According to Milan News, citing journalist Fabio Ravezzani's comments on his personal channel, Ravezzani criticized Amorim's remarks following Milan's loss to Bologna, stating that the Portuguese coach should first lead his team to win matches they are supposed to win before talking about derbies.
Fabio Ravezzani stated: "Amorim's words are bewildering. This Portuguese coach arrived with an air of arrogance, saying things like, 'I'm here to teach football, and perhaps make some people jealous.' One needs tremendous audacity to believe such things – that in Italian football, within the Milan environment, someone would actually be jealous of Amorim's so-called football wisdom that he's instilling in Milan..."
"Amorim perhaps doesn't know, nor does he understand – and by the way, Cardinale didn't understand it either when he acquired the club – that he is currently managing a team that once won honors and spread its football philosophy worldwide. From Arrigo Sacchi to Carlo Ancelotti, these individuals have won the Champions League, won league titles, and are considered benchmarks for football and tactics globally."
"Then Amorim comes along and says, 'They're jealous of me because I have a completely revolutionary vision for football.' But what's the reality? Milan conceded four goals at home to Bologna, and before that, three goals to AFC Bournemouth. Milan has completely lost its way."
"Of course, you'll say: 'Yes, but Mario Gila isn't here, Rabiot isn't here.' These are facts, but there were capable key players on the field who could have won this match." "If Milan didn't have Pulisic, it was only because the 'genius' Amorim thought he should save him for the derby, and then the team was crushed by Bologna again. The first question should be: first, find a way to beat Bologna, and then see what happens in the derby."
"To be honest, for Milan, it's far more important to win against Bologna at home with the strongest possible lineup and secure all three points – after all, they're just three points. After that, even if they lose to Internazionale, it's acceptable, because Internazionale is objectively stronger. As a result, Amorim's 'masterstroke' caused a double blow: the team lost 2-4 at home to Bologna, conceding goals in succession; and on Saturday, they have to play Internazionale, who are clearly the dominant side. Fortunately, football has taught us that things don't always turn out as expected."
