Milan defeated the odds to win the Supercoppa Italian shortly after appointing Sergio Concei\u00e7ao, but their going has been seesawing afterward. The Rossoneri<\/em> have recorded three wins, two draws, and one loss in Serie A after the coaching change. They advanced in the Coppa Italia but also endured two loud defeats in the Champions League, versus Dinamo Zagreb and in the first leg with Feyenoord.<\/p>\n Per Corriere dello Sport<\/em>, the new boss isn\u2019t really on the hot seat yet, but the management had higher expectations when they pulled the plug on Paulo Fonseca. He and consultant Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who have fairly similar brusque characters, don\u2019t seem to have clicked.<\/p>\n Concei\u00e7ao feels to have been left alone, as was the case for the previous Milan manager. The front office isn\u2019t contemplating firing him in short order, but he\u2019ll have to regain their trust through the results. In particular, going through in the Champions League is pivotal.<\/p>\n The coach\u2019s future is in the hands of the hierarchy given a team option to extend his contract for the 2025\/2026 season. Mounting a comeback and making the top four would go a long way to ensure he\u2019ll stay.<\/p>\n In the meantime, the boss is ready to do away with his star-studded lineup, as it was too unbalanced against Feyenoord. He\u2019ll add an extra midfielder and pick and choose between his forwards.<\/p>\n It\u2019s normal dissatisfaction after an unexpected bad result, as it\u2019d be foolish to change the coach after retooling the team abiding by his requests in January. Things haven\u2019t gone great, but he deserves to be given the time to make the new squad work.<\/p>\n <\/p><\/div>\nOur Take on Concei\u00e7ao and Milan<\/h3>\n
