Milan, Pioli on the future
Soon it will be time for reckoning: “We’re waiting for the end of the championship, then each of us will make our own assessments and take stock. There was certainly both positive and negative. The most evident aspect was the exit of theEuropa League and that month that took us away from Inter. They were more solid and continuous, we didn’t maintain that level. We are like all the other teams. There has been no middle ground in these 5 years. If I could change the outcome of the derbies I would give everything I have, but it can’t be done anymore. It was painful to see the opponents celebrate.”.
Pioli on Ibrahimovic, the dualism with Inter and Juve
Ibrahimovic in Milanello: “Zlatan is always close to the team, he gives us all the trust and support possible to overcome this moment.”
The dualism with Inter: “I think it was a mistake not to underline our progress in the Champions League last year, I don’t know what it depended on. However, there’s no point in hiding it, the fact that it was Inter who won the scudetto and eliminated us made the difference in the our environment. When Juve won and Milan finished fifth, sixth everything was ok, now that Inter are here everything is highlighted more”.
There Juventus: “It’s a solid team, which can find the play at any time with the strong attackers it has and the inactive balls. Leao will be captain tomorrow. Okafor And Chukwueze owners? they’re fine, then it’s up to me to make the choices. Turnover? At the moment I’m not thinking about letting people play next year, unless second place is assured in the next few days.”.
