Jimenez in adversity: AC Milan 7 s opening game

Everyone knows that Santiago Jimenez has not started well this season. The main problem facing the Mexican striker obviously stems from his mentality - even if he scores on behalf of the national team, it has failed to change his struggles in AC Milan. In the match against Bologna, he missed the opportunity to expand the score twice, becoming one of the few disappointing links that night in the "Devil Legion". The fluctuations in his mentality were not only reflected in his hesitation after a goal kick, but also spread to many aspects of his field: the ball control was not stable enough and it was difficult to effectively promote the overall offense, although his dedication and sacrifice - as Allegri affirmed after his 1-0 victory over Bologna - were never questioned. However, expectations for the center are much more than that. Its mental imbalance is largely attributed to AC Milan's attempt to join the trade between Dorfbik and Rome in the end of the transfer window. Although it has not been done, this episode undoubtedly casts a shadow in his heart, shakes his confidence and even raises doubts about his own abilities.

In addition to mentality, the divergence of luck also made Jimenez's situation worse: in the first three rounds of the league, he had two goals blown up for offside in the centimeters (versus Cremonese and Lecce), and hit the post three times (once Parma and twice against Bologna). It can be said that the goddess of luck did not smile at him at the beginning of the season. But as all forwards have experienced it, perhaps only one goal is enough to dispel the haze and help him regain his own defeat at Feyenoord.

Now, Milanello is looking forward to Santiago getting back his mentality balance, regaining his confidence, and winning that indispensable luck again.
