AC Milan suffered a big loss in their final friendly class of the winter as PSV Eindhoven found the back of the net three times. Down below are the player rating of the Rossoneri.
Starting XI
Mirante (4.5): He couldn’t really do anything about the foals but he had a couple of shaky moments, including what almost ended up being a crazy own-goal as he punched the ball towards his own net.
Calabria (5): Very average from the captain who certainly can do better in the attacking phase. He had some good interventions at the back, to be fair.
Kalulu (5): It’s hard to blame him really given that the errors started elsewhere but it’s also clear Milan don’t look completely secure at the back.
Tomori (5): Same as Kalulu, he did do well on many occasions but there’s just this sense of insecurity and that’s exactly what Milan don’t need.
Dest (3): At fault for all three goals, believe it or not, as Madueke was able to toy with Milan on the right flank. Just really bad.
Bennacer (5): He tried and tried but couldn’t really find a way through. Also lost his footing quite a lot.
Tonali (4): Did we see anything of him really? Very little, at least, and he needs to be more of a defensive presence for Milan for them to improve in that regard.
Saelemaekers (4.5): Some good moves here and there but ultimately he wasn’t put in any positions to make a difference.
De Ketelaere (3.5): Not good enough from him, failing to impose himself in the No.10 role and thus making it very tough for Milan.
Adli (3.5): Just like CDK, he just wasn’t present enough physically and PSV had such an advantage as a result.
Rebic (4): He tries to make the difficult pass always, without fail, and that hurts his play. He’s not a No.10, and he shouldn’t try to act like one.
Substitutes
Lazetic (4): He ran a lot but ultimately had a minimal effect on the game
Leao (6): Without a doubt the best even though his moves didn’t lead to a goal in the end.
Tatarusanu, Kjaer, Gabbia, Thiaw, Ballo-Toure, Vranckx, Bakayoko, Pobega (N/A): They didn’t show enough to get a rating.
