Both great prospects, with no news from them ever since last year :P

I also don't know Ryo. Like you I was also impressed with De Vito's performance especially with his self-confidence. I don't know either if he is a regular player by Primavera now since the new website has no line-up from Primavera games, not like the older version.

About Verdi, Galliani said that he was too young to join Primavera and I also think that we are well covered upfront makes him difficult to get chance in senior team especially we don't play wing forward right now (his usual position) and in this position we also have another young player (elder one), Oduamadi. So, maybe he will get chance later.

Milan did training 11 vs 11 with Fossati play as playmaker in the centre of the midfield teamed with Merkel who plays as ACM behind strikers against team in which Calvano (right DM/CM), Strasser (CM) and Rodrigo Ely (CB) played.

Nice to see how Fossati, Calvano and Ely played especially Fossati that could be useful for us due to lack of creativity attribute from our midfielders. Ely is also interesting talent. He seems not bad although he lacked of games since he only trained with Primavera for about a year without having game except friendly game or alike (aside Primavera games). Merkel in that game gave one assist but unfortunately to the player who stand in Ely's area of responsibility.

Welcome to the forum Еленче , I look forward to reading your posts. For sundays game I hope we'll have Nesta and Flamini play from the first minute so that we can avoid another terrible defending display and of course Cassano coming on in the second half and providing an assist. I hope we'll see a lot of goals

Nesta & Flamini aside (as i would hate risking either of them if not fully fit)
the Lecce game is already promising to be better than the Udinese match because:
- Bonera will not play


ok that's it

sorry i couldn't help it....

now seriously:

- Bonera will not play (even if Nesta doesn't make it, it will probably be Yepes)
- Ambrosini is back to cover in front of the defenders
- Seedorf will not play (i hope)
- Lecce is no Udinese, especially on the attacking front
- Cassano will have more than 30 mins in his legs (so that's 2+ assists guaranteed )
- and finally Bonera will not play.....sorry but i cannot stress enough what a + that is for us

Looks like Bonera may be our left back tomorrow going on what Allegri said (sorry LebRN )

Flamini and Nesta being back is huge, and with Ambro returning from suspension, we should essentially be back in business tomorrow.

how can you laugh in a time like this???? after saying that bonera will play??? :P

no seriously, i'm not sure if i should be happy Antonini is not playing or sad that Bonera is playing....i think it will be safe to stick with sad

can someone please find out where Favalli is ...and beg him to come back

Bonera

Jankulovski, Bonera, and Kaladze have turned into absolutely torrid defenders.

We sold 1, 2 to go...We should use this Mercato to announce they're for sale

As far as the game tomorrow, not sure if Flamini will start, as it will be either he or Strasser that takes the LCM spot. Ambrosini will be holding midfielder, and Gattuso on the right. As for ACM, I really hope Robinho/Cassano occupies that spot, and not Seedorf.
For LB, I'd honestly rather Oddo than Bonera, as despite what the forum says, I really don't think Oddo is that bad. He's played really well in the 1 match he started, and 1 friendly game in Dubai.

Anyways, Inter vs. Bologna now. Forza Di Vaio!!!

This hurts soo much seeing Leo coaching and doing well with Inter.

Come on Bologna draw at least.

And thats why I miss and liked Leo. Fckkkkkkkkkkkk you inter.

Bologna had some chances but that retard Gimenez blew them all by either his selfishness or inability

dammit now we have to worry about inter again i was so sure they werent even gna make a cl spot this year ****... bottom line we need to cream lecce 2moro and buy some defenders and a midfielder in january!! galliani must be a little more concerned now seeing how inters doing well again, santacroce,criscito and diarra/lazzari is what we need..

damn merda won again, but we can still win the scudetto as long as we play our games well.

and I don't mind bonera play as long as it is not the crucial CB position. lecce should be a piece of cake. with pato and ibrahimovic in form, lecce is no match to milan.

we do need to take advantage of the summer mercato to reinforce the midfield and LB, if we want to beat teams that are not lecce.

Yeah, that's what happened when he was given a complete team to work with. Not trying to take away any credit but apart from the first game against Napoli, their next three opponents are relatively easy IMO. Let's see how they do it against tougher, bigger clubs, especially in UCL.

Anyway, Allegri said that our next six games will be crucial. Agreed with him. If we can maintain the gap from the chasing pack for the next six games, then come February we can turn our attention to UCL knowing we have some cushion in seri A.

So let's start it by defeating Lecce.

Forza Milan
