Recently, Milan legend Tassotti talked about many topics including Fonseca and Milan in an interview with Gazzetta dello Sport.
Tassotti: "I think we have to take it slow. Milan is now trying to practice an aggressive and controlling tactic."
"This is a special moment this season. Many people are not in their best form, and many players are new. Fonseca also needs time to understand the players' ideas."
"We should be more careful at this stage. One day Milan will fully implement the coach's ideas, but maybe they can't do it in just 20 days."
Tassotti: "In fact, I don't know if Milan still needs this kind of offensive tendency... We already have Theo, you know, usually in this case the team needs to be balanced and needs another full-back who is good at defense."
Tassotti: "The team lacks balance and is divided into two. It is not like a whole and it is easy to lose the ball in the counterattack."
"Compared to the one-on-one defense last season, I think Milan now wants to implement zone defense, but I don't know how much time they have to train this."
"Pavlovic and Emerson arrived late. These tactical things cannot be fully understood with a snap of the fingers. It takes time and practice. The most important thing is that Milan now needs to be more like a team when defending."
"If Milan wants to make a name for themselves on the offensive end, then they need to let the offensive players also participate in the team's defense. I am not targeting Leo alone. In modern football, defense and offense must be completed by the 11 players on the field."
