AC Milan had a flashy and strong win. They get these kinds of victories from time to time. Milan started the match quickly. Tijjani Reijnders scored Milan's first goal in the third minute. Reijnders draws attention with his play in the central midfield this season.
18-year-old young defender Simic came on as a substitute in his first match and scored his first goal. It was a perfect start and I'm sure it was a great feeling for him. This match looked like Milan was showing signs of a comeback.
Yes, Simic's goal was great for him and Milan. Milan urgently need to find a solution to their muscle injuries, otherwise it will be very difficult for them both in the league and in Europe. When I saw the score 3-0, I thought dida, maldini, serginho, nesta, stam, pirlo, gattunso, kaka, inzaghi, shevcenko were back in football. You know milan can't score like that these days. In the 3rd goal Giroud made the same assist in the Newcastle match, it is inconceivable to think and play so fast in the penalty area. He was seriously so good and it was an amazing pass. I also think future looked brighter for Milan.
Wo you made me remember those memorable moments when there were those football samples, they were amazing, above all I remember that full back Izquiero Madini, one of the best full backs, defenders in the world, the most Recognizable for me, also of Kaká who played As a very magical being, all he did was show off, in fact he was one of those players who did not fall before Messi's magic, because he taught him how to run Messi, whom at the time Messi only saw when the player He took Advantage with the ball running and he shot and scored a Tremendous goal, I think it is one of the things that the Argentinian star had not done to him in a long time, Kaká with his humility but showing great Professionalism Said that he was here , I can't Remember very Well , how they all went, but I remember those epic moments when Messi couldn't achieve it, and I also like that this team is doing well, because they deserve for Milan to shine again too.
Now when we show that a player can make a Difference , as has happened in some leagues, such as in Ligue 1 with Mbappé , well, if that can still happen, what you know is that now everything is focusing on doing other things, Not everyone seeks to be stars, but they seek to be in a team that will lead them to win the Local League faster, and that will subsequently be very strong for the UCL, that is a strong candidate to win, as for example City, Real Madrid , the Barcelona-ism, but at the moment Barcelona is not doing very well, they are losing too much, I think that the Xavi era has already run out of Opportunities in the team because I don't think that Barcelona will renew a new contract, because that would be how to fall like the MU, who don't win anything and what they do is fire players, lol, they don't fire the one who is Actually doing things wrong, who is the coach, so I think Xavi should step aside.
Transfer News: Liverpool want elite CB prospect, Juve could steal Lazio star, Milan’s top ST targetLast season, Napoli dominated the Italian Serie A and despite Inter Milan's brilliance of last season that saw them reach the final UEFA Champions League league, they couldn't match Napoli's performance in the Italian league. However, Inter Milan manager Simone Inzaghi has taken it upon himself to make sure he rewrites that particular story of concerning the dominance of the Italian league this season and his determination to make sure his side dominates the most part of the league this season as well as winning the league at the end of the season has seen Inter Milan deliver incredible performances in the league since the start of the season. They've undoubtedly been the most consistent team in the Italian Serie A but how they've managed to win most of the away games against top teams in the league this season has completely been a surprise to me. Lazio as we all know is a strong Italian team but just like majority of the opponents Inter Milan faced in the league this season, they were convincingly defeated yesterday as Inter Milan extended their lead at the top of the table back to four points.
Inter Milan has been performing exceptionally well in the UEFA Champions League since the start of the season but I think they're more focused in winning the Italian Serie A title at the end of the season more than they're interested in winning the UCL and if they can continue with their current form in the league, I don't think there's anything that's gonna stop them from winning the league this season.
Napoli last season was really impressive, they even made fans of other teams across Europe develop love for them, based on their style of play and success rate in their league, which made them win the Scudetto for the 2022/23 season but they failed when they made the wrong choice of coach and it really hindered their performance at the early stages of this season, well I doubt if they'll be able to defend their trophy this season cause Intermilan Is hell bent on winning the league this season, they've been really dominant for a while and I see them as the potential winners of the Scudetto.
Since the arrival of Napoli's new coach, they've been trying to get back together and are doing pretty good, however they ought to ensure that consistency should be the goal, if they want to qualify for the UCL, they're in the 5th place on the standing with just few points away from being among top four, therefore I feel the top four race is not over for them yet , cause there are still lots of games remaining to be played.
Well, the truth is , I have always thought that Napoli was very lucky last Season , because in View of what happened with Juve it was very Beneficial for them, the fact that they took 14 points from a team, and that reduce the way to reach them, that is why Napoli was able to win, I know that some will say no, but you only have to look at their performance in these moments, in Serie A they were first , in the UCL not they did nothing, so these types of things are what one says, did they really deserve to win? They really deserved to be in the UCL and take the piss out of which team that Would really go for this? All these things are what one as a fan says, it's good, they have very good players, but they haven't come out on top , Napoli is already like another team, last season they did it badly, luck helped them and they were able to get out Go Ahead , but they were not the Overwhelming team that Everyone thinks.
For me, the team that Should always have been in a strong competition was Juve, but like UEFA, SerieA, it's as if everyone wanted Juve to do badly, because the last thing was the sanctions against them, they couldn't do it. If not, they left them alone and now the only thing they can do is leave it for Serie A, I think things could be like that, I don't understand why so much severe punishment for this team, now they are about to fight for first place , these types of teams Yes they Deserve to be in a competition, but Napoli? Well, only the Napoli fans who can do something, but the performance they have shown so far has been very bad, I could say that even Milan itself is doing things very well, for me the best team in Italy so far, Now I consider Inter , Juve , Milan , Roma , Despite Everything I like what Roma is doing, in this order of Things are quite good for these Teams.
