GdS: Pioli comments after the derby generate perplexity among management

There was some perplexity among the AC Milan leadership after Stefano Pioli’s comments following the 5-1 derby defeat against Inter, a report claims.

This morning’s edition of La Gazzetta dello Sport (via Radio Rossonera) reports that there was a ‘heated discussion’ in the dressing room after the game on Saturday and yesterday Geoffrey Moncada showed up at the trianing session at Milanello.

The feelings that emanate were disappointment given how much the derby means to the fans and the 5-1 scoreline is not something to be taken lightly, but also the desire to recover immediately.

The result did not put Pioli’s future at risk no matter how damaging it was and how ‘tragic’ the performance was, and instead the project continues with him at the centre of it.

However, a bit of uncertainty remains within the club after his post-match statements and how defensive he was. There was some ‘perplexity’ about his choice of words, but the Newcastle game provides a chance for a fresh start.

  1. We need to sack Pioli and put Bonera in his place to ensure the transition until the next mercato. Bonera’s style of play is highly technical and better.

  2. There is a lot of public support by management for Pioli, but if come the winter break we’re languishing in 4th or 5th place, 15 points behind first, they will sack him, as they should. Given the lack of options mid-season, I’d give the reigns to Pippo Inzaghi (who is free and plays a 4-3-3 by the way) until the end of the season. If he does well, they can extend, if not they can explore the market.

    1. Galtier would be an ideal candidate in my opinion. PSG tinted his reputation but I still think he’ll be good given his work with Lille.

  3. Still centre of the project, he’s says….!
    Pioli needs to start producing fresh effect tactics which wipe the floor of credible opposition. Untill then, it will be a case of defending the indefensible until he goes.

  4. If they want to sack him , Gailters are best option for caretaker , the second choice are sheva with tassotti. Both choice are cheap option . The expensive choice are conte,hansi flick,zidane,nagelssmann

    1. Di Zerbi would be interesting to see. I love his style of play. And is good with youngsters hopefully going to to Italy would attract him.
