Balotelli: against Carpi, SuperMario wants to go back to score

After Juventus and Sampdoria, Mario Balotelli is ready tonight against Carpi to play his third consecutive race chosen: the number 45 Milan player seems to be in fact now become the shoulder holder Carlos Bacca, by which the understanding is improving day after day. The provision of Genoa against Sampdoria was very positive, especially in the attitude level, but now it's time for SuperMario returning to score in Serie A because a network is missing for too long.

FASTING TOO LONG - As told Tuttosport this morning, in the championship Balotelli does not end on the scoresheet for seven months, his last goal dates back to September 22, 2015 when he scored on Udinese with a beautiful free kick. In recent months, the AC Milan player has had a very troublesome physical problem such as the groin that kept him out for a long time, but at the level realized in via Aldo Rossi undoubtedly expected more by the attacker in dry loan from Liverpool.

RIGHT STRINGS - Despite being on Milan's bench for a few days, Cristian Brocchi seems to have struck a chord with Balotelli, who against Sampdoria has sacrificed much and played with and for the team. In this season finale, SuperMario will play the confirmation also Rossoneri next season, but to do so will necessarily have to start scoring some goals because the attacker's task is basically just that.

Ital-Milan project, but the foreign ace makes the difference

The Ital-Milan project continues, at least according to the will of Silvio Berlusconi. Until the president Rossoneri remain in the saddle, with majority stakes in its possession, the club will report to him and to his explicit based on the explosion technical line of young players and Italian, even better if leaked from the youth sector of Milanello. A move amarcord that of Berlusconi, to try to imitate the extraordinary Milan almost all Italian '80s and' 90s.

But according to well-specific analysis carried out today by Tuttosport, not just a Milan made only of Italians, for several reasons. And because of our own star players around the world there are very few, such as Marco Verratti but is in no way intending to return to Serie A, and because the help of foreign star players is a must, even to make the rose Milan a little more international. Carlos Bacca it is the most striking example, one of the few non-Italian owners of the current Rossoneri, but always decisive with his goals as pure striker.

In fact, with Cristian Brocchi it will inflate the Italian design of Milan, with the short-term launch of at least a couple more talents Primavera Rossoneri, but the fact remains that someone like Berry serves as bread, for the class and maturity acquired far from our own borders. A little 'as happened to Arrigo Sacchi, who formed a Milan rich in talent grown right at Milanello and surroundings, but managed to elevate himself to the team' top 'thanks to the contribution of foreign three Dutch Marco van Basten, Ruud Gullit and Frank Rijkaard.

Tactical Analysis: fought victory

Revolution still far from a tactical point of view for Milan Cristian Brocchi, as now headline the BBC; but it was a consequence rather understandable, given that the young coach former Spring has played only five days of training, too little to give a personal and different impression to a team among others in difficulty and results in crisis.

In Genoa came a heavy and significant victory, but there is still much work to develop some strategic dictates, both in the basic form, this 'roar' renovated, is in the mode of phrasing.

Sampdoria-Milan, the tactical analysis

As explained in the 'rosy', AC Milan yesterday to 'Marassi' tried to interpret diagrams so dear to Silvio Berlusconi, the 4-3-1-2, but with a serious problem: Giacomo Bonaventura and its location between the lines. Former Atalanta is not a playmaker and a whole long struggled to find the right moves, so as to be hardly present in not being held. Better when he did what he does best, which is moving on the flanks, so as to serve a pair of assists to kiss just from the band. You will be working on these core movements.

The numbers speak of a revolution far from completed by Brocchi: only ten steps more than in Milan Sinisa Mihajlovic despite the ball possession is in the main strings of his football creed. still very low center of gravity, estimated at 47.3 meters, as well as the ball recovery area around 27 meters average. Team too shy and tends to lengthen, defects that need to be taken care of in the next few weeks to give a different tactic semblance.

