.

No FBT. Ankle problems from that Soriano challenge. I'm not sure if we'll risk Theo from the start, but seems likely now. Midfield of Tonali and Kessie is my guess, Bennacer has been playing too much lately. Giroud up front with Leao, Krunic and Saelemaekers behind him. Krunic can help with the physicality in midfield but I worry he might isolate Giroud too much and won't offer much in transition.

Tomori needs to get back to his best, he's been a bit shaky past few games. Really hope for a win but this might be a bit too hard for us with all the injuries and games back to back.

Ballo Toure had a very good game against Bologna.Defansively he is same as Theo. I'm glad that Pioli didn't experiment with Calabria at LB.We have become shaky in defence since Mike injury. Charisma and leadership alone means tons,Mike have that and of course GK skills.January can't come soon enough ,but we are sailing beautifuly.
Torino are not a naive squad and we have to be very careful.

I am very pleased with Ballo's passing!

i am not too optimistic either. current form, injuries, schedule...draw at 4x odds is so tempting. kinda ruins the watching experience if i bet on it though. hope we pull through somehow.

Interesting that we use the third jersey again, but I actually quite like it, all in black.
Starting eleven is not bad, we can definitely win this just have to be concentrated to avoid stupid mistakes.

Forza Milan!
