After a defensively poor game against Cremonese, AC Milan could see a change made to the backline this weekend.
There were a few criticisms to make from Saturday’s game, though the biggest regarded Milan’s inability to get a job done against a team that had just been promoted. Considering the aims, it should have been a good start point. Instead, it was a chance for things to overflow.
Last season, the same errors were shown again and again, and in the first game, this was again the case, frustratingly. After the game, San Siro let their thoughts known, a new face maybe, but the same Rossoneri.
A first change
Now, Gazzetta dello Sport, as seen below, write that Massimiliano Allegri could reshape the backline a little. Already, he has seen enough, and with his defence-first mindset, this could be the first area to be shuffled.
So, Koni De Winter could be brought in. The summer recruit spent the first game on the bench, but with positive training performances, he could well be given a starting spot against Lecce this weekend. If he were to take a spot, it would be that of Matteo Gabbia’s.
A good reader of the game, the former Genoa man ‘must add’ determination to the backline, especially with the star of the future, Francesco Camarda, hoping to show that he is ready to fulfil destiny eventually.