Sampdoria-Milan: official team

That's the official line soon on the pitch at the Stadio Ferraris between Sampdoria-Milan, match valid for the 33 ^ day:

Sampdoria: Viviano; Diakite, Silvestre, Cassani; De Silvestri, Fernando, Krsticic, Dodo; Soriano, Alvarez; Quagliarella. Facilities: Brignoli, Puggioni, Pereira, Correa, Palombo, Rodriguez, Moisander, Muriel, Škriniar, Christodoulopoulos, Barreto. Coach: Vincenzo Montella

Milan dreams Pastore for the trocar

MILAN - It 'farewell Clarence Seedorf at Milan lacks a true number 10 player of flair and imagination can make a difference by climbing into the chair when there are difficulties. The kind of player who with a great play, an assist or a goal, decide even the most demanding games.

When the Dutch left Milanello, his jersey was inherited first by Kevin-Prince Boateng and then by Keisuke Honda. There have been critical of the fans, used to seeing that number on the shoulders of great champions. Just think of the legendary Gianni Rivera and Manuel Rui Costa, just to name two.

The passage number of 10 players not up to the greats of the past is one of many signs of the club's downsizing in recent years.

Milan transfer market, Pastore dream for summer

As revealed by calciomercato.com, Adriano Galliani is closely following the situation of Javier Pastore to Paris St Germain. The 26-year old Argentinean has played little this season, mainly because of the many accused physical problems, but in general did not think coach Laurent Blanc meant focus on him as proprietor. The hypothesis of a farewell in Paris for the former Palermo is far-fetched and AC Milan hopes to enter to close the deal.

Let's face it, today is difficult to imagine that Silvio Berlusconi can do this type of investment. Between card and the gross salary they probably would exceed the 30 million euro. You might think to finance the transaction with the sale of Carlos Bacca, but then will still go buy a new striker can guarantee at least the same Colombian goal. Easier than Shepherd can come if Milan was bought by the Chinese consortium of so much talked about. With Asian capitals we could finally get back to design a great team and the Argentine can be one of the stars.

With the current property it is difficult to think that the club back to the early leaders, not surprisingly there has been talk of a youth project that takes years before it may prove successful. In this context, attracting major names is complicated. But with the advent of investors from China, it would change the discourse. The playmaker of the PSG would be a perfect shot, both in case of using the 4-3-1-2 module for 4-2-3-1. Obviously will check his physical condition before making any purchase, but the qualities of the player are not discussed.

Conference the new coach C.Brocchi: " I'm here to win "

Before the pre-race press conference for Cristian Brocchi as Milan coach. The new Milan coach, who replaced Sinisa Mihajlovic earlier this week, is working these days to better prepare the delicate challenge of tomorrow night against Sampdoria, valid for the postponement of the 33th matchday of Serie A.

Brocchi, which was presented to the press on Tuesday afternoon, started the press conference honoring Japan: "" I express my condolences to the Japanese people, having also Japanese nationals in pink and my staff seemed right to do this before you start the conference".

Sampdoria. Brocchi then speaks of Sampdoria, very tricky team: "Sampdoria I have this, I have also talked about if we have not yet entered specifically. In withdrawal we will speak more precisely. In the exercises proposed and what we have experienced in the field an opponent eye to what he does on the field he was given. There is a shock to the change of coach ".

FIRST APPROACH. The new Milan coach says the first impact with the players: "It 's normal that in the early days by some of us were a bit' sad. I for one was bound to him because he had a fantastic relationship with me. So great respect for this initial situation. Then I saw the players with a desire to listen, to work and careful, I saw desire to do something good. "

DIALOGUE. Brocchi will be important to get into the head of his boys to get the most in these few games: "Talking to men rather than boys, men who already have a past, it is more difficult. Even an adult player needs certainty, it needs to know. This for me is a very important thing, I talked to almost everyone even at single level. With that I think we can lay the foundations for a job that will not be simple, but beautiful and exciting. "

