Seedorf to make Milan changes

Clarence Seedorf has confirmed that he will make several changes to the Milan XI for the game against Udinese tomorrow.

The Rossoneri go to Udine on Saturday afternoon, but ahead of their match with Atletico Madrid in the Champions League on Tuesday, the Coach has revealed that he will tinker with his starting line-up.

“I’ll make changes,” he told a Press conference. “We have another really important game in five days’ time, and we have to take into account the players.

“But this is going to be an important test for us. I want the team to continue with the same attitude they have shown since I’ve been here.

“We’re going to find a very dangerous Udinese team tomorrow, but we have to focus on ourselves first.

“Their strengths are clear. It’s normal to have ups and downs as a club, but we’re preparing to face the best possible Udinese.”

The tactician then commented on Keisuke Honda and not focusing on the League table.

“Honda will play tomorrow. Tomorrow he’ll be ready to make some sort of contribution. A lot of players have found adapting to Italian football difficult, but Keisuke is a great player.

“He is available and will undoubtedly grow in his role.

“It doesn’t help anyone to look at the League table. We just have to strive to do as well as we can on the pitch and then see what happens.

“We’re going into every match with a good attitude. We don’t need to be reminded every minute where we are in the table.”

Seedorf concluded by looking ahead to the European clash with Atletico Madrid, highlighting Diego Costa’s danger.

“He’s a very dangerous player when he gets the ball and drives towards the box. He’s a striker in form, that’s for sure.

“Sometimes it seems as if he’s not in the game, but then, when he comes to life, he’s dangerous.”

100% Robinho will show up to this game hungover

Honda on the right

Why is Seedorf adamant on not letting Honda play on the centre?

the sheer number of rested players is encouraging for the Atletico game

Just like a bunch of amateurs.

 

This defence is a disgrace.

This team is a disgrace.

Seedorf needs to bench Emanuelson....I think he has started almost every game since Seedorf started.

This was like going back to Allegri again. I think Seedorf rested a few players for Atletico tho

I don't blame Seedorf, our first team is ok but our second team is rubbish. Players like Mexes, Birsa, and Robinho have to leave and we must find good replacements.

many players are super incompetent to even play football let alone wearing milan jersey.

it pisses me off these idiots earn millions a year, more than doctors engineers or scientists earn in multiple years.

i can watch a better game played by kids in a parking lot than this.


thanks galliani berlusconi braida and allegri for this royal mess!

Didnt I read somewhere that Milan had much higher expenses than Juve last year? This club is run so poorly...

well its going to go like that until the end of the season... after that our management should look at all areas and make a big-ass black list.

next season from me is the final straw for galliani. i have lot of sympathy and respect for the old man cuz its not all his fault but obviously, his alliance with lowly clubs like genoa, parma and all its ridiculous. '


i wont accept anything lower than milan fighting for scudetto next season  

Nothing short of selling half our squad at the end of the season will save us.
