AC Milan managed to clinch all three points against Como last night and as highlighted in the papers this morning, Sergio Conceicao will use the international break to prepare for what could be a big comeback.
The Rossoneri have Christian Pulisic and Tijjani Reijnders to thank for the win, turning a 0-1 deficit into a 2-1 win underneath the San Siro floodlights. As stated in today’s edition of Corriere dello Sport (via MilanNews), it was yet another comeback for the Rossoneri which could see them get properly involved in the European race.
Conceicao wanted two wins ahead of the international break and that’s exactly what he got. Now, as the newspaper continues, the manager will use said break to study and prepare for a climb up the standings. Depending on Juve and Bologna’s results today, Milan could even believe in a top-four finish.
Above all, however, the manager was pleased with the character that his players showed during yesterday’s game. Coming back from behind takes a certain willingness and while the Rossoneri have been heavily questioned this season, it seems there is some light at the end of the tunnel.
Napoli are up after the break and it will be a very difficult game, of course, especially since it’s away from home. Then, the Rossoneri will be up against Inter in the first leg of the Coppa Italia semi-final and Fiorentina in the league.
Those 3 loses in a row are difficult to forget
The question that should be worked on in also: why are you 0-1 zero down against Como? Why are you 0-2 zero down against Lecce
This season Ac Milan team is with lowest possible quality. Players (well some of them have stronger performance and are better, but team play is on lowest point.
For Milan is necessary to start winning now, no matter of position on table. Because they need continuation of good results for next season.
Milan can afford loss of 80 million in next season thanks to players sales, there are many players whose destiny needs to be resolved, but in next season good result in Serie A is necessary.
Red Bird did huge step back after Elliots good results .
Conceicao’s game plan: Start with Musah, let the opponent take the lead and think they’re going to win. As soon as the opponent takes off their attacking threat(s), he benches Musah and Milan will start playing. Works every time.
I heard the same thing two weeks ago. He planned to make a comeback because he got a full week training season with the players. But nothing change.
Funny how the two games that he had a full week to train the players with, we won.
Even an idiot would understand that before the Lazio match was played, the players were playing on fumes.
