Costacurta believes Milan’s problems are going under the radar: “Serious thing to be solved” | OneFootball

Throughout the year, there have been several issues of AC Milan’s highlighted, but it seems the biggest of the lot is going under the radar.

Barring a few games, there have been complaints to be had about almost every one of Milan’s matches this season. Whether it is effort, application, consistency or even just general performances, there has always been something.

Questions have arisen as to who is responsible for that, and it seems there will be another overhaul this summer, with the club attempting to figure out the rot, and put a stop to it. However, it seems it will not be that simple.

After the loss last night, Billy Costacurta had his say on the issues, and highlighted something which he feels is not being discussed enough, and his words to Sky have been transcribed by Milan News.

“Loose Milan is there, it has a continuity of ups and downs on concentration that can now be considered weakness. We talk a lot about Leao, Gimenez, but it is at the back that is the problem. It’s at the back that they lose so many points, not in front.

“In front the goals come, the problem is in the back. Two frees in front of the goal in a game like that… The serious thing to be solved is this: Bellanova has two options on goal.”

Considering Sergio Conceicao has changed the defensive shape recently, it leads to asking whether it is a case of personnel, rather than tactics.
