'Slowing down' - Capello voices top four worries and makes Pulisic-Ronaldo comparison
"I didn't like the team we saw against Fiorentina at all. Milan played the opposite of how Inter and Napoli showed us that evening. The Rossoneri walked; the others ran. I saw a Milan team that was too slow, even in passing the ball, lacking ideas and play. Everything was too basic, I'd almost say academic. That's how you struggle to get results."
"Pulisic did it all, with the kind assistance of Füllkrug. The attacking duo created two or three chances to score out of nowhere, but the American uncharacteristically missed them all. Mistakes uncharacteristic of him, like when he tried to beat De Gea instead of shooting, even though there was no space: in that space, only Ronaldo Fenomeno managed to dribble past the goalkeeper and score. But beyond the incidents, Milan's attitude didn't convince me right from the start."
AC Milan have produced standout wins but then followed them with disappointing draws that erode momentum and undermine Scudetto prospects. For every high-profile victory there has typically been a subsequent lacklustre result, allowing rivals to gain ground. In several matches Milan have appeared slow, predictable in passing, and lacking ideas or movement compared with more dynamic opponents. Occasional uncharacteristic individual mistakes have wasted scoring opportunities and cost points. The recurring inconsistency has left the club vulnerable to slipping out of the top four, which would carry serious competitive and strategic consequences.
