gonna be a tough grind, should scrape a 1-0 or 2-1. Wouldnt be surprised if we only draw tho, Paloschi is looking pretty good at moment.

Chievo are coming off an impressive win against Udinese, we're going to have show up to get a good result.

Conte will continue the rotation:

-----------Buffon-------------
-----Ogbonna--Bonucci---Chiellini-----
--Litch--Vidal--Pogba--Marchisio--Pelusso--
------------Tevez-----Quag/Vuci---

looks good. hopefully quags though and not vucinic.

good news for the milan fixture:

Three-game ban for Balotelli
Mario Balotelli’s post-game confrontation with the referee has cost him a three-match ban. He’ll miss Milan’s games against Bologna, Sampdoria and Juventus.

milan is appealing though.

I havent been liking our defense lately, i mean we've always had trouble finishing, but the goals we are conceding are hysterical

So would you say the Verona goal was Isla's fault, i didnt catch a good look of it but that is how it seemed from what ive seen, he left his unmarked man to get to an easy ball from the corner.

Haven't bothered to watch replays but according to what I've read elsewhere Isla was the one to blame, yeah.

Jury is still out on Isla, obviously it's still relatively early days but i haven't seen much of an improvement on Licht in terms of his contribution offensively, and he's never going to be as good defensively.

Last i heard, Pirlo was starting vs Chievo. But he might get substituted. :)

Clearly Conte did not like him leaving, and hence the new substitute rule change.

I think this episode may make it harder to renew his contract, Pirlo is probably not going to stay ig he's not going to be a starter. I don't know if we can afford that, given Pogba's rise to prominence and Pirlo himself losing a step.

He didn't do anything wrong per se, but when the coach creates a new rule because of something you did, it's sort of redundant to say it was a faux pas.

Not sure how well they complement each other, but Tevez needs a rest and any line-up which doesn't include Vucinic means much less wasted possession. Besides, both Llorente and Quag deserve more playing time.

I can dig it.
