It was certainly an evening to forget for Milan and Massimiliano Allegri. We haven’t included his ratings below, but the manager got a 4.5 from Corriere dello Sport and a 4 from Gazzetta dello Sport, which also tells you a lot about the tactics.
The best player across both newspapers was Maignan, who got a 6 from Gazzetta dello Sport and a 5.5 from Corriere dello Sport. Christian Pulisic is also a contender as he got a 6 from the former newspaper, which is what we gave him too.
The worst, meanwhile, was Rafael Leao with 4 and 4.5. Koni De Winter got the same scores so he could be included in the conversation, but most would still probably say that the No.10 was the worst. A summer sale has never felt so realistic indeed.
Other than that, there isn’t too much to note from the ratings. It’s pretty much what you would expect after such a heavy defeat at home.

6: Maignan, Pulisic.
