Chiesa started the very first match of this season, against Juve in Torino. He's played often this year, both league and cup games.

I thought he was just a super sub up until that point. Thanks for clarifying.

Looks like Kalinic said "no, thank you" the small country GDP he was offered to go play in the Chinese Super League.

^^^ I like that, good lads. Speaking of the primavera side, Milan's Cutrone got promoted to the senior side as a replacement for Luiz Adriano, which is very good I think.

Milan announced Delofeu on twitter, on a loan from Everton, and Everton raged cause they claim nothing is final yet. Wtf.

Zamparini, when asked about firing Pioli

“I was wrong to sack him, but at that moment I thought we no longer had the conditions to continue together. I received bad advice from my director of sport. I was eating my second testicle due to the stress. I’d already eaten the first.”

Yup. Kalanic is a no go to China. Either way it would have been a win win for Fiorentina. I'm not keen on Kalanic, but it's better than replacing a striker halfway through the season.

He's a financial flipper essentially, he buys and sells various ventures and amortizes gazillions of euros in debt over a bunch of businesses.

Abate off, Antonelli in and switch the fullbacks. Sosa for anyone. Tell Gomez to not go anywhere outside the box.

Get Mertens sent off somehow. Make it happen Montella.

Tuned in for the second half and has been non stop great action.

Bonaventura has been pretty good today, Paletta too and of course Gigio is incredible as usual.

This is incredibly frustrating, if abate and Gomez hadn't channeled Bonera in the first half we could have won this, instead we'll be in 7th by the end of the weekend.

Maybe Montella should tell the guys that the game starts at kickoff not 10 minutes after.

Would have liked a gigio goal there

I feel like Milan fell into the Montella January Slump (That Sometimes Extends To February); became all too common in Fiorentina last few years - so common that Sousa also adopted it last year but seems to have sworn off it this year so far.

I'm liking this formation, most of all because it allows Big Mario to start.

Advanced stats dorks should invent a new position to properly describe what he actually does on the pitch, something like "box to box forward"

Yeah, it's working well. Plus I think Khedira has been more effective than he's been in a while, and Rincon and Marchisio both would be a good fit as one of the two deep lying midfielders.

I love Mario Mandzukic.
