AC Milan Rebuilding Project
by Juan Carlos Martínez – acmilanrebuilding@gmail.com
Below is a comprehensive piece on the current state of AC Milan. Juan Carlos presents one possible (conservative) scenario on how to move forward with a new strategy that will eventually take Milan back to the top and modernize the team’s football operations. In it he sets a clear scope on how to rejuvenate and rebuild the squad and achieve a self sufficient model.

Well undoubtedly players that need to be sold is pretty close to what should really happen but the acquisitions are just horrible. The only players that i would keep other than the ones the author of this article named are MDS, Abate, and Bonaventura. Also would sell Poli, the guy hasn’t shown anything why he’s worthy of wearing AC Milan shirt. We’ll be using 4-3-3, so we’ll need 2 CBs Paletta and Zapata are just horrible Musacchio and some high caliber defender like Marquinhos, Laporte or Subotic would solidify our defense for good. GK and Full-Back positions are already filled with good players, though i’m kinda unhappy that we recently loaned Calabria and bought Vangioni. We need 2-3 high class midfielders some one like Witsel for solidity, young and energetic new player like Zielinski, and some one technical and creative like Pastore, Kovacic, or Andre Gomes. In striker position we have Lapadula and Bacca but if the later is sold should be replaced minimum wiht some one like Lukaku. On both wings we have Bona, Niang, and Suso so we’ll need at least one more winger, maybe Ljajic??? i don’t know. But we have the funds now and a normal coach so let’s start winning again Milan!!! Forza Milan!!!
Thanks for the comment. I hope there is a plan, right acquisitions with a thought towards now and the future both. You are right about the likes of Poli, Zapata not having a place, with the right transfers they should be relegated to the bench and eventually leave. I would definitely work on creativity and midfield first, give Suso more games to see how he does, Bona of course, someone with more stamina in Montolivo’s spot. Very good names in the rumours and those you mentioned.
