MIIT: Allegri calls Milan "chicks" and hopes the team will be more witty and calm at critical moments

In the 11th round of Serie A, Milan led by two goals but Parma tied the score to 2-2. This season, Milan has a problem of whether it is strong or not weak and whether it is weak or not. "Gazzetta dello Sport" took stock of the Rossoneri's performance.

When facing Cremonese, Pisa and Parma, Milan performed quite unstable and made many low-level mistakes. Especially in the game against Parma, Allegri was very dissatisfied with the team's performance, not only because of the failure to win the game, but also because Pulisic and Salma Kors missed great opportunities in the 2-2 draw. He was even more angry during the halftime break because the team allowed the opponent to get a goal back when they were in complete control of the situation, rekindling the suspense of the game.

In the away game against Parma, Estupinian and Fofana performed particularly poorly. The Ecuadorian left-back was responsible for both goals. As for Fofana, he completely missed the opponent's forward in defense. This is not the first time he has made such a mistake. Remember Bonazzoli’s wonderful overhead kick against Cremonese? At that time, Fofana did not keep an eye on the opponent's forward. Other avoidable mistakes include Pavlovich allowing Bascilotto to head home against Cremonese, Derwent raising his arm too high against Pisa, allowing Cuadrado to score from distance, and Arte Came failing to judge offside in time against Gilardino's side.

In the locker room last Saturday, Allegri did not get angry, but he was obviously disappointed that the team wasted the lead. At the same time, he also realized that the team had the same problem last season and was unable to stabilize the situation at critical moments. Despite the introduction of the experienced Modric, he lacked a reliable partner like Rabiot in the second half. Although new aids Estupinian, Derwent and Nkunku all started, they have not yet shown the expected contribution, especially in difficult moments. They failed to help the team stabilize the situation. New aids Ricci and Artekame also did not perform well. Allegri used the word "chick" to describe the team, not just because of the goals conceded, but because he hoped the team could be more resourceful and calm at critical moments. He knows that the team does not have enough strength to dominate the entire season, so it needs psychological growth, whether it is the veterans from last season or the new players.

A championship team will not lose 6 points when leading by two goals (against Pisa, Atalanta and Parma), nor will it fluctuate so much in the second half (Milan scored the most in the first 45 minutes). The Rossoneri can perform well against Roma, Juventus, Bologna and Naples, but frequently concedes goals against relegation teams. This is not the performance that a strong team should have, but more like a "chick". Allegri knows this and is looking for a solution.
