Anyways with Rudiger possibly coming in we'll have too many cb options, but we're kinda short in the middle of the field..i feel like Pioli could try Kjaer as a DM..i feel like he's got the tools to play there..physically really strong, rly good long passes

Want to say one tactical thing. Oftenly my nat side played with 2 wingers in 4231, rebic right perisic left. But during the game they also occasionally switched sides depending of momentum.

No reason why Milan cant do that with Rebic and Hauge for example...

Firstly, there is no reason to put Hauge in first team. He is unexperienced, been playing well only in norwegian league. Maybe the potential is there (haven't seen it yet), but for now first team football means too much pressure for him. Take a look how Colombo or Maldini look like when put under too much expectations.
Secondly, polish NT did the same several years ago (we had two decent LW: Krzyn?wek and Kosowski, while we had none decent RW). Playing with two LWs in first squad (with one on RW position) mean playing with 10 players. I'd prefer having young talent like Saelemaekers there instead of wasting LW talent on RW position.

I think he wouldn?t cope with pressing well enough as a mid. As crazy as it may sound I?d use Roma for such an experiment.

We are playing dynamic mids, can't have slow kjaer as your midfield

Why do we consider Kjaer as a DM?
We have 4 players - Bennacer, Kessie, Tonali, Krunić (who surprised me with his decent performance yesterday). Also Gabbia has a past on DM position + Pioli tested Calabria there.
For now Kjaer looks like 7th option there.

Honestly don't know why we let Pobega go. I thought he went to Spezia because we had another midfielder coming. With no more transfers there (Soumare?) I wish he stayed

This guy is amazing. His reactions to the Rio Ave VS Milan penalties are so funny.

Finally found a good YouTube channel of a Milan supporter who speaks English.

What kind of decent performance Krunić had last night? He was invisible even against fucking Spezia so what we can expect with waaaaay better opponents?


Not saying that it's his fault, he's not good solution for double pivots position.

Weird as it sounds I think Rudiger on Loan will be enough for us the season. As well as that if anything maybe a guiding hand for some experience in the midfield will help us. From what I saw yesterday I think Leao can be vice st, his positioning was decent inside the box and he seemed to enjoy himself more there.

Come on. Two of the best passes of the game. Both would have set up goals for better finishing. Don't be like that. Give the guy credit if he deserves it. It about performance not name.

I'm getting SMS flashbacks from this CB situation.

Preparing myself for nothing.

Not that these idiots know anything

Tutto - Milan-Kabak: the Rossoneri must raise their offer, at 18-20 million it can be closed

For days, Milan have been in talks with Schalke 04 for Ozan Kabak: as ********** explains, the German club has dropped from the 25 million euros requested at the beginning, but the Rossoneri will still have to raise their offer. This deal could be closed at 18-20 million.


Tutto - Milan, Rudiger's ok but the agreement on the engagement must be found


According to reports from **********, Milan has received the yes of Antonio Rudiger, defender coming out of Chelsea, who would be happy to return to play in Italy, where he has already worn the Roma shirt. The player would land at Milanello on a dry loan, but first the agreement on the salary must be found since the former Giallorossi in London earns 5 million euros net per season.

Same. I wanted him out for the whole summer but now I must admit he proved himself to be a useful viceKessie against small teams like Spezia - just what we needed.
I'd prefer Bakayoko instead of him, but we must be realistic, he won't come and I don't believe someone like Soumare will come today. So I'm fine with Krunić as long as he plays like he played yesterday. All in all he will be a 4rd option on CM position and will be playing against Benevento, Sparta Praga or Celtic.

What, you want to send Hauge to the Primavera?
Hauge played both LW and RW in the past, he even moved over to the right side several times in his short stint yesterday, creating good movement up front and making himself playable for the ball.

No. I want us to use him carefully, just like we used Saelemaekers in january.
For now I can't see him becoming a full time starter for us.

Did you see his numbers as a RW? They are poor if compared to his numbers as a LW. He isn't a RW, he just can play there. Well, De Sciglio can play as a RW too...

All I'm saying is Hauge isn't a starter and can't see him being a starter this season, maybe he will surprise me, maybe he won't. Thinking about switching a formation to one that will accomodate both Rebić and Hauge looks strange to me.

Very sensible post. We need to ahold Hauge in a sense from the pressure. On the left Rebic will do that and he can come into his own in his own time like Saele is ATM

Ok, your comment about the first team confused me. If you are talking about the first 11, then I can see your point at least. But I wouldn?t be surprised to see him getting more and more starts as the season goes on. Also, he looked more confident during his debut than Tonali, who played in the same league last season, did in his debut.

The surprise of the day at Milan home could be the return of the flame for Mohamed Simakan, central 2000 class of Strasbourg @Gambino

Probably better for him to go on loan now and grow there by playing consistently. I think that's better in the long-term
