But seeing AC Milan knocked out of the top 6 is quite rare. And even with a fairly large point difference, AC Milan is widely doubted by anyone at the moment. But even so, it doesn't rule out the possibility that AC Milan will be able to surprise and make Atalanta lose. But even so, I would probably choose Atalanta as I said before. Because I think a very stable team is quite trustworthy. Gasperini makes Atalanta improve from season to season. I like Gasperini's approach to building the Atalanta squad slowly. And the results make Atalanta's performance always stable and consistent. And this season, Atalanta could be at their best. both in Serie A and at UCL. But the problem is that it is very rare for a team to be consistent from the start of the season to the end of the season. Except for Inter Milan and Napoli who did it when they managed to become champions in Serie A.
I agree, Milan is rarely this bad normally and because of that we are not used to seeing them have this kind of result, it's not really that common to see Milan have a bad season. But sometimes every team has bad seasons and this is theirs, so it shouldn't really be a shock, we need to be used to this already, and not really be shocked about it, because it's literally what we saw so far and that's why I do not think that it would be that weird to see this happen again.
I understand people are having second doubts about Milan this season, but they are a huge club, with a big fanbase, and I am sure that we are going to end up seeing them recover quite easily and shouldn't really be ending up with staying like this, they will do fine.
