The next two matches are vital for AC Milan to get their season back on track domestically and in Europe, but they are also crucial for Stefano Pioli and his future two.
Milan are without a win in four league games, including home defeats to Juventus and Udinese (both 0-1) and 2-2 draws against Napoli and Lecce from a two-goal advantage.
The great victory against PSG showed that the team can still perform at a high level but the collapse that followed in Lecce was a demonstration that something is lacking, which must be put right against Fiorentina.
Today’s edition of Il Giornale (via PianetaMilan) ramps up the pressure a bit. They report that if things go badly against Fiorentina tomorrow night and above all in the Champions League match against Borussia Dortmun , decisive for qualification for the round of 16, Pioli could be seriously at risk.
This week could be decisive for Pioli too, therefore, even if the management and ownership continue to back him and the club do not intend to do anything drastic after a few negative results. However, money is on the line and a season cannot fall apart in November.
