Dybala should get out of Roma after this season. He had a shit choice of clubs in his career.
Well Mourinho did say that he would be out of Rome if not for injuries. But as it seems no one wants to give even 20M for him.

Rudi Garcia is in the verge of being sacked today according to multiple reports. Igor Tudor is one of the main candidates for his replacement, but I have also seen Walter Mazzarri's name being thrown in the list.

It would be nice if they waited to sack him until after our match against them.

Leao is out for 20 days at least. He will miss Fiorentina's game and probably Borussia too.

I think Tudor would be good for Napoli, so let's hope it's Mazzarri with his 343/352

Tudor had an interesting run with Udinese but I'm not sure if he's good enough to coach a team that wants to win Scudetto.

I guess we'll find out soon.

Atm you get Tudor to get rid of Rudi Garcia ruining the team. Tudor is one of the best options out there and the season still isn't even at the half point. Their main objective right now is finish top3 and minimize the damage Rudi did

So no Giroud or Leao for them against Fiorentina.
Yes. Giroud is expected to be suspended for 2 games (at least). So, he should miss Frosinone as well.

They have enough firepower upfront. Okafor and Pulišić can still manage to be dangerous against most teams, and their midfield is mostly ready to play, some of those players can even play on the wing (like in a 442, that would be very Pioliesque)

Pulisic has been garbage for a while now. He's scored some goals to save his life, but in overall he's been underperforming since the beginning of season while he's had a streak of few great matches. Okafor isn't one to solve their attacking issues.

I'd even say that Milan needs someone better than Giroud up front, as I consider the latter to be a backup at best.

Rumors that Pioli has a month to save his job. During that time, Milan will play vs Newcastle, Borussia, Fiorentina, Frosinone and Atalanta. The main target is going to the next round of CL.

Yeah, it makes sense to sack him once their season is over :lol:

Pulisic atleast has scored some winning goals along with Giroud and brought points. Now having to rely on Okafor and Chuckcheeze when OG and Leao is out that is a big task. I believe now its so much harder for them . There's huge pressure for a win, for Pioli. If they can't atleast win 1 from Fiore and Frosi while we play Rube and Napoli we will see a UCL collapse and Pioli sacking.

If somebody is so-called garbage a period amount of time that doesn't mean they'll stay garbage forever. It's not that I think Pulisic is some kind of great player, but he can surprise defenders. He is not totally without skill.

I still believe Milan will finish fourth. That was my point. It's not like they need the full squad to win games, but they do lack a Lautaro/Osimhen up front to be title contenders against this Inter and this Juve.
