No player wants to sit on the bench but in the end you can only deploy eleven players. It’s the tough duty of the coach to choose who will be the names to represent AC Milan in every match.
AC Milan are experiencing a good moment in the last two months with many positive results. However, despite the good period, coach Gattuso has limited himself relying only on a small group of players who play almost every game leaving on the bench big purchases like Andre Silva and Musacchio or veterans like Abate and Montolivo.
Rino Gattuso, when asked how he manages players who are used the less, declared: “How do I treat them? With great honesty, without words for the occasion, making each one of them understand that you have to train to the maximum, never give up. I tell them the truth. The important thing is to be seen present and closer to them than those who are playing as regulars”.
