AC Milan earned three points in the league after beating Lazio 2-0. However, now eyes are on the next challenge which is Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League competition. The Rossoneri team of Stefano Pioli will travel to Germany and Peppe Di Stefano has told us the latest news coming from Milanello. Here are his words:
"Milan lost the derby against Inter and already had a massive rotation in mind, almost a test to gauge the depth of the squad. The experiments in the recent matches have expanded the squad, confidence has grown. If you only call a player once every 4 months, that player knows they're a backup. But if you field them every two weeks, you give them trust."
He added:
"Milan has more quality in the alternatives. Milan was reborn after the derby. Those in Milan know how hard the derby hit, it seemed like the beginning of the end, but the Rossoneri stood up and played well against Newcastle and the matches that followed. Against Lazio, there was a feeling that Milan somehow had to win it, and they did well after Loftus-Cheek's injury. By the way, there is discomfort in the adductor. Instrumental exams will be done tomorrow morning. Hopefully, it will be just that; only a discomfort, as was the case with Maignan, because Loftus-Cheek is a top-tier player. Today, Milan trained. The only doubt for Dortmund is Adli or Pobega. If Adli were to play, he would have Reijnders and Musah alongside him. In case Pobega were to play, Reijnders would take on the playmaker role. For those wondering why Adli might be on the bench, it's because Pobega is more physical and for the former Bordeaux player, playing three matches in a row in 8 days wouldn't be ideal."
