"In the latest edition of Pub Chat, Lorenzo and Stefano delved deeper into Milan's evident lack of a striker, especially since Santiago Gimenez has now been out for quite some time with an injury. The 2-2 draw against Sassuolo gave us quite a few takeaways, as we highlighted in our usual five things we learned piece, and one of them was definitely the lack of depth. Once again, Max Allegri didn't really have any attacking weapons on the bench."
"Instead, Sassuolo won the 'substitute battle' by bringing on Armand Lauriente, who caused havoc for the Milan defence with a goal and then a shot that hit the post. In other words, a newly-promoted side had better options than the Rossoneri on the bench. In the latest Pub Chat episode, this is exactly what Lorenzo and Stefano discussed, highlighting what will be needed in January and how Milan should approach the Santiago Gimenez situation. The Mexican has been MIA lately and it's hurting his team. There is a 10-minute preview of the episode available completely for free below.

AC Milan suffers from a pronounced shortage of strikers and attacking depth, worsened by Santiago Gimenez's extended injury absence. A 2-2 draw with Sassuolo highlighted the scarcity of effective attacking substitutes available to Max Allegri. Sassuolo's Armand Lauriente made a decisive impact off the bench, scoring and nearly adding another, showing superior substitute options from a newly-promoted side. Milan requires January reinforcements and a clear plan for Gimenez to restore attacking options and bench quality. The current lack of attacking alternatives is directly affecting results and demands urgent action in the transfer market.
