So we can fight for two trophies and not just one. “This double commitment partitissime that count, according to Mihajlovic, can be a useful step to push the players to an aging Rossoneri:” Many of the guys in the team have never won anything. And I as a coach I’ve ever done. “Better two decisive evidence that one to test the personality of the team.

FOR PLAYOFF 6th PLACE – But without waiting for a possible double challenge with Juventus, AC Milan has already around the corner a heavy game: the Sunday afternoon trip to Reggio Emilia with Sassuolo, the closest team to 6th place occupied by the Rossoneri.

Mihajlovic joked: “We can solve the problem by making the three-man defense. So the president is happy.”

MENEZ BELIEVES THE CHAMPIONS – Jeremy Menez does not give up the idea of ​​conquering the third place: ” I think you can this run, the team has regained confidence, we have to continue like this road.

Now will tracksuits big games and what will happen will happen, “he said French in Milan Channel back then on the two goals against Alexandria that allowed him to get behind a difficult moment because of injuries. “It ‘been nice especially after a period as well, did not expect so much and are very pleased with the evening yesterday. Sitting still for so long for almost seven months is not easy, I could not wait to get back on the field. The company, President, Galliani, the staff and the players have been very close to me and for me this was very important. After the year did last season I wanted to continue, but I was firm and I was disappointed but there is a desire to return and do well and I have to thank everyone. “
