AC Milan’s pre-season will officially start on Monday and Max Allegri has delivered ‘Ten Commandments’ to the players to prepare them for what’s to come.
The 2024-25 season was a huge disappointment for Milan, finishing in eighth place, losing the Coppa Italia final and getting knocked out against Feyenoord in the Champions League. A complete turnaround is needed to succeed this upcoming season, as such.
Allegri will be at the helm of that turnaround as the Rossoneri have tasked him with leading the team. Today, along with some of the players, he arrived at Milanello for fitness tests but the official start of pre-season will be on Monday next week.
Allegri’s Ten Commandments
As reported by today’s edition of Gazzetta dello Sport (see photo below), Allegri hasn’t wasted any time, bringing the players up to speed in recent weeks. For him, there are ‘Ten Commandments’ that all players must follow in order to remain in the squad:
- Forget about last season and start from scratch
- Rediscover the Milan DNA; the desire to win
- The first thought must be the team
- Double training sessions from the first day
- Without mid-week games, there will be tough sessions during the week
- Late arrivals to training will be punished with squad exclusion (for next game)
- No cell phones between meetings, meals and the locker room
- Pay attention to your weight; breakfast and lunch at Milanello
- Tough team; fewer goals must be conceded
- On the pitch, the simple choice must be made
All points are valid, of course, and it will be very interesting to see how the players will respond. Especially those who perhaps had some attitude issues last season, even if most of them already have one foot out the door.
amen
LoL
Ttust me. U can’t success for second spell in Acmilan. You just lucky get scudetto for acmilan. The first time spell you destroy acmilan DNA, know u more destroy again.. stupiid Tare choose allegri . Tare dont know about about acmilan.
Kiddo, silence is golden for a reason.
You ok there?
Ttust you? Why? What are your merits? 🙂
If these were made by Allegri after coming again to Milan, and not during his previous coaching days, then it is highly possible that there was a serious issue with players’ discipline last season.
Exactly 👍🏻
If these were made by Allegri and not by a GdS journalist making up an article? Unlikely
“simple choice must be made” meaning a lot of back passes? What does that even mean?
the point said “ON THE PITCH, the simple choice must be made”. exactly what it says. u have an option of a lateral pass, or a forward dribble vs 2 defenders, pass the ball. what is so difficult to understand.
Well, professor, that depends on what Allegri defines as a “simple choice” given what his Juve tenure was like.
Did you watch any of his games? He was allergic to any progressive plays.
#10 is a bit subjective. I hope. It’s a foundation. “dribble vs 2 defenders” is what Leao does. ” so come on.
Simple choices at speed with precision can be effective most of the time.
And won 5 trophies with that…
#10 is a bit subjective. I hope.
Can’t wait for fans to start calling him Allergic again. Y’all gonna learn fast lol 🤣🤣🤣
