Manchester United (5)2-2(4) AC Milan: 5 major talking points

#3 Milan finally have an identity under Giampaolo

Marco Giampaolo has AC Milan dreaming again

For the better part of the last five years, AC Milan has been a club in disarray. Having once ruled Europe, the Rossoneri are currently a pale shadow of their vintage best. They have lacked an identity and a planned footballing path.

However, that looks to be changing following the appointment of Marco Giampaolo as manager. The 52-year-old did an amazing job while at Sampdoria and his philosophy is already being left on this Milan team.

Against Man United, the Rossoneri set out to play from the back and showed signs of a side that know what they are about on the pitch. For the first time in many years, Milan have a clear pattern of play and should Giampaolo be allowed the needed time to build this team, he will definitely return them to the top sooner rather than later.
