Fonseca sacking, Milan fans are frozen and not everyone took it well. The decision that reverses things immediately
Let’s face it: Paulo Fonseca did not have the best start to the season inside Milan. It seemed, however, that the victory in the derby against Inter could have marked the turning point, but that was not the case.
After the extracittadina, in fact, came two more defeats: one in the Champions League and the other in the league, which not only pushed the Rossoneri away from the top of the standings in Serie A, but also leave Milan at the bottom of the European one. To rise again there is time, there are six more matches scheduled under the new formula desired by Uefa, so to move forward nothing is lost. Going back to Fonseca, there are clearly problems so much so that many Milan fans have hoped, and are hoping, for an exoneration. Of course, who could replace him? Almost the same people are pushing for Allegri, but the Milan management, at least according to the information that has been reported by Gazzetta dello Sport, think differently.
Fonseca exonerated, Milan gives him confidence
When the results don’t come, the coach is always questioned. But perhaps for one of the first times in history this does not seem to be the case. In fact, the newspaper reveals that the club has the utmost confidence in the Portuguese coach and he is considered the right man, in the right place, for the project the club has in mind. In short, he is not risking anything for now, although clearly a breakthrough is needed.
As against Udinese, Bruges in the Champions League and Bologna, points are needed. A total turnaround to a season is needed. And the commitments, for a team like Milan, are not exactly that prohibitive. On the contrary, nine points in these three outings are definitely within reach and, the feeling, is that Fonseca is really playing for the future in the coming weeks. Because confidence, in addition to words, must surely be earned with deeds. And facts, for a coach, are results: nothing more and nothing less. Trust for the term, we could say.
