AC Milan has regained order thanks to one key factor: Allegri's new code. The Corriere della Sera reports on the rules the ex Juventus coach has set for his team and the overall Rossoneri environment.
Allegri’s code at Milanello: all measures
At the Carnago training center, there is a new atmosphere after a disastrous season both on and off the field. Since July 7, 80 days have passed and a silent revolution has taken place, aimed at one main goal: creating a group and turning it into a team.
Allegri has intervened in many details, starting with meal arrangements. No more small separate tables, only a single square table to prevent the formation of separate cliques. Everyone must sit together and share their thoughts… in Italian. In fact, nother rule requires speaking the Italian language, a measure also supported by Zlatan Ibrahimovic, according to the newspaper.
The pre-match retreat has become mandatory again after years of being optional. Finally, the away dress code: players, staff, and cooks must arrive at the stadium in formal attire, jacket and tie. Allegri sees this as a message of belonging that involves everyone. He often repeats: "We are Milan, let’s never forget it," as relayed via MilanPress.it.
Technical-tactical aspect
The Corriere della Sera also covers the technical-tactical side. The three-man defense has provided greater solidity, thanks in part to new midfield leaders like Modric and Rabiot, who have raised the squad’s average age (from 25.3 last year to nearly 27 now) but are helping the team mature through their example. And then there is Allegri himself, a winning coach who "transmits confidence and cohesion," making everything easier.
