Stefano Pioli wants Milan to “shut up and work” after they suffered a 4-0 defeat at the hands of Lazio on Tuesday, which caused them to lose further distance in the Serie A championship race.
The Rossoneri suffered their first league defeat in seven games as Maurizio Sarri’s team led at halftime thanks to goals from Sergej Milinkovic-Savic and Mattia Zaccagni. Luis Alberto scored a third goal with a well-taken penalty, and Felipe Anderson added the final goal.
The Milan head coach feels it is time for less talk and more action from the defending champions given that Pioli’s team is still 12 points behind Napoli.
“Right now there are many things that are not working, mental and tactical aspects,” Pioli told DAZN. “I’m here to talk because I have to, we should shut up and work. I too will try to talk less and work more.
“We have to get back to Milanello [Milan’s training ground] quickly to work and work well, we’re not playing according to our possibilities.
“Things aren’t going well for us, that’s for sure. In 20 days we haven’t brought home any good performances or results.”
