Boateng> Robinho? Bonera>Mexes?

Allegri is officially retarded

i am cringing at boateng starting

Yeah whoever was saying he shouldn't start....I think he was justified!!

Fail thread.

score wondergoals against nobodies

but seriously,what did Boateng do other than that goal?nowhere to be seen on the game,specially in the first half.I have yet to see him make a single though ball,for example.

on a side note,nocerino was really good imo,Bonera was ok,Abate was great and Taiwo was a bit disappointing

perhaps boateng ... bonera started becausse robinho / mexes... were not 100% match fit...

but then again... i felt yepes should have started. ahead of bonera..

nothing against boateng, he is a great guy, great player but...

when i see boateng enjoying luxury in that AM position without having to face any kind of stiff competition ... i feel...
guy gets injured out for month ..comes back, without full match fitness .. gets green light by allegri to start matches right away...

allegri needs to make boateng to play as B2B midfielder at some point... so it paves way for robinho as AM...

or hopefully in january or july we get someone like eriksen to fill that position

i miss kaka!!! so badly!!

We aready knowledge that jesp, in winter, we ll have boateng b2b when squad deepens

But if we sign Montolivo, our initial target for LCM, then Boateng will have nowhere else to go except AM since a player with better passing (Aquilani, Seedorf) will be used for RCM

why exactly??, what did boateng do aside from that goal???, pretty poor performance and he was nowhere to be seen against one of the worst teams i've seen in CL....

boateng has no buisness playing as TQ, anyone who thinks he's doing good as TQ is an idiot....

pretty much agree with everything you said here except for the bonera part!, you said yourself it was a game against nobodies, so doing ok against nobodies is considered good??, i think not. he also made a couple of foolish and uneccesary challenges outside the box giving the "nobodies" some dangerous free-kicks, this isn't good..


with bonera we all should've known how things work with him by now!, he starts a game and after a half an hour or so you say to yourself: actually this lad is doing good, he's not as bad as people make him out to be, he's ok, then a bombshell is dropped, bonera makes a huge mistake/losing his marker completely/falling asleep/ left for dead and the opponent score and we start cursing at both him and alllegri for letting him start in the first place....

conclusion: bonera is never good..

@#%# bonera nearly cost us 2 goals! Luckily Abbiati was having a good day.

i think MVB should take a rest while boateng drops back to RCM, Aquilani CM and Robinho at AM in our next match

Milan should just use Nocerino in MVB's position and use Boateng on the right and Aqui on the left

i don't think moving nocerino from the left where he is thriving atm is a good idea. If anything, it should be aquilani who should take MVB's place and act as a deep lying playmaker with support from boateng on his right and nocerino on his left.

Yeah, I agree. Leave Nocerino on the left for the time being.

Allegri absolutely made the right choice today in playing Boateng over Robinho. Robinho has just returned from injury, and we have a very busy schedule involving a midweek and weekend game every week for over a month. We needed to win, however there was no reason to go out to destroy them on the scoreboard and even with Boateng at attacking midfield - still his preferred position might I add - we completely dominated possession and the tempo of the game.

Mexes meanwhile is returning from a serious knee injury, why should we rush him back? My question is not why Mexes didn't start, but what is holding Yepes back, as he should have started next to Nesta in my eyes. Credit where it is due, Bonera had quite a good game. Not flawless, however he played the role of the aggressor well when our line was high and had a few predictable problems when pushed deeper. I still think we should ship him off to Corsica, however he deserves a few kind words.

BATE were so poor in possession we can't really say that Taiwo was tested, however he did nothing wrong which should be acknowledged. As it stands, he's suffering from the lack of understanding with our team when going forward that Abate did before he settled down into the team under Allegri. Talent will keep Taiwo going, however it is time spent together and an intuitive understanding that will bring the best out of him going forward. Until then, we can't ask too much more of him and he's yet to be properly tested.

Emanuelson is yet to enter into a situation, the Barcelona game aside, where he has a role in a meaningful moment for us and it's hurting his ability to break into the side unless he can contribute when the whole team is pushing forward or defending so as to counter-attack with purpose.

Maybe because Robinho just came back from injury and shouldn't be rushed?

Or that Boateng could be effectively used in this match considering he won't be playing 2 more matches due to suspension?

Lets put it this way, not really the biggest fan of Mexes, but I would rather play a him with a broken leg over Bonera.

In a debate between Robinho and Kp Boateng, I think you are all missing the point. Neither of them are quality enough for the Milan attack.

To my Milan friends I can truthfully proclaim an appreciation for Ibra, Cassano and Pato (curse his injury woes), the rest can all go get fecked.

When you say the Milan attack, are you referring to the attacking midfield slot or the CF/SS position

Or are you just saying Robinho and Boateng are just not good enough for Milan
...tread carefully

thanks for the neg rep in me sharing an opinion..

Anyways, I'm not a noob.. as far as I'm concerned, attack is attack and I meant attack on the whole so that can encompass: AM, SS, WF, ST, CF

Where KP is concerned, his technique should limit him CM or CM box to box at the most. He should not be up in a attack, he wastes possession.

As far as Robinho goes, since you're looking for clarification, he is not good enough for Milan at all. He is does not have the acquired awareness form an adequate attacking partnership with any of the players I previously mentioned. He most assuredly always picks the wrong option in possession and needs about 10 opportunities to score 1 goal.

Disagree Robinho has been very good at Milan, one of their best players atm. Did you watch any Milan games this/last season?

my thoughts exactly on Boa,Boateng's abilities are limited to a 3 man mid role.

I have to disagree with your opinion of Robinho. He's actually the unsung hero of our attack and adds a whole new dimension to the way we play. He's really our only player who consistently runs at defenders and his movement causes opposing defenders all sorts of problems. I'm really not sure if you've watched enough Milan games to make a judgment on this as most ppl would agree that Binho has been immense for us.

You're spot on with Boateng though, he's pretty average as an attacking midfielder. Hopefully in a deeper role he can be more effective. Tbh my best formation wouldn't include him in the starting 11.
