Liverpool’s win over AC Milan yesterday in the Champions League was pretty convincing, despite the Rossoneri’s strong start.
The Reds should have perhaps scored more than three goals and it was a bit of a let-off for Milan that they didn’t, especially with the club struggling to impress this season under Paulo Fonseca.
This has led to the fans and the Italian media questioning not just Fonseca, but also those above him at the Rossoneri. Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who is currently a senior advisor at the club, is in the line of fire.
Before the game at San Siro last night, the Swede had again referred to himself as a ‘lion’ and dismissed his critics as ‘kittens’.
And after the loss to Liverpool, Calciomercato have shed light on Ibrahimovic’s mistakes so far in his stint at Milan.
They state that the game against Liverpool was a ‘complete disaster’ and refer to Zlatan as a ‘kitten’ who didn’t show his face after the defeat.
More blame is placed on Ibrahimovic and the club’s higher management, saying that they are responsible for a mediocre summer transfer window and for leaving Fonseca in a difficult situation.
The report also mentions that removing the manager will not change too much, but it might be the only solution to a problem which needs some upheaval in the short-term. Things aren’t rosy at the Rossoneri, and Liverpool have added to the problems.
