With the new coach in place, some things might change in Milan's tactical setup. Coach Paulo Fonseca has been working with the available resources since July 8 and is gradually putting together his squad. In the friendly matches played so far, the Portuguese coach has maintained the 4-2-3-1 formation, interpreted in his own way. What has stood out is the position of Ruben Loftus-Cheek, which is more withdrawn compared to what was seen last year with Pioli.
But the English player isn't the only one who might change roles; Gazzetta dello Sport writes: "Fonseca changes: Pulisic as playmaker, Loftus drops back." The American winger could also find himself in a more central area of the pitch, behind the striker who will be Alvaro Morata, but especially to make room for the inspired Samuel Chukwueze on the right. There’s also a slight change for Tomori, who has always played on the left side, now moving to the right to better utilize his strong foot and leave Pavlovic with the left foot available.
