AC Milan's physical, well-rounded midfield favourite Boateng opened the shot, detailing the Rossoneri's superiority over the Gunners: "I'm not afraid of Arsenal, we're not afraid of Arsenal, they play a game that lacks balance. They can play amazing football in one game and then play pretty badly in the next. It comes down to being because they're not consistent enough and they're too reliant on Shaw's performance a lot of the time. But you have to know that at the San Siro he doesn't have as many chances to hit our goal, he will have the toughest defence. ”

'If you want to qualify for the last four or even the final of the Champions League, you need a lot of experience. That's what Arsenal are lacking, they are inexperienced, Milan are experienced, and that's what they need to learn from Milan. Although they have been in good form over the last two seasons and they are certainly very competitive, there is no doubt that our squad is more reasonable. "Boateng is indeed full of confidence, AC Milan won the league last season, AC Milan won the championship and broke the monopoly of Inter Milan on Serie A since 2006; They are now full of confidence, because the current AC Milan is gradually out of the throes of blood change.

Three or four years ago, AC Milan were in decline, but now, four years later, the Rossoneri have recovered and they don't have to fear any opponents at all, they are now competitive.

The first leg of the Champions League quarter-final against Arsenal is about to begin, which may be the most important game of the season for AC Milan, after all, after winning the league last season, but the Champions League defeat in the round of 16 has become AC Milan's biggest regret. The Rossoneri have also said on several occasions this season that the Champions League will be their main task.

On the eve of the Great War. A series of good news can indeed give Milan a lot of confidence. Last round of the league. The Rossoneri beat Udinese away in the twenty-third round of Serie A. While AC Milan have struggled with a large list of injured players, the Rossoneri's injury problems have now been significantly alleviated. Pato, Boateng, Nesta and Flamini, the injury number that runs through Milan's central axis, have all returned to training a few days ago, and AC Milan are sure to welcome Arsenal with the strongest squad.

"Away goals are really a feature of the European football format. I think we'll try to get the first start at the San Siro and that will be good for the rest of the game. "Arsenal, who finished first in the group, came to the opponent's away game first. This is the benefit of being the top of the group, although this benefit is very depressing for Arsenal, but the schedule of the away team and then the home team is indeed more favorable, and the head coach of Arsenal is also looking forward to this away trip.

If Arsenal can score at the San Siro, then Milan will also be forced to attack with all their might in the second leg, leaving more opportunities for the Gunners to counter-attack.

Arsenal's goal is to score away at the San Siro and win the game; Don't look at the current AC Milan players showing full confidence, but their competitiveness is still a little bit behind Arsenal. Because Arsenal are now the reigning champions of the Champions League, and because Arsenal can stand out in the most competitive Premier League, it may seem that AC Milan's squad is more reasonable. But Arsenal can guarantee that they will be more impactful.

In fact, Arsenal's players also have enough psychology to usher in the showdown between AC Milan and Arsenal. If AC Milan want to survive February's "devil's schedule", they must first overcome "Anglophobia". In the last three Champions League knockout rounds, AC Milan was eliminated by Premier League teams, and each time they lost at home, as if suffering from "Anglophobia", and the initiator was Arsenal.

As for Arsenal, they are really no strangers to Serie A teams; Although Serie A is known for its reinforced concrete defence, Arsenal's players have long been taught, having met Inter Milan in the knockout rounds in the last two seasons, and Inter Milan at that time could be said to be in full swing. However, Arsenal won the most of those games because they were even better and because their attacking talent was incredible.

It's a contest of different styles of football, Italian football is more precise, but England is not so complex and is based on passion and rhythm; Italian teams are known for their defense, and AC Milan's backline is also quite good. But Arsenal are known for their attacking firepower and now their attacking firepower has shocked everyone.

