Max Allegri was handed a tactical lesson by Stefano Pioli in last night’s game between AC Milan and Juventus at San Siro. Indeed, the experienced manager got to eat up his own words regarding the Rossoneri.
Allegri has been heavily criticised this season as Juventus really have struggled to perform on a high level. Yesterday’s game was another example of that as the Bianconeri didn’t look like a team, disinterested as soon as Milan scored the second goal.
Recently, as he was receiving criticism, Allegri blamed the injury situation and posed the following situation: “Try taking five starters away from Inter or Milan.” Yesterday, he got his answer as to what happens in that scenario: Milan continue to win.
As highlighted by MilanNews, Milan obviously had more than five players missing and that says a lot about their strength. Pioli’s choices with regard to the starting XI were spot on and the Rossoneri easily beat Juventus thanks to the tactical superiority.
Allegri got his answer, in other words, and now he must focus on himself and Juventus rather than the rivals.
Actually Juventus has very potential to be challenger. I think they will be so good if go with 3 CBs, 3-4-3 precisely, with Allegri’s tactic. Allegri team tends to put many men at back & they midfielders always eager to go counter attack & their forwards used to be flicks-on for passes. They can very dangerous with proper 3-4-3 game-plan, also because they has Moise Kean (yesterday poses many threads to ACM from LW) & Federico Chiesa, and Vlahovic is very competent to be the lone striker for the flick-on.
Not mention Alex Sandro & Cuadrado also will be very good as attacking fullbacks. And Rabiot-McKennie should be very good pivots too.
You sure you’re not a Juve fan? 😂
Analysing other team didn’t mean we support them.
no he actually watches football games unlike you who watches highlights.
lol stop making fun of him, its kinda undeniable they are going through bad injuries. Imagine Milan losing Leao for so long.
Also they are rebuilding we are in the 3rd phase of our project, we still need to fill the gaps next summer for sure.
Allegri’s tactics still suck. He definitely has more than 1 game changer unlike we do. You can’t compare him to Us.
He doesn’t have more than 1 goal per match
“Imagine Milan losing Leao for so long.”
That would mean Pioli would have to rely on real tactics instead of hoping for the left side to shine and other players would be given more playing time. For example Rebic would benefit from that. So would Origi. The team would play more as a team and not hope/rely on Leao showing some magic 1-3 times per match.
Naaah, not the end of the world.
Bad injuries? We have at least 4 starters injured. We’re more injured than Juve for sure
Milan lucky to win.
Lucky? did you even watch the match? what a dumb comment really, Jube was lucky that they only conceded 2 goals!!!.
We are lucky with the goals we scored.
We are unlucky with the missed chances that we should have scored.
We were lucky it was Juventus. Other teams would create more problems for us considering our injury struggles. Zebras are just an unmotivated crowd under Allegri’s cowardly management.
I wish we had someone like Cuadrado in our right wing. He was among the few who wanted to fight.
… says the Juventino. LOL.
Luck is how titles are won, right?
