There are two statistical data that give a good snapshot of the quality of Milan’s championship. Away from San Siro, Milan are struggling a lot. With the defeat against Atalanta, in fact, the number of matches in which the Rossoneri did not obtain victories in the championship reached five by not playing within friendly walls. In six matches, Morata and his teammates have only won one (the 0-1 in Monza, among other things, spoiled by an unedifying performance), in addition to the derby, played at San Siro, but in the Nerazzurri format.
Motivations
It is difficult to find unambiguous reasons for these statistics. Certainly, the mental strength of this team is very important, supported at home by the 70,000 average at San Siro, but devastated away by the opposing fans. In Bergamo, after Pulisic’s exit, Milan no longer knew how to attack, they never threatened, they lacked courage. And in the end, as often happens in these cases, he lost the game.
Big match
And, often, Fonseca has also lost big matches, again in this case, derby aside. In the current championship, this is the score against the top six teams in the championship: Lazio 2-2 Milan, Inter 1-2 Milan, Fiorentina 2-1 Milan, Milan 0-2 Napoli, Milan 0-0 Juventus, Atalanta 2- 1 Milan. Only one victory, two draws, three defeats: numbers for a team that can’t aspire to anything more than a placing… from fourth place down. And it’s obviously not good,
