After 6 games of the 2020/21 season AC Milan sit at the top of Serie A. The Italian league was tipped to be wide open this year, with Pirlo’s transition at Juventus, Conte’s rise at Inter, entertaining Atalanta, Napoli’s strong start to the season and Lazio securing a Champions League spot last time out. But it is Stefano Pioli’s AC Milan who is leading the pack.
What’s different about Milan this time out? What convinced the club to give their interim manager more time? How are they utilising 39 year old Ibrahimovic?
Alex Stewart finds out.

Dear Tifo, it is a dream come true that you've made a video about Pioli's Milan. I am a big fan of both your Channel and AC Milan, and waking up to see this in my notifications was like a child unwrapping his Christmas presents. Like all other videos this channel produces, I loved this video, because its well made and exciting, and the effort you've put into research can clearly be seen in the marvelous details that are in the video; they are also well introduced. I am a big fan, please keep up the big work ❤ (p.s I've only woken up, and I don't know if I've written anything badly, but it comes as a pure appreciation to your work :))

Man United weren't sure how much he would be able to offer post knee injury and they parted ways. Ibra knew he could play well again, but was certainly unsure about his future as well. That type of knee injury could end most careers, but he is Zlatan. So he went to LA for 2 years and now he's back to Europe looking better than ever.

Bennacer is our best player by far. He's ability to change direction. He has vision. Always looks for the forward pass. Great pace. He's defending is exceptional. The partnership with kessie works like a hand and a glove. Tonali lacks in so much. He has a lot of potential but so far he has never played 1 long ,1 through ball. Hardly ever takes on the defender. Doesn't ever look for the forward pass

I'm really glad it's working out for Pioli. With the way Gazidis undercut him and everybody else at the club with the Rangnick saga (even if he is very, very good), everybody seems to have rallied together and are finally playing as a team.
Pioli's on Fire, Your defence is terrified! 🔥
Great video. As a Milan fan, the past 6 months or so have been a dream compared to the last 6 or 7 years, but we've spent a lot of time playing with no confidence, and I'm praying we don't fall into that trap as soon as results don't go our way.
They were the team of my childhood.....the red and black resurgence is much appreciated.🔥❤️
Hey, here's a few topics that would be interesting to see a video about: - "The 12th man": how have the closed doors games affected the sides that usually get huge support from the stands - Why (and how) does Bundesliga improve players physically and tactically so much - Why is PL the only big league which didn't keep the 5 subs per game formula - Is it financially so crucial for UEFA to stick with these Nations League / friendlies in the context we know

Zlatan is such a strong personality and his teammates are young. The coach and management seem to be into him too. You realize it’s so much about football IQ. It’s not really talked about, but he’s such a naturally smart player.
i dont know what to say but thank you Tifo for posting this video.
This video originally appeared on manscaped
Video is spot on...we are still top at Christmas
Do a video on Ruben Amorim's Sporting CP. They are currently leading in Portugal's Primeira Liga. Undefeated, 6 wins in 7 matches and 19 goals scored to only 4 conceded. How after a catastrophic training ground invasion by a group of masked men which resulted in multiple players resigning/leaving the team, Sporting is finally on the rise again after acquiring Ruben Amorim from Braga for a total of 10 Million euros (now well above 12 M after missing the deadline in payments) one of the highest manager fees ever. Sporting changed their system to a 3-4-3 and with the addition of a few of Primeira Liga's best young players last season they are now at the top of the league for the first time in 4 years.
After years of suffering as a Milan fan, it feels refreshing to finally watch well played football. Still, I can't shake off the feeling that things will tumble down and we'll eventually collapse back to to the ground. Hopefully it doesn't happen.
It so glad to hear Milan moving in the right direction

Thank you! I really enjoyed the video, you took a clear picture of how they act when in possession - this was actually a great intuition by Coach Pioli and what allows the team to create loads of chances. Rotations is also a concept they are increasingly implementing (yesterday against Hellas they did it a lot). Another aspect that I consider very interesting is linked to forwards' characteristics and also to new signigns, all of them have 1 thing in common - ambidextrous and/or comfortable playing in different areas. It allows the team to create danger to the oppositions in multiple areas and raises unpredictability.
The advertisement at the end was quite cringe lol You could tell from the narrator's voice😂😂 Anyways good video as usual, Tifo. Loving it.

This is a wonderful video. I wish you'd talked more about the v v important midfield pivot. Bennacer's long balls and Kessie's engine like performances when pressing and carrying the ball. Also about our tactics when Ibra doesn't play. We don't play as much long balls then. When Rebic or Leao or even Colombo leads the line.
These guys from tifo are really enjoyable
Sporting CP have had an awesome start to the season, you guys should do a video about them

It's simple football done well, and hopefully it keeps going like this for them. It's been too long without AC Milan at their best.
Very good video and analysis, but you didn't talked about the most important player: Kessie. When the opposite team has the ball Kessie is the one that owns the midfield together with Bennacer, and brings the ball back to AC Milan and is able to protect it and give it to the wings or Chalanoglu. This is the biggest problem for the opponents. Against Lille (where Milan lost 3-0) there was Renato Sanches and a lot of strong midfielders who challenged AC Milan's midfielders and made them suffer for the first time on this season! That wasn't the only reason why they lost, but it contributed.
i think the most notable thing is that most players such as conti, calabria, calhanoglu, kessiè and others were playing so bad before pioli, the club was even considering on selling kessiè and one between conti and calabria but pioli made them milan's permanent starters. idk what he studied during lockdown but it's working
So interesting that this was done using spezia as an example. A team that just showed up a huge flaw in our team set up. Why do we get overwhelmed by the press?
If there is 1 team I fear in Italy just on the basis of their tactical strength and tactical flexibility, it is Stefano Pioli's AC Milan. I feel like Lampard would struggle to beat this team.

quality video
It is an interesting evolution for Pioli, when he managed Chievo and Bologna a decade ago he was mostly known for super boring, safety-first football. Then he went on to manage a host of other clubs and seems to have shifted his perspective with those experiences. Milan too keep evolving. A year and a half has passed since this video was posted, Kessie will soon be gone while Bennacer, Kjaer and Saelemakers have played less important roles this season. But others have picked up the workload.
Thanks for adding Pioli to your great videos. Pioli has been on the bad side of the game and happy Milan can be where he has the chance to climb up and form a real group from the dust.
Advertisements as good as the analysis
I am happy AC Milan is Back!
New right winger and some depth at centre-back needed in January. Thauvin + Kabak and lets challenge for that title. Forza Milan.
Im interested to hear what you guys suggest would be the ideal Ibra replacement when that time comes.
I would dig a video on Jim Curtin's Philadelphia Union's tactics this season, as they just won the supporters shield, with young American, Brendon Aaronson as a central piece before he makes his move to RB Salzburg. I think they do some really interesting things their midfield diamond.

Please do Frank Lamaprds Chelsea 20/21
While I do agree that Pioli has moved the needle of fortunes forward... I do also believe that Zlatan plays a giant role in that moving of fortunes as well simply because he's brought back that winning mentality that Milan is known for.. however Pioli isn't perfect and frankly I felt Rangnick would've been better but that's just me...
Ibra is almost just as important as Pioli. He gave the attack a new dynamic as well confidence and leadership. He needs an understudy and a contract extension for the sake of Milan

It hasn't worked that well this season as it did last season post-lockdown. Especially in the past few weeks we've been pretty poor. But nevertheless we haven't lost in the league since March. If the team can regain that form from June-August then we can be serious contenders.
