Hey lol 🎉 I was one of those guys who pointed out your criticisms of Pulisic. I actually wanted to point out that I was wrong. You don’t just use Pulisic as the thumbnail when Milan lost, you kinda use him as a thumbnail a lot in general for wins and losses. So I was wrong on that one.
good thumbnail because he brings attention
@@codynguyen08that’s the other point I was making. It’s a good strategy.
Props for admitting your mistake, forza milan
It's all love, always! Even when Milanisti disagree with me and take me task - sometimes rightfully so! 🫶🏼
@@footballkushhell yeah man as a newbie to being a fan of this club your channel has been a great introduction. I am going to keep being a fan even after Pulisic leaves. Milan has a fan for life and your a big reason why. You’re the man.
I think a lot of the American fans who are following Milan for Pulisic and Musah are very protective over them now. The crap with Chelsea fans and Pulisic is pretty widely known, but Musah went through *a lot* at Valencia. I remember reading an article about how he had to run to his car and had stuff thrown at him by so-called fans after a Valencia game, just so uncalled for. Musah still has a lot of development to go through but I think he has so much upside and a ton of determination. Both of these guys have a lot of heart and are going to play their asses off for the badge. For me in the last video it was more that (imo) Puli didn't deserve a red box because outside of the missed chance he was doing a ton of work. A yellow box probably would have been more appropriate in my mind.
Leao still isn't impressing me at all. That stupid chip shot that he took, when he had Romero on his right ready to go, was extremely frustrating to watch. Just- why??? I'm getting to the point where I say, once Chukweuze comes back from injury, throw Pulisic on the left, Chuk on the right, and see what happens. Especially because Puli is producing even while technically being played out of position. What would he cook up in his natural spot? Leao gives an air of complacency, and maybe a spell on the bench could help get his fire back.
Agree with you on the second take, Leão needs to step up in games like these.
Love this new video style hearing from the fans!

As an American I would absolutely love to see Jonathan David come to Milan. His Hunger and link up play is greatly needed. Plus I think most people don’t get angry at you for Criticizing Pulisic, for me it was the games you chose to do it. Most Americans are searching for a fan base which actually shows us respect and doesn’t use our players as scapegoats. Keep up the good work, I think you’re doing a great job. Forza Milan!
I'm sorry but MLS players are not good enough for Europe 👎
I don't understand pioli's substitutions why did he take off pulisic at half time , every time pulisic was on ball it seemed like something could happen.
Leao and theo lot of times seem very casual. It's high time they need to perform.
Right ✔️😢
Pulisic had a cramp he needed me to massage him
He was injured, there was no need to risk him
Injured
I wish we had a ac Milan bar in my country 😄❤️
Whereabouts are you? If anything, start a Milan club in your city, you never know!
@@footballkush I live in Trinidad and Tobago in the Caribbean.
Nice video my man ! Keep ‘Em coming and Forza Milan !
Man what a fun video! I’m disappointed with the result but I’m happy with that first half performance 💪
puli was cooking
Glad you enjoyed! This one is on the coach though, should've closed it out.
bro said pusilic 0:28 💀
Football Kush is smart. He knows Pulisic thumbnails = more interactions. Good or bad performances from Pulisic do not matter LMAO
Love the new format❤❤
I have commented before on how I think Milan should not just throw away our coach and to be patient for this year. I still believe Pioli needs to be able to prove his worth with this squad but he threw this game away. This is NOT just a lack of effort this is a screw up. This draw is primarily his fault by bringing in a kid for the first time in a game at the Maradonna and not changing plans when the tactic clearly doesn't work. This game should have been won after half time and he blew it.
Leao as usual for this season needs to show why we are paying him so much. This is just not enough bro. Speaking of someone who needs to evolve, Leao needs to be able to provide when there are defenders in front of him. Right now, he's simply looking for free space teams are not dumb enough to give him.
Can't say it any better, Pioli dropped the ball big time this season. Leao on the other hand needs to do more, he needs to evolve in his style of play, driving and beating defenders should be an important arsenal in his game, not his only game!
Let me break this down in order of importance for Milan going forward and tie in this video. Which by the way is my favorite tbat you’ve done so keep up the great work Kush.
1. Since preseason and still going forward Christian pulisic has shown and will Contiue to be Milan’s most important and influential player accept for maybe tomori. This game is a microcosm of the season and the attacking threat Milan had in the first compared to the second. Leao was done a favor the last three years but not having a right sided counter part who is actually better at finishing, better at dribbling in tight spaces and better final
Third decision making. Will it take till the end of the season for people
To realize pulsiic will lead the team in contributons while playing on his WEAK foot side. I wonder? What I can say outright is Leao is a star, not a super star and not a future captain. Look at players like tomori,
Maignon or even pulsiic in the next coming years.
