Chicago Fire vs AC Milan

Well, though it is a friendly, I think we should open a thread to discuss the game...

From acmilan.com:

ANCELOTTI: 'Gilardino will start against Chicago Fire'
7/26/2005
CHICAGO - Carlo Ancelotti held a press conference when the side landed in Chicago: 'We are pleased to be coming up against America football, we hope we can put on a good show, it’s our objective to present a good image. It won’t be an easy match as the Chicago Fire are well-advanced in their preparation, even more than Chelsea. As for the line-up I can say that Gilardino will start alongside Vieri. Gilardino represents Milan’s future and is following a great tradition of attackers

Good that we will get to see Gila in his first game (Gol Tv, at 9pm eastern...I think), and I hope that he scores on his debut.

Vieri will partner the young Italian international, but in all honesty, I would have wanted to see the youngster (name starts with an A) play up front with Gila.

We can expect another start for Rui Costa, unless Carlo springs some surprises, with Seedorf and Max in for Gattuso, who will sit this out with a red card...or do red cards apply to the next friendly match?

Good thinking by Rino if that is the case, as he gets a one match rest!

Hope to see a more dominating Milan, at least for the first half...the MLS team is at the very least, half way through their season, and so will be fitter, but we have more class, and we need this to tell in the first half, by scoring at least 3 goals.

I hope in the 2nd half, we begin to rotate players.

As always: FORZA MILAN! Lets show the Fire the true meaning of an inferno...

When does the game start?

Yes I do hope seeing Gila playing his first Game with Milan, and I see some changes depends wat formation he is gone start with if he does go I think he will try the 4-3-1-2
Ele
Mozart( if cafu sits) Nesta Maldini Kala

Ambro Pirlo Seedorf

RUi Costa

Gila Vieri
These guys would start off if we went on the 4-3-1-2 and I guess he would rest cafu not wonting to risk him for this tour.
I would wana see Ambro in and maybe second half we can have Stam in and Costa, and have Serghino, Vogel, and the new rookie

if u guys in in middle east u can watch Jazzer sports or ART Sports 3 they would be showing the match
