Amorim Criticizes Milan in Harsh Terms: We Must Improve

Milan lost 2-0 at San Siro to Ferencvaros in the Europa League. Speaking after the match, head coach Ruben Amorim delivered a clear message to his team: "We have to improve, or it's over."

Milan, who beat Inter 3-1 in the Derby della Madonnina, showed a completely different side a few days later. In the first half, the team could not even get a single shot on target. The Hungarian side took control through two goals from Lenny Joseph and created several other big chances.

After speaking to Sky Sport Italia, Amorim was even harsher at his press conference. Saying he was telling it like it is, Amorim warned that his whole tenure could be short-lived. He said he was defending the team and that he took responsibility for these words.

Amorim had earlier said that Milan were not ready for matches played three days apart. Milan have lost three of their first four Europa League matches and face the risk of an early exit. Amorim argued the problem was not tactical or about rotation, but a lack of mental preparation. He also said he did not accept that the starting XI was not enough to win this match.
