Then we probably have our two next positives...

Weird that the club still haven't released a statement.
Maybe waiting for another round of tests to ensure neither is a false positive?

We can only hope. Or pray, if that's your thing.

That Hakan at Casa Milan thing was not true. The dude who tweeted it took it down.

Well then we know whose positive. Huge blow to lose two of our best players, while still having Saele, Rebic, and Bennacer out.

When will it end? If they are positive - if that rumor is true - then we have the following for Cagliari:

Donna
Calabria - Kjaer - Roma - Dalot
Tonali - Kessie
Samu - Diaz - Leao
Ibra

Not bad at all, still a solid XI but we have very little bench. Hauge, Daniel and Colombo the only offensive. Mid we have Meite but he'll only have joined. Then Kalulu and Musa RB/CB. Very very thin. Let's hope we start getting players back and no more covid :(

Leao out for suspension.

It is what it is bro.

See it that way. We're playing since two months with half the starters out. Our team is used to it. So don't worry too much. No matter who steps on the pitch, you'll always recognize the basic idea of how this team wants to play and express football and of how everyone knows exactly what to do.

Bench is short with so many out, true. But I have no doubt that even if it stays that way until the Atalanta game, we'll still see a team playing good football.

In the end, it's out of our hands, and while I'm surely pissed and feel gutted, I won't let it get stronger than looking forward to another coaching masterclass of Pioli, leaving all our opponents in awe and asking themselfs how the fuck we are still winning so much games with so many out.

Swap Leao for Hauge and we likely have our lineup vs Cagliari.

All these absentees are getting tiresome, but it's reassuring that we're always able to field a dynamic and strong first XI.

Vito Angele is a fraud.
But sky reported that Theo and Hakan didn't train today, they didn't say why

Vito Angele. Then he took it down.

Then everyone went apeshit.

Why would he take it down?

If it's true then it's most likely Hakan and Theo since they didn't train and aren't injured? Or did he assume they were positive because they didn't train?

I think Rebic hinted that he's negative. He will probably start training soon and then depending on how bad his symptoms were, he'll be on the bench.

Took it down because the other Milan journalists started tweeting that its unethical to do something like that and that we should wait for an official statement. Not because its untrue.

He only said two cases. No names.

That's true. We will prevail, and Ibra will return to form.

I am guessing he took it down because there was some backlash from other journalists. Not directly per se, but they posted saying that we prefer not to speculate or provide scoops when it comes to the health of the players. We allow the club to announce those things.

Let's wait. Either way, we'll be fine. We'll figure it out.

And @TorreGigi reported that Hakan was at the HQ, which he also later deleted but still replied that "no news yet on Hakan", as if he still believes that Hakan is at HQ.

Apart from Leao who is suspended, Id also play Kalulu over Calabria since Davide is a yellow away from suspension and I wouldnt risk him missing out on Atalanta game..think Kalulu can easily play vs Cagliari

Roma plays Lazio and Juve plays Inter. With some luck, those will be draws and we will win.

I agree, a blow to Juve now will demoralize them and send them into crisis. Losing against Inter and then hopefully Napoli will leave them around 10 points away.
