Milan breaks the derby drought, says journalist Michele Criscitiello, and they do it in the best way possible, and during the most important period. The club now needs to make peace with itself.
"Do you believe in this team? Yes. Then move forward with your own decisions without listening to the fans and the press. Do you believe in this coach? Yes. Then don’t change your strategy every week, and don’t listen to other coaches. Fonseca knew that tomorrow he would need to call an Uber to go to Linate [airport]. He showed great personality by turning around his story in Italy."
"This time, he also needs to compliment his players, who didn’t abandon him in his time of need but supported him. Winning the derby doesn’t solve all the problems. Often, seasons need a spark, and this could be the right one for the Rossoneri environment, which in recent times had fallen too often into depression."
Trust in Fonseca - Milan must build on the derby victory.
"Now Milan must build on the derby and avoid creating more ambiguity, more off the field than on the field. You’ll see that this week the trial against Inzaghi will start again. From genius and demon to incompetent, as they called him two years ago in Inter circles. Long live football. What a beauty. Zero consistency and opinions that change based on a win", explains Michele Criscitiello.