2. Pioli did a brilliant job holding that to a 2-2 draw despite the fact that his starting CB was out and then his backup had to hobble off injured as well as their best attacker by far came off at half. You guys think Milan needs more depth but look who’s injured. Chucky, benacer, RLC thiaw on a red, Milan might be the most deep side in serie A!! The backups are just hurt. It happens.
3. Rafa needs to step it up. If chucky was healthy pulsiic would be on the left wing, maybe for this game and chucky on the right. Sometimes players need to be on the bench at big clubs to realize they need to play with 90
Minutes of focus.
@@AdiqueBrown will see. You can’t deny this is a clearly different Leao from his last two years. And look at Christian’s goals and assists per 90 at Chelsea. He lead that team for 4 years but they never played him. He had 10 and 11 in the prem as a 20 year old. He’s got way better IQ and finishes better. Haven’t you had enough of Leao just dribbling into two guys for the 50th time. And he’s still
A star. But we need to start viewing as pulisic is one too. But let’s hope they work together to win scudetto!
@@AdiqueBrown pulsiic will have more GA than Leao and he’s playing from his WEAK FOOT side just to give Leao the time he needs to adiust or whatever this grace period is. They each have 6 GA but pulsics are in 100 less minutes. And we’re a fifth of the way through. It’s a strong sample. And like I said it’s the first time Leao had a fellow winger who’s just as influential as him on the stat sheet but does it a totally different way. And that’s affecting him. It’s clear. The last two years he’s had sale makers and messias who has 3 combined goals in a year lol. This isn’t Leao hate. I think he’s a star, but I also think he thinks he’s a super star above pulsiic and I’ve counted like 5 big chances in the box this year he could have slid him
In and was like naaaaaah. And that’s frustrating AF as a fan of Milan and good football. Imagine if he didn’t wait till the 7th mijute to want to play truly unselfishly, you would have mane and salah esc wingers. Yes, pulsiic is that good. And i said this on this channel at the start of the year. Leao could be on bench for a bit and then shifted to the 9 if he does what he did yesterday and chuckweze is healthy. Bc then you get a more diverse winger in CP coming at you with his dominant foot and you’ll see goals like he had against Germany.
Loved this video! It’s great to see the milan community so close to home. I’m gonna have to stop by the mills!
You definitely should, it’s packed on the big match days so make sure to drop by!
No matter what , belieeeevee ♥️🖤
You always make sure to remind us! 🫶🏼
@@footballkush lately I feel a lot of “fans” don’t believe in 🖤♥️
And today's shout out goes to Davide Calabria. Good performance keep on going! If he'd score that header at the end, OMG the emotion and would it be a 10 points match.
Pellegrino doesn't seems ready but I hope he gets more minutes. Musah keeps growing
Captain Milan ❤🖤
Omg Pulisic 🎉😮
Great video! I agree on y'all takes. Theo definitely needs competition to wake up performance-wise. He's fallen asleep cause he knows that even if he drops a disaster-class, he will still start the next game. He's too comfortable
That lackadaisical attitude must creep in!
Milan walked out of the Maradona with a point, having outplayed Napoli that first half with their second choice midfield, and 5th choice cb, and it feels like a loss. Milan is back baby.
To me the issue is Leao! His work rate is not there. He acts like a superstar. Yet, he doesn’t do anything
I think he has mental issues.. he's delusional.. the fame he got worked against him cause he has no control over his ego..
Milan needs to stop overhyping their players because that's what you get.. Theo and Tonali had the same ego issue
Forza Milan ❤🖤❤🖤
Whenever we see a moment when everything's against Pioli, somehow Pioli transforms the team on positive note. Pioli somehow manages to keep his job. It's interesting if he gets sacked. I would like an upgrade in coaching side.
Consistency is key
Something is wrong in the locker room... There's no leader on the field... No one taking change of the team as far as I can see...
I fully believe Pioli has lost the locker room. And it shows in how we play as individuals and not as a team.
Serious drop off in Theo too!
I'm really hoping leao isn't one of those players, who turn out to be "what if"... He's talented but.....
Leao doesn’t preform in the big games, doesn’t do anything for Portugal on the big stage, hasn’t done anything against the big serie a games hope we get a good offer for him in the summer
Don't fool yourself. Players have bad stints
Time to cash in on this kid. That's what he is. Another Balotelli just even less serious.
@@garymathe9863 and who is your preferred replacement?
