The former Cagliari head coach went on to comment on the fitness of their recently signed striker, and also remarked on the other strikers at the San Siro outfit.
AC Milan does not have many options on the striking front, as key players are out injured. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alexandre-Pato-c4901 is spending a spell on the sidelines once again. Pato’s fitness miseries keep on continuing and after the departure of one of their most consistent
players in the past few seasons, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Zlatan-Ibrahimovic-c38029, the onus is on the remaining strikers to make their mark on the big stage.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Robinho-c31382 has been extremely inconsistent and his finishing abilities have always come under question, as he continues missing half chances, and at times even easier chances. The Brazilian is spending time on the treatment table and the player will be taking
time to return to full match fitness.
That leaves three other players who can perform the attacking duties; Stephan El Shaarawy, Bojan Krkic and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Giampaolo-Pazzini-c14802. The former have not hit the ground running in their Milanello career; however, to be fair they have not had that much playing time
as well.
This leaves Pazzini, who arrived from rivals http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Inter-c39567 Milan, and scored a hat-trick on his debut for the Rossoneri giants. A lot is expected of the Italian international and there have been reports that the striker is not feeling fully fit to perform.
Massimiliano Allegri has dismissed such notions and stated that he had rested the player in the training session for him to return to full fitness. He also commented that the inclusion of the striker in nearly confirmed and remarked that he would be accompanied
in attack by either the Spanish international, or the U-21 Italian international.
Coach Allegri went on to comment:
“I took off Pazzini in training yesterday after 20 minutes as he had a problem, but I’m 90 per cent sure he’ll play from the start. He’ll be partnered by either http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Bojan-Krkic-c7794 or Stephan El Shaarawy.”
The Nerazzurri outfit would be facing off Atalanta on match day three of the Serie A, and would be looking to secure the three points.
