Baroni believes Milan are a ‘strong side’ despite ‘crazy’ individuality | OneFootball

At present, AC Milan are wounded, but they cannot tend to their injuries. Instead, they must get up and go again with another crucial game awaiting them.

This week will likely be viewed as make or break come May, and the past seven days have suggested as much. A chance for Milan to bring themselves back into the European picture, or the week that would end their hopes.

Last night, the Rossoneri fell to defeat against the Bologna, and despite some officiating controversy, the Diavolo are almost entirely to blame. Mistakes made at the Stadio Dall’Ara were not new ones, instead, it was a performance which has been seen so often this season.

Milan, again, did not do enough, and on Sunday against Lazio the same can not be said, and if it is, it could be the end for Sergio Conceicao as the Diavolo’s head coach.

Ahead of Sunday’s game against the Rossoneri, the Lazio head coach spoke to TMW, and Milan News have relayed his words.

How is Vecino? Will Provedel get his goalkeeping back?

“For the goalkeepers, you will see on Sunday. Vecino is a fundamental player for us, I repeat. When there are these injuries, you have to feel and understand the player’s feelings, the player is very close.

How much has Milan changed since 31 August?

“It’s a strong team, to get to the Champions League you need to win games and Milan have all the qualities to do that. In January they changed players, strong players left and others arrived. They have crazy individuality, we have to work as a team and limit their individual qualities to a minimum.”
