Yesterday, the derby played between the two halves of Milano did not smile in favour of Stefano Pioli and his men. Actually, the Rossoneri did not look like they were ready for such an important game of the season, especially with Romagnoli in the defense who suffered from Romelu Lukaku.
The midfield is certainly also not in a good form as there was not much done to stop the Nerazzurri in their tracks. Lautaro Martinez and the Belgian striker were just too fast and too strong to handle yesterday.
Many newspapers commented on the derby, obviously. Il Giornale points out the mistakes in defense and reports that Chelsea's loanee, Fikayo Tomori could be the one to fix some mistakes.
In fact, in the coming games, the young English centre-back will gain more space to prove his quality and that he deserves to be a starter for Stefano Pioli.
He is a physical fast player, well structured and also tactically prepared. In short, the man that coach Pioli asked the management to bring in the January mercato.
It is possible that Alessio Romagnoli, considered among the worst in the field yesterday in the derby, can be benched to leave room for the English number 23, perhaps already from the match against Red Star, continued the report of the newspaper.
Sometimes, when things do not go your way, it is a must to try to change by sacrificing even the untouchables.
