It has been a season to forget at San Siro but a few bright lights have stood out as the Rossoneri look to cling on to qualification for the Europa League for next year

CARLOS BACCA

GIACOMO BONAVENTURA

GIANLUIGI DONNARUMMA

This was supposed to be the season in which a new AC Milan was born and returned to the Champions League, but the reality on the pitch has been rather different.Instead, the Europa League has become the can't-miss target for the Rossoneri, who currently sit sixth in Serie A and have a Coppa Italia final ahead of them against Juventus.The lack of progress in the league table cost Sinisa Mihajlovic his job, with Cristian Brocchi promoted to the top job on the back of his excellent work with the Under-19 side.A season to forget, overall, but there has been a few bright lights for Milan fans - vote in our poll to pick your Player of the Season for 2015-16!Carlos Bacca, signed for €30 million from Sevilla, is one of the few Milan stars to live up to expectations.The Colombian has bagged 15 goals in the league and another two in the Coppa Italia and should hit the 20-goal mark before the end of the campaign.Only Gonzalo Higuain has been more prolific in Italy in a season in which Bacca has established himself as one of Europe's top strikers.If Bacca provides the punch, Giacomo Bonaventura is undoubtedly the brains of this Milan team. The versatile midfielder has consistently impressed this season, contributing six goals and 10 assists.Whether playing out wide or in the centre, 'Jack' has proven himself adaptable to any system thrown at him and his versatility has proven invaluable.His form has him vying for a place in Italy's squad for Euro 2016, with Antonio Conte calling him up for the friendlies in March only for the 26-year-old to miss out due to injury.The great revelation of the season - not just for Milan but in Serie A as a whole.Donnarumma is accumulating record after record and Mihajlovic's decision to trust the 17-year-old (who was 16 at the time) with the gloves now looks courageous rather than desperate.Only Gianluigi Buffon and Pepe Reina have been better statistically than the Neapolitan and although his name is already being mentioned in transfer rumours, Milan plan to build the team around him.
