Everything that has been happening at and in Milan in recent months is very serious. Yesterday there was a negative apotheosis: the 125th anniversary celebration when there was already nothing to celebrate, a deadly boring match and a very strong protest from the fans at the end of the match. What are we celebrating? At Milan, certainly, nothing. Indeed: the situation is so serious that, even if yesterday’s match had gone well, few would have celebrated anyway.
Problems
The very serious thing that came to my mind while I was watching the match yesterday from the San Siro press gallery is that the hope that things can change is truly residual. Because reality says that the problems were created by ownership and management and that, as long as this ownership and management are there, the problems will not be solved. Maybe they will ease, maybe they will increase, but they will hardly be resolved. Because, quite simply, those who create them cannot solve problems.
Which
And this ownership, represented by Gerry Cardinale and Zlatan Ibrahimovic, has created many in just a few months of management: a coach evidently not suited to the club’s ambitions and poorly digested by those of the players, declarations that are always very borderline and never confirmed by the facts, a poorly constructed squad with no replacements, players and coach left to their own devices in a very critical situation for everyone. How can all these things be solved?
