A short but testy month for Serie A as we play the Derby della Mole away this weekend, then host Milan and finish the month at Bergamo against feisty Atalanta. We start the second leg of group play in the Champions League heading out to Moscow early in the month and hosting Atlético at the end. Add another international break and it is a busy month for the players. We have yet to gel as a side. Let's see if November sees that happen. Serie A 2 Nov - at Torino 10 Nov - Milan 23 Nov - at Atalanta Champions League 06 Nov - at Lokomotiv Moscow 26 Nov - Atlético de Madrid
all we gotta do is beat Lokomotiv and we are thru to next round right? i really hope we use last 2 games to let the bench get some minutes. Its important everyone plays CL at some point. I know 1st place is the goal, but in recent times, it hasnt really mattered. We end up getting a hard team anyway
Typically Spanish & English teams get the easier teams because they have more teams and they actually make it out the group, unlike Italian teams
Bentancur to start as Pjanic still isn't ready. Ramsey tried as mezzala on the right side. De Sciglio supposedly set to start on the left to give Sandro some rest. We need to win today
Can't believe Sarri started Pjanic, hope he doesn't re-injure himself. Still have no clue why Matuidi is a starter.
Yet another poor first half. Nothing from the midfield. The Bernardeschi experiment is an absolute failure. Time to make changes.
