AC Milan will face Fiorentina this evening and Stefano Pioli has named his starting XI for the crucial clash. Compared to the draw against Lecce, he has made three changes and two of them are in attack.
After four games without a win in the league, collecting just two points, Milan desperately need all three points tonight. It will not be an easy task against Fiorentina, though, and especially not considering the many absences.
Olivier Giroud, Rafael Leao and Noah Okafor are all unavailable, meaning Luka Jovic will be the starting striker tonight. Furthermore, the 15-year-old Francesco Camarda will be the only striker on the bench, which says a lot about the situation.
Compared to the Lecce clash, Pioli has made three changes with Yunus Musah, Christian Pulisic and Jovic replacing Rade Krunic, Leao and Giroud.
Official Milan XI (4-2-3-1): Maignan; Calabria, Thiaw, Tomori, Hernandez; Musah, Reijnders, Pobega; Chukwueze, Jovic, Pulisic.
Bench: Mirante, Nava, Florenzi, Simic, Bartesaghi, Adli, Krunic, Loftus-Cheek, Romero, Camarda, Chaka Traore.
Official Fiorentina XI (4-2-3-1): Terracciano; Parisi, Quarta, Milenkovic, Biraghi; Arthur, Duncan; Gonzalez, Bonaventura, Sottil; Beltran.
Bench: Martinelli, Christensen, Maxime Lopez, Ikone, Nzola, Infantino, Mina, Comuzzo, Mandragora, Pierozzi, Barak, Amatucci, Brekalo, Kouame.

😂😂😂😂
Bring back Krunic lol 😂
🤣🤣🤣
4231?
That’s a 433. I wonder who’s playing DM 🤔 I’m guessing Musah
Wow are we actually playing a 4231 with Reinjders and Pobega as the double pivots??? Incredible choices. Musah doesn’t even look like he understands where he needs to be on the field 🤦♂️
not much to choose considering the absentee and the schedule.
Yawn.
What a poor quality opening – at the moment Chuck will be lucky to survive the winter mercado…
Pobega our best player
Pobega is actually playing ball. Probably the best so far (see folks you can be a hater but also keep it a 100)
Chukwueze, Jovic and Musah though…
Chuk not bad, Jovic not bad (had a couple of nice passes but out tactics don’t suit him). Musah I have no clue where he’s supposed to be. Is he the CAM?
The setup is horrendous.
What a horrible half. What have we been doing for two weeks? No game plan
Our play is so disjointed. I don’t even know exactly what we’re playing
Calabria can’t pass to save his life…
We may have a one goal lead but this is desperate stuff. 2 very poor teams, not capable of keeping possession or putting together a neat attack.
Its like watching the 2nd division.
Chucky again looks so bad, we really got robbed there.
Pulisic at least has quality and tries hard.
All in all complete sh!t show
LMAO what luck 🤣🤣🤣 wow
Yay I guess hahaha
I know we’re playing a back 4. After that Its anyone’s guess. I assume Fiorentina is as confused as I am 😅
I can’t even tell if we are playing a 433 or a 4231, and what is Musah doing? I hope to see RLC and Camarda in the second half.
Why can’t we simply park the bus and counter. Why are we stretching the game?
Is Theo drunk or stoned? He looks really disconnected, mentally
Do we have a CF? (Hoping that makes him do something..)
We are looking so shaky and very poor. Fiorentina have every chance of getting a result
Get Jovic off – All the build up and no Camarda?
As u wish
History has been made
I only watched 2nd half of the game, but from what I saw, I’ve made up my mind not to watch another Milan game with Pioli on the bench… The Milan team were playing like underdogs to a team that don’t earn half of their salary.
I tried to count, we could not make more than 3 complete passes. And Jovic’s attempt… Enough!
