Saturday, September 19, 2026 · 47 days ago
AC Milan manager Ruben Amorim was reportedly called in for emergency talks with the club's owner following their 2-0 defeat to Benfica in the Europa League.
The team's loss was a setback for the Serie A side, who are among the favorites to win the competition.
Despite having two wins and two draws from their first four league games, the team's performance has been inconsistent.
Amorim has been vocal about his frustration with the team's ability to adapt to his 3-4-2-1 system, an issue he also faced during his time at Manchester United.
In a recent interview, Amorim acknowledged that the team's players may not be accustomed to his tactics, stating that they are more used to playing with three defenders.
He emphasized that it's impossible to expect perfection immediately when taking on a new team, and that patience is necessary for the team to gel.
Amorim also expressed his passion for the club and his desire to help improve the team, despite the pressure to succeed.
He believes that his players are receptive to his coaching and that he remains hopeful they can overcome their current challenges.
