This season, it is impossible not to include AC Milan in the Scudetto contender conversation. In fact, at this stage, it may even be difficult to suggest that they may not be favourites…
Without Europe, many believed that Milan would have a potentially easier run at a top-four spot, with Massimiliano Allegri able to work with the team more often and bring his ideas in gradually. However, this was done in the summer.
After the Cremonese game, the Rossoneri have looked almost flawless and further improvements cannot be written off. As Fabio Capello stated, a situation that few saw coming.
Milanello, San Siro, social media
Corriere della Sera, via Milan Press, writes that the team and fans ‘trust Allegri blindly, buying into his ideas and believing them. Things that were evidently missing last season. Results help, of course, but an identifiable system also does.
Everything is different thanks to the Italian, and the love is tangible. From San Siro to social media, the appreciation for the Livorno-born coach can be felt and this remains the case at Milanello too. Football can often be overcomplicated, but with Allegri, it becomes quite simple.
Trust and belief bring appreciation and, more importantly, results.
