"The Champions League is a competition in itself. Real Madrid were much worse last year and then lifted it. Teams must be ready in March. The first six months are important to arrive in the best possible condition for March, the month in which the season is decided."
"Milan struggle against sides that are towards the bottom end of the table and this must be addressed. However, they have clear leadership, impressive defensive solidity, and a curious ability to turn games their way at key moments."
Massimiliano Allegri emphasizes March as the decisive month in any season, and AC Milan has begun this crucial period with a victory. Milan approaches March in good condition, maintaining the points average of last year's champions Napoli and demonstrating confidence. However, they trail Inter by 10 points. Milan possesses clear leadership, impressive defensive solidity, and an ability to turn games in their favor at key moments, though they struggle against lower-table teams. With 11 games remaining in the Serie A campaign, Milan leads fifth-placed Como by nine points. Allegri's historical relationship with March shows mixed results: strong performances in 2022 and 2023, but a crisis period in 2024 with two draws and two defeats in four league games.
