Pato and kaka are back, which is bad news for arsenal. Pato is ridiculously good, i think he’ll score a goal. Kaka is always dangerous. Milan are so deadly, I think arsenal are in serious trouble, Unless they can fix that defense they are doomed. Even so, Kaka can tear them apart no matter how good they are. Hes a specialist on injured defenses, just watch him @ home to united last season. Ferdinand and neville out, vidic barely able to play and carrying injures into the game, ronaldo on a bad ankle, and no solid DM at the time on top of it. If arsenal’s defense isnt solid, they are doomed. As for offensively, all that it takes to shut down arsenal are 2 players. 1 with a good engine to shut down fabregas.. just close him down quick and he cant play. Then a big guy to mark adebayor, keep him from winning the headers. Milan should be able to do both things. I predict 1-3 Milan win, cause arsenal dont have the depth. Arsenal require their first team, and dont really have too much quality in certain areas to back up injuries. The midfield NEEDS fabregas, and no decent FB cover is available. Persie is a nonfactor, more like a frequent short term loanee than a squad player.

PS: Eduardo and Gallas really deserved red for their actions. And Hoyte shoulda gotten one too.

If Ronaldo gets a straight red for getting in the face of a player after being provoked and DOESNT even touch him… then Gallas and Hoyte should have straigh reds and suspension for actually kicking nani. thats BS. then eduardo tackled nani and came closer to hitting him in the groin than the ankles. plus it was 2 footed. knee high + 2 footed challenge should = red, but again its BS.
