Milan teen Donnarumma youngest keeper to start Serie A match

Lopez has, however, declared that he’s not thinking about a transfer and that he will let what he does on the pitch do the talking, whilst the Lombard club’s vice-preisdent, Adriano Galliani, has stated that the 33-year-old must respect Mihajlovic’s decision.

“Relaxed? No. Satisfied, yes, I am”, Mihajlovic said. Today he was very busy. “I don’t want controversy over the goalkeeper, Diego [Lopez] is an important goalkeeper, but in recent weeks we have not seen the best of him and I preferred to change it. We’ll see what happens next week”.

Deposed keeper Lopez also spoke about the youngster after the match and appeared magnanimous, saying: “The game seemed to be going downhill after the penalty but it didn’t”.

I thought Donnarumma play well.

That poor form looked set to continue when Domenico Berardi’s outstanding free-kick levelled proceedings shortly after the interval, with Carlos Bacca’s penalty having given Milan the lead on the half-hour mark. This is a team that gives away goals and will and scores them just as easily. “These games you have to win with your heart, as well as the tactics and technique”.

As for the latest news about the initial formation, we should have Bacca from the start, leading the offensive line and supported by Bonaventura and Cerci, even if the Honda option is still on the table and it should not be ruled out (or at least, many supporter do hope so).

Under Mihajlovic, Milan have lost four of nine Serie A outings but moved into the top half on Sunday ahead of the visit of Chievo, who have not beaten Milan in nearly 10 years. I’ve told the lads that we need to learn how to get results.
