Among the many absences, Milan is continuing in good shape

The victory over Verona made Milan the 4th team in the 5 main European leagues to exceed the quota of 100 points accumulated in the championship from January 1, 2020, while the other three are Manchester City, Bayern Munich and Real Madrid.

It is enough to analyze the staff of the 3 teams that have passed this quota before the red and blacks to understand what an extraordinary performance Milan has had, which does not have many stars in the team, while the only exception is Ibrahimovic, also with 39 years on his shoulder.

Against Verona, Milan was halved, with only 9 players on the bench, including 2 goalkeepers and Tonali who stood on the bench for moral support because he was unable to play. Practically Pioli had only 6 players he could use and decided to make only one substitution, but it is not the first time that the team from Lombardy is in this situation.

This season the injuries have been endless, as Bennacer has lost a total of 19 games in all competitions, Ibrahimovic has not played in 17 games, Rebic has not been available in 10 games, Kjaer, Saelemaekers and Leao in 8 and Calhanoglu 7 games .

Today the Red and Blacks are in second place and will probably find it difficult to be declared champions, but with a young age group, without superstars and with so many injuries, participating in the Champions would be a trophy won for Milan.
