Roberto Donadoni puts pressure on Milan
During an interview given to the microphones of the "Gazzetta dello Sport", Roberto Donadoni, among the various topics discussed, analyzed the Rossoneri's painful narrow success against Hellas Verona in the last round of the championship. In addition, the former Meneghino midfielder also expressed himself bluntly ahead of the crucial Champions League playoff return match against Feyenoord, where the "Diavolo" è will be called upon to overturn the 1-0 win in the first leg.
"If we look at the result of the match against Verona, Milan is not experiencing its moment of maximum brilliance. It won a home with a narrow result against a formation struggling to save itself, with which the difference at the technical level è great. After the defeat in Rotterdam, forò, it was essential to make the three points also to give a signal" began the former coach of Bologna.
"The match with Feyenoord è of absolute delicacy, a crossroads for the season. I hope that Milan will be able to overcome this hurdle. The Rossoneri can do it, but it will be essential to take the field with a completely different spirit than in the first leg, otherwise in a few days we will find ourselves making the same arguments as at the beginning of the season" continued the former coach of the Italian national team.
"Gimenez è a center forward who gave me good sensations because heé è is technically gifted and has a nose for goal. He was an important shot and the two goals in two games in Serie A is a good calling card. Joao Felix è was also a key purchase, because heé has quality, è quick, quick in the head and good at creating numerical superiority. We need to find the right context to fit him in, but the first performances are encouraging" added the'former Parma coach.
"Leao’s qualities are unquestionable, but three or four games done well are not enough to turn a season around. It takes a full championship at a great level to be defined as a champion rather than just a good player. Rafa has to make that last step that will also allow Milan to find more continuity in terms of results" concluded Roberto Donadoni.
