"Sad to see Milan in this state", harsh Sacchi talks about the

After the disappointment in the Coppa Italia final, Arrigo Sacchi commented on Milan's poor season for "Gazzetta dello Sport":

"Seeing Milan in this state gives me great sadness, because I am connected to that environment, to the fans, to those colors. Watching the Coppa Italia final, deservedly lost to Bologna, I received confirmation of what I thought at the beginning of this season: Milan is not a team."

About the club : "President Berlusconi, when he took me, told me that his goal was to win and convince. He wanted Milan to put on a show, to entertain people. He had an idea and knew how to convey it to his collaborators. Do you think that today's Milan, as a club, has any ideas? It seems to me that not."

On the choice of coaches : "The choice of coach at the beginning of the season is essential. Milan, last summer, initially thought of hiring Lopetegui, but then, after the fans got angry, switched to the Portuguese Fonseca. Those who made this decision made a big mistake. In the middle of the season, they changed their mind and entrusted the bench to Sergio Conceiçao, who in my opinion is less guilty than anyone, because he found himself in total chaos. And in the end, you will see that it is he who will pay, because this is an old and absurd law of football: fire the coach and pretend that everything is fixed."

On the transfer market and the team : "Milan is a mixture of players who are taken without criteria. I'm not discussing their individual technical qualities, although I could. The problem is that they are not elements that form a team. They are bought from abroad and honestly I don't understand why; players with completely different experiences and cultures come. It takes effort to adapt them, but in this way how can you create a style of play".
