Here’s why AC Milan are still the only unbeaten team in Europe

In what has been a remarkable turnaround for Stefano Pioli’s AC Milan, the team have managed to stay unbeaten for 14 games in Serie A this season, and are currently the only unbeaten team in Europe’s top five leagues (excluding European competitions). 

In an even more impressive way, they have managed to keep a hold of their position at the top of the Serie A table, a point clear of city rivals Inter Milan, who have done a remarkable job under Antonio Conte so far as well, and will be even more focused on the Scudetto with no European competitions to participate in.

The arrival of Zlatan Ibrahimovic from the MLS has been a key factor in the Rossoneri’s success since the get-go this season. The 39-year-old’s leadership skills and dominance in the locker room has been a key factor in getting the best out of all the players. 

Hakan Calhanoglu has also been a major influence on Milan’s triumph going forward, with the Turkish midfielder providing 6 assists, and a commendable pass accuracy of 84% in the league.

Portuguese forward Rafael Leao has also been a major revelation this season, having scored and assisted three goals each so far this season. 

One of the most underrated aspects of AC Milan’s game is the tremendous work rate of the full-backs, Theo Hernandez and Davide Calabria. Hernandez is a threat going forward, as well as resolute in defence, scoring 4 goals and providing 3 so far. The left-back is one of the most underrated players in the continent right now.

Lastly, but surely not least, the presence of Gianluigi Donnarumma between the sticks is also one of the Rossoneri’s greatest assets, with the 21-year-old being heralded as the best keeper in the league despite his young age. The Italian number 1 has a save percentage of 72%, which is by far the best in the League. 

Whether Milan manage to finally break Juventus’ stronghold on the Scudetto is something that still remains to be seen, given that a fair portion of the season is yet to be played. However, they must remain on their toes to get the best out of every match that comes their way for a title winning season, or a return to the Champions League at the very least.
