One more thing, As much as I love ODDO for being rossonerro I really think Zambro needs to play on the right and Grosso on the left...

Maybe now The Don will pley 4 -4 - 2 With Zambro and Camo on the flanks
True, this can work (although i have a slightly different idea ) ,
and also Del Piero mustn't start the matches. I mean, i love him and all, but he is not someone who can play from the start in such important matches. It's different when the team is Catania or Livorno, but against France or Ukraine , Del Piero will be perfect to enter the game from 70 minute. Capello used him that way and DP was deadly back then. Del Piero is still ready to play top football, but for 30-45 minutes mostly.

Pippo is another problem.... we all know what can Pippo do but in the situation Milan is in (with the forwards) , Pippo is hardly getting rest time in Milan and he's not getting any rest at all with the NT, especially with Toni out.
Donadoni is forced to play with Del Piero-Inzaghi up front---- they are still classy players and they used to form a deadly partnership...but the accent is on USED.
Now Pippo at 34 and DP at 33 are hardly in position to play match after match and still be great.

I don't know what will be the smartest thing to do in Kiev. The defense has problems as it is but they can still do a solid job, but the midfield and attack..that's a problem.
Maybe Donadoni can use the 4-3-2-1, like against Scotland, when they destroyed the Scots.
On that match Pirlo didn't play and Italians still controlled the match with Gattuso-De Rossi-Perrotta in midfield and with Camoranesi-Di Natale behind the striker (Luca Toni). It can be done again on Wednesday with Aquilani or , even better, Ambrosini taking over Gattuso place and Inzaghi instead of Luca Toni.
Something like this :
Buffon
Oddo-Canna-Barzagli-Zambro
Ambrosini-De Rossi-Perrotta
Camo - Di Natale
Inzaghi
