Week 17: Verona - AC Milan (20-12-2024 - 20h45 CET)

[Arildonardo]

At least we got the 3 points. But another disappointing performance.

Great goal though.

[Sleeping Giant]

Boring game, scared to attack, pathetic forwards, but still 3 points is what needed. Liberali or Zeroli should in the playing 11 not Terracciano or Chuk

[Bennacer]

Horrendous advertising for Italian football . But the victory was extremely important. Fantastic goal, both the assist and the goal. But we totally lack cohesion offensively. At times you wonder if they all are having a grudge against each other. No chemistry what so ever. Chuk was soooo freaking bad. He must leave in January. He has absolutely no future in this club.

Positive notes:

- Jimenez. One of the best once again. That speed and agility will take him far, good grinta and diciplin too.
- Gabbia- Thiaw. Very stable couple. Few mistakes.
- Yet another clean sheet. 8/13 last matches have a clean sheet. Thats quite good.

My rating 1-10:

- Maignan. 6.
- Royal: 6.
- Gabbia: 6,5.
- Thiaw: 6,5.
- Jimenez: 6,5.
- Fofana: 6.
- Reijnders: 6,5.
- Terraciano: 5,5.
- Chukwueze: 4,5.
- Theo: 5,5.
- Abraham. 5.

I wouldn't mind Terracciano there. He did a decent job, and more importantly, he seemed to get on those Verona fvckers' nerve. Especially Suslov, even the commentators were amazed that he could escape a booking throughout the game. I wouldn't want to throw Liberali out there in this kind of nasty environment. 

Also, shout-out to Theo to keep his own cool in his time-wasting stunt and even got someone red carded.   

It was such a stupid performance, but it always feels great to beat those Verona fvckers on their turf, if you know Milan history well. We could have had two more Scudetti if not for them (1973, 1990).

Jimenez so impressive.
I didn't watch the game but he had a lot of moments in the highlights. What position was he playing?

[Beppe]

Ugly win but those are also 3pts.

In defense of Fonseca, it is hard to play good with all these injuries and such a badly build squad. Also good is our defense, we look quite solid. Gabbia and Thiaw doing a good job and those giant holes in midfield are mostly gone.

Terraciano in midfield was decent, I know most Milan fans dislike him but IMO he aint terrible and is still young and can improve. Him playing as a 3th midfielder I’d like to see more.

Unbelievable how many players are out atm, hope we can recover some for our next game.

Defensively, it's embarrassing that we sold Kalulu for dirt cheap and bought fodder like Pavlovic. I've already seen enough of him to not be convinced whatsoever. Guys reckless and while perhaps physically good he's mentally (positionally/IQ) lost. If we made a smarter investment than him, we could've been more than OK in the back.

Yet another pathetic victory to prolong agony... 3-4 loses in a row and getting rid of Fonseca would do less damage than few more months of this...

Agree. The whole season has been like this. Win 1, lose, draw, play terrible, pressure and "at risk".....win 1 again, repeat cycle.
