Alberigo Evaniformer AC Milan midfielder, spoke to Rai Radiothe day after being at San Siro for a tour of the pitch with some former Rossoneri players during the party before the match against Genoa for the 125th anniversary of the Rossoneri club, he spoke to Rai Radio. These are his words starting from the moment of Paulo Fonseca’s team: “The team has problems, especially in terms of collective spirit. For yesterday there are extenuating circumstances, a player like Pulisic was missing who solved many problems. Yesterday the midfield suffered, the The team has little balance. Plus it has players who are out of condition, above all Theo Hernandez who is absolutely recovered, when he’s well he’s devastating.”
Fonseca more guilty or more victim?
“A bit of both. The coach’s job is to provide play and tactical order, many times he has been lacking a bit. Since Fonseca arrived he has always found difficulties, he has never been able to work in peace. Fonseca is a an expert coach, I believe and hope that he has identified these problems and will be able to bring Milan back to certain levels.”
You are professionally linked to Roberto Mancini, how would you see him at Milan?
“For Roberto, his CV speaks for itself, he has coached important teams. He has experience to spare. I played with him and he had a certain type of character. As a coach he managed to smooth it out: he would bring back that team spirit that I see Milan is missing at the moment “.
Ibrahimovic?
“He must gain experience, he is not born a manager. He has had some difficulties. Ibra is intelligent, he has personality, but he must change his mentality: he must forget that he was a great player and throw himself into this other role, Milan needs a manager of a certain level”.
