Under manager Massimiliano Allegri, AC Milan finished 2nd in Serie A, narrowly missing out on the title to Juventus. The squad featured key players such as Zlatan Ibrahimović, Thiago Silva, Robinho, Riccardo Montolivo, and Gianluca Bonaventura, blending attacking talent with defensive solidity. Milan displayed tactical flexibility, alternating between counter-attacking and possession-based play, and maintained consistency against most domestic rivals. In European competition, they reached the Round of 16 in the Champions League, eliminated by Barcelona. Domestic cup runs were modest. The season reflected a strong but transitional Milan side, capable of competing at the top domestically but lacking the edge for sustained European success.
