Ancelotti announces change in midfield...

Good points ACMILAN1983...cant argue with you on those...I accede to your greater wisdom...

You know, I was thinking the same. How on EARTH did Carlotti get the idea of moving Max to defence from? This is the only place that that has been discussed! **** GUYS THIS IS AWESOME. But does Carlotti speak English?

Hey Carlotti if ur reading this, PLEASE KICK GATTUSO OUT OF THE TEAM AND GET BALLACK

i think it is not too harsh to say ancelotti has to go if milan do not win at least one big title next season. milan got the players to win it, and most of them are versatile too. yeah i agree with the idea that pirlo's defensive quality is questionable, he lacks physical stature in defending. i would like to see seedorf or vogel in that position and move pirlo a bit forward or seedorf/vogel partnering pirlo in defensive midfield position.

how about this formation: 3-1-3-1-2

dida
stam nesta maldini
seedorf
cafu pirlo serginho
kaka
gilardino shevchenko

seedorf's main duty is to defend, so it takes off some of pirlo's defensive burden. now we are alive on the wings with cafu and serginho, but they should not forget to help the defence. With this line up, our strikers will receive plenty of quality crosses or passes from all part of the fields: centre, wings.. ancelotti is stupid if not maximising the aerial power of gilardino and vieri by locating players like: cafu,serginho or jankulovski on the wings , instead of using seedorf and gattuso on the wings!

That’s good line up Rando and the formation is pretty good but having Seedorf or Vogel at this point I ant really trust them 2 in front of the Def maybe if we could have Ambro and see how well Vogel plays there if he is capable of cuttin out all the balls and winning them back and workin 120% of his life that could work.
And then need more of Kaka and Sheva to come back and bring the ball up front Janku and Serghino are the best on the LM and they could both do pretty good there only thing is now who can cover for cafu and how long talk about it.
But will see what Milan comes up with in the next couple of weeks.

I don't think the placement of Seedorf plays to his strength . . . Seedorf is a guy who can feed the ball and create offense when the attack runs through him and allows him to funnel the ball forward is when he is most effective . . . . with that formation he won't have that ability . . . not to mention he does have a great shot.

yeah u might be right philly chris, i think vogel/ambrosini are the best players in DM position. i have no hesitation putting ambro there. on the wings, seedorf/jankulovski can alternate with cafu/serginho. while ruicosta can alternate with pirlo or kaka.

i think the important key is do not put pirlo on DM(defensive midfield) position by himself! he can play as DM with one player partnering him there or play as MC(midfield centre).

thats true having someone like Vogel and Ambro u missed out on Gattsuo they would be good next to him some even coverin for him but we dont wana give so much space in the middle

What we are really seeking is something this team doesn't currently have . . . which is a defensive midfielder that can also move the ball forward to the attacking midfielders or even the strikers . . . . the only guy who I think could do it would be Maldini since he is tough defensively and can really move the ball. I guess Makelele (spelling) is another guy of this mold . . .

The best out the Daira of Lyon that i can think of him now that is pretty good and young and will be big time like Desilly he was remarkable when he was for milan was strong wall front of the Def

i like randos formation though i prefer to use my players
