Il Corriere della Sera in this morning's print edition discussed the AC Milan French goalkeeper: he remains a champion, but he is currently going through a rough period.
After Udine, he doesn't seem the same anymore: he conceded two almost identical goals, completely missing the technical move in setting up the save, both against Zirkzee of Bologna and Mazzitelli of Frosinone.
Some argue that the racist insults in Udine have taken away his concentration and confidence. If that's the case, it would be human and understandable, although it must be said that so far, his season has not reached the top levels of previous ones.
Look at the mistake on Candreva's shot in Salerno, in the 2-2 draw on December 22. Maignan was and remains one of the best goalkeepers in the world, but at the moment, he is playing below standard. The challenge for him will be twofold: for Milan and for himself.
