"In the latest edition of the bonus podcast, Oliver and Anthony discussed the aftermath of the Coppa Italia exit, also looking at the precedent with Napoli in 2024-25. After a pretty bland performance, struggling to create chances, Milan were knocked out of the Coppa Italia on Thursday evening. Lazio scored the only goal of the game and thus advanced to the quarter-finals, with Max Allegri left shaking his head."
"For Milan, however, it wasn't just a wake-up call for their lack of quality depth. In the last two seasons, both Scudetto winners were knocked out of the Coppa Italia Round of 16 (first Inter and Napoli), making things interesting for the Rossoneri to say the least. In the latest edition of the bonus podcast, this is exactly what Oliuevr and Anthony talked about. They also discussed some of the starting eleven choices for the Lazio game, highlighting where reinforcement might be needed."
