"Adrien Rabiot is back after serving a one-game suspension, but another game of rest could be on the cards for the Frenchman, which worries AC Milan and Massimiliano Allegri. As highlighted by today's edition of Gazzetta dello Sport (see photo below), the good news for Milan is that Rabiot will be back tomorrow. The bad news, meanwhile, is that the Frenchman would get another suspension if he were to receive another yellow card."
"There's an easy way to prove Rabiot's importance to this team: Milan's only defeat in the league came in the season opener against Cremonese, when the Frenchman was still a Marseille player. He arrived a few weeks later and was immediately put in the starting XI (matchday 3, 1-0 win against Bologna). Furthermore, in the eight matchdays in which the Rossoneri were without Adrien, they picked up just 13 points, which is an average of 1.62 per game."
Adrien Rabiot will return after a one-game suspension but would face another suspension if he receives a further yellow card, creating selection dilemmas before the derby. Milan must either risk a yellow against Parma or bench him against Cremonese to avoid missing the derby. Milan suffered its only league defeat before Rabiot joined and collected just 13 points in eight matchdays without him (1.62 per game). With Rabiot in 17 matches Milan recorded 12 wins and 5 draws, earning 41 points at 2.41 per game. Allegri describes him as a complete player who attacks, defends, creates and presses.
