Some interesting news has emerged regarding how the starting line-up may look in the game against Spezia tomorrow night, a report claims.
According to Calciomercato.com, Aster Vranckx is a concrete candidate for a starting role in Saturday night’s match at San Siro. The Belgian midfielder – who joined the Rossoneri last summer from Wolfsburg on loan with option to buy – has so far amassed only 30 minutes in Serie A divided over three appearances.
At a point in the season where games are coming thick and fast and the condition of the squad must be managed well, Stefano Pioli is looking for new tactical solutions. He feels that the team have let in too many goals in Serie A which is the direct consequence of a fragile balance due to an attacking set-up with four players not particularly suited to the defensive phase.
Rade Krunic was fielded against Red Bull Salzburg and it can certainly be described as a positive performance, while Vranckx could play the same role against Spezia tomorrow because of his work on and off the ball.
For Vranckx it is a big opportunity to show what he can bring in what would be his first start as he aims to convince Milan to spend the amount required to make his loan from Wolfsburg a permanent deal.
Even Vranckx is about to leapfrog CDK now?
Idk why we’d need more players for the role of AM.. Diaz, CDK, Adli, Krunić, Pobega can all play there. Even Rebić if need be. Menawhile we only have 2 good DM’s in Bennacer and Tonali. Pobega is trying there but still has a long way to go, Krunić the same. Others cant play there if their life depended on it. Either groom Aster for DM or send him back to germany imao 😀
Don’t see the point in starting Diaz. He will go back to RM at the end of the season, so we are only ‚blooding‘ him for a CL rival. We need to use CDK and Vranckx to fill that role. No point in taking players on loan with option if you are not going to use them.
The kid looks pretty good so let’s see what he can do
