Gameday has arrived for AC Milan, taking on Lecce at San Siro this afternoon. With six wins in the bag, the Rossoneri will be looking to extend their winning run. According to a report, they will try to do so with a very attacking-minded starting XI.
Milan have indeed been in tremendous form lately and with the season entering its final stages, the goal is to continue down this path. Today’s game is a very important one in view of the derby, with the Rossoneri hoping to avoid Scudetto celebrations in that clash.
As reported by Gazzetta dello Sport (see photo below), Stefano Pioli has decided to make a few changes to the starting XI. With Malick Thiaw suffering from inflammation, Ismael Bennacer not at 100% and Ruben Loftus-Cheek suspended, this was indeed expected.
However, few expected Pioli to go all-out attack with his choices, fielding Christian Pulisic in the No.10 role and Yacine Adli together with Tijjani Reijnders. Samuel Chukwueze has been in great form lately and will keep his spot on the right, hoping to combine well with Pulisic this evening.
Probable Milan XI (4-2-3-1): Maignan; Calabria, Gabbia, Tomori, Hernandez; Adli, Reijnders; Chukwueze, Pulisic, Leao; Giroud.
Probable Lecce XI (4-3-3): Falcone; Gendrey, Baschirotto, Pongracic, Gallo; Blin, Ramadani, Gonzalez; Banda, Krstovic, Dorgu.
If pulisic plays well on this role milan won’t buy another attacking midfielder.. they might go for another right winger thst will compliment chukwueze. For next season
Or they will just use Romero. That boy still have time to prove himself, especially if Chukwueze prove he can be consistent in the rest of the season.
I still think what we need is 1 star CF, 1 starting DM and 1 CD.
Some one Italians like Ricci and Buongiorno is preferable (for me)
Thats it! Zirkzee, Ricci and Buongiorno would ne Perfect and should cost less than 100mil. We have our yearly Budget from 50mil and playersales 40-50 mil. Lets renew Mike and Theo
This is looks great! love this!.
the ideal attacking formation in my opinion,
However we lack defensively but we can fix it in the summer.
Maybe on first try on this formation I would pic Bennacer over Adli.
Yes this line up is perfect so around 75 minutes then benercer will replace Pulisic as an attacking midfield then musah will replace adli
