For Milan to win they need Nesta, Silva, Pirlo and Pato to be 100%. I reckon all 4 will play but Pato only has the 80mins from Friday in the last 2 and a half months in him. Leornardo will have to chance Silva because there is no alternative, they will need his pace and strenght against Rooney. The other thing Milan need is United to go 4-5-1, because the games they have really struggled in this season is when the opposition played two strikers, even Friday, Udinese with De Natele and Flores caused problems when Silva went off.

The previous games will have no bearing on this tie, save for a bit of motovation on Ferguson's part. The last two times United came to Milan it was for return legs with the ties as good as over. I think it will be an intersting game, if United do go 4-5-1. Milan will be strong down United's left with Abate and Pato while United should get joy down their own right with Nani against Antonini (who is better at rb) and who won't get help from Ronaldinho. The midfield's will cancel each other out I think, Milan will have more possession but not possession in the final third of the pitch.

Milan's biggest problem will be Dida (remember the 1st & 3rd goals in OT), the health situation of Nesta & Silva and then upfront where Ronaldinho will be self indulgent and anonomus and Huntelaar who has 6 mins of CL football this year. I'd expect there to be goals in it and United should end the tie on Tuesday. 0-2 United.

:lol:

Anyway, good to hear about things from a Milan perspective and that they have problems at the back. If Zurich can beat them then so can United! Looking forward to seeing how Ronaldinho does in the spotlight...not seen much of him since he went there.

Not a mention of Beckham. :o

Nah he's just out of favour by the sounds of it after taking himself off too brazil a few weeks back. Don't worry though, he will make a Nani-esque comeback :bow:

Its a domestic ban.

Vidic has been training for the past 2 weeks but is still refusing to play.
