Yes, the ankle injury is quite severe it is estimated that he is absent for the next 2 or 3 months, this injury occurred during an international friendly against Colombia
It seems the manager is forcing him to play even though this match is not very important. this injury happened at the last minute he should have been replaced before the game ended.

^  I'd not be happy to have Pogba at my club.  What a drama queen he is lately.  He could be downing tools at Juve too if for some reason he's unhappy.

He is not being a professional player at all and he is gradually becoming very troublesome like Diego Costa used to be and if indeed he had a had in the sacking of Jose Mourinho, then he is a very dangerous person and can turn the entire dressing room against any manager, i would be careful letting a player like that into my team.

It is very inaccurate to compare Pogba with Diego Costa.
Diego Costa might be a special personality but he was really bringing results to the team. Pogba is a drama queen and he doesn't provide to Manchester United anything or he has bad performance. He has no right to complain.

Unfortunately, Alexis' appearance began to improve when on Inter Milan and he was even injured (again). when a player gets injured when their performance starts to improve he needs more time to find his best performance (again) when he recovers from injury. In this situation the team that loses the most is Intermilan because they just borrowed Alexis from Manchester United

I'd say that Inter Milan were the ones who got the better deal in the end because Manchester United are paying most of Sanchez salary even though he is playing for Inter Milan. He currently earns £500K a week and Manchester United will be paying  £350K a week with Inter Milan coughing up the remaining  £150K which goes to show how stupid the entire deal is.

But everything has happened, maybe the right choice was taken by AC Milan management to replace the coach.

Replace Giampaolo with Piolo actually not the best option for AC Milan. Pioli have better histories than Giampolo, but if Spaletti become an AC Milan manager, it will be more better. Unfortunately, Spaletti and inter not meet a deal. I think, Piolo will become the 8th coach was sacked by AC Milan very soon.

However you think it's not good or right about Pioli, it has become a legitimate choice. And also don't think fast for Pioli who will be fired later. He just started and hasn't had a match with Milan. So just look ahead, then we can judge later.

Emre Can Should change the team because he is very potential and strong in the midfield, I think he is not in the Sarri's game plan anymore but he has played a wonderful game in the international level, If he moves Manchester United then it will be useful for both of them. In the squad of old lady, some more potential players are on the bench, I believe Sarri will choose Aron Ramsey and Pjanic First and then Douglas Costa and Rabbiot will play as their substitute, so there is no chance to make a start for Emre, It's a not big issue for Juve but it's major concern for Emre because he is now 28 only, He has a lot of things given towards the future 

Sarri will most likely focus on two formations this season:
4-3-3 with Douglas Costa on the wing or 4-3-1-2 with Ramsey playing behind the strikers. This will depend mostly on the opposition and availability of players.

The issue with Emre Can is a complex one. Can was not included in the Champions League squad of Juventus and he felt like he was betrayed by the club. He made a bad media outburst stating that he was promised Champions League football and that he had an offer during the summer from PSG that he rejected because of Juventus. I believe that he hasn't played that much because he is being silently punished by the club because of his criticism.

Had he been a bit smarter it would have been much better for him.
Can was not included in the CL squad because Giorgio Chiellini was seriously injured and will miss most of the season. Another defender needed to take his place and Rugani did that pushing Can out of the list. UEFA also states that a number of domestic and homegrown players need to be part of the CL squad. Chiellini being an Italian was one of them, because of his injury another Italian was needed to take his place - Rugani. That is why Can was sacrificed.

There are two reasons why Marco Giampaolo was fired from his coaching chair.
1. There is no other choice
Milan must fire Giampaolo because there is no other choice. Because, things are not going well under his care.

2. For the Sake of Milan
Giampaolo is a good coach. However, they must separate for the good of the club "

Eight managers has been sacked in the last 5 years for ac milan and 3 owners has pouring money for the player transfer .. yet they are considered as a mediocre. Giampaolo only given 7 games which I think it's a bit rush to sack him with Stefano pioli as a replacement which I think nothing will changed , unless if the replacement is on a level of like Jose Mourinho it would more than worth to sack giampaolo immediately .

I was AC Milan fan boy back in the days ... 90's , crazy Italian clubs dominating Europe,  maybe it's just a cycle where in modern football english clubs and Spain clubs turn to dominate.

Giampaolo had all the time needed to demonstrate what was his philosophy of play and to apply it in the field.
Seven games are enough to judge the performance of a coach and it showed that the philosophy of this coach didn’t workout in Ac Milan.

