Sky: One selection doubt remains for Pioli – he could change formation

By Oliver Fisher -

AC Milan head coach Stefano Pioli has just one dilemma that he must resolve in view of tonight’s game against Hellas Verona, a report claims.

According to reports from Sky (via MilanNews), the only doubt for Milan is whether to field Yacine Adli or Rade Krunic in the starting line-up. Should the Frenchman prevail, Pioli could decide to deploy him in the 4-3-3 as a box-to-box midfielder, thus not opting for the 4-2-3-1.

In terms of the rest of the team, Ciprian Tatarusanu should get the nod to start in goal – with Mike Maignan set to return against Monza – while Matteo Gabbia and Fikayo Tomori will be the centre-backs with Pierre Kalulu and Theo Hernandez the full-backs.

The attack would be completed with Brahim Diaz playing on the right side, with Rafael Leao on the other wing and Olivier Giroud getting yet another start as the centre-forward as he continues to work overtime.

  1. Pioli has already said he doesn’t see Adli in a 4-3-3. Why would he change formation to play him there?
    Just play Adli as a no 10, it’s now or never.
