The period of ups and downs continues at Milan. After yesterday’s daring draw against Lecce, which brought the Rossoneri to a potential -8 from Inter in case of victory this evening in the match against Frosinone, the club confirmed its trust in the coach both due to a concrete lack of alternatives ( the names that were circulating yesterday, from Shevchenko to Donadoni, are not convincing) and because the club is convinced that the coach can still achieve the results established at the beginning of the season. If the Scudetto now seems relegated to a duel between Inter and Juve, the Devil still seems perfectly in the running to reach the Champions League goal. At the end of this day and regardless of injuries, Milan will remain third alone. However, there is a worrying issue: that linked to the too many injuries that are penalizing the Rossoneri club despite a competitive squad set up by the club in the summer.
Milan, there are 23 muscle stops this season: a trend that needs to be reversed
Pioli’s Milan lost the derby badly
The muscle injuries that occurred to Leao and Calabria against Lecce, for the Portuguese an injury to the biceps femoris of the flexor, for the captain only an edema without injuries, have put the patience of the Rossoneri club to the test. Furlani, yesterday traveling for work and therefore not present at Via del Mare, will have a face to face meeting with Pioli himself to try to understand the reasons and causes of something that now seems to have become atavistic.
In fact, having to systematically give up 2-3 players for each match also saps the strength and spirit of the available players. It would be, in our opinion, time to change the tactical score, practicing less expensive and perhaps more careful football as the match against PSG taught.
Pioli still has time to right the ship but corrective measures are needed and quickly. Without a decisive change between the pitch and the infirmary, Maldini might not be there plus the only one summoned by Cardinale to breakfast. The wind of change blown by Cardinale is blowing strongly in Milanello. To the Emilian technician the duty to reject it.