Going to the San Siro Stadium, this is definitely not an easy game for Xiao Qing and his teammates, because AC Milan does have a certain amount of capital to choose arrogance. But the Arsenal players are more confident that they have to tell the Rossoneri who is the best team at the San Siro, and the Arsenal players have to tell the Rossoneri players at the San Siro that the Gunners can defend the Champions League because they are exceptionally good!

Arsenal have been in good form in the past period, their performance in January is still full of surprises and expectations, and Arsenal have not been affected by too many Christmas devil fixtures, they have gradually found a winning feeling. Although they encountered some minor twists and turns in the process, the excellent adjustment ability of Arsenal's players has made more people now feel admiration for Arsenal's mature performance.

Arsenal are in good form right now, and the past period has undoubtedly been sweet for AC Milan, who have conquered the Friuli Stadium, which has never been beaten this season, and dealt a heavy blow to their direct rivals and temporarily surpassed Juventus to the top of the Serie A table with two games less.

Both teams are in great form right now, and they are also the leaders of their respective leagues; When two strong teams meet in the knockout rounds of the Champions League, it is natural that it can lead to a wonderful and intense match like Mars hitting Earth. Arsenal and AC Milan both have big ambitions for the Champions League this season, and they will naturally be hoping to do even better at this time.

For both Arsenal and AC Milan, it is a morale-boosting event to be able to beat their opponents and advance to the quarter-finals of the Champions League; Although the players of the two teams also had a big war of words before the game, they revealed that they did not look down on the performance of the opponent, but they also knew that the opponent's strength was very competitive, and this was definitely not an easy opponent to win. If you want to win the game, then you naturally need to put in more effort.

At the San Siro Stadium, where more than 80,000 fans are located, Arsenal's momentum may be down, and the current AC Milan fans are completely enthusiastic about this game; Although the reigning Champions League curse has been broken by Arsenal, AC Milan fans are absolutely unconvinced that Arsenal can continue to dominate in the Champions League this season, and it is time for Arsenal to be eliminated from the Champions League.

The atmosphere at the San Siro stadium is very hot, and the Rossoneri fans are also looking forward to the Champions League; AC Milan are arguably the best of the best clubs in Europe, but their performance in the Champions League has been sluggish in the past few seasons, which has also made them quite aggrieved. Now that AC Milan has completed the team change, and now their strength is constantly recovering and improving, then as a team with a brilliant record in the European competition, it is time for them to show more competitiveness at this time.

On February 16, Arsenal travelled to the San Siro Stadium to start the Champions League quarterfinals, in the two legs of the knockout round, at this time can not have any carelessness, at this time once there is any relaxation, then it may pay a huge price, a painful price. The two legs of the game seem to have a certain amount of capital to make up for some mistakes, but this is definitely playing with fire, and if you want to go further in the Champions League, you need to be more consistent.

Arsenal's starting line-up has not changed much, except for Mertesacker's unexpected injury in the previous league game, Arsenal really have nothing to change, because they are in good form, they don't need to make changes at all, they just need to make sure that their tactics are the best way to win the game.

goalkeeper Szczesny; On the back line, from right to left, are Sagna, Koscielny, Vermaelen and Alaba; The combination of the midfielders is Alexander. a combination of Song, Arteta, Walcott and Cazorla; The forward line is a combination of Xiao Qing and Van Persie without any suspense.

AC Milan, which is sitting at home, naturally tried its best to win in this game, goalkeeper Abbiati; On the back line are Abate, Mex, Thiago Silva, Antonini; In midfield, Seedorf, Van Bommel, Nocerino and Boateng were available; The forward line also looks like a luxurious combination of Ibrahimovic and Robinho.

The line-ups of both teams are really good, and it may seem that AC Milan have a more balanced line-up, but Arsenal's advantage is also obvious, their attacking combination in central midfield is super hot, and they have enough confidence to get the best win in the game.

It is definitely not easy to win the game, and this big battle is also imminent; The players in both teams are calm and it takes enough mental quality to win a game like this, and the players in both teams look doing very well at the moment. (To be continued......)
