I would play Pobega once more, this time instead of RLC. Reijnders back on the left. Would be good to try Jovic or Okafor as CF and give Giroud some rest.

Leao, Jovic, Pulisic
Reijnders, Krunic, Pobega
Theo, Tomori, Thiaw, Florenzi
Sportiello

Try to lead by two goals then give Theo, Krunic, Leao some rest

is it too much to hope we get some early goals and Adli can come on to give Krunic a rest?

would also love to see Bartesaghi if we’re leading in the second half and I’m curious about Jovic

Of all our problems, "can we rest Krunic so I can watch Adli" is not one of them.

I think resting Krunic is fairly crucial since he’s played every match so far and 2 for Bosnia

don't care that much who gives him a break but he can’t play another 90 minutes against Verona

I'm more worried about Mike's absence. We'll have to be super far ahead first half to rest Krunic I feel like, because I dunno about Sportiello's passing anymore (sometimes maybe good, sometimes maybe shit). No Mike or Krunic means we can't play our tiki taka out from the back.

As long as Okafor and Musah start, give good showings, we get the 3 and no injuries... We good.

I'd say Pobega deserves more minutes and this is a good game to get them in, and yeah getting a look at Jovic wouldn't be bad.

I'm pretty pumped, we're getting the W for sure!!!

Honda - Kalinic - Cerci
Bertolacci - B. Traore - Poli
Mesbah - Alex - Paletta - Constant
Amelia
Kalac
Oddo - Bonera - Ely - Mesbah
Poli - Muntari - Essien
Birsa - Matri - Cerci

I am going with this one. The worst players in each position I have ever seen in a Milan kit. There have been worse midfielders than Muntari, but the Poli Muntari Essien combo was brutal. I remember everytime I saw that trio in the starting eleven, just knew we will play ugly football, and never score more than 1 goal.

In the past when I accidently matched with ugly girls in tinder, instead of ghosting them, I texted them this lineup, just out of curiosity how they react to shit like this. Sometimes the conversation became hilarious.

boiii, put some respect on oddo's name, he is levels above the others
Oddo was great in WC 2006, so was really excited back when we signed him, but he absolutely flopped for us.

This is not the game to use it

Pioli is a moron I am 100% convinced

Why does he consume all his CBs? An injury there and we will have only Pellegrini to rely on.

I dont like the idea of Florenzi on the left, it was a mistake to go into the season with only him as an option there. He is so right footed dependant it doesn't convince me at all.

Musah is a wing back now?

Why is he forcing things? He had all the freedom in the world to set up the squad the way he wants and this is thr crap we have to deal with now?

I think he wants to set up defensively away in champions league so he’s giving the formation a go.. don’t think it’s the right game for it like others mentioned above ..

Won the Scudetto and UCL with us.
Started in said UCL final.
How exactly is he a flop?
You are right, probably I underrate him quite a bit, he was a starter in all our UCL games that season. I don't know, I just expected more out of him. Upon second thought, he probably doesn't deserve to be mentioned next to these players, should be replaced by Zaccardo/Bocchetti.
