    In its current form, Milan would struggle against Pisa!

    so... that's that for Allegri, right? 0-3 against a club with nothing to play for when next season is on the line???

    Is pulisic actually hurt? Or is he saving himself for 3 group stage games?

    Who knows, but if Leao's effort is any indication of the vibes in the locker room, I wouldn't want to play either. Allegri looks like he's totally lost this team.

    Obviously we can’t know for sure, but these players did not just suddenly became total crap overnight.
    Methinks there is a mutiny ongoing, these guys probably hate playing for Allegri. That seems the most obvious explanation to me. Even without Modric or CP, this team should be performing much better

    nope! Still, ending 2-3 looks better for Allegri. But outside of the final 10', that was AWFUL.

    Something happened in the locker room at some point. This team just collectively collapsed and gave up on the season.

    Agreed. A complete 180 like this usually points to unhappy players. Almost seems like they want to get their manager fired, which has happened at many a club

    Am reminded of the spat Leao had with Pulisic not passing him the ball. Not that Leao has any room to talk. Pulisic needs out.

    Mutiny is not hard to imagine, their style of football has made me want to claw my eyes out, I can only imagine playing in the system is soul crushing.

    Two years too late. The club has been in denial about the need for a rebuild.

    If they fall out of UCL they have a fire sale right? The projected UCL participation payout is around 25 million dollars with about a 3 million dollar payout per win. So a team like Milan would be losing around 40 million dollars of revenue.

    To think Milan was top of the table early in the season.

    How things have changed.

    If they fail to qualify, he's 100% gone. But I think that even if they do qualify, the board has to consider ditching him... he got the team to the top of the table, and then coasted off that, and now is hobbling towards a 4th place finish. They've had injuries, but... also... they've only played in 2 competitions this year, so those injuries can't be explained by fixture congestion.

    "he got the team to the top of the table, and then coasted off that"

    He coasted off? Allegri by his own admission played Pulisic out of the position that he is most successful. A manager needs to put players in the postion where they can be successful.

    You can find leaos/
    More like 4 years late on leao. I'm not sure who would want him.
    Don't trust zlatan and Co to find adequate replacements

    Hoping he avoids going back to the Premier League, head to La Liga if you must leave Milan.

    ManU is known for throwing stupid money around for mediocre players, so there's hope.

    Very puzzling as neither was lights out in Serie A. if purchased on the cheap I'd get it but for that amount?

    I don't think either played in Italy. I bet Chelsea were in shock when they found out milan were interested
