Albertini: The magic flute is like Pirlo; Milan is difficult to compete for the championship, but it must be aimed at it

September 23: Veteran Modric performed well after joining AC Milan. Milan legend Albertini compared the Magic Flute with Pirlo and talked about the future goals of the Ross and Blacks.

Albertini said: "Modric brings peace and stability to the team. Only great players who perform well in this position can make their teammates perform at an unexpected level. With Modric, everything has become simple, whether for young players or new players of the team.

"Modric should not chase down the opponent, but should guide the direction for his own game. Milan's midfielder should find him and he will command the pass. You can't ask Modric to have the physical fitness of a 20-year-old player to run for 90 minutes, but with his foot skills, he can still change the game.

"The contrast between him and Pirlo is natural, and it is no coincidence. They were both attacking midfielders at first, and then gradually retreated to serve the team better as their careers went down. Previously, midfielders like Platini and Gianini were usually protected by midfield teammates and were active in high positions.

"Later, players like Ancelotti and myself were placed in the middle, both as defensive and as playmakers. Pirlo changed football in this role, and Milan now has another champion player who is active in front of the defensive line.

"Milan is hard to compete for the Serie A title now, but they have to fight for it. When you put on the red and black jersey, you have to aim at the highest goal, and also understand what you will lose next season if you fail to achieve your goal. No one can predict the changes in the season, but the performance these days has proven that the Ross and Blacks can stay at the forefront of the league.

"Alegri knows how to win the game and knows how to build a team. If you have a united team that matches the coach’s tactical ideas and executes them smoothly, it will be easier to pass on your philosophy. In the match against Bologna and Udinese, I saw a team with clear ideas. ”
