Milan, Alessandro Costacurta does not turn around
During an interview given to the microphones of "Corriere della Sera", former Azzurri defender Alessandro "Billy" Costacurta bluntly analyzed Milan’s season. In addition, the "Sky Sport" pundit commented on the Rossoneri's chances of getting back into the fight for the Scudetto and on the path to the Europa League.
"I think Milan are cut off from the Scudetto race, but they have a chance to make their season positive by winning an important trophy like the Europa League. The next cup rival è Rennes, an excellent team that comes from seven consecutive victories between Ligue1 and the French Cup" began the "Sky" pundit.
"Milan has not disappointed me becauseé meanwhile, it has acquired the habit of staying at a high level, having won a Scudetto and reached a Champions League semifinal. It has a stadium that is always full and should it reach the finals I challenge anyone not to describe its season as positive. The winning mentality is built in the big cup matches: if Inter had not played so confidently in the final with City they would not have restarted with the self-confidence and awareness they showed this year" added the former Rossoneri defender.
"I prefer to wait before talking about technicians for the future of Milan. It's a bit early to make trials with half the season still to go. If in the end Pioli manages to finish second in the league or at the bottom of the Europa League, I don't think he would be sent away so lightly" commented Alessandro Costacurta.