MOVES TACTICS. AC Milan, in the course of this season, has never expressed a harmonious play. Brocchi can not do that in just a few days: "If I thought that tomorrow AC Milan were to take the field playing football I have in mind would be presumptuous. There are magicians who in a few days they can distort the ideas of a team that has been working with other coaches and other modes. Tomorrow I will see a 5% approach to what I want to see in the field, and I asked to week. " This is what you like to see the former coach of the Rossoneri Primavera: "I want the most simple things that I asked to be made. I hope they give me all of the signals that you are playing something important. Each player must not think of the ego, but to us. Tomorrow the most important thing will be to think of Milan. Who will take the field for 90 minutes or 5 to show that I want to wear the Milan shirt is vital. "

Playmaker. The leading candidate for the role of playmaker is certainly Giacomo Bonaventura: "It 's a possibility that Bonaventura pose play attacking midfielder. It has the features to do it and when the team will be able to internalize the concepts with which I want to play in that position will be an attacking midfielder or even a midfield. It 'a path that I also did with other players over the course of my career. These days I tried some situations, but I need to know as manager of individual players. I have done experiments and trials. "

HOLDERS. These days, the coach has tried in training the owner can team tomorrow: "In my way of seeing things is normal that during the week there is a team of potential holders or not, but the nice thing is that the players of Team potentially holder gives me certainty more in case you want to put them in the field. I had some important answers on who was in training does not hold. "

NOTHING upheavals. Brocchi want to change, starting from the module. But there is no need to revolutionize: "I'm not going to upset anything. Players have certainties, but they do not have the security of all. For me it is more important to the group and what you give to the cause rather than the individual player. It 's too important to talk about what to do on the pitch and the game. Then things will think of the company by the company that the engine will search do good and the best of Milan. "

ATTITUDE. The coach has repeatedly highlighted what are its demands to the team: "What I will ask the team to go forward and attack and occupy the space forward, because it is easier than to run 40 meters back. My will is that the attackers manage to carve out spaces useful to go to the end and occupy the area and that they are not too out and play ball. I will ask their interpretation of the race of a certain type. You can not expect in the modern game to play with strikers who do not help. There must be the desire to sacrifice himself for the team. "

MENTAL STRENGTH. Brocchi has worked so hard on the tactical level, but without neglecting the psychological, that still need much support: "As a coach I have always focused a lot on the mental. Even the most advanced players need to be strong mentally. If a player in the same game has less knowledge and the team does not work together even the individual is more difficult. The knowledge also helps the mental level in the difficult moments of the race. "

MIDFIELD. For the coach, the basic unit is the midfield, where it is developing the game: "For characteristics I think I have the midfielders to make the game that I have in mind. I think the game should be played in the best way in midfield. I think the midfield the most important department in game development. I want the game always goes through the midfielders. The roar I give you certainty in more both in the possession of non-possession. "

Balotelli. He could not miss the topic Mario Balotelli. Brocchi tells how he has seen these days: "I can not think Balotelli interpreters of his races as Kucka, but not vice versa. Each player has its own characteristics. What matters it is that each team games. I found Balotelli eager, promised me he will try to give everything in the latter period. In the past he knew that he had other opportunities, even on a subconscious level. The hope is that in these games show his qualities and especially face to see if it really is linked to the Milan shirt. "

HONDA. The Japanese is a real playmaker, but the former midfielder does not see only one way: "Honda will have the chance to show off. Will not be a Milan always play with the 4-3-1-2, there is the possibility that the three offensive may open up. Honda can play both as a winger that playmaker. From the point of view of the attitude in training this week has been very good. With Juventus the team played at high intensity on a mental level. I have not found evil. It 's normal that when coaches changes also change training methods. We have seen to what extent they were and from them ".

AcMilan Sold, the Chinese want to close by June

AC Milan to the Chinese. The rumor this morning launched by The Republic and also from other sources has made the tour of Italy in minutes: even you could close very quickly. There is talk of a proposal for a 300 million euro for 60-70%, with a further recapitalization of 500 million so as to clear the debts of the current Silvio Berlusconi.
