AC Milan hero Alessandro Nesta was expecting more from their winter market.
Nesta says the squad is proving itself short of depth.
I'd do a different transfer market," he said on Bobo TV. "They have to reinforce the bench, they're always the same and you can't go at 2000 miles per hour for two years. Pioli doesn't have players who come in and change the game. And then I would go all in on a centre forward.
Ibra and Giroud are now their age and in the 60th minute, after they also helped you in the pressing, you have to take them off. You need someone who will stretch the team and score.
It's time for the club to make an effort. After winning a Scudetto like that, you have to put in extra money or at least make it clear, saying we can't spend and let's get on with the boys."
On Milan's stuttering season, he continued: I believe that compared to last year the psychophysical condition is different. They always play like this, they always go to catch the opponents high and go 1 vs 1. But in your own half you have to defend differently, they risk a lot and stretch too much.
Last year they were defending forward as well, but this year they don't press as hard and so they get into trouble. They stay in the middle, in the midfield and you pay for that.
Now I think it's because of tiredness and physical condition, but in the long run their football is not cheap, what they do in the long run they pay for it physically."
