Palermo-Milan 30.11.2008

1- Yes.

2- No.

3- No.

i agree, most likely its going to be:

Abiatti
Zambro Bonera Maldini Janku
Gattuso Pirlo Flamini
Ronnie
Pato Inzaghi

but knowing Carlo, Seedrf is going to play in midfield alongside Gattuso and Flamini, considering the latter played the full 90 mins on Thursday.

but i'm not getting the correct formations out of late so screw it

PALERMO-MILAN: THE CALLED-UP PLAYERS OF CARLO ANCELOTTI
11/29/2008

MILANELLO - These are the 21 called-up players of Carlo Ancelotti for the match against Palermo: Abbiati, Dida, Kalac, Antonini, Bonera, Favalli, Jankulovski, Kaladze, Maldini, Senderos, Zambrotta, Ambrosini, Cardacio, Emerson, Flamini, Pirlo, Seedorf, Inzaghi, Pato, Shevchenko, Ronaldinho.
Unavailable players: Nesta, Borriello, Gattuso

No Gattuso? Crap. Looking at the 4 goals conceded in the last 2 games. I would rule out a clean sheet. Bonera had a bad day last week but I think he should start alongside Maldini. I just can't take Kaladze for the moment.

best solution:

-----------abbiatti----------
-zambro--bonera-maldini-marek-
------------pirlo( IF fit??)--------
----Flamini-----ambrosini-----------
-----------Seedorf------
------Pato----Dinho-------

Very good one mrki!

MILANELLO – Following the morning training, Carlo Ancelotti during the press conference spoke about numerous topics related to the clash against Palermo and not only.

THE CLASH AGAINST PALERMO
“It’s a difficult and delicate away game which comes after another away match and therefore there's the need to recover also from the athletic profile. We will need a great performance. Rino will not be available due to a back problem, but Ambrosini will be back. We have 8 defenders available, therefore we shall see who to play in defence. However, Senderos is fine. In the last games we saw some limits of our team, limits which we hope to solve especially with the management of the advantage, by remaining more compact and united. Palermo is a tough team, they have players of quality who can created problems especially in attack. Tomorrow's doubt is tied only to Seedorf’s availability on the pitch, we shall see with which setup to play. Last year at Palermo we did not do well, but we had played very well and bad luck did the rest. Ambrosini? He can play, we shall see. The players carrying a yellow card are many? I will not look at this when choosing the formation. The best players, according to the condition, will go on the pitch.”

THE SQUAD’S MOMENT
“Often we are not very balanced and this is a problem which like I said we must solve. There are games where we must close the match before. The absences of Kaka and Gattuso? The squad is covered for any absence. It’s an important moment of the league, so we target to make as many points as possible now because very difficult games await us."

RONALDINHO AND KAKA'
“He did more than we could have expected, he arrived in particular physical conditions and surprised everyone. Kaka is scoring fewer goals? This year he is playing in a lower position and his condition is good. It’s normal that an attacking midfielder has more defensive duties than an attacker. In the past season Ricky was playing as a forward. Going back to Ronaldinho, he’s an added value, for this reason he was purchased, to give something more to this team.”

THE INJURIES
“Considering today’s football in these years we have taken care a lot of this aspect. If there are problems, they are tied to the stress and travelling, and not to a bad management of the athletic or the medical work on the players.”

RONALDINHO-DEL PIERO
“From the set-pieces point of view, it will surely be a nice clash, but when they meet there might not even be a free-kick in their favour. They are two extraordinary champions and their qualities are absolutely innate.”

Gattuso is injured.

We need a "vintage" Clarence today, if we are going to take full points, and importantly the CD pairing must ear a clean sheet, or at least limit the opponent to one goal.

Pato should find space, especially on the counter, and I hope he is clinical.

Looking forward to an open, attacking game, with Max likely to score from a corner, or R80 engineered (set) play.

FORZA MIIIIILAN!! Let's regain 2nd spot, and maybe even errode Inters point advantage if they slip up with Napoli.

Inter leads 2:1 against Napoli just before HT.

Cordoba, Muntari;Lavezzi

FORZA NAPOLI!!

Napoli is playing like crap,they only had one chance thank god Lavezzi made the most out of it.Inter is playing suberb and that second goal was just brilliant,something Milan wont ever achieve.Watching Inter makes me jelaous,they are playing so easily so simple.And even when they make a goal they still search for the second goal while Milan makes a goal and then defend like crappy cowards....pitty just pitty.

If we drop points today, I think the Scudetto race will be all but over. A physically dominant team like Inter with such a deep squad doesn't make many mistakes during a season.

Forza Milan!

Well that is somthing that wins the scudetto: simply play and agression, which we lack. Especially now when Pirlo has returned in first 11 and Seedorf is playing CM alongside him. Torino had 5,6 clear shots on goal becouse Seedorf-Pirlo are not capable of covering the space, we cannot let that happen today.

Coward mentality I have explained milion times, but you guessed it right.

So its the lineup I wrote before, the best one we have for this game I think. Only concern is that Pirlo will not go far up enough, and we need him to do so. That is why Milan played best with Flamini-Rino-Seedorf, as Seedorf transformed to CM or AM, making us play 4-2-3-1. Pirlo cant do that, or does it extremly rarely.

forza Milan, lets win it! we are now on -6 from Merda
