The 2024-25 AC Milan season was not exactly destined for success. The Curva Sud began protesting at the end of the previous season, and following the departure of Pioli, the all-important selection of a new manager was fumbled and then clearly a disaster from early on. Yet this management comprised of people who are completely inexperienced in their roles kept him for six months anyway. Then they hired the right manager, but too late to save the sinking ship. And to make matters worse, they further destabilized the team in the January transfer window. That was after Ibrahimović chased off our Sporting Director, of course. And I haven't even mentioned the disaster that was the mismanagement of the entire Milan Futuro project, who were relegated to Serie D. Amidst all of this was a constant stream of toxic, negative press that was never even addressed, and a series of season-changing referee calls. Not to mention the arrests, investigation, and trial of the members of the Curva Sud and the excessive punitive measures that were not only costly to Milan but demonstrated that Milan no longer have any political clout whatsoever. An eighth place finish and no European competition were just symptoms of a season of chaos.