What the F    7 games is too early to judge anything ... it seems everyone, every club nowadays badly wanted an overnight success, that's why. Just look at how ole gunnar solskjaer for Manchester United since 20 August having 10 games with 5 Draw 3 Lost and 2 Win only! And for the record last season they finished outside champions league spot, yet he is staying.

Give the manager at least 1 season or two to provide a progress then it's fair. I know giampaolo appointed as ac milan head coach 4 months ago still it doesn't count as 1 season or so, he managed the team to win 3 times and lost it 4 times, they should give him more time at least till this December.

But yeah here's the problem , they got 5 red cards in 4 games which it's crazy stats!

Yeah, it's a shame. Players need to 'play' smart in and off the pitch. Especially because they don't have any influence on who would be on the pitch after they stated some controversial stories like this. Joining a new club might give him a better chance to play regularly now. Problem is, who would buy a player that easily backlash his club in front of the media.

Maybe it's too early, but as you know, after AC Milan sacked Allegri, no manager can bring AC Milan to Champion league. Just Gattuso give us a little hope. But, he cut his contract, because he know, his target is to bring AC Milan to UCL but he fail. About giampaolo, i think pressure from AC milan fans is one of the reason why management sacked giampaolo.

This doesn't mean that Manchester United does the right decision to keep him on the bench instead of sacking him.
Milan fans are too frustrated as this club was on the top in the past and now they seem unable to secure a UCL spot. That puts more pressure on the board...

Apparently the fans (not including me) are calling out his head and the management only listened to what they want, what I am just hoping for is Stefano Pioli isn't like a band aid solution for Milan and they actually start to salvage the rest of the season. To bring some more hope Elliot Management has promised to add in more money for the transfer budget and I am seeing a lot of names already from veterans like Juan Mata, Mesut Ozil, Ivan Rakitic to a youngster like Carles Alena all of which are pointing out on improving the midfield of Milan. It's simple if Elliot will make the transfer budget big all of this targets are possible and I am really hoping that even if we have a unknown manager in European football we could at least sign a game changer for the season.

About Emre Can, if you don't know.
From next year on his contract, he will can apply a clause, any team can come to knock on Juventus's door and pay 50 m € to take him and Juventus will can't do anything.

Low price? Who knows, it will be anyway a good result for Juventus he was paid 0 from Liverpool.

Sanchez is under investigation if he need a surgery operation he will need to skip at least 3 months, Manchester will be very happy since they pay 50% of his salary .

Manchester will still keep paying those 50% of his salary no matter if he plays or not.

Regarding Emre Can, he did another reckless thing a few days ago. He and Gundogan (Manchester City) liked a photo of the Turkish National Team saluting the army. It is believed that this salute means support for the Turkish military actions against Syria that are taking place in the last few days.

You can see how serious it is by taking a look what happened to St Pauli player Cenk Sahin. He posted a photo of himself doing the same saluting and he was fired by his club the following day.
https://www.theguardian.com/football/2019/oct/14/st-pauli-cenk-sahin-turkey-syria

Emre Can really needs to calm down and keep his personal opinions to himself.

I think that there is something normal for Manchester United. Whatever Sanchez does, Manchester will remain normal and pay a 50% salary according to the contract agreement. The one who feels the loss is inter, because of the surgical operation. He will be absent and not contribute to inter for 3 months.

^  I'd not be happy to have Pogba at my club.  What a drama queen he is lately.  He could be downing tools at Juve too if for some reason he's unhappy.

He has been there before and he is no drama queen,  Pogba will be a big plus for Juventus,  imagine the combination of Matuidi,  Pjanic and Pogba in midfield,  that's gonna be really awesome

Thank you @FlamingFingers
What you say, it's true. I also think that Pogba will add to the ammunition that Juventus have now. That is why Juventus have ambitions to repatriate Pogba again. So that Juventus can be even stronger in the middle line in particular.

Manchester United knows the benefits of Pogba in their squad that is why they don't wanna release him to another club so easily,  if they are not interested in him they would have done what they did to Lukaku,

Now is official, Sanchez according to "La Gazzetta Dello Sport" got an surgery operation.

The positive estimation date for his comeback is Christmas, I doubt he will back that soon.

If it's really Natak to come back, I think 2+ months is a long time. That will leave many matches behind for Sanchez. Very hopeful, when returning from surgery "Sanchez" did not lose his best appearance. And Christmas can directly play for inter, not just being a backup.

I am sure that he is going to need some weeks after his first appearance on the pitch after the surgery.
He will not be in form so it would be hard for him to find his pace as it was before getting injured. He would be a powerful tool for Inter after returning back though.

first they were talking about a deficit of ~90mil, but AC Milan's deficit is 140mil
is the worst financial statement of AC Milan ever.
