Milan vs Udinese

Coppa Italia quarter final:



I think we should go with something like this:


Gabriel

De Sciglio - Mexes - Rami- Emanuelson

De Jong - Cristante

Saponara - Honda - Robinho

Pazzini

Not too sure about Cristante, but if he is going to play vs Atletico, then its imperative that he experiences games of a similar magnitude.

I think Seedorf should experiment as much as possible, and use this as the lab to perfect the team as much as possible for Atletico. I don't care if we lose. I'd honestly rather not be in Europa League next season, as that would allow us to focus solely on Serie A and maybe we have an injury or two less. And there is no major financial incentive with Europa League as well, so..

im actually enjoying watching us atm...Seedorf

this is beautiful


inb4 we concede 4 goals

We are playing beautiful football.

we are playing good possession football but its a shame that we have some hopelessly incompetent players like nocerino emanuelson, etc. who cant make one decent pass without being intercepted by opponents.

hope seedorf realizes this and just cut out players who cant play basic football.

I don't think nocerino would've played had Cristante been in good health (he has flu).

oh i see...

would have liked to see poli play instead...

my biggest fear now is that, since seedorf is playing attacking football in which we need to have more possession, there arent enough players who are good at possession of the ball.

montolivo kaka poli honda de jong apart nobody can keep the ball well, distribute ball without mistakes. even monto is a liability at times. i m wondering how seedorf will improve this.

We have gotten progressively more terrible as the match wears on... It's a shame since we started so strongly...

I missed the first half..

It has not been a good game so far in the second half though. Seedorf should start making changes.

There goes Europe.

I saw that coming. Really horrible game we've been playiing so far this half, and they made their substitutes at the right time. I don't know what Seedorf is waiting for? Clearly our level of play has dropped. Time for fresh legs.

And Honda comes on now... About 20 minutes too late.

Whats the point of bringing on players in the last 5 minutes?

Very disappointed with Seedorf, he should've subbed in earlier. Instead he pulled a Conte. Also should've had someone creative in that midfield. Nocerino shouldn't start for us EVER.

Only Serie A and CL now

Seedorf had no choice but to play Nocerino, Cristante got the flu before the game. Our team needs to adapt to meet Seedorf's expectations not the other way around. Our players should develop better fitness so that they can continue running the full 90 mins. Also, we clearly need depth options.

This was a not a good game. We had a good start, but never really capitalized on that. The same issues we had with Allegri are still there. But Seedorf has only been here for a week, so I'm not blaming him right now. He is no miracle worker and I didn't expect that from him either. But, moving forward, I hope he learns from his mistakes and is flexible.

And like I said before, I don't care about Europa League, so I'm not bummed. All I ask for is improvement (or at least the willingness to improve). And I am fairly confident that Seedorf will do that.

Well, not really. We could have played with Honda from the start, or brought him in at half time, or at the 60 min mark, when things were obviously going downhill. But he started making changes after 80 mins, when we were trailing. That's not really gonna do much, is it?

But like I stated in my above post, I'll allow him room for error.

this is one of those things to come for seedorf and he needs to find solution. its hard with current squad but we have few capable players to keep up for the rest of the season.

whatever the situation is, with current 4-2-3-1 nocerino muntari should never ever play. even with the guys on the wing robinho especially and emanuelson i saw them make awful lot of mispasses.

cant afford these kind of mistakes. thats why for me if all players are back .. like SES, robinho should be like 3rd or 4th choice.

honda should be regular.

1. I think Honda was being rested because he's not at full fitness yet.

2. I don't want us to get into the EL and I doubt Seedorf does too.

3. We still have a few retarded players who drag the entire team down. If Seedorf renews Emanuelson's contract, I will be extremely disappointed. The guy is shit.

yea by now emauelson has got plenty of chance and for me, pace apart he has got nothing to offer. he is a suspect in defence. the pass is horrendous.


i thought even de sciglio has been poor in games he has started so far. was just making so many nervous passes. i still dont understand why our players make passes where the opponents are near our players. just pass it in space where our players are. thats one of the reasons why i want our players to be mobile and not be lazy and stick with defenders.

The biggest positive so far has been Balotelli. He doesn't dive anymore, and he is actually being much more active.

Wow really guys make Nocerino the scapegoat for this match but completely ignore Mexes doing utter shit and being out of position for the first goal....Mr. Calamity has struck again and yet again no one says a word of how utterly shitty he is.

I am also pretty sure this was a good game by Nocerino not much that he did wrong.

Mexes needs to go out, we should try to sell him before its too late. Nocerino played well on the ball but was bad off the ball, his defensive positioning was bad (maybe because of lack of game time). Its clear we need squad players for our midfield that can offer speed when needed.

On another note, I liked Balo's performance, Seedorf might just be the one to help him make the transition to world class. Rami also played a good game, he made very good tackles. I think Zapata + Rami is our best defensive partnership at the moment. However, I would like it if we bring in some of our primavera centre backs; this leads to my question: Is Luca Iotti any good?

Both Iotti and Pacifico were impressive in the pre-season and I feel either could be brought up...or both hell 2 for 2 get rid of both Mexes and Zapata they are both big liabilities and I honestly feel if they are getting playing time after all the shit they do why not risk letting the youngsters try their hand it wont be much difference in my opinion just we would get rid of like 6m in wages.