Been a fan of Milan since 08'; even in the banter era I looked forward to the games, sat all the way through them. But, for the past month or so it's just different now; I'm not at all excited for the games, I'm just watching games with hopelessness.
Something's gotta change, the current model isn't sustainable at all, we need some inspiration. The obvious choice is Pioli leaving, but there are alternatives like including Ibra etc.
Hoping for the best 😢
It's a brutal run right now, especially against the bigger sides.
Again. We need to get some scouts to Rotterdam. Santi Giménez is the best striker right now. 22 years old and HUNGRY for goals 🇲🇽
Hi its Evan 😎 #forzamilan
You're already becoming a fan favourite! 😅
In my opinion, the match is finished for 2 Argentine, Pellegrino missed the head & Romero's foul in the nearest bar 😭😭😭
Coach made tactical changes after throwing in 2 young guys in one of the more hostile stadiums, this one's on Pioli!
Warning: Jonathan David is not a good idea, he is type of attacker who score a goal, after 2 big occasions.
I cant wait to be in Toronto and watch games with you guys!
Make it happen!
Pioli has got to his limit. He doesn't know how to rotate players.
Milan needs a standard coach. Pulisic is has the qualities to play as top striker while chukwueze is pushing and keeping the defenders busy , but he's keeping chukwueze on bench. He can't even transform players to different positions. I prefer Milan fire Pioli and replace him with Crespo or Marcelo Gallardo
10:11 i thought you said the guys in the crew would give the takeaways 😅
We need to cash in on Leao in the summer. I am done with his lack of teamwork.
I am just pissed 😡. On Milan's loss i would be nonchalant and try to take positive out of it and even after defeat to inter, i was trying to take positive from it. But this draw has really filled me with rage. Something seriously wrong in milan's dressing room, i feel a certain negative vibe from this team. I agree that Pioli has to go for the team to reach the next level but it will not be done by cardinale who thinks he is better than Maldini. I don't know kush why u give gerry cardinale so much when he is so much the source of problem for Milan starting with disgraceful firing of Maldini. Agree with the criticism of leao and Theo, leao especially looks like he completely gave up. There is a problem in his approach to scoring goals as he seems he is about to fall down. More than that he is not putting enough effort and his crosses has been downright bad. Theo has really gone down, i mean who doesn't know the proper use of his pace and his tackling has really been disappointingly shocking. Krunic is responsible for the first goal scored by Napoli, i mean why is yacine adli is being treated badly by pioli? He is much better than krunic and has far better passing accuracy than krunic. Last but not least, kush u forgot to mention another important thing, the frequent injuries to our players. Something fishy is going on in the milan medical centre, i mean why the players who haven't set foot on the ground yet are suffering from injuries? Whether it is okafor, Ruben Loftus cheek, kalalu who again got injured, the Milan Medical team are doing shoddy job.
Is there any reason Pulisic got subbed out at the start of the second half? Also Calabria should at least gotten a shoutout, this man held Kvaraskhelia really well and I think he should get recognized for it.
Pulisic was subbed off due to an knock on his adductor muscle.
thank you@@anthonylafleur6549
The big crowd kept the video to takeaways only!
Leao 😡 lack of empathy with the group is annoyin. When the team needs help he walks as if he were in a park . It's annoying to see him walk so casually .
As an American I am biased when I say this, but once Pulisic came off the attack came to a halt. I expected such from the right side, but it was on the left as well. Granted Napoli changed tactics, but Milan was not putting passes together, Napoli was putting passes together on the right side, thank goodness for Calabria, I have been defending him since the beginning btw lol Anyway I agree with everyone here we need to give Leao some competition I remember he was better after getting benched last season. Kinda crazy that I am expecting more from Pulisic than Leao at this point. He is safer in both defense and offense, you never know if he will put in an assist or cut in to take a shot. Also, he has a great lateral movement that sets off the midfielders and creates space for everyone. I would like to see Okafor up top, and maybe even try the CAM formation again.
Leao and Theo need two defensive midfielders to work with them. The way our midfield is set up now the drive from the left comes from Reijnders and those two are left out of it.
Reijnders has also slightly fallen flat now.
Giroud comments after the game sums up why Pioli is clueless, he said "after the first goal we didn't know wether we should attack or defend"
Like the coach should have worked on this with the players even before the game, if we score we do this, if we concede we do that, but Pioli clearly didn't
Damn i caught a stray from frank, kush thank u for setting him straight
😅
Except Giroud, Calabria, Pulisic, Tomori, all the other players were a disappointment. Leao has no involvement in attacks i swear he only knows how to go out on the wing, leao is not world class he is avarage, he will never be world class, he doesn’t have ego or ambition and not just him but all the players expect Giroud. They don’t care if they win or loose, the only reason we won the scudetto was Maldini and Ibra!!!
