AC Milan defender Fikayo Tomori says Rafael Leao should've done better against Newcastle last night.
Leao fluffed a major chance during the 0-0 draw for their Champions League group opener.
Asked if Leao should've done better, Tomori said: "Maybe yes, but we know his qualities well.
"But in these situations, especially in open matches like this, you have to score. He knows well that he had to score in that action.
"But let's look ahead: I'm sure that on the next occasion Rafa will score."

Portugal players with pride and ego. People who believe humility is a cheating. My anger at leao is still burning fresh. I wish he should be benched for the rest of our matches in ucl. Big fool Leao

I agree with Tomori because that's the truth - Leao himself knows you don't miss such chances in such big occasions. Rafael Leao is a hugely talented young player and has got great future ahead of him. However, sometimes I see he allows pride (over confidence?)to get the better of him. Sometimes he wants to over do things he shouldn't and it costs his team. Sometimes he wants to be the big guy and refuses to track back when he or his team lose the ball, even when elderly players like Giroud and Ibra are running. I feel pity for the chances he missed, but the boy needs to grow and mature into the player Milan wan him to be.
