AC Milan 1988-1994 AC Milan 1990
|
Coach: Arrigo Sacchi, Fabio Capello
Achievements: European Cup 1989, 90, 94; Finalists 1993, 95 Key Players: Gullit, Van Basten, Rijkaard, Baresi, Maldini, Costacurta, Boban, Savicevic, Desailly, Albertini. Formation: 4-4-2 Arrigo Saachi revolutionised football by introducing the pressing game, in so doing he oversaw the most successful era of Italian football in Europe. This was continued by his successor Fabio Capello when he moved on to the national team. The team contained the most impressive defence probably ever assembled, a hard-working midfield and flair players up front. The first team was raised to greatness by the trio of Dutchmen that had won the 1988 European Championships. By 1994 the team had changed in part, with other high profile signings replacing the original star players but with largely the same defensive foundation. They surpised critics by beating a brilliant Barcelona team 4-0 in the 1994 Final. Maldini would go on to play another 15 years at the club and become a Milan legend. |
