Most important game remaining of our season.(i dont consider the CL important as we have no chance)

Mourinho must win this to gain back some credibility.

Winning would also destroy much of Milan morale and hope for the Scudetto.

Must win, no excuses.

No Figo and Muntari please.

Well Mourinho was brought in for the CL, so technically the CL is very important for him.

With regard to this match, Samuel should be back. Will be intersting to see who partner's him. Cordoba's form has been shaky, whereas the usually error prone Burdisso and Materazzi have looked good recently. Chivu should also be fully fit. Also, Adriano will be back, though he has probably lost some of his fitness so not sure if he will start, but hope he does (the only alternatives are Cruz and Crespo...) Hopefully Vieira comes back too in place of Muntari.

Why everyone is repeating this big lie? Mourinho wasn't brought here to win CL. He was brought here to get this team togeather again after incrediblly big loss of shape after Liverpool game. It was repeated many times and Moratti + Jose said that too.

Walter Samuel,
It's no secret that Moratti has a burning ambition to win the CL and return the club to what it was like under his father, especially now that he has domestic dominance.

Wouldn't say we've no chance in the CL, Mourinho could guide us through. It will be difficult. Get by Manure and we have a great chance of winning it.

Everyone's saying this deby game is a must win, I don't think it is. Depending on Juve's result tomorrow a draw could do us fine against the rossoneri.

Obviously a win would send out a message we mean business, but a draw wouldn't be the end of the world.

That being said, I think we should win against AC, we'll have great confidence goin into it and they won't after todays result.

Its gonna be a cracker....

Draw is absolutely a minimum result, we just can't lose to Milan twice in a season.

Derby is not just a game. Its a special game and a must win for many reasons.

I dont give a crap about other results. This is the most important serie a game of every season.

Winning the scudetto wont be as good without atleast winning one derby.

Wouldnt make sense if he didnt. Makes no sense to play him consistently in every recent game only to bench him in the derby.

He has clearly benched Maxwell and seems to be our starting LB now.

For Milan its a definite must-win situation so the pressure is on for them to close the gap.

Azz is right, We have to win at least one derby match for the Scudetto to taste even better. Losing twice to Juve last year was like an annoying scratch at a place you couldn't reach.

Adriano has been doing extra cardio fitness in training so i wouldn't worry about his match fitness...

AC Milan's website has noted that the x-ray indicated on Kaka's foot is a sprain, not a fracture. He is still in doubt over the Derby but will definitely miss the Italy match.

Balotelli, Cout
I have a good feeling about this derby. I think we can win it. But Milan always is unpredictable in these derby's.....specially with players as Pato, Ronaldinho and Beckham....we must be careful with him.

I have a feeling Stankovic will score a goal, Matrix will play and Adriano will do well. I hope this will be true. Matrix is always at his best in these kind of matches. Since Bonera is suspended we can also hope Santon continues his great work.

Wonder if Mourinho will gamble with starting Adriano??

We have to win this, 11 point gap and it's season over for "golden balls" and co.
