Zlatan, those who grow up around him, and certain figures that do not lie: this is how the Rossoneri can stay ahead. And if the favorites struggle, Pioli’s plans bear fruit …
It’s a Swedish story. Only one player in Rossoneri history has scored more in the first seven days of the championship: Gunnar Nordahl, 9 goals on two occasions in the distant 1950s, against 8 scored by Zlatan Ibrahimovic. It is an Emilian story, because, apart from the happy parenthesis of Massimiliano Allegri, the Leghorn winner of what remains at the moment the last championship won by Milan (it ran the 2010-11 season) there is no coach in recent years who the Rossoneri fans dream more than Carlo Ancelotti, and there are not many kilometers that divide his Reggiolo from Stefano Pioli’s Parma. Parma is also the beginning of the story of Arrigo Sacchi, the god of revolutionary Milan of the years between the Eighties and the Nineties. But Pioli probably has nothing to do with Sacchi or even with Ancelotti.
