Sacchi on where Milan, Inter, Juventus and Roma must improve

Legendary coach Arrigo Sacchi casts his eye over the 2022-23 Scudetto race, identifying what Milan, Inter, Juventus and Roma must improve to take the title.

The Rossoneri upset the odds last season by winning the Serie A title, despite trailing to Napoli and Inter for much of the campaign.

It was their first Scudetto in over a decade and achieved on a limited budget compared to their rivals.

“Milan play a European style of football,” Sacchi told La Gazzetta dello Sport.

“If Stefano Pioli’s lads do not lose their humility, then they will challenge to the end for the title again this season.

“Inter will too, but the Nerazzurri have to learn to play as a team with all 11 players together, otherwise they can’t be efficient in the pressing or possession phases. Romelu Lukaku and Lautaro Martinez need to help out defensively.”

Juventus have reinforced with the arrival of Paul Pogba, Angel Di Maria and Gleison Bremer, while they are in talks for Leandro Paredes and Filip Kostic too.

“The Bianconeri lost a little motivation last season, but I think they will go back to making their mark,” continued Sacchi.

“Watch out for Roma, because Jose Mourinho is a very experienced coach who knows how to motivate his group. The danger for Roma, as always, is excessive euphoria.”
