Gianluca Petrachiguest of TVPlaythus spoke of the arrival of Paulo Fonseca on the bench of Milan: “Milan remains the most renowned club in the world. Coaching Milan is not for everyone. I chose Fonseca at Roma because there was a project linked to the development of young people. He played attacking football, he wanted to win matches through play. I found him prepared. Evidently the price with Italy is paid a little. We have very important coaches and this is demonstrated by the good Carlo Ancelotti who makes us make a good impression on a world level.”
Best wishes to Fonseca: may he be more supported than Pioli.
“Fonseca has his character, then there are those who dissect it in an overbearing way or in a different way. Maybe you might think that Ancelotti is calm and is only judged by appearance. Fonseca knew how to speak with great style and elegance but he also knew how to use a different tone with illustrious players… Fonseca now has an important responsibility. Until now he has never had the obligation to win. I’m curious to understand what kind of response he will give to Milan.”
At Lille he lost the Champions League qualification in the last seconds, but he produced a masterpiece because he took the group as high as possible. At Milan the pressures are different. He will have to be supported, helped, because I think Pioli hasn’t been helped much in the last year. I think he was the lightning rod for many situations. I hope they help him more than Pioli. I can guarantee you that Milan will play with front-wheel drive.”
