AC Milan manager Massimiliano Allegri shared his thoughts after the Rossoneri secured a commanding 3-0 victory against Bologna in a Serie A 2025/2026 clash at the Stadio Renato Dall’Ara early Wednesday morning. Despite the impressive win, Allegri emphasized that his team still has room for improvement.

Milan Dominate Bologna Away

In the match, Milan’s attacking trio proved decisive as Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Christopher Nkunku, and Adrien Rabiot all found the back of the net. The comprehensive victory not only brought three points to Milan but also demonstrated the team’s potential when firing on all cylinders.

“I think we played well tonight,” Allegri remarked.

While pleased with the scoreline, the manager was quick to point out that Milan’s performance was not yet at its peak. There were still elements in their game that needed refining if they want to maintain consistency against tougher opponents.

Focus on Improvement

“Even though we won convincingly, I believe we can still play much better,” Allegri said. “We need to control the ball more effectively, deliver precise passes, and make smarter decisions on the pitch.”

He stressed that addressing these areas would allow Milan to compete successfully against any team in Serie A. Allegri’s focus on tactical discipline and decision-making underlines his long-term vision for the squad.

Praise for Loftus-Cheek and Nkunku

Allegri also singled out two midfielders for special praise: Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Christopher Nkunku. Both players were instrumental in Milan’s attacking play, contributing goals and creating opportunities.

“Loftus-Cheek and Nkunku performed exceptionally tonight,” he said. “Their movement and positioning allowed us to find gaps in Bologna’s defense and control the ball effectively in key moments. Their contributions were crucial in securing the three points.”

The manager highlighted that their off-the-ball intelligence and attacking creativity were central to Milan’s dominant performance on the road.

Looking Ahead: Next Fixture

Buoyed by the victory in Bologna, Milan are now preparing for their upcoming Serie A match against Pisa, which is scheduled for the weekend. Allegri stressed the importance of maintaining focus and continuing the momentum as the Rossoneri aim to collect another three points.

“This win gives us confidence, but we must continue improving and remain concentrated for our next challenge,” he added.

Milan fans will be hoping that the team can carry their strong form into the upcoming fixtures, keeping them firmly in contention at the top of the Serie A table.
