Garlando's Skepticism: Ramos Guarantees Goals, But Can Moreira and Chukwueze Coexist on the Wings? Who Organizes in Defense? Will Modric Be the Same at 41?
Luigi Garlando, a journalist, expressed his views in La Gazzetta dello Sport, offering some insights on Serie A's top teams.
He questioned Inter Milan's favoritism, pointing to a hypothetical second squad that already boasts Champions League quality. Garlando suggested that while Inter has strengthened significantly, excessive confidence could lead to distractions, especially with the Champions League as a primary target. He noted that managing a large squad for coach Cristian Chivu won't be easy, and it's been a while since an Italian champion has successfully defended their title.
Regarding Juventus, Garlando praised Luciano Spalletti's influence in shaping the team's identity over time. He believes Lucumi will provide valuable support to Bremer in front of the new goalkeeper, Vicario, and that Kolo Muani will address the team's goal-scoring needs. However, he raised concerns about the midfield, where Locatelli is entrusted with playmaking responsibilities beyond his technical capabilities. Garlando also highlighted the positive aspect of Amorim's coaching, where everyone is working cohesively.
For AC Milan, Garlando acknowledged that Gonçalo Ramos guarantees goals. However, he remains skeptical about the team's ongoing tactical development. He questioned whether Samuel Chukwueze and Diego Moreira can effectively play together on the wings, and whether the defense possesses the necessary technical ability to initiate play. Furthermore, he pondered if Luka Modric, a year older and no longer shielded by a compact defensive unit, will perform at the same level.
