During his player days, Brocchi had experience playing for both Milan teams. Regarding the upcoming Milan Derby, he talked about relevant topics in a slow-motion interview.

About the current situation of Milan

Milan is currently full of confidence and has a well-organized lineup. Although they made mistakes in some seemingly simple plays, it was the step they were missing to become a truly strong team. I'm very confident, I think they will always be in contention for the league title and are potential winners.

About Leo and Pulisic

Leo and Pulisic are full of confidence. They are important players in Milan's formation. They perform well and are very reliable. Jimenez failed to stand out with his skill and tenacity, which was a shame, while Leo and Pulisic seemed free-spirited.

As to whether Inter Milan is stronger than other Serie A teams

On paper, Inter Milan is the strongest. Even last year, they didn't win the championship. If you look at their squad, their core players and Chivu who impressed me, they are really hard to beat.

On who will decide the outcome of the Milan derby

Cheek.

About who would you choose if you need to introduce a player from Inter Milan to Milan

It is difficult to choose a name. There are 2-3 good choices. I like the combination of Italian players at Inter Milan and I would choose Dimarco, who was outstanding when I coached the youth team. The other option, if not Barrera, is Bastoni. However, my favorite is Frattesi, he is a very good player, but he has not yet established himself in Inter Milan.
