Former AC Milan head coach Arrigo Sacchi has spoken to the microphones of La Gazzetta dello Sport about today's football, and what the current Rossoneri manager Stefano Pioli is lacking. Here are his words:
"Bayern play well, Manchester City too since they started pressing again. Guardiola called me in November, at the most critical moment. I told him: 'You don't press anymore'. Pep improves the leagues he plays in, because he transmits knowledge and courage . As my Milan did. In fact in those years the other Italians also won in Europe. In the last 10 years nobody won, Atalanta and Milan are the teams that play better. I already admired Pioli, but he had never conveyed an identity so strong to one of his teams. La Spezia, with Atalanta, makes the most systematic pressing. Nobody has 11 men who are always active like Gasperini".
