Ruben Amorim has changed his starting lineup for every match since taking charge, and according to Corriere dello Sport, further rotation is expected when Milan face Lazio.
The constant tweaking is not restlessness for the sake of it. Amorim is dealing with three problems at once: managing workloads across a squad that is still catching up physically, embedding tactical principles that are new to most of these players, and reacting to specific issues that have shown up in each performance so far.
Against Venezia at San Siro, the defensive phase concerned Amorim. Milan kept a clean sheet, but the visitors found enough space to attack that a sharper side could easily have punished them. Against Juventus on Sunday, the problem shifted to possession. Milan struggled to create clear chances, and after taking the lead they could not hold the ball long enough to control the game and protect their advantage.
Each match has exposed a different weakness, and Amorim's response has been to adjust personnel and structure rather than settle on a fixed side. That pattern looks set to continue against Lazio, with more changes to the XI a real possibility.
The logic is straightforward enough: while Amorim drills his ideas into the squad at Milanello, match days double as live tests. As fitness levels rise and the tactical framework beds in, the expectation is that a more settled lineup will emerge naturally. For now, though, the next move belongs to Amorim, and he is still searching.
