The Rossoneri coach does not emerge from the crisis, but closes the Leao-Hernandez case: “During the week I explained my intention and they accepted and understood it”
Il Milan in Fonseca he doesn’t see the light at the end of the tunnel and also against the Laziofor the third day out of three, conceded two goals and did not get their first victory in the championship. “First of all there are no problems with Theo Hernandez and Leao – commented the Rossoneri coach -, we are not creating problems because this week I spoke with both of them explaining my choice, which they accepted. I did not see that they remained on the pitch during the cooling break, but they had been on for two minutes and did not need to stop or instructions. The reaction of the players when they entered the pitch was positive, so we are not creating problems that do not exist”.
On the Olimpico match: “In the first half we did well managing the ball, controlling the pace and the challenge with the ball at our feet. The second half was completely different because in my opinion we stopped trying to play football. We always lost the ball in the left corridor, we didn’t have the courage to continue playing when they were pressing. For us it would be an advantage because it opens up spaces, but we weren’t able to play. The moment is probably not positive, in the players’ heads there is perhaps the desire not to concede goals but it’s not by stopping playing that you don’t concede goals” he continued Fonseca.
Two halves approached in a completely different way: “There is no lack of players in midfield, we lack the courage to play with the ball in the center of the field. We stopped playing when Lazio started to press higher, starting to set up with Pavlovic instead of with the midfielders as we did in the first half. The team’s intention has changed, playing a different game from the first half”.