I think u meant “except” instead of “expect” right?
@@JasonB-rr4hf yeah, it’s autocorrect and i didn’t read it after, im gonna edit it rn
Rafa is going through a tougher run of form for sure, he needs to evolve as a player now.
@@AdiqueBrown pulisic clears leao
@@AdiqueBrown Pulisic played good against napoli but overall he is avarage too, they all lack motivation and discipline, plus noone has that winner mentality, npc players
I turned off my TV after Napoli’s free kick goal. Mediocre performance !
Nice work Kush
I understand that the players are not playing good, but the reality is that the fault comes down to the owners and the manager are not doing their job correctly.
Pioli can not vary his tactics😮
9:02 im a adelista 😅
😅
Basically the fact is, a lot of us want pioli out but pioli will be kicked out only at the end of the season if he will get bad result, but we all want Milan to get good result and good result = pioli get confermed for the next year, so is a big problem
Yeah, most likely Milan will make changes at the end - if they even do so!
U know what scared me the most beside Pioli’s tactical ability, his mentality as a head coach. I think he might lose the locker room after this match because of his substitutions of Giroud and Leao. Holy shit, we are in the mud big time. 😡
I think the guy who coaches atalanta gian piero gasperini should be the new ac Milan coach next season he works great with young players
Jonathan David feels like a huge gamble for the reported € fee. I would've said this in the summer too, not just now during a terrible cold streak.
We're biased, I'll admit it!
@@footballkush I'm Canadian too and it would be amazing. But....
Day after day my prediction of Milan going to the Europa league is looking like it’s going to get true
When we realise coach is least of milan problem it will be too late
David…….not sure he’d be good for Milan.
Benjamin Sesko!
We will be lucky if we can get top 4
The general hypothesis is that Pioli “has to go”, or “he’s not the coach to take Milan to the next level” - but has anyone asked themselves if Milan actually have a squad to reach the next level?
After his mid-season takeover in December 2019, Milan had the best record in Serie A. The following season, Milan reached 2nd and became champions of Italy the year after - not to mention reaching the UCL semifinals last year. He achieved all that with one of the youngest squads in all of Europe, comprised of slightly above average players in terms of technical quality, who are more injury-prone than toddlers.
MILAN FANS, take it from a lifelong fan, former player and a licensed coach: Pioli isn’t a top-tier coach but has greatly over-performed considering what he’s been working with - so BE VERY CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR when you say “he’s gotta go!” As always, Forza Milan!
I think there’s a knee jerk response from fans that has to be taken from a lighter standpoint.
Now when it comes to the coach, I think one of the bigger challenges is, if not Pioli then who?
Secondly, do I think Pioli is the guy for the European level, no I don’t think so. I think he regularly gets tactically outclassed against Tier 1 coaches and at a certain point, for Milan to become a Tier 1 side, they’ll have to recruit a coach of that level too.
@@footballkush Let’s assume that coaching is the problem - or as you noted “Pioli isn’t the guy for European level soccer.” Does that mean that Milan have a 21-man squad that IS good enough?
There are handful of top echelon coaches in the world of soccer today - none of whom would even think to align themselves with this crop of talent, not to mention budgetary parameters and guarantees for project continuity.
In a span of just 5 years (2014-2019) Milan had NINE different coaches, not including Pioli. Do we need to enter another of era of experimental limbo and unknowns? I understand everyone’s frustration with some of the results this year - but I don’t think that fans’ expectation out of this team are in sync with reality.
Oh damn you got a club in Toronto? I'm in Toronto. btw I'm an inter fan don't kill me XD
You're welcome to watch the derby with us! 😅
@@footballkush oh dang no hahahahaha
Theo just needs to rest, he looked so good in that first half when he was fresh. He's too old and sprints too much to be playing all game both league and champs league. Definitely need someone quality to spell him.
I know these guys want Pioli to be gone, but who can we bring in right now realistically that can replace Pioli? If the change at coach is going to be made it’s most likely going to be at the end of the season.
De Zerbi
@odano12 unrealistic maybe in the future but not right away. Hell not even in the end of the season.
@@marvin.a.flores pay his release call, we should prepare for next season from now
@@odano12 What makes you think that De Zerbi is guaranteed to bring Milan to the next level and win trophies consistently right now?
@odano12 even if that's the case look at his record, honestly Pioli has a better winning record than him. I'm not saying he I ain't a good coach but he is still young and a lot to learn. Now the question should we risk that?
