AC MILAN: THE CERTAINTY OF ANCELOTTI

/noticias.info/ Carlo Ancelotti has been talking to Milan Channel about the team, his players, what he is looking for after the international break and the national side.

'In the upcoming games we have to develop our play and become more consistent. Milan are ready for a jump in quality, then the points will naturally arrive.'

This concept is essential when Milan get back to action and Ancelotti knows that his side must start controlling games although it is too soon to start talking about the title. However, the number of injuries could be cause for concern such as Alessandro Nesta who is out for a number of weeks: 'We are disappointed about Nesta’s injury but over a long season this happens when you have players out. I think we have a squad that can cover it. We have the experience of Billy Costacurta to come in, Dario Simic is fit and then Jaap Stam prefers the central role.' Would Kaladze be another alternative? Ancelotti answered: 'He could be, he’s covered that role before I don’t think we need to bring back into that area.'

What Ancelotti does believe is that his side must think postively and said: 'Vieri and Gilardino must not worry, it’s normal when you change you have some difficulties. I think of Crespo and Nesta in the same period, then greats such as Falcao and Platini who had difficulties in their new environment and then really took off just as Bobo and Alberto will do.'

The discussion then turned to Pippo Inzaghi’s comeback: 'I am really pleased for Pippo, it’s never easy to score but he scored a hat-trick for the youth side and then didn’t feel any pain which was essential.' A word about the World Cup: 'Brazil are superior to everyone at the moment but if Italy can find its true form then they can make something in Germany, just like Holland, who with Van Basten in charge have found their enthusiasm once again.'

After the World Cup qualifiers, it’s back to league action, with a game at Cagliari which only gives Ancelotti a short time with his players: 'We’ll have to check the Brazilians, they might rest, I’ll play whoever is fresh and in perfect condition, the squad size allows this.' It’s certainly a group Carlo Ancelotti believes in. notas_de_prensa_archivo
