AC Milan are struggling a lot lately. Problems have been noticed in the December friendlies and continues also when the league resumed.
As reported by the daily Turin-based newspaper Tuttosport in this morning's print edition, both Milan and Inter are going through a complicated moment. The Supercoppa Italiana in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, represents the first lifesaver of the season.
The two teams are lagging behind in the league while the Rossoneri have already exited the Coppa Italia. Here is what is worrying at Milan (but also at Inter):
- Mental stability: the drop in tension in the Italian Cup was an alarm signal.
- The negative performances in defense: too many distractions and too many goals conceded.
- Too many injuries. The KO series weighs on the coach's choices.
- The alternatives are not proving to measure up. Never convincing when called upon.
Meanwhile, Pioli asks for more sacrifices from these 4 AC Milan players in particular.
