BOOM!

One of the most anticipated seasons in years :D is around the corner and we start with SS Lazio.

In priority order, lets start with the most important thing: Gazzetta has Bonera starting ahead of Zapata.

BS ... i cant see us missing UCL 2 years in a row. I believe we will end up 2nd or 3rd and we might even be in the hunt for a title ;) Juve with Allegri and minus Vidal is weaker i think, unless they land Falcao. Inter probably got better but team cohesion will be a huge issue there again; Napoli i believed have hit their peak and are for the taking. The rest, i dont really fear much from.

So there we go ... FORZA MILAN!

Attention: De Sciglio is suspended for the first game.

My formation:

Abate-Rami-Alex-Armero
Poli-De Jong-Cristante
Menez-Torres (HAHAHAHAHAHAH!)-El Shaarawy

Inter is better than last year and its up to Mazzari now to prove his worth.
LMAO! Are you kidding me? With what reinforcements? Dodo LMAO? Hot head M'Vila who has been completely inconsistent the past few seasons? Osvaldo?

Hardly upgrades. I think our upgrades were better than theirs anyways.

Under the right circumstances Osvaldo can be good.

They also kept their midfield intact; Guarin, Kovacic and Hernanes playing centre is a good midfield any way you slice it.

Its Walter and his archaic, demented persona that holds them back.

Hmm, not really. 1-1, 3-0, 2-2, 1-1, 4-1, 1-1, 2-1, 2-0, 2-1, 1-0 are the last 10 Serie A encounters in San Siro.

Historically we have it very easy against Lazio, losing only five times in the last 20 years and all of those times were away games.

I still remember on 1994, where we we still non-defeated for 55 games, lazio was next at Olympico. I thought we will lose the record there, and it would have gone that way. Gazza and Signori ripped our defense apart but we managed a 2-2 draw at the end! Since then I always fear them!!

Then again a week later, Parma ended the record :( And sense that day I despise the,!!

Have faith, we have Inzaghi at the helm.
The squad are much better than last season minus Balo and team spirit and cohesiveness can be seen during the pre season friendlies.

We should do much better than next season. Hopefully El Sha will stay injury free.

For me it's not like El Sha doesn't know how to score& I think he can get back to scoring again especially if he has his confidence.Pazzo can find the goals also remember last season was just one of those types of years/seasons&Pazzo has proven in the past he knows where the goals are also:smileani:.

If the team can play with the same fluidity as we saw against Sassuolo, Lazio will have a lot of problems. Honda, Menez and El Shaarawy are a potentially potent trio.

Pippo will have his reasons for possibly starting Bonera. Looks like he's going for experience throughout the team. I'll reserve judgement until after the game, when we can assess all of them.

binera and moontari starting shows pippo hasn't a clue. Then, neither does the management.

What do you think a pre-game discussion is supposed to be about then? If not for discussing who and how you think Milan should play and discussing about how other people think Milan will play? Bonera and Muntari being included in the starting lineup by the Gazzetta, and likely by Pippo too, are the big discussion points going into the game.

If you want, then just create a thread called "Bono's corner: the facts of Milan's Serie A adventure anno 2014-2015" and just post the Gazzetta's line-ups and scores without any discussion being allowed. I'll delete every other post but yours.
