The AC Milan side won an important match against Genoa away from home, which was not an easy one, against a team that is definitely in good form.
The three points are significant, with the league table looking better: Milan have made up some ground on a few rivals and also extended their lead over Juventus and Napoli.
The team managed the match reasonably well. In my opinion, they were too cautious in managing the result after going 2-0 up, especially because you then have to contend with a squad that does not have enough quality all the way through.
A strong transfer market campaign is needed...
In the end, Hutchinson, Terraciano, Jashari and Estupinan came on: the squad is thin, and the substitutes are not of particularly high quality.
This must be a point of reflection ahead of January: to manage certain matches better and the season in general, Amorim will need a major transfer window.
AC Milan also needs a full-back...
Meanwhile, there is also some big news: the Milan coach has decided to rely on Musah, playing him out of position at full-back, rather than on Bartesaghi and, above all, Estupinan.
The latter had been his 'obsession' until a few matches ago: yesterday, he was left on the bench for the third consecutive time, and the fourth time in the last five matches. It seems that the coach has now abandoned his desire to win the gamble on the former Brighton player. And he is sending the club a message: a full-back is also needed in January.
Cisse is "AC Milan's Ramos"
Cisse's incredible fairytale continues, although by now it is more than a fairytale; it is reality. Eight goals, always decisive. A goal every 80 minutes in both the league and the Europa League can no longer be a coincidence, writes Calcio Mercato. He still has room for improvement: because he is 20 years old and because he needs to become more involved in the build-up play and bring greater intensity to his performances. This way, he can become even more important. He has an exceptional quality: knowing how to be in the right place at the right time.
That is a quality Goncalo Ramos needs to rediscover. His goals are still missing: at Marassi, he took two defenders out of the game for the first goal, creating space for Cisse, and then provided the assist for Pulisic. But above all, he needs to score. At the moment, Cisse is doing what Ramos should be doing.
