As it turns out Milan will finish this somewhat anticlimactic season against a last placed team that is Salernitana. With second place secured earlier last week’s 3-1 loss to Torino only served to highlight the defensive woes that have plagued Pioli’s Milan. With the knowledge that the coach’s day are numbered it seemed that any possible fixes were abandoned a Torino ran away relatively easy winners.

The new coach, rumored to be ex-Roma boss Paulo Fonseca, will have to stabilize the shape of the team. The Portuguese coach’s name has been one of many arguably underwhelming names linked and his arrival will not set a new excitement mark, but more on summer plans later as they happen.

Pioli is not the only one to be receiving a farewell at the San Siro. Giroud confirmed his departure to MLS’ LAFC earlier and Kjaer will also leave Milan. All three deserve a fond goodbye with one delivering a much hoped for Scudetto, the other for breaking the number 9 curse and finally the Danish veteran for providing leadership at the back.

As for this game Maignan’s almost continuous injury woes has put his Milan future in some question. Will Gerry Cardinale and management contemplate one big sale in the French goalkeeper or perhaps Theo. Time will tell. Sportiello will start in goal in any case. Kjaer might get a farewell start but Gabbia and Tomori are the likeliest defenders to start alongside Calabria and Theo. The middle three is set to be Bennacer, Adli and Reijnders but Pioli could decide to give Musah another start. Upfront Leao will regain his starting spot that had been lost for unknown reasons. Giroud should get the farewell start and Pulisic can consider his Milan debut season a big success with another start at right wing.

The disappointing Salernitana are led once again by Stefano Colantuono. He is the the team’s third coach of the season after Paulo Sousa and Pippo Inzaghi failed to get the team going.

A changed lineup with Hernandez and Leao on the bench managed to rout Cagliari 5-1 and the subsequent Juventus tie with Salernitana ensured second place for this 2023-2024 Serie A season. Champions League places, now that Serie A has five spots, was confirmed earlier and now Milan know their place in the newly expanded to four team Super Coppa. In other words there is nothing to play for this week and the next week in the final game of the season. Some hopes for primavera or youth team members like Kevin Zeroli or the likes of Francesco Camarda being given a chance will likely not really materialize except for few substitute minutes. The latter is in apparent contract dispute with the team and his Milan future is not set in stone.

Maignan is expected to stay on the bench and there are whispers of a sale as well. Whether the team needs or will do a Tonali type sale in the summer remains to be seen and if so Maignan could be the man. Sportiello will start in goal. Gabbia has accumulated yellow and it is therefore a Tomori, Thiaw center back pairing with Kalulu and Hernandez the possible full backs. A 4-3-3 is expected with three of Musah, Bennacer, Reijnders and Adli. Leao may remain on the bench, a questionable move perhaps. Okafor is set to start in Portuguese’s place with Giroud and Pulisic up front. Chukwueze will miss the final two games of the season with the team suffering yet another muscular injury absence.

The focus is on finding a Pioli replacement with many underwhelming names linked. The team is set to make an early off season decision on the coach’s replacement.

Torino’s Ivan Juric is set to leave the team having been in charge since 2021. Torino sit exactly in the middle of the table with a shot at a Conference League qualification spot.

Week 35’s 3-3 tie versus Genoa extended Milan’s winless streak to six matches. It cemented the need for a new coach. Leading 3-2 Pioli opted to bring on Thiaw in Chukwueze’s place, the fact that the German’s own goal tied the score minutes later highlighted the issue. This type of sub also further confirmed the necessity for new thinking. If a new coach, Porto’s Sergio Conceicao being the latest ‘hot’ candidate, brings that remains to be seen. If not his tactics the Portuguese coach’s temperament is at least questionable.

It is are somewhat surprising, if reports are to be true, that Pioli will use a much changed starting 11. Opting for a possible 4-3-3 without Calabria, Theo, Tomori and Leao is even more so. Kalulu, Thiaw, Gabbia and Florenzi in front of Sportiello is the predicted back line. Musah, Reijnders and Bennacer forming a middle three is at least good to try and against a 15th placed team perhaps might yield a positive outcome. Sports papers go on to report a possible front three of Chukwueze, Giroud and Pulisic. The latter American has not often played the left wing during his Milan career. Loftus-Cheek, Maignan and Kjaer remain on the injured list but may be all ready for week 37.

Cagliari have not won in four games and sit only three points above the relegation spot occupied by Udinese.

Week 34’s match against Juventus was not a great advertisement for Italian nor did Milan shine in any shape for form. The 0-0 draw was widely noted as a boring uneventful match. The 2023-2024 season is ending in a sort of anticlimactic way with only second pace to play for. Juventus can catch Milan and take over second spot but it won’t matter all that much. Next season’s new Champions League format has already guaranteed the Serie A five spots, up from four, and even if that was in question the danger would be lower.

The rest of the season’s biggest drama is likely to be the search for Piuoli’s successor. So far mostly unimpressive names have mentioned but it is too early to be sure if the choice will be high profile or not. A lot will depend on Gerry Cardinale’s ambition and willingness.

In the warm up for the aforementioned Juveutus match Maignan injured himself and Sportiello deputized well. The Italian will start again versus Genoa. Calabria will serve the second of his two match ban but since Hernandez is back from suspension Pioli won’t have to use Musah at the back. Florenzi and Hernandez will play alongside Tomori and Gabbia. It looks like bennacer and Reijnders will be used the rest of the way with Adi on the bench. Loftus- CHeek is not 100% and this will move Pulisic to the attacking midfield role and Chukwueze to the wing. Leao will start on the left with the departing Giroud playing up front in one of his final Milan games.

Genoa feature the familiar name of Messias on their squad but the Brazilian is out injured. Il Grifone are coached by Gilardino of course and despite his team being only 12th in the standings he is gaining fans for his coaching.
