""Tomorrow [tonight] everything can change in an instant. Santiago is doing well, he works hard for the team. It's not like he comes on and does well against Fiorentina and then has to play," he said. "Then against Pisa he doesn't have a good game and then he has to be left out. You're either good or you're not good. Gimenez is a good player, he's always scored goals and he will do them against Milan too.""
""He's improving his condition, he was out for quite a few days with the toe problem. We expect a lot from him, he has extraordinary technique . If the same players play, they'll know each other better and maybe we'll play better.""
""Gimenez and Leao will start up front together at the New Balance Arena, but in addition to Nkunku getting back to 100%, Christian Pulisic's return could flip the hierarchies. The Serie A Player of the Month for September is expected back against Parma on November 8th. The American is expected to start from the bench in that game, but a reshuffling of the options up front is possible.""
Allegri will start Rafael Leao and Santiago Gimenez up front for the match in Bergamo. Leao arrives in form with three goals in his last two league games. Gimenez remains without a league goal but is described as hardworking and historically a goalscorer. Christopher Nkunku is returning from a ten-day absence due to a stubbed toe and is not yet at full fitness. Christian Pulisic is expected to return on November 8th against Parma and may start from the bench, which could prompt a reshuffle of forward options.
