Milan in trouble, Sacchi lashes out at a footballer
At the Gazzetta dello Sport Arrigo Sacchi spoke about the moment of difficulty Milan is going through: "When it doesn’t play collectively, that is, when it doesn’t è a team, Milan loses. Lately, every now and then, this è happened. I think of the defeats against Juve and Psg, but also the previous one against Inter. Something has to be corrected".
The Rossoneri legend lashed out especially at Davide Calabria for the words he uttered after the loss to PSG: "It was a bad exit because it conveys an idea of confusion. Moreover, it seems to me that those words, spoken hot after the game, show little respect for the coach. Forò and this should be emphasized, they make it clear that there is something going on underneath, that it is not all sunshine and roses. And therefore, action must be taken as soon as possible to prevent the matter from getting complicated".
"Pioli must take charge of the situation and organize the team according to clear principles. The group must be united, or else it ends up going overboard. United technically, tactically and in spirit. And then the coach must be convinced of his ideas and convey this conviction to his boys. Show them where they went wrong, so they won't go wrong again. And if there's someone who is stirring up trouble, keep him out. If one does not do the required things, there'è always bench".
In closing, an appeal to the Rossoneri defense: "They go their own way. Against Juve, on the occasion of Thiaw's sending off, no one was giving cover. The challenge was Thiaw against Kean. But then you are not playing zone, you are playing one-on-one…. Since Franco Baresi è is still in the company, let them ask him how it should be done in such situations. There is no coordination between defenders, no doubling of marking, you have to draw good diagonals that are effective. And the distances, which are fundamental, are not respected. Pioli needs to work a lot on this area starting with a basic principle: defenders, first of all, be defenders and be in correct positions".
