Followers and pundits react to Milan‘s loss towards Borussia Dortmund within the Champions League and lots of imagine Stefano Pioli’s time on the membership will come to an finish in June though the Italian tactician will not be the one one to be blamed.

The Rossoneri have little probabilities to qualify for the Champions League Spherical of 16 as they should beat Newcastle away in two weeks and hope Borussia Dortmund beat PSG at house. Because of Tuesday’s 3-1 win over Milan, the Bundesliga facet have certified for the knockout part with a recreation to spare, however should not but assured to be group winners.

Followers and pundits inevitably focus on the way forward for Pioli on the membership. Milan have collected 5 factors within the Champions League Group F, as many as Newcastle, and have solely received certainly one of their final 5 Serie A conferences. Pioli’s contract expires in June 2025, however many, together with CBS pundit Matteo Bonetti, really feel the Italian tactician will probably be sacked on the finish of the season.

And what ideas on Pioli for Milanisti? Some misfortune final evening – penalty fluffed and centre again disaster – however has persistence run out?

I believe Pioli has ran his course with Milan and that their greatest days collectively are up to now. I believe he’ll be sacked subsequent summer time. I additionally suppose he receives an unfair quantity of blame for each little factor that goes incorrect.

Whereas we don’t disagree, Pioli failing to beat Newcastle + Dortmund beforehand (with an pretty out there squad) once they have been there for the taking – nullifies any logic for tonight and accidents to be an excuse of not making it out of the group.

Our destiny was sown earlier than tonight https://t.co/VhHOs4QII7

Realized as we speak on X that Stefano Pioli is solely guilty for Giroud’s penalty miss and Calabria’s two particular person errors that led to objectives.

Solely approach for Milan to progress from the group: Win at Newcastle + PSG lose at Dortmund. Every other outcome and it’s over.

Individuals criticized final 12 months’s Milan crew.

However final 12 months’s crew, with gamers like Messias, Saelemaekers, and so forth. wouldn’t have been on the backside of this group. (These two gamers alone scored as many UCL objectives as this complete crew have this season.)

It is about coronary heart, not cash.

Stefano Pioli believes he will probably be with out Malick Thiaw for fairly a while.

Speculating right here, however Malick leaving the stadium on crutches spells greater than a month in any case.

Jan-Carlo Simić is perhaps debuting quickly.

Milan offered off a key participant to go and reinvest for a batch…

Nightmare recreation for Milan. Defensively a large number. Calabria & Maignan terrible

Pioli performed into BVB arms, they lower via really easy on transition. Adli too open at regista

Assault blunt with out Leao. One other damage too

Massive questions of Pioli. 2W 2D 4L in final 8. Want miracle to go via

Time to rent an exterior investigation to look into Milan’s coaching, vitamin and restoration procedures. This screams incompetence. And it’s not the primary time Milan is affected by an immense variety of accidents… https://t.co/u9v9KTutHJ

3-1 Loss. Can confidently say majority of us noticed this coming.

We haven’t been ok. They appear displaced and misplaced on the sphere and it been exhibiting off discipline as effectively.

Main main adjustments must occur within the upcoming weeks in any other case we received’t be getting high 4.

There’s a time for every thing, a starting and an ending.
I believe for Pioli the latter the one answer, we’re going backwards, regardless of getting few new gamers, issues aren’t working.
