AC Milan faces scrutiny over tactical direction and player performance

AC Milan's recent transfer window and tactical direction under manager Ruben Amorim are facing scrutiny from analysts and former players. While Mario Gila has been praised by journalist Alessandra Gozzini as a high-performing, solid defensive addition, other high-profile signings are under debate.

Gonçalo Ramos, the club's most expensive signing from PSG, has drawn mixed reviews due to his low goal tally. Former goalkeeper Emiliano Viviano suggested that Ramos's effectiveness is limited by the team's ball possession, noting he would thrive in a system more similar to Juventus. Similarly, former defender Fulvio Collovati remarked that Ramos is not a traditional '20-30 goal' striker but rather a player who contributes to build-up play and team structure.

Journalist Luca Serafini noted that Amorim appears focused on establishing a core starting eleven to shape the team's philosophy. Amidst these tactical adjustments, club owner Gerry Cardinale has reportedly become more hands-on in overseeing the club's operations following recent challenges.
