What can I say...it's only the first match of the season? Oh, wait, we lost the Supercoppa too. Gasperini was hired as a stop gap for this season only as no one big was available and was going to be replaced by someone with a great reputation next season? He won't even last that long. The Russian league finishes a lot sooner than the rest of Europe, let's hope we chase Spaletti.
When Jose was first in charge, he tried to implement the 4-3-3 I think it was but as stubborn as he was he even knew that he had to play a formation that would suit our players. Let's see if Gasperini the testa dura can learn.
Bagg is only playing, we will still finish ahead of Juve this season

True, Lomba. It was pretty entertaining, though.

Lomba, you of all people I didn't expect to get drawn into Maro's comment. Sure it was entertaining, entertaining for our rivals the ones jealous of our success.

[maro]

Come on, MI - entertaining for any neutral, no? And one or two of your bits of link-up play were pretty flash too.

[Lombardiamia]

Entertaining for the neutral...depends. What is entertainment? Seeing a lot of goals? I dont consider that entertaining. I prefer to see a 0-0 match between 2 tactically perfect teams rather than a 4-3 between 2 tactically hideous squads.

forlan looked pretty good. he will turn out to be a heck of a signing, even if you'll only get two good years out of him before he starts to sulk or age.

If Gasp wants to stick with a 3 man defence then we need to go with a 3-4-1-2 formation. It adds an extra man in the center of midfield and also makes Sneijder play in his favorite position. We could see glimpses of the Milito-Sneijder combination that won us the champions league two years ago and we have to make full utilization of that. Sneijder needs to be in the center of every move but he is too isolated on the left. Forlan already looks like a good bet and it would be nice to provide a stable platform behind these three to allow them to attack at will with support from the full backs and late forays from Stankovic.

Great coaches always know to make changes for the good of team rather than sticking to their believes and formations like Mourinho did in the second season at Inter. If Gasp doesn't then he would be a goner.

Watching Miccoli bend one (or two) past Julio Cesar is pretty "fookin" entertaining.

Cesar's salad was well and truly tossed and Flagg enjoyed every minute of it.

Yeah, but despite his small stature, he's still bigger than malta.
