last games
6th milan: WDWWW
13th cagliari: WLLDL

not available
milan: conti, musa, romag + rebic (yellows) + calabria (not sure)
caligari: pavoletti, pellegrini, nainggolan


last game of the season and nothing to fight for both teams.
with next season to start in 5-6 weeks will pioli use starters or backups (and who is a backup - bona, biglia or primavera)??

for first team would be expected easy win 2:0/3:0

I'd like to see some heavy primavera usage.

The young players that have been on the bench a lot- Maldini, Colombo, and Brescianini should play from the start, and I'd like to see a few more (Capanni, Mionić, etc) make the bench.

Especially with a short offseason, don't really want to risk injuring any of our key players in a game that doesn't mean anything.

Fuck I haven't even thought about the 5 week break before the new season begins. That feels so shitty... going from watching Milan every third day in CL champions form to waiting for 5 weeks to watch them again.

like 2-3 weeks free time for our players and then 2-3 weeks of preparations for new season. good thing is we should have a lot of rumors and some signings during that time.
also since 2nd week of august final part of ucl and el should happen - for like 2-3 weeks - wonder how teams from final and semifinals will organize preseason :)

The departing players will need to wear the shirt for the last time, no matter how bad they failed.

Originally wanted to start Colombo too, but Bonnaventura has played 183 games for us and deserves a proper sendoff.

Wtf why would you change a formation that got us playing our best football in 8 years. And change to the one that destroyed our current season?

I'd like to see Leao play the full 90 minutes. First minute from the wing and then move him to striker when Zlatan gets tired around the 70 minute mark.

Also, I'd like to see some of the Primavera guns, namely Brescianini and Colombo.

We shouldn't change formation, but we should change the coach that led to this, right?

If we start players like Laxalt, Paqueta and Krunic it would be a sign that we're not selling them. At this point any moderately serious injury to a player would block a transfer. So if we're already planning on selling a player they won't play on tomorrow in a meaningless game.

So if Paqueta plays, that's a big sign that he's staying for next season I think, but simply based on how often Pioli chose Bonaventura over him I think the writing is on the wall already.

I want this:

Donnarumma; Calabria (Saelemaekers); Kjaer, Gabbia, Theo; Kessie (Krunic), Bennacer; Saelemaekers (Castillejo), Paqueta, Leao; Ibra;

Rest Hakan, easy last game. Maybe Pioli will give some minutes to Jack for his final game with Milan though.

Yes and yes as that coach would still have played this same 42whatever formation but just with higher intensity

If I was a mod I would have banned the 4-3-1-2 from this forum. Have people not learned that Berlusconi's formation is shit?

2012/13: Allegri: 4 games, 4 points

2013/14: Allegri/Seedorf: 18 games, 27 points

2015/16: Mihajlovic: 8 games, 12 points

2019/20: Giampaoloball: 5 games, 6 points

It's the worst formation to use now. Everytime we tried it we lost a lot of points. Today it's played with wingers or side midfielders.
