Former AC Milan coach Arrigo Sacchi gave an interview for the British newspaper Daily Mail.
Sacchi talked about this Milan, the situation and the possibilities of being able to hit an incredible Scudetto. Here are his words:
"'In Serie A, there are three contenders who aim to win the title,' he said. 'Inter Milan have Lukaku, Juventus have Ronaldo and Milan have Ibrahimovic. It is impossible for them to do well if they are not performing up to standard. Milan are different because (Stefano) Pioli's team are a group. They won even when Ibrahimovic wasn't there."
On the role of a well organised club structure:
"It is essential. Because the coach is only one man. If the team doesn't help him, he can't manage alone. If the coach wants to make things happen, he cannot expect too much, but he expects functional players who want to play the game. Try to imagine if someone suggested good comedians to (Steven) Spielberg. He'd reply, 'What should I do with comedians in a dramatic film?'
What football really means in Italy:
"In Italy we don't know what football really is. According to us, it isn't a sport because it has iron rules and we've gone through scandalous times. It isn't a showy sport because we are not interested at all in football as a show. So then, what is football for us? A social revenge, and with this we exclude beauty, emotions, entertainment, culture, merit, fun, all essential components. When you win in other ways it remains in history books, but not in people's heads. There is no evolution."
