Ex-Milan striker Maurizio Ganz wants “to see Fernando Torres, Giampaolo Pazzini and Giacomo Bonaventura together.”
The Rossoneri started the season with a 4-3-3 system, but the arrival of Torres on loan from Chelsea has forced Coach Pippo Inzaghi into a rethink.
“For a few years Milan have been a team with two faces,” Ganz told ItaSportPress.
“They combine this difficulty in defending, above all including individual errors, with this strong attacking instinct. This has been clear even under Max Allegri.”
The team are top scorers in Serie A this season with 10 goals in four games, but have also conceded eight.
Last night they fought back from 2-0 down to draw 2-2 at newly-promoted Empoli.
“They finished the game with a 4-2-3-1 system, which is a different tactical approach to the 4-3-3, but I want to see Torres and Pazzini together, hopefully with an extraordinary player like Bonaventura behind them.
“If you have such talent in attack, then it’s only right to use it, then seek the balance in midfield. Milan were quite defensive against Juventus, focusing on the counter-attack. They were criticised for that, but if it had worked just once then it would’ve been a different conversation.”
Torres found the net on his full Serie A debut with a looping header, so can he rediscover his form in Italy?
“Torres has done little in recent years, but I think he has the desire to get back to being the player he was,” added Ganz.
