I think we have a good chance now that both Alves and Iniesta won't play.

Iniesta is amazing. But they have enough offensive power with Cesc, Thiago, Xavi, Pedro, Villa, Messi, Sanchez etc, so I don't think it'll make a big difference.

Dani Alves is a bigger loss for them. I guess Puyol will take his place and either Biscuits, Keita or Mascherano steps in.

Iniesta is left out is good for us, I think he is the best midfielder of Barca. Cesc is amazing, but cannot compare to Iniesta. Plus the absence of Alves, their right offensive power is considerably decreased.

Pato probably starts alongside Ibra, with Boateng plays in ACM (Allegri prefers him to others). Hope Ibra will shine and Pato will score for us, Pato has a habit that scoring goals right after his return :D

------Ibrahimovic - Pato------
-------------Boateng--------------
Nocerino -- Seedorf --- Aquaman
Zambrotta - Nesta - Silva - Abate

Then sub Seedorf out for MVB, and Urby for Boateng if he gets tired and Robinho if Ibra or Pato are shit. Only reason why I want Seedorf in the middle is to retain or create any form of chance. We saw it vs Tottenham, he dominates as an anchor in CL games. We should not start with 2 35 year olds, we need Aqua and Noce to start with Boateng as CAM if we want to retain any possession and bully Barca. Up to Allegri I guess

Snow white is on her way to Milan, just like her little ones.
They are going in a Fiat (yes, ONE Fiat), because they think airplanes are "too fancy".
Snow white has lost her cojones.
She will be standing by the sideline, scratching her bald head, talking like a parrot.

W/o Dani Alves and Andres Iniesta, I really like Milan's chances in this game.

Our midfield has ABSOLUTELY GOT to perform! We can't afford a performance similar to the display we saw against Fiorentina.

Maybe:

villa--messi--pedro
xavi--fabregas
keita
abidal--busquets--pique--puyol

Or Mascherano in defence, Busquets in mid and no Keita.

forgot about alves being out....

if puyol is at RB, i really want to use robinho. He's our best player off the left side and if he catches puyol isolated (aka our midfield can get ball to him quick) i like our chances.

Maybe it's worth using him over pato and saving pato to run at them around 60th

I like that.
Robinho gets past Puyol.
Robinho passes it in to Ibra.
And Ibra faces Biscuit.

i can only imagine ibra's reaction to when busquets grabs his face and drawsa foul...

3 feet away from zlatan

what i'm most worried about is CM. We were HORRENDOUS v. Barca first game at holding a ball. I'd say we need to use both aquilani and seedorf, but i don't think we can handle that defensively. Frustrating.

If we get more positive effort defensively from robinho and boateng, maybe, but that's a mixed back. Robinho works hard for a forward defensively but still is just that. Boateng is a mixed back and could draw a card.

Somehow this is frustrating.

2006/2007 Italy were World Cup winners and Milan were king of kings in club football, now Spain are World Cup winners and Barcelona king of kings in world football...

I am uneasy about Boateng starting. He doesn't have skill to hold possession and will likely get robbed. I would prefer a more technically competent midfield (Seedorf, Aquilani, Nocerino and Van Bommel).

Wouldn't mind seeing Boateng as a late sub... But I agree, don't want him starting this game.

I think we need prince starting. Barca is the best team in terms of holding ball possession so there is no point fighting for possession with them. We might as well give that up. All we need is strong defense and FAST counter attack. That's why Prince, Pato, and Robinho will be crucial while Seedorf might not be good. Besides, he trained separately today so maybe he's not in the form to start.

Fuck fuck fuck! We're gonna win this shit people! Without his papa Iniesta, Messi is just another midget. Without Alves, their defense...well, still sucks sweaty balls.

The referee is the big shit spot on the field...we'll have to score 10 goals so that the final score is 2-0. But I know the guys can pull that off...

WE'LL END UP AS THE FIRST PLACE IN THE GROUP, I KNOW!

Forza Milaaaan!
