La Gazzetta dello Sport newspaper explain in this morning's print edition that AC Milan's alarm was surely ticked last night for Stefano Pioli: the defence suffered a lot as they conceded 3 goals against PSV.
It was a vulnerable and blunt Milan team. Even in the attacking department, Ante Rebic missed his opportunity to thrive there..
Pioli has a lot to fix in view of the match against Salernitana starting with the shaky goalkeeper performance of Antonio Mirante. The former AS Roma man did not take his chance to earn a starting spot in the lineup until Mike Maignan returns from injury.
Ismael Bennacer and Sandro Tonali also 'disappeared' while Yacine Adli did not show what the coach was hoping for. Alexis Saelemaekers was decent while the AC Milan star Rafael Leao displayed good ideas and attempts in the attacking phase. There is a lot to work on overall as we wait for the return of Olivier Giroud and Theo Hernandez.
