Tuttosport: Milan player ratings from Empoli win – Kessie and Romagnoli lead the way

By Oliver Fisher -

AC Milan’s players drew collective praise from Tuttosport for their performance during last night’s win at Empoli to close out the year.

Franck Kessie’s first half double had Milan 2-1 up at the break and then a free-kick from Alessandro Florenzi opened up a two-goal lead while Theo Hernandez made it 4-1 before a late consolation from Pinamonti.

Tuttosport (via MilanNews) reports how Kessie was the best player on the field for Milan as he got a 7.5 and ‘confirmed his quality’. The performance of Alessio Romagnoli was also worthy of a 7 as he looked very solid at the back.

Alessandro Florenzi, Sandro Tonali and Ismael Bennacer all looked in better shape and got a 6.5 for their efforts, while other members of the starting XI such as Theo Hernandez, Alexis Saelemaekers and Olivier Giroud got a 6.

The disappointments came from Junior Messias on the right who got a 5.5, while Fikayo Tomori and Tiemoue Bakayoko got a 5.

    1. lol , must be on a scale of 0-7, review taken with a grain of salt as Bennacer gets a 6.5. They all played well feeding the ball into the box sooner and more centered not from shallow angles deep. Having Sally on the left got rid of the constipation that Krunic provides when the ball is advanced to him. Theo, “il Gazzella” return welcomed as he pushed the ball evry opportunity, Pioli let the boys play “their” game

      1. There is nothing to celebrate we should beat mid-table & lower table team normally like Inter does. I saw the highlights & all the goals were mistake & Empoli miss 2 or 3 good chances. It isn’t like we dominated the otrer team. Florenzi for Kalulu or Krunic for Maldini sad the way Pioli think by creating no future.

  1. If we beat mid-table teams with the youngest like Gabbia, Maldini, Kalulu, B-Torre we should be happy, because we are winning, creating 2 teams, creating team value & after 3 or 4 years if someone isn’t happy or playing up to his potential let them go for a profit & sign or move up 2 or 3 each year.
