Last season ended in disappointment for AC Milan as they missed out on a Champions League place on the final day of the season.
The club were dealt a further blow when they were ruled out of the Europa League for next season due to Financial Fair Play breaches.
Now it is time for a fresh start. Failure to achieve a top four finish cost Gennaro Gattuso his job, with Sampdoria manager Marco Giampaolo succeeding him. Gattuso largely relied upon a 4-3-3 system during his tenure, whilst Giampaolo can be expected to play a 4-1-3-2 formation moving forwards.
