CDK has created so many chances as well, he is unlucky not to have two goals and a number of assists.

He could easily have had at least 4 more assists to his name by now, if only we had better finishing to complement his passing. Specifically his passes to: Tonali against Atalanta, Kalulu against Bologna, Messias against Napoli, and Leao against Empoli. A matter of margins, really. Had they shot at goal just a little bit to the left or right (to bypass the keeper), the naysayers would be singing a different tune about De Ketelaere.

The first two instances, in particular, would have been on our team's highlight reel for assists of the year. Very comfortably. Such were the quality of those two passes. They aren't passes you can teach a player. A player either has that ability innately, or not at all. For a 21 year old to be able to pull off and execute that level of passing is impressive. These are encouraging and promising signs ahead of what's to come. As I have said in the past, he's only operating at 70% of his capacity/potential at the moment. He hasn't really hit his stride yet and is clearly lacking good playing form and match confidence, which can happen to any player, nevermind a 21 year old who is still very early in his integration/adaptation process into a new team. There's definitely more to come from this hugely talented kid. Be patient. Give him some time to properly adapt, integrate, and settle in to the team.

I love it how when Leao has an off game, it's always "our RW is shit, he has noone to play wiht, has to do it all by himself"
But when CDK is in the top of the league in key passes / chances created / xA then suddenly assists is the only relevant metric, and the quality of finishing of his teammates (which litterally drives his low assist stat) is not a relevant factor.

That being said he was bad yesterday, but so was everyone else, so I dont get him being singled out so much.
Mind you all football fans are currently creaming over Leao on twitter.

Leao has proven himself. Cdk hasn’t. They are not the same

It's quite astounding that asking for patience even has to be a thing at this point. You'd think some fans would know better by now. Has no one learnt anything at all from Tonali's first year, or Leao's first and second years (and even a good portion of his third year) with us? Neither were where they are right now in their first season. It took Leao until his 3rd season to really become what he is today. If we expect all our new acquisitions, especially young players, to be instantly impactful straight out of the gate, then we wouldn't have Leao and Tonali (or Kalulu, Bennacer, et al.) in their present form to speak of today. Their growth and evolution as players weren't a given right out of the box in their first/second seasons. It took patience and time afforded to them by the management and the coaching staff to get them to where they are now (and there's still more to come from them in the years/seasons ahead.) Our fans could learn a thing or two from the people running the club at the moment.

De Ketelaere is right now really only in his 2nd competitive month of his first season with us, going into his 3rd. Let me repeat: *2nd month*. This is why so many people have been asking for some patience. And by people, I don't mean some of the forum members here. Pioli, Maldini, Baresi, Sacchi, Capello, current players (most recently Tonali), various ex-players (Ambrosini, Costacurta, Albertini, Dida, Panucci, Pancaro) and many football pundits (especially from Italy) have also asked for patience. They all have said as much to calm down and be patient with De Ketelaere. Give him the necessary time to properly settle in, to adapt and integrate to a new team, new teammates, new league, new coach, new football ideas, new country, new culture, new language, etc. Let's not forget too, his new teammates also need time to adapt to him. The integration process goes both ways. They have to learn how to play with him, as much as he has to learn how to play with them.

At the heart of it all, I feel it's really about what this club has become over the last few seasons since Maldini came onboard. You'd think some fans would, by now, have a better sense or understanding of what Maldini, Massara, and Pioli have been trying to achieve with this team for the past 3-4 years. Particularly for the long-term and in the bigger picture, rather than the immediate present. There has been a transformative sea-change across many levels in the way the club has been operating. Everything, from the recruitment approach/policy to the foundational aspects of the team building/rebuilding process. So much of it is a complete departure from the past and almost unprecedented. For one, I don't think we have ever been this strongly invested in and committed to young players in building the team's foundational core. If there's a single trait that perhaps best defines this particular incarnation of Milan under Maldini (and Pioli), it would have to be patience. You don't intentionally go out and recruit mainly young players to build/rebuild the foundations of a historic club without patience. The audacity of putting total faith on a bunch of youngsters to return us to the glory days and the summit of European and world football – that takes incredible courage and patience. Plenty of it. You need time for the players to properly integrate, grow, and evolve. You simply can't approach this with the short-sighted impulsivity and the restless impatience of an attention-deficit teenager, especially when it comes to the young prospect players that we're trying to bring through. You also have to manage and persevere through the growing pains that are inevitably part and parcel of developing young players. It's about thinking long-term and seeing the bigger picture, rather than the need for instant gratification.

