CM: Milan overcome hoodoo with Verona win - what is needed to challenge for the Scudetto
"AC Milan finally brushed off their struggles beating bottom-half teams, but more is needed to prove they can win the Scudetto. As Calciomercato.com recall, the defeat to Cremonese in round one and the draws with Pisa, Parma, and Sassuolo meant that there was talk of a 'hoodoo' involving the smaller teams. Sunday's 3-0 win over Hellas Verona certainly eased some of those fears."
"The match against Verona must be a new beginning for Milan, who are called upon to approach these types of matches with the same focus, concentration and discipline they haven't always shown. Some reinforcements for the squad wouldn't hurt either. A signing has already arrived at Milanello and is already warming up for his debut in Cagliari: Niclas Fullkrug. Milan were looking for a No.9 with certain characteristics, and Allegri was immediately satisfied. The German striker can play from January 2, but more additions might follow."
AC Milan struggled early against lower-ranked teams, dropping points and prompting concerns after a defeat to Cremonese and draws with Pisa, Parma and Sassuolo. A 3-0 win over Hellas Verona provided a decisive response and a clean sheet that alleviated immediate doubts. Milan perform strongly against European rivals with over two points per game, but inconsistency versus weaker opponents limits title credentials. Squad strengthening resumed with Rabiot's arrival and Niclas Fullkrug's registration from January 2. Additional reinforcements are desired, particularly an adaptable central defender to complement Koni De Winter and add experience and depth.