Pioli's problem is integration too. younger players do not get enough minutes usually. What is he doing to Adli? The guy is clearly leaps and bounds better than krunic. Why does he insist on playing him?
These guys are ridiculous; it’s not like Pioli has Real Madrid galacticos. Milan is not a top 5 talent team in the world clearly. Fans act as if Milan has by far the best roster in Serie A…they don’t. So to hold him to a crazy high standard as if they are Bayern Munich in bundesliga is silly
Don't think the debate amongst fans is around Real Madrid or Bayern levels, the questions is, can Stefano Pioli take Milan to the next level. A level where he doesn't fail to win 6 matches in a row against big opponents or fail to score in 5 consecutive UCL matches which has never happened in club history - I don't think he is the coach for the next level.
@@footballkushthat could be the case, but I don’t think we know because he doesn’t have that “next level” talent nor depth on his team. You can’t demand him to do what he doesn’t have the tools for. He did a great job for 2nd psg game no? It’s also probability and math. Sometimes in these tough games you have a 50/50 chance of winning…sometimes if you flip a coin 5 times you get tails all 5 times…doesn’t mean anything is wrong with the coin. Sometimes bad fortune just happens.
@@footballkushalso my point is in the long run if he finishes top 4 in serie A that is not a bad season…that means he did a solid job…and just because he has a bad run in 5 games doesn’t mean overall he will be bad
Is the squad already on the next level?
Gooood question..
I'm sick and tired of Pioli's horrendous substitutions...
It's going to be a long season for the club and it angers me that Inter are just so damn good, 😭🙏
Inter have a been a season or two ahead of Milan though so tough to accept but it makes sense.
Not that good offensively, dude, just very defensively strong, rough-n-ready. I thought that Inter intimidated ACM. Next time, ACM better dish it back & keep the lid on.
Forgive us Americans for being a bit sensitive about Pulisic. We are very insecure when it comes to soccer, he is our baby, and we are still suffering some PTSD from the Chelsea experience. But I haven't detected you being overly negative about him. Especially when compared to the Chelsea channels I used to watch.
Pusilic? rofl 🤣
Bring zlatan back as a coach or something to fire up the squad we have no backbone
Pioli and his TERRIBLE game management and lack of overall tactics is 100% holding this club back from taking the next step, and holding back key players like Leao from developing into that next level. Unfortunately, i don't think Cardinale believes the same and i think Predictable Pioli will be around for a long time. Sigh.
These owners are going to be ac Milan downfall mark my words these players they bought aren’t ac Milan material
A Milan club with only 4 members? In Toronto? Wtf...
We get decent numbers between 10-20. Sadly we get bigger numbers 70-80 for the Derby.
'Some' members .. not all. 😅
As usual Pioli disaster class,Raf and Theo OMG🤦🏾♂️
Leao needs good bench time, go play playstation or something because even on PS I will be more serious in games, he is embarrasing this season apart few good matches. Player cannot be bigger than club, and who supports him and say he is best player are not real Milan fans and football fans.
Theo aswell he seem to just show up and put in average performances
First of all, Pioli needs to go. How do you sub Pulisic that was pressing and splitting the lines with passes. Running channels to create spaces? I texted my boys in the group chat on WhatsApp saying I’m glad that we are playing like this but I fear that Pioli will make a change and remove either Giroud or Pulisic because it is what he does. Guess what? He freaking removed Pulisic for a kid. Napoli now didn’t have any reason to defend anymore and they stated the torture. It was annoying to watch. Pioli needs to go man, he was lucky to get the successes he has but he’s not the man for the job. The only reason we are in champs is because of points deduction for Juve else we would have not even been guaranteed Europa which is a shame. You can see the players are no longer happy with him. Giroud was subbed for Jovic, I mean what the heck? This is not a game to bring folks in to test the waters. I swear Pioli probably bets on our games too.
He took Puli off because he had a muscle tightness and decided not to risk him. Definitely sucks, because you can tell the impact Pulisic was having on the game once he came off at half.
Luka Romero came to offer nothing
Just too green & a tad slow. Bit of nerves for him & it happens to young players when thrown into big games.
Pioli needs to leave and Reijnders needs a lesson in finishing. Right now Pioli is the biggest clown. We need a coach similar to Ancelotti or Capello, but who?
PIOLI OUT! LEAO OUT! NOW!
Musah is not ACM quality, the kid clearly has heart but has two left feet. I think we underestimated the impact RLC had on the midfield and we are suffering his absence.
"Two left feet"? His dribbling is one of his strengths. Also, he's just 20 years old and will improve with experience.
Kush, bro.... Cringy much?
