This weekend, AC Milan saw another disappointing result play out in front of them, seemingly with nothing to stop it from happening.

Instead, they rolled over in a new formation. Massimiliano Allegri, whose teams are renowned for being good defensively, conceded three goals without even offering any attacking threat. It says a lot, really.
As a result, their hopes of Champions League football next season took a significant hit and whilst they are not out of the running, they could quickly slip.
Dr. Allegri needed
This morning, Corriere dello Sport (via MilanPress) stated that Allegri must focus first on the psychology of his team this week at Milanello. Mentally, the team look drained and the collapse is worrying.
So, it is a must to stop the issue now to ensure that the mental issues do not worsen. Then and only then can he return to the pitch and work on the football.
Ultimately, his team look out of it in both senses and the risk of no Champions League qualification is only becoming more prominent.
