AC Milan came away with the win against Hellas Verona and thus bounced back after a tough week. Several players did well and as per a newspaper, Marco Sportiello was the best for the Rossoneri.
It was a scrappy affair at San Siro, with both teams battling constantly, and this made things difficult for the players. Having said that, a few of them certainly did better than others, such as the goalscorer Rafael Leao.
As per today’s edition of Gazzetta Dello Sport (see photo below), the best was not the winger but rather Marco Sportiello. He made a great reflex save in the first half and was named the MOTM with a 6.5/10, the same rating as Simon Kjaer, Fikayo Tomori, Alessandro Florenzi and Leao.
Malick Thiaw, Yunus Musah, Olivier Giroud, Luka Jovic, Tommaso Pobega, Noah Okafor, Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Davide Bartesaghi all passed the test with a 6/10. The likes of Rade Krunic, Tijjani Reijnders and Christian Pulisic did not do as well, though, at 5.5.
The worst was the Dutchman, as he struggled to impose himself against Verona’s Michael Folorunsho and got lost between the lines.
Reijnders should play instead of Krunic, good opportunity to test it. He isn’t really effective in this position, a lot of running and nothing concrete. Maybe he would be more useful building from behind…
How is Musah a 6 & Kjaer 6.5. Musah put MOTM performance yesterday, was all over the place; while Kjaer is on his decline & it is clearly visible.
Just put adli in the middle man
players play good. all men deserve 6, leao 6.5 for the goal.
Pioli deserve 4.5. But i get it he is trying to experiment new ideas, even though its not working good this game. Creative players got the ball too low on the field, thus harder to create anything. I think this is where chukweze will perform better than pulisic
Time for new formation Pioli.
Among all the news signings, no one was able to bring the leap in quality
Pulisic 5.5 you’re kidding me.