Patience is key in appreciating or getting a better grasp of this long-term project. The vision and ambition/goal that they have for the team aren't going to properly bear fruit overnight, or even in the first season of introducing new pieces to the set-up. Every season we're bringing in new pieces to gradually complete the bigger picture in order to get us closer and closer to fulfilling the biggest of ambitions. These new pieces need time to properly integrate and adapt. There will be some growing pains, some rocky road bumps, some stumbles and falls here and there, before things start to click and come together. It's all an inherent part of the building and developmental process. All the young prospect players that we have acquired over the last few seasons are emblematic of that project and process. Be patient. Give them time not just to adapt and integrate, but to also grow and evolve. In time we'll see the makings of a team blossom into something worthy of our team's great and illustrious history and legacy.
Thank you for this. I thoroughly enjoyed it while sipping on my turk kahvesi.

Piolis defeat. You can't play vs Chelsea like vs Empoli.

Chelsea played average game. They just punished Milan's mistakes, nothing special. And still they won 3-0.

Imagine playing vs City with last night tactics. It would be 5-0 before halftime.

Pioli did alot of good things but in the league. I am afraid that he is not a good choice for big Milan and the CL. I hope that I am wrong, but...

You know that the very talented moroccan players in The Netherlands often don't make the cut? The large chunk hopelessly fails because of cultural clashes. Not always the fault of the moroccan. It is sometimes the coach. But when the stars align the moroccan becomes a Ziyech or a Hakimi and not a Mastour or Tannane. I like to think YF is a Taarabt.

That Chelsea game killed my mood for the entire week. Fuck that game. There are so many wrong things that happened in terms of tactics and man management. I hope Pioli and the players learned the hard lesson. Stay humble and go back to the drawing board. We not back yet.

Dest and FBT were easily the worst players on the field - as expected but no one anticipated such a woefully poor performance from both. Their shocking display destabilised the whole defensive game.

It was a poor night for everyone to be honest but Dest and FBT were just embarrassing.

Both of them don't have CL experience, and playing a team like Chelsea when you're not even a regular starter was always going to be tough. Hopefully this is a motivational game for them and they improve. But yes, terrible performance by both, defensively and going forward

Patience is the word, but it can take some time.
Maybe too long.
If a team as Milan wants to grow to an European top 10/top 5 team, you have to generate extra income by selling your best player if somebody put a lot of cash on table.
If Chelsea puts 100+ on table for Leao, just sell him, and buy 3 confirmed players for 35 each.
The fastest way to reinforce a team.

They are not the same, of course. But the players they play with are!!
If you can look at external factors for Leao due to his pedigry (100% fair), than why can't you look at external factors for CDK, when the data is scraming at you to do so?
(I dont mean you personally, just poeple in general)

Sure he is not playing fantastic rn and I can see some valid criticism, but im talking specifically about the whole "no assists" atgument.

Pioli is a very good coach in Serie a, he is limited in cl but a very honorable man who doesn’t complain. Mike and Theo are second and third best players on this team so let’s cut him slack.

3 points against Max please.

Leao has already 4 goals and 6 assists for milan this season. Even when he supposedly had an off game yesterday he still created that ballond dor level chance.

We can only judge cdk in his few matches for milan and so far he is not delivering AT ALL.
But you see, no one is questioning his qualities.. just how he is being wasted on that position by pioli

Tonali has lot to improve but he melts down a game when is on fire like that first half against merda. He is a winning player not some glorified game manager. Since boy is build like a tank I am not worried about him but pioli needs to change formation when half the squad is missing. Tonali can’t provide height to our cbs and can’t prevent Bennacer from gifting assists and fk near our box.
Tonali needs to start improving in the air and be smarter everywhere. He like Kessie covers a lot of area. We need better rotation for our midfielders or they will die at their post before Qatar games.
