Il Milan Of Pegs he emerged from the storm following elimination from the Europa League and defeat in the derby by snatching a point with his teeth, and in an emergency, at Juventus. The 0-0 effectively seals second place A league: “We are going through a delicate moment and reacting like this against a team that wanted to get closer to us in the standings satisfies me – he commented Pegs at the end of the game -. We could have done better in the last step, but we sacrificed a lot to obtain an important result.”
With the Champions League acquired, the Milan in the last four days he can sail at cruising speed: “We will work on our pride and the desire to do well until the end to honor this shirt. We will have three matches at home and we must do well for ourselves, for the club and our fans” .
At Juventus, the Rossoneri showed solidity also thanks to a good performance by Thiaw despite suffering something on the right: “We had two results out of three to defend second place. Juventus on the left is very strong, we tried to change position a bit to move them. In the second half Juve put in a lot of attackers and crushed us , then a bit of tiredness came out, we sacrificed knowing that not losing was still a positive thing for us.”
There was little solidity during the season: “We waited longer there Juve, also for the absences we had. With our defenders I preferred to do more density, but judgments are conditioned by the result. I liked the spirit and the fact that we completed our game plan despite the difficulties.” Chukwueze was also given a few minutes in Turin: “I won’t give up an extra midfielder like Pulisic to play with four attacking players more at this time.”
Il Pioli’s future is in the balance and there is already talk of his successors on the bench: “I work with great concentration, the only thing that matters is doing well in all the matches. There is the serenity of doing well until the end. Personality? What we have prepared we have put into pitch, we could have been more dangerous but I had the answers I was looking for. Now let’s try to win the next games to score as many points as possible.”
What would change Pegs of the AC Milan season: “I certainly made some mistakes, we could have had a better season. We took a lot of points from Inter, but the others are all worse off than us. We were at a good level but without keeping up with the Nerazzurri. We changed a lot in the summer and it was the time to do it, but this is a group that has the potential to do well.”
