THE SUN ANNOUNCED: RUBEN AMORIM RIFT GROWS IN MILAN

Cold winds started to blow between manager Ruben Amorim and the management at Milan, one of the giants of Italy Serie A, at the very beginning of the new season. According to the news based on information obtained from within the club by The Sun, one of the leading newspapers of the British press, the black and red management feels a great concern about the tactical choices of the Portuguese coach. Having achieved 3 wins and 3 draws in the 6-week period left behind in the league, Milan could only find a place for itself in the 5th rank in the standings with the points it collected. Falling 4 points behind its arch-rival and current leader Inter in the summit race already constitutes the main source of the unrest in the club building. The team's understanding of the game on the pitch and the conservative attitude displayed especially after capturing the score advantage brought the management's patience to the point of overflowing. The fact that the Portuguese manager accepts the game completely in his own half from the moment the team takes the lead and takes on an overly defensive structure aimed at protecting the score is the target of harsh criticisms. It is considered unacceptable for a deep-rooted club like Milan, which always aims for attacking football, to invite consecutive point losses by sitting back instead of breaking away from the matches. The positions given to the opponents and the critical points lost because of the withdrawal strategy, especially in the matches expected to be won, caused Amorim's tactical competence to be questioned. It is rumored that if the young coach does not go for an urgent revision in his game philosophy, his Milan career could witness much bigger crises. The management clearly makes it felt that they expect a much braver and attack-oriented football from the technical committee in order not to widen the 4-point gap further. Fans also showing intense reaction to the pale football played over social media increases the pressure on the Portuguese coach more day by day. In this long marathon, it seems that the bill of every lost point will be cut directly to Ruben Amorim.
