Paulo Fonseca has been at the centre of attention in the last few days, following the 1-3 defeat against Liverpool, and the big litmus test is scheduled for tonight as AC Milan will take on Inter. However, there is currently no favourite to replace him.
The defeat earlier this week was the final straw for many, but sacking the manager ahead of the derby would have been a very poor decision. In any case, Fonseca is on his last life and will need to show something tonight, and even just a win might not be enough.
Speaking to Sky Italia after Fonseca’s press conference last night, as cited by MilanNews, Gianluca Di Marzio shared the latest on the situation. He highlighted the fact that Milan don’t have a favourite in mind to replace the manager, simply having a list to be ready.
“Fonseca seemed worried at the end of the match against Liverpool. Today I saw him charged up. But in the event of a heavy defeat, he could be sacked. There are no names ahead of the others: there is a list because a big club like Milan must be ready for all scenarios. Among the various hypotheses, there are Sarri, Tuchel, Tudor and in the background also Allegri,” he stated.
It remains to be seen what will happen tonight, but the Milan management will certainly be keeping their eyes open for improvements. Equally, not just Fonseca but also the players must show that they really want to win tonight.
Tuchel would probably be best. He managed top teams, top stars, won titles, doesn’t play defensively like Allegri.
Agree I wish tuchel will be the next Milan coach
For someone named Igor not to vouch for your namesake means you have Milan at heart.😃
But can we pay his salary?, well in fact we can, but we already know our management
Tuchel seems a solid choice but how about Fabio Conceicao
Sergio man😂
Tuchel is the best among them all
There is way we are paying Tuchel’s salary.
I’d love to see it. But it’s not happening
No favorite to replace Fonseca YET???
Let’s see. We have:
disorganized tactical set up
Absent sporting director
No clear project
Mis-mash of players thrown together in wrong positions
Terrible start to season
Humiliated in first UCL game
Mediocre Transfer market and poor management decisions on players like Kalulu
Star players seem despondent
Chaotic defensive scheme leaking goals left and right
AND – we don’t know who we will replace Fonseca with YET???
Take your time “BOSS” – no need to rush apparently 🤮🤮🤮🤮
Sarri has been flirting with Milan for a long time now. Time to bring Sarriball to the San Siro. Honestly he is our best bet to take this team forward
They have a concept of a replacement.
