CorSera: ‘The hour of truth’ – Milan already struggling with difficult month ahead

AC Milan have started the season awfully, and if they are not careful things could continue to worsen before they get better, especially when taking a look at the upcoming month.

For a club with Milan’s ambitions, starting a season with a draw and a loss is woeful. Context can make things better and worse, and unfortunately for Paulo Fonseca, in this situation, it is worsened.

Had the Rossoneri dropped points against two top-four contenders, perhaps, there could have been more positivity. However, drawing against a mid-table side and losing to a side who have been absent from Serie A for four years is a recipe for disaster.

To further this, if these are the results against these sides, what can be expected this weekend against Lazio? Looking beyond this, you then have the Champions League fixture, and the game against Inter next month.

As Milan News write, it is the first ‘serious’ month of the season, and whilst there are games against Venezia and Lecce to start and end the month, there are two potentially season-defining games facing the side.

A reaction is expected and with ‘red September’ awaiting the players, if it is not met, serious consequences could be facing them.
