Cooling break, Ibrahimovic’s absence, rest days granted by Fonseca, the poor performance of the French against Italy, and the ongoing criticism of Leao (even in his National Team appearances).
As Corriere dello Sport rightly points out, it’s been an interesting and tough week for Milan. The newspaper raises the question: are there doubts about the quality of the squad and the management?
Although the club has explained the reason for the Swede’s trip (commercial, not a vacation as some thought), Rossoneri fans are no longer patient with RedBird’s sports collaborator. It is said that Zlatan should be a daily presence at Milanello, just as Paolo Maldini used to be. Even Tonali’s performance against France, after being sold to Newcastle by the new management, adds to the general unease. In short, many problems seem to have appeared out of nowhere because every drop is making the cup overflow, and no one seems to be giving any signs.
Speaking of signs, fans didn’t take well to the decision to grant 4 days of rest to a team without victories in the league.
Venezia is not just a great opportunity, but the last chance to rekindle the bond with San Siro: tough challenges are coming where every individual will be scrutinized. The fans are demanding, but it was Milan themselves who declared their desire to win the Scudetto this summer.
