Tough draw considering what Inter, and Lazio got. In all simulations, Milan was destined to be in the group of death. It could’ve been worse, no team is easy but at the same time no team is unbeatable here either.
Tonali’s homecoming will certainly be a story
Full faith in Pioli and Krunic … f** 🙁
We could’ve won the league and had an easy fixture but nah, let’s throw the season fire Maldini, overhype new signings, and call it a day.
Newcastle that’s some twisted irony of life. Tonalli must be like me, in tears.
